Kraków

FLEW to Poland yesterday for a congress in Kraków that starts today and runs through Saturday July 2.

There are three main tournaments, and I am in the middle one, which is for players rated U2200.

The time limit is 40 moves in 90 minutes, with a 30-minute add-on and a 30-second increment from move one.

The tournaments are nine rounds, including a double-round day tomorrow, with most rounds starting at 16:00.
