Boding Well

AM making final preparations for flying tomorrow to Zurich, which is a convenient airport for getting to Bregenz on the Austrian shore of Bodensee (Lake Constance).

I have entered the seven-round Bodensee Senioren, which is for men 60+ and women 55+.

The tournament starts on Sunday, with all rounds at 09:30 and a time control of 40 moves in 90 minutes, with 30 minutes to finish, and a 30-second increment throughout.

There are 96 entries from 18 countries, including three international masters.

There is also a nine-round open, with 139 entries.
