Hivechess Tournament S20 Round 11: Farewell to Swiss

Dear chess fans,

yesterday the 11^th round of S20 was played! For the rules please refer to the announcement post. It was a 2+1 Swiss tournament over 11 rounds with only 20 players (so far the average was 24,6).

Hive account@maestroask won yet another time with 10 points out of 11, followed by Hive account@kintokris and Hive account@franu. Congratulations to All!

It was one of my worst tournaments, I ended up not even in the top 10 and lost my rank 3 in the overall ranking. The pairing again ridiculous (much easier for some others). Against Hive account@franu I was in a completely winning position (+8) and up on time, but was mated (kudos to his tenacity). After that I was on tilt. I will never ever run a Swiss tournament again.
