Casablanca Chess 2024
Mark Crowther – Sunday 19th May 2024
The Casablanca Chess tournament takes place May 18th-19th. This is part of the Morocco Chess Week. Magnus Carlsen, Hikaru Nakamura, Viswanathan Anand and Amin Bassem play a double round robin rapid. The twist is the “players are given a position from a game that has already been played (or could also be imagined). However, this position must meet several well-defined criteria. First and foremost, the evaluation should be roughly equal (around 0.00, according to engines).”
