    Wow! This is the most beautiful chess venue I've ever seen. Dare I say even better than the beautiful St Louis chess club. Not only is it gorgeous but the attention to detail and thoughtful touches are insane! The interior designers and organizers of this even get a 12/10 from me. THIS is how you host a top tier chess event. Thanks Sagar for giving us this tour!

    09:14 - I'm not correcting Sagar here. To clarify for everyone wondering why it's called Chess960, the name comes from the fact that you can arrange a chessboard in 960 variations. So indeed, Chess960 does have 960 possible starting positions, as the name suggests.

    • @papesldjnsjkfjsn
      @papesldjnsjkfjsn 3 місяці тому +1

      the starting position is also in those 960 positions, so there are only 959 possible positions that might get played (they remove the starting one) altho yes he did make a mistake saying 958 for some reason

    It looks so cosy, especially the lounge area. When the players had this 10-min-prep time, it looked as if they were casually siting in a living room lol.
    I love the chess tables with the digital boards without messy cables. Jan said in an interview that they might start building and selling these tables, I think that’s a great idea. And I love that the venue is comparatively small, that makes the atmosphere family-like. For the players it’s probably nice to have short ways, with their private lounge areas just a few steps away from the board.

    Thank you for the tour - the old barn style of this venue looks really charming! However, I noticed that the ceiling is made of wood and glass and I couldn't spot any air vents. I was wondering if there is enough fresh air supply (as higher CO2-concentration / more re-breathed air leads to lower cognitive performance)? Do you know by any chance if the organisers monitor air quality / CO2-levels?

    Seeing the beautiful venue they have designed for an event, which I personally don't like as much as the 360, one thinks about how far chess has come from Fischer's time to this moment. I have a question if you want to answer it: Why have only these players been invited and many others left out? Example Nakamura, among others...
