A new feature this year is a Basque tournament on the rest day, Wednesday 21th October: a form of chess that originated in the Basque city of San Sebastian: with each duel the opponents play each other on two boards simultaneously, once with white and once with black. This is a new branch on the evergreen tree of chess.
