Hivechess Tournament Season 16 Round 5: Hattrick - @lucianosky won for the third time in a row!

over 1 year ago

Dear chess fans,

yesterday the fifth round of season 16 "Untitled" was played, so we arrived at halftime. It was a 3+2 Fischer random arena tournament with 17 players brave enough to play this chess variant. Welcome back @alberto0607 and @mister-omortson to Hivechess!

@lucianosky (Pavarotty) was again the winner like in the last 2 rounds, with a 5 point lead to the "eternal" (4 out of 5 rounds) runner-up @pamboy27! The third place went to @rosmarly, followed by @lighteye as fourth, both seem to thrive in Chess960! Congratulations to All!

^{Several players had started the season already with 5, 10 or 15 bonus points, dependent how they did in the Lichess Team Battles, read more about it here!}
^{Since this round was played in Chess960, the rating and performance was not changed.}
For the rules please refer to the announcement post.

Due to the absence of @jaki01, @pamboy27 took now the lead, closely followed by @lucianosky! In the last 3 rounds @lucianosky could gain one point each from the current leader, so if this pattern continues for the next 5 rounds, both would end up with the same number of points! Everything is still possible!

See you all next week where we will switch back to "normal" chess - and keep practicing!
