Chess Live Broadcast


It is Saturday today. The date is 29/10/2016. The month of October 2016 is just several days to go. That means two more months to go for the year 2016. How time flies. 

It is a long weekend since next Monday is a public holiday. The public holiday is due to Deepavali (Diwali) which falls today. GiLoCatur wishes HAPPINESS to all the Hindus who celebrate Deepavali. 

Today, at least there are three chess tournaments are on going. 

First Tournament
In Kuala Lumpur, KLCA which is the KL Chess Association holds its Chess Closed at Kompleks Rakan Muda Bukit Kiara. It is a one-day chess tournament with time format of 30 minute per player without increment. It is a six-round championship. 

Second Tournament
In Sungai Petani Kedah, there is a chess tournament called MPSPK Chess Open. Not much GiLoCatur knows about the tournament except there are two categories namely Under 12 or Primary School and Under 18 or Secondary School.
