Looking for something to do in Dallas today?
Go see some international, championship chess sponsored by the University of Texas – Dallas’s world-beating chess team. The UT-Dallas Grand Master Invitational Tournament has round 9 scheduled to begin at 11:00 a.m., at the Hilton Garden Inn in Richardson, Texas. These are top-level matches (practice rounds for UT-D’s chess team sometimes affect international rankings), so play should continue for quite a while after the start.
Through the MonRoi site, you can watch the chess matches of the Dallas Tournament live — or at least, animations of the boards showing the moves. You have to register, but it’s free.
Below the fold, the complete press release with all details, from UT-Dallas.
