The 5th Equinox Spring Go tournament was held in Hotel Viktor, Bratislava, from 20th to 21st of march 2015. There were 30 players playing in the tournament from 20 kyu to 3 dan strength, this time, only players from Slovakia.
The tournament system was 4 rounds, MacMahon, and all the games were played with handicap (reduced handicap -2). To play with handicap is quite common in Slovakia, that was the reason I did not participate in the tournament. Of course, I played friendly games.
Game, that has decided the winner of the tournament was played between Maros Kral 3 dan and Xaver Gubas 3 dan, nr.3 and nr.4 in Slovak rating . Maros won the game by half a point, which is symbolic, because there was announced a special price in the tournament for losers of a game decided by half point, because of the spring equinox.
Results
If you want to come to play Go in Slovakia, you are welcome, we have yearly about 10 tournaments.
