We are hosting a joint online chess tournament with the Harvard Club of Seattle. This tournament is open to all ages, so feel free to register your whole family! The tournament will be run "arena" style with a time control of G/10. We'll play from 1pm-2:30pm followed by a talk by chess master and mathematician Noam Elkies from 2:45pm-3:15pm. We'll host a follow-on tournament after the talk for those who want to play more from 3:30pm-5pm.
Please note that you will need a lichess.org account, which can be created for free, to participate. You will receive the tournament password and URL for the talk the day before the tournament begins.
