chess24 Banter Series | Qualifier H
Svidler, Peter vs. Yilmaz, Mustafa
The chess24 Banter Series Qualifiers are 8-player knockout tournaments on chess24 where all the players are required to stream their thoughts as they play. Only the winner of each of the 8 qualifiers advances to the 16-player Banter Series Finals, where they're joined by 8 super-GMs, including world no. 1 Magnus Carlsen and world no. 2 Fabiano Caruana.
Each match consists of eight 3+2 blitz games, so that winner is the first to reach 4.5 points. If the players are tied another pair of 3+2 games is played. If still tied the match will be decided in an Armageddon game (5 vs. 4 minutes with draw odds for Black). Official website: events.chess24.com/banter-series
