hey, @mega_dreamer, I need some more stuff to bet on -- only have like 3-4 open bets right now. And the Vegas Freestyle chess tournament begins tomorrow.
How about a double-bet just like last time?
Bet #1 Winner of the Freestyle Vegas 2025 grand slam
There are 16 total players, but I don't know if you want to do 16 options (liquidity for all might be annoying?). We could pick 8 or something, and if it turns out someone else is doing well in the initial round-robin, we'll add them later?
Bet #2: Hans vs Magnus, in case they play. I'm not too sure about the format, so it's not guaranteed but I suppose it's quite likely they will
Freestyle chess is a type of chess that avoids opening preparation by shuffling the backrank of pieces semi-randomly: it produces 960 unique starting positions, and creates instant, dynamic play. The time control is 10 minute + 10 second increment, and no draw offers before move 40.
