Our Blitz tournament takes place every Tuesday, in Old Town Riga at the the “Victory Pub” on Tirgonu Street 10.
We gather at 18.00 and after little chat start to register so games can start around 18.30
In order to make games more fun and even out wining chances we mostly use Handicap system without time increment. Players with higher rating get less time to play against players with lower rating.
