Thema: Re: single elimination

furbster: Do not let them play against eachother in the first round. The player who beats the strongest player in the first round wins.

Thema: Re: single elimination

I played last month such a tournament and indeed if a low rated player draws a higher rated player, then the latter on losts. In the first rounds the rating differences were big, but the semi-final was close. (I was knocked out in the quarter final)

Thema: Single elimination

Verändert von Lambik (2. Feburar 2006, 08:50:20)

Fencer: With single elimination, it is not possible to "draw" a game. But how about games that could not be won? For example a chess game with not enough material (K+N+N against K for example) or what about the fifty moves rule? Some time ago I had a game with three times the same position, but no automatic draw. Is this doable?
