YourNextMove is the second leg of the Grand Chess Tour 2017. Join us as we witness live exciting games of Rapid and Blitz in the beautiful city of Leuven. Spectators may not be familiar with Leuven, but you should be. This city was a commercial centre and county capital more than a century before Brussels was even founded. Boasting the largest University in the Benelux Union, the city is a rich piece of European history waiting to be discovered. The participants in the YNM GCT tournament will play 9 games of rapid chess and 18 games of blitz for a total prize fund of $150,000.
National Master Julian Proleiko had a bet with a friend that he couldn't find strong games with a real use of Na1. Watch as he wins the bet with grandmaster games, including one by world champion Magnus Carlsen.
Grandmaster Ben Finegold shows three miniatures from Harry Nelson Pillsbury (winner of Hastings 1895) and former world champion Boris Spassky. These games aren't known by heart to many, so impress your friends when you learn them!
