#agadmator World Champion Magnus Carlsen plays 30 games of rapid and blitz chess against Ding Liren in one of 4 matches that make up the Champions Showdown at the Saint Louis Chess Club from 9-14 November 2017. The other 3 matches feature the top American players: Nakamura vs. Topalov, Caruana vs. Grischuk and So vs. Dominguez.
The games feature no delay or increment, so we can expect time trouble mayhem.

For each match the winner gets $60,000, the loser $40,000. Official website: www.uschesschamps.com
