Seven of the Tour players are joined by three wildcards (pairings below) for a rapid round robin and a blitz double round robin. Today is the second blitz round robin, with playoffs if necessary. Join GMs Yasser Seirawan, Evgenij Miroshnichenko, & Cristian Chirila, IM Nazi Paikidze, and WGM Anastasiya Karlovich for the move-by-move.
