2013 Bangkok Open

The 2013 Bangkok Open and Challengers begins today. The Open has attracted 202 players, and the Challengers 133. GM Nigel Short is the top seed for the Open, with the Australian charge being led by GM Zong Yuan Zhao (10th seed) and IM Max Illingworth (25th seed). The tournament runs until the 21st of April, and is a 9 round event.
The tournament results can be accessed via the Bangkok Chess Club website, and there is also a link to the live games (Round 1 looks to be finished already, with Zhao winning reasonably quickly).
