“A perfect tournament for amateurs too. It’s always a highlight if you beat a 250-points higher rated player at a playing venue with fantastic sea views. 2017 will be my 5th consecutive participation in Reykjavik. I already threatened the organizers not to stop visiting before my 50th visit. A secret info from my side. there is a restaurant where Bobby Fischer used to enjoy his dinner. The seat is easy to identify by a picture hanging at the wall. Which restaurant? Ask google or Gunnar. “

“Somehow Iceland became my favorite chess country. I have always enjoyed playing in the Reykjavik Open. It’s a strong tournament, the place is mind blowing, the people are warm.”
