On the first day of the tournament, the participants played 8-9 rounds of Blitz on the first day, 8-9 rounds of Rapid on the second day, and 1-2 long games from the third day until the end of the tournament. The afternoons and evenings were spent in game analysis and learning together, but there was also the possibility to go on an excursion together. On the first day of free time we visited the famous Goynük Canyon and on the second day we admired the ancient artifacts of the city of Myra and the famous St. Nicholas' tomb. We were delighted that Bence Homoki successfully scored in both the Classical and Rapid part in his first international competition. Congratulations to all participants!
