French Defense Masterpiece! – Vidit vs Aronian – Superunited Rapid and Blitz Croatia 2024

The SuperUnited Rapid & Blitz Croatia will be held from the 10th to the 14th of July in Zagreb, Croatia as a 10-player round robin. It is part of the Grand Chess Tour, a series of Classical, Rapid and Blitz tournaments

For the Rapid and Blitz events, the games in the rapid portion are worth twice as many points as their blitz counterparts. The rapid portion is a 10-player round-robin, and the blitz portion is a 10-player double round-robin.

In the event of a tie, the two tied players will play a mini-match of 2 rapid (10+5) games. If more than two players are tied, a blitz (5+3) round-robin will be held to determine the winner.

The time control for the rapid games is 25 minutes for the entire game with a 10-second increment beginning from move 1.

The time control for the blitz games is 5 minutes for the entire game with a 2-second increment beginning from move 1.

(4/4) On another note I could do with some tips on how to get a good sleep. It seems like I am a fully fledged insomniac. πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«
I was in bed at 1am last night but didn't even manage to get 1 minutes sleep after tossing and turning all night. Been awake for about 40 hours now. 😱

(3/4) I missed one very likely obvious winning move.
Here I played Bg2? but I should just play Qh6!
For some reason I had missed ...Qxh6 Bxh6 ...Nxc3 a3! Which is game over.
In the end I lost πŸ˜” after Johann played excellently.
