Swiss
In a Swiss event nobody is knocked out. Each round, players with the same record are drawn together, so winners meet winners, and nobody plays the same opponent twice. After a set number of rounds, the best record wins.
How it works
- 1Round one is drawn by rating
- 2Each later round pairs players on the same points
- 3Nobody meets the same player twice
- 4An odd number means one bye a round, counted as a win
Ties
Players level on points are split by the strength of the players they met, then by frames.
