BLACK COFFEE CHESS FRIENDS ~ This year (2026) is the 10th year we have been playing "friendly & free" Black Coffee Chess games & tournaments in Internet.
We play this 10th Anniversary tournament in FIVE (5) different ranking levels:

Level A = ranking more than 1850.
Level B = ranking 1650-1849.
Level C = ranking 1450-1649.
Level D = ranking 1250-1449.

Thinking times in all games: 3 days thinking time per move + 3 days timebank.
Obviously we will need more than one round in the different levels. Round 1 will be the qualification round for the Final.
