Free Style Chess

It was a very exciting experience when I played eight games in freestyle tournament. Though it was very hectic, as almost all games went till end and had very little time in between games so it was almost continuous eight hours of play with tension. Lot more such tournaments should take place and these may decide fate of chess game in near future. I thought there will be much more players or teams taking part than 147 which were presents. May be it was not well publicized event. Organizers should have done more of marketing on all chess websites other than chessbase.
I think person with one engine and very fast computer won the first phase. Overall feeling is it was Rybka’s tournament. At least that’s the feeling one gets from name of the players.
After a while such tournament will loose the chess loving fans and it will become as a market place for different softwares. Machines are going to be faster day by day, and all this means that fun will be lost. Their speed increases exponentially!! So may be by end of the year when Kramnik plays Deep Fritz it will be a Last chance for human beings to defeat these monsters.
