Luis Ignacio forsvarer tittelen i sjakk for fire spillere på Chess.com

Luis Ignacio, kjent på nettet som EyeoftheTiger1204, beholdt kronen sin i den andre utgaven av 4-Player Chess Championship. Til tross for en sisteplass i det første utslagsspillet, gjorde Ignacio et comeback og sikret seg førstepremien på 1 800 dollar fra en premiepott på 5 000 dollar. CM Vahan Nalbandyan kom på andreplass, mens Kole Robertson tok tredjeplassen.

Turneringen, som er en del av Chess.com Community Championships, trakk til seg spillere fra plattformens offisielle nettsamfunn. Åtte kvalifiseringsrunder ble arrangert fra 13. til 16. april, og vinnerne gikk videre til en utslagsrunde den 17. april. Semifinalene besto av to grupper med fire spillere i 90-minutters arenaer med fireminutters partier uten tilleggstid, der et 3-1-1-0-poengsystem ble benyttet per parti. Ignacio dominerte sin gruppe og vant alle seks partiene, noe som sendte ham videre sammen med Robertson, Nalbandyan og CM Hamlet Antonyan fra den andre semifinalen.
