Looks interesting!

Suggestions:

1. Provide a date

2. Put up a web page - ideally with a live updating results section (a shared Google spreadsheet will do fine - no need to become a web design expert)

3. Use a chatbot or https://translate.google.com/ to do your translation and just have a human check it

I am not sure how I start in sharing a google spreadsheet.
found the following link
but the first thing that I see when I create a new googel sheet is some excel document and it is not what I want.

Have the players been decided?

There is still no final list of players but I expect at least 2 IM's one FM and 2 NM's to play.
I will give more details later.

so far I have only 13 players after part changed their mind and are not going to play including the IM's.

Unfortunately no GM's or IM's and no fide rating above 2300 but some with fide rating above 2200 and one with expected fide rating above 2300.

This Saturday. Should be an enjoyable event!

[lkaufman]

Leela Rook Odds has now won 60 consecutive Rapid games against players rated over 2400 on LiChess Rapid, which is supposed to equate to over 2230 FIDE per "ChessGoals" website. The majority were over 2500 LiChess, including quite a few with an IM, average opponent probably about FM level. In most of the games the human also played White, called "Rook and move" odds. Also the majority of the games were not fast games like 10'0" or something comparable. This Saturday will test whether Classical time limits are enough for the best players to score decently, given that comparable players can't even score a single draw in 60 Rapid games. How much better do humans play in Classical than in Rapid? This will be the test.

2 young IM's are also going to play in the event.
IM Yannay Ben Ari fide rating 2457(national rating 2489) age 21
IM Roy Vagman 2377(national rating 2357) age 17

IM Yannay Ben Ari fide rating 2457(national rating 2489) age 21
IM Roy Vagman 2377(national rating 2357) age 17

They should have good chances to win; the FM level players may mostly draw, maybe get a win or two. Maybe 3 wins and 5 or 6 draws for the humans might be a plausible result, but we don't have much to go by, especially since the latest improvement to search is only a couple days old.

I decided to allow players with national elo below 2000 to play with NN odds in the first game when they win only 1/3 of the prize money
for the same result against R odds(these players are 14,17,18 but I am not sure if they choose this option).

18 will have no choice if some strong player decide to join in the last moment.

Another player is going to join national master Daniel Iliaguev fide rating 2248(national rating 2265) ao we have now 19 players
