Bosna 2013

Chess Club Bosna Sarajevo, four times Champion of Europe, organise 43rd International Chess Tournament.
Tournament will be played between 01 and 08 June in Sarajevo.
It is one of the three oldest open tournaments in World.
The good thing about this tournament is that there is a rating floor at 2200/2300 Elo points.
The highest group is 2300+ and B group is 2200-.
The players between 2200 and 2300 can choose in which group they want to play.
The huge majority of them are already in B group, and that makes A group very strong.
In the focus of this blog it will be only A group.
Right now there are 30 players on the starting list, and among them are seventeen (17) Grandmasters.
It gives me a great opportunity to play against very strong opponents, not depending on my form.
Here you can find the starting list:
