Rilton Cup 2013/2014

In the next, almost two weeks I will pal in Rilton Cup, the biggest open tournament in Sweden.
The tournament is shared in three groups, but I will only write from the first group (Rilton Cup).
Only players who are rated above 2200 in Elo can play in the highest group, but organisers gave some wild cards for some promising player who are under 2200 in Elo.
It is interesting that the tournament is played over New Years Eve, so it will be played in 2013 and in 2014.

It will be my second participation in this tournament (the first one was 2007/2008 shortly after I broke by long pause in chess).
Informations (in Swedish) can be found on official website: Rilton Cup.

This years edition will be very strong (as usual) with 16 GMs in the field.
