Hello Chess players on Hive,

Yesterday, we played the fourth round of the weekly Saturday HiveChess Tournament. We had a total of 27 players who clicked to join the event and about 21 players who actually played a game. A more inferior number than last week!

Congratulations to @poseout87 for winning the tournament! After finishing either second or third in previous rounds, he finally won the event! It was a nervy finish but he got above the finish line. Congratulations to IM @stuffings and @chessdev17 for finishing second and third respectively.

Here is a table of the top 8 players.
