FIDE candidates tournament live games

pgn4web is used for live games broadcasting at the 2013 FIDE Candidates Tournament.

The 2013 FIDE candidates tournament takes place in London 15th March to 1st April 2013. A double round robin event, featuring Aronian, Carlsen, Gelfand, Grischuk, Ivanchuk, Kramnik, Radjabov and Svidler. The winner will face, later this year, the current title holder World Champion Vishy Anand for the prestigious FIDE World Championship.

pgn4web has been selected as a live viewer for non flash enabled devices and as a live viewer for mobile devices in general.

The site features the latest pgn4web capabilities, for example, the live viewer for mobile devices supports the engine analysis board: clicking square E8 a popup analysis board appears, providing basic engine evaluation of the position and allowing the user to move pieces and assess the impact on the position evaluation. The next time you don't fully understand what would happen if Aronian takes that pawn left hanging by Carlsen, you can use the pgn4web analysis board to find out! More information about the pgn4web engine analysis board is available at the pgn4web wiki.
