The 2018 Dutch Chess Championship is an 8-player round-robin tournament taking place from 2-8 July 2018 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

Chess players receive 90 minutes for 40 chess moves, followed by 30 minutes for the rest of the game, with a 30-second increment starting from move 1.

Veteran chess GM Sergey Tiviakov was a last minute substitute in the 2018 Dutch Championship. And how did he fare without preparation? He became the 2018 Dutch Chess Champion with a round to spare after beating former Dutch Chess Champion GM Van Wely! This is a pretty amazing chess performance!
