GM Adam Tukhaev

A soft spoken 30 year old Grandmaster from Ukraine that has been under the radar in the recent years. Adam got his GM title in 2007 and his highest FIDE rating has been 2557.

Recently he beat Magnus Carlsen

with a bit of luck but then he also lost to a 1733 player so it will be interesting to see which side of him we will get.



Leela Chess Zero

Leela on the other hand is having an exciting run at TCEC while at the CCCC it could be doing better. For this match, Leela will be running on a CPU (i5-6600K @ 4.1 GHz) and will give Adam piece odds. If Adam finds it too easy, Leela will play with equal pieces.
