Hex tournament in Paris
This video shows third edition of the Hex tournament held by Comité International des Jeux Mathématiques on May 31, 2015 in Paris.
The tournament was dedicated to John Forbes Nash Jr. U.S. mathematician, winner of the Nobel Prize in economics and co-inventor of Hex, who passed away on May 23 2015.
Twenty-four players took part in the competition, most of them from France, but this time there were also players coming from seven different European countries, making this tournament a little bit more "international".

Bobby Fisher winning undercover and he though we wouldn't notice
Is it me, or are they playing on 14x14 boards and not 11x11 boards?
Not in the beginning
@@scandinavian_plagueis For the rules of the tournament, it is written in the subtitles that : "Tournament dans held in "round-robin" style and was played on 11×11 cells boards with "swap roule" from first round to semi-finals. The final game ans the third-place game were played on Nash boards (14×14)"
I wonder where they got the Game boards; they look pretty sweet!
At the time of the tornament, they were used to sell those boards: maybe the boards are still available on their site www.cijm.org/
ça fait bizarre de voir Mickaël Launay dans une vidéo internationale
micmath !!
T'es aussi venu après la série de vidéos qu'il a fait ?
Thanks! Maybe I will fly to Paris one day (but not 2017, unfortunately.). I notice you use digital clocks, but apparently there is no sort of delay or increment, just sudden death time control. Would you consider implementing a delay such as with the Bronstein time control method? That way a player will always have at least N seconds for each move, for example 20 seconds would help keep the quality of play good, especially in the semifinals and in the final games. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_control#Compensation_.28delay_or_increment_methods.29
Hi Jonathan! Sorry, I haven't noticed your message 'till now! Yes something must be changed about time, you are right. I'll try to tell the organizers of the tournament, to change it in a way that could fit better a game like Hex. Your suggestion about a delay or increment of time sounds good. We will see if they listen to me :) What about a trip to Paris in May 2018 ???????? Ciao!
Nice, but I don't like the sets used for the game. Something like www.boardgamegeek.com/image/1601307/hex or www.boardgamegeek.com/image/358786/hex would be better.
+Maurizio De Leo your suggestion is nice too, but do you know how much those sets cost? I'll tell you: more than 200 euros each ;) I also think boards made with hexagons are easier to play on than those Danish sets; sets I like very much indeed ;)
IMO your sets are fine, but factory second Megamats with 1"hexes from www.chessex.com/mats/Battlemats_&_Megamats.htm can be cut into five 14x14 boards. One of the obtuse corners of one of the five sets will not have a complete hex outline. Black thread loosely stitched on two opposite sites will indicate the black border rows. An image of such a set is at www.boardgamegeek.com/image/3509187/twixter
Corrigendum: There is an error in the titles of the video: when it's written that Florian got to the semi-finals. It was not Florian, who was eliminated, but Fabien! Sorry :)
