Grandmaster Timur Gareyev aka. Blindfold King made an impressive score in the simultaneous blindfolded chess exhibition in Stockholm, Sweden on Friday night.
He won 9 of 10 games – and the most difficult task he had to beat was the pedals on the spinning bike – because both broke during the event!
Gareyev had this event as a training session before the world record attempt in Prag in December. He will then meet 47 chess players blinfolded.
