Tiebreaks

Tiebreaks in chess are methods used in a tournament to determine a winner among players who have the same total number of points after the initial rounds of play. Different forms of tiebreaks include calculating the average rating of opponents, counting the number of games won with the black pieces, or even organizing additional games between the tied players. The use of specific tiebreak methods depends on the rules set by the tournament organizers.
