[FR] Je viens de m'inscrire à l'événement Chess4Pal, un tournoi en ligne d'échecs pour lever des fonds pour soutenir la Palestine. Vous pourrez me voir jouer sur Twitch (je ne sais pas encore sur quelle chaîne). L'événement aura lieu le 27 avril à 16h00 CEST.

Si vous voulez faire un don pour la Palestine, vous pourrez le faire pendant le tournoi. Vous pourriez avoir envie de donner 5€ pour chacune de mes victoires mais j'ai peur que ça donne pas une grosse somme à l'arrivée compte tenu de mon niveau d'échecs. J'apprécierai le niveau de confiance porté sur moi cela dit.
