Round
- In a Duplicate tournament,
the portion of a session between movements where players remain at one
table and play multiple boards against the same opponents. A board
is typically played in 7 1/2 minutes; thus, a round of 2 boards should
require 15 minutes to play (Directors often use 7 minute boards when
more than 2 boards are played per round). An open game session
should be completed in 3 1/2 hours.
