Brain Games Network signs million dollar contract This morning, Tuesday 1 May, Brain Games plc signed a contract with the state of Bahrain for a million dollar prize fund plus a further million dollars in back-up for the Man v Machine Challenge to be held in October. This is the culmination of many months of painstaking negotiations. The leading light from the Bahrain side was His Excellency Yousuf Shirawi, former Bahrain chess champion and member of the Bahrain government. The contract was signed for Brain Games Network by CEO David Massey. Grandmaster Ray Keene will be appointed Match Director while senor Enrique Irazoqui, currently organising the machine qualifier in Spain, will be invited as chief arbiter. http://www.braingames.net/index.php
