Hi, why you have white pieces in all games? To win easier? Thanks.
Traditionally the simul giver has white. It gives the simul giver a little bit of control over the opening and many tend to make the same opening move on all the boards (e4 or d4 etc.). However, I seen many of Susan’s simul and she mixes it up (perhaps so that players next to each other don’t simply copy each other).
Sincerely,
