I do not know about tournament with adjournments in the last years. I remember tournaments with adjournments only many years ago. Unfortunately it seems to me that tournament with adjournment are hostory. I do not buy the excuse that people can use computers in the adjournment because in the past they could also use advices of other players in the adjournment so if today computers are reason to avoid adjournment then it means that humans were a good reason to avoid adjournment in the past.
