Is This Tournament a Good Fit?

This one-day Swiss event is ideal if you're looking for a quick-paced classical game without a major time commitment, with separate sections for Open and players rated under 1600. Entry fees are very reasonable ($40–$60, with free entry for titled players), and the prize fund includes attractive payouts across multiple categories, including a $50 bonus for the biggest upset. Whether you're chasing the top prize, a female player seeking dedicated prize money, or simply hoping to pull off a surprise win, there's something here for most skill levels.
