Is This Tournament a Good Fit?
This three-day event offers something for every level, with a full classical Open section, a Reserve section capped at U1600, and a separate Rated Beginner Open for players under 1000—plus a Saturday night blitz tournament if you want a quicker time commitment. Whether you prefer the deliberate pace of 90-minute classical games, the faster rhythm of 60-minute games on the 2-day schedule, or the quick tactics of blitz, you'll find a format that fits your style. Entry fees are very affordable across all sections, starting at just $20.
