Quads (4 players with similar rating will be put into a quad and will play each other).Unfortunately, we will not accept any player(s) rated less than 1000; published USCF Live Regular Rating determines eligibility.

Entry Fee:

**NO ON-SITE ENTRIES, NO EXCEPTION**
FREE!  Pre-register by clicking here.

But to help cover my expenses, there is an option of "buying" a raffle ticket online for $7.  Three random players will be chosen from the raffle section to get a free entry [a $15+ value] to any of my upcoming tournaments.

TD has the right to disqualify members from the raffle prize for not giving any advance notice [24 hours] regarding no-shows.

Registration closes the night before the tournament day at 8 PM.

If time permits, we will have a Blitz tournament that is open to anybody with a USCF membership.  You may leave whenever, but I am expecting to host this till 8:30 PM.  Time control will be G/3; +2 (Game 3, plus 2 second increment)
