            Is there a pre-registration list up for the Blitz? 1000$ first place prize is juicy.

                  Hi Marcus. How many U2000 players are currently registered for the blitz? Not sure if it is worth $60 for me to go and lose every game lol.

                    Hi, Michael.

                    It's mostly masters. It could be a great opportunity to play such strong players, or it could be totally demoralizing :)

                    Maybe get a friend to register with you?

                    We decided to hold the price at $50 to encourage continued registration.

                    Best,
                    Marcus

                      It's an absolutely beautiful day at the Toronto harbourfront, where the Toronto Blitz Championship has just begun with 50 players. I will be posting results immediately, round by round, at: http://www.chess-results.com/tnr137935.aspx?lan=1

                        It was a great day with a lot of chess here and there.
                        The blitz tournament was amazing.
                        Thnx to those who ran the show.

                        Took many pictures but only at late night I may have time to process.
