Coming up in less than two weeks - in celebration of the International Master title awarded to 15 year-old Razvan Preotu of Burlington who, with one more grandmaster norm, will become Canada's youngest grandmaster!
This will be the fifth special Rapid tournament in the past two years. And the attendance has grown in each succeeding event as follows >>>>
Nikolai Noritsyn GM norm celebration .............18 entries
50th Anniversary tournament - Nov 2013 .......28 entries
John Chidley-Hill Memorial - March 2014 ........34 entries
Olympiad Fundraiser - June 2014 ..................38 entries
Dare we hope to reach 40 entries on Nov 22?
As always, the entry fee remains at $25 and includes a $5 food and drink voucher but the food (a heavily-laden table of the Unicorn's tasty appetizers) will be provided by a sponsor.
Also sponsored will be a money-added prize pool.
For now, the First Prize is guaranteed at $300 but this will likely be increased as the tournament date approaches.
It is not too early to indicate your intent to play and we will update the pre-registered list regularly on ChessTalk.
