Re: Montreal blitz results

Hi Hugh,

Any idea if there will be a COQ blitz this year? I only saw information about the regular tournament on the FQE website.

Thanks!! Jordan

Re: Montreal blitz results

From the COQ ad on page 2 of Echec+ Mars-avril 2009:

"Championnat blitz du Québec 2009
1200 $ prix garantis
Une seule section
Samedi 25 juillet
Inscription sur place de 17h à 18h30: 20 $ pour tous (GM: gratuit).
Prix: $400, 300, 200, 150, 100, 50."

I don't know why it's not mentioned on their Web page.

Re: Montreal blitz results

Unfortunately I won't be at the Blitz. I'm taking my mother to see Bill Cosby that night for her birthday... I'll let someone else win it this year
