  • GMs this year at the Canadian Open

    Today was a busy day for GM registration. Some of these names have not made it to the registration list yet. Here are our GMs so far, in random order:

    Bator Sambuev, CAN
    Razvan Preotu, CAN
    John Fedorowicz, USA
    Joshua Sheng, USA
    Mark Paragua, PHI
    Isan Ortiz, CUB
    Reinaldo Vera, CUB
    Manuel Perez, CUB
    Yuri Gonzalez, CUB

    We hope to add a few more GMs to the roster soon.

    The Canadian Open will take place in Hamilton from July 12-17, immediately following the CYCC.

    May 31 is our next early payment deadline.

    Thanks Hal. I beat one of those guys once, but not recently. I think he was about 8 years old at the time! :)

    Canadian Open format this year is one section, so everyone has an opportunity to play a GM.

    Here is a link to the registration list, which is updated regularly. Check for your pre-covid rivals :)

    This is a great opportunity after our COVID shutdown to see old friends again.
    It's going to be a great time. Don't miss it.

          Hal, you are doing exceptionally well with the Open!!

          You do have GM Vera listed twice on the entry list.

            Thank you Frank! The duplicate is noted!

            Tomorrow the prices increase for the CYCC and Canadian Open. The residence is now completely sold out, but the Marriot is a short drive away and features a great breakfast.

                Having been involved in organizing three Canadian Opens, I know how much work is involved. Good luck to the organizers this year: it looks like it will be a successful event.
