Zach - there is a google map to the new location in the initial post above. :)

Re: Hamilton Winter Open 2011

Zach, I would suggest you to go, it is an inexpensive tournament, and if you play the way you did against me in Guelph you should be able to gain a lot more rating points in the U1900 section(maybe even win it).

I'm undecided if I'm going to go to this one, I have to talk to my club president before I make my decision.

Hey Garvin,

I'm not sure if I am going to play in this one, but it looks like an enjoyable tournament to consider. Could you notify me of the new location?
