Anthony Harbone Precision Shootout
Round 1 of 6 Wednesday 8/24/11 7 PM
We honor one of our friendliest and most experienced club members, Anthony Harbone. One thing I have noticed about his game is that he loves to sacrifice material for the initiative and he hates to trade Queens. He's a real fighter and has given me many tough contests over the years. Please congratulate "Tony" when you see him and let him know how much the club admires him.
This tournament will be in 4 sections, 2 Fast and 2 Slow. Instead of Swiss pairings, we will use SDCC custom made Precision Pairings. In this system, you are paired, if possible, with a player who has the same number of points as you, but instead of the top half versus bottom half pairings as used in the Swiss system, you are paired with the person who is closest to you in rating. We tried this for the first time last year and it worked pretty well.
The Gunslinger Open Section will be at our normal slow time control of 40/90, SD/60 with 5 second delay per move. This will be mostly Masters and Experts, maybe a few Class A players playing up. Also this section will serve as a Qualifier for next year's Club Championship.
