High Quality 6 hour chess games with 5 second delay for those who love classical chess at this traditional time control, or three quick 2 hour games to start off if you are tough enough to handle that grueling schedule. Directed by Bruce Baker with assistance from Chuck Ensey, we hope this event will be as successful as the recent Southern California Open which drew 180 players to a nearby location. By the way that event will repeat at the same location, Crowne Plaza Hotel, over Labor Day weekend in 2012 (Sept 1,2 and 3)      

Bye policy: Two byes allowed, but byes in rounds 5 and 6 MUST be requested before round two and are irrevocable. Byes in rounds 1-4 can be requested anytime up to 1 hour before the round. Of course if you are going to withdraw, also notify the TD, it is very rude not to and leave someone else waiting for an opponent.

Hotel Info: Special rate of only $110, call 619-260-0111 and mention chess tournament rate. Rate is only guaranteed until 1/19/12, so book early to insure you get this rate, as it may go up or rooms could be completely sold out if you wait too long. You can look at the hotel at www.sheraton.com/sandiegomv . San Diego is a great vacation spot so bring the family and let them visit the world famous San Diego Zoo, Sea World and Legoland while you play chess.

Gambito Open #539 November Super Gambito

Gambito #539 November Super Gambito  

4 rounds of G/40 with 5 second delay, Rounds are at 10:30 AM, 12:15, 2:45 & 4:30 

Entry Fee: $25 One bye allowed, but not in the last round. Unrated players eligible for book prize only, but get free entry. USCF membership ($42) required but we can sign you up on the spot. SCCF membership ($18) required if you win a prize of over $18, SDCC membership ($60) required if you win more than $100 during the trailing 12 months.  

33 players today, good turnout. Here are the players in pre-event rating order:

5 Masters: Cyrus Lakdawala, Kyron Griffith, Bruce Baker, Varun Krishnan and Peter Graves

4 Experts: Paul Agron, Leonard Sussman, Aaron Wooten and Jamieson Pryor

6 Class A: Ben Barquin, Chris Wonnell, Elkaei Rivera, Jerry Qu, Aaron Householder and Chuck Ensey

Ben Barquin won the event with 3 wins over Kyron Griffith, Paul Agron and Leonard Sussman, plus a strategic round 3 bye. That raised a few eyebrows as it is rare for players to take a third round bye, but it is legal. However you could several players flapping their arms and squawking like a certain well known bird. Cyrus drew with Varun and with Bruce. Peter Graves drew with Bruce and lost to Cyrus.
