Southwest Chess Club Action!

Note the new location!

Starting this Thursday February 17:

Heart of the Knight Quad
February 17, 24 & March 3

3-Round “Round-Robin” (a “Quad”). Four chess players
with similar ratings to a Quad. Game/90 minutes. USCF Rated. EF: $5.00.
Must be SWCC member or join club to participate.

NO BYES--YOU MUST BE ABLE TO PLAY IN ALL THREE ROUNDS.
YOU WILL PLAY ONE GAME WITH EACH OF THE OTHER 3 PLAYERS IN YOUR QUAD
TD is Fogec; ATD is Grochowski.

NEW LOCATION- Hales Corners Village Hall/Police Station
Lower Level Community Room
5635 S. New Berlin Road
Hales Corners, WI 53130

Registration from 6:20 to 6:50 pm. It is important to arrive during the registration period as individuals will be assigned to quads based on their ratings. Players in the quad will have similar ratings. If you arrive after the registration period we cannot guarantee that you will be placed in a quad. If you know that you will be arriving late this Thursday, but want to be paired for the first round, PLEASE contact me in advance to let me know so that we can include you in the proper quad. If you know you will be late and do not inform me, it increases your odds of having no game this week. [Tom Fogec: PHONE:  414-405-4207.  EMAIL.]

EXTRA: "David's Endgame Prize" There will be a $5.00 "Endgame" prize for this tournament, which will be awarded by David Dathe. This prize will be awarded for the most interesting endgame played in the tournament. Mr. Dathe will be the judge of any games submitted, and he may annotate the endgame for the Southwest Chess Club Blog. Mr. Dathe plans to continue this for all our longer time control tournaments this year (not rapid or blitz games). All tournament players are encouraged to submit a game. Please submit the game to the TD. The game needs to be legible (readable) so the endgame can be properly analyzed. An interesting endgame is the key, not a perfectly played opening or middle game.
