Is This Tournament a Good Fit?
This three-day classical event offers something for most Nevada players, with both a Championship section and a Reserve section featuring separate prize funds—including $500 for first place in the main event. With flexible scheduling options (full three-day or condensed two-day), you can choose a format that fits your calendar, and the G/90+30 time control gives you room to think through your moves. At $65–$85 to enter, it's a reasonably priced way to compete for prizes while testing yourself against a regional field.
