Is This Tournament a Good Fit?
This weekend tournament offers a classic time control with 90 minutes per side plus 30-second increments, giving you time to think through your moves without a multi-week commitment. At $75–85 (increasing after May 22), the entry fee is very reasonable for a five-round event. The Swiss system means you'll face opponents near your skill level regardless of your rating, making it a welcoming option for players across the spectrum.
