With classical time controls (G/60 with a 5-second delay on the main schedule, or G/30 for the 2-day option's first round), you'll have time to think through your moves while keeping the tournament moving at a reasonable pace. Entry fees are affordable at $59–$79, making it an accessible way to compete against strong players from across Texas.
