Our July Swiss starts on July 7th at 5:45 pm. Entry fee $2 with four rounds 7th, 14th, 21th, 28th at Game\60. Let me know via email or at the club if you need a bye for any round. Anyone missing round one can still enter via email with a .5 bye for round one.

Starting in August we're going to be mixing up the events to include some one night and two night Game\30 tourneys and perhaps an occasional blitz night.

John T. v. John E.

The meeting on June 30th is scheduled for Game/15 Quick Quads by rating--a one night event. I have recently had a request for a blitz night and a Game/30 night (if we did Game/30 quads or 3SS it would mean staying till about 9 pm). Another possibility is to try to lure a titled player to the club for a simul. If you have any suggestions or requests for scheduling for the third quarter please post a comment or email me so it can be discussed on-line (in comments) or at our next meeting.

I did hear from several of our regulars via email who will be missing the June tournament due to vacations, family, work and various other summertime activities that  our part of our lives. Please keep in mind that June 30th is a one meeting Game\15 event and house games are always a possibility each week (especially with an odd number of players).  Any late entries can still get a .5 bye. Anyone needing a bye in rounds 2, 3,or 4 let me know as soon as possible.

I just wanted to sent out congratulations to Duy who raised his rating 65 points at the Texas State Championship with excellent results against a couple of strong Class "A" players. You can see one of his wins with notes by clicking on the "Getting to 2000" link on the right side of the screen.
