2024 Early Spring Swiss Chess Tournament - R3 Results, Tentative R4 Pairings

Hi folks, heading into the home stretch, final round 4 next week.  Thanks for listening to the announcements tonight - go ahead and sign up for the HC Challenge!!

(Pairings are always tentative until you see them on paper in the Eagles' Club on Wed - show up and likely get some kind of rated match, even if you're listed as a bye...)

Both sections have a great fight for 1st to resolve next week - 4 players at 2.5 in the Open, and 2 players at a perfect 3.0 in Reserve.  Good luck to all !!

See you Wed!

 Waukesha Chess Club Speed Championship Tournament

The tournament was held at the Eagles Club on Wednesday, April 3, 2024.  There were 23 players, ranging in rating from 325 to 1874.

Play was in sections.  Section winners played each other in two-game playoffs, and then a final playoff for the championship.

Section winners were Aaron Krause with 2 points against John De Mastri with 1 point, and Evan Seghers with 2 points against Mike La Budde.  In the championship playoff Evan Seghers scored 2 points.

Congratulations to Evan Seghers on becoming the club speed champion!  This follows by one week his fine performance in the club championship (with regular time control), which he won.  Overall, this was remarkable.  Evan scored 6 wins, no draws, no losses in the club championship tournament.  Then, he scored 12 wins, no draws, no losses in the speed tournament sectional, followed by 2 wins, no draws, no losses, in the preliminary section playoff, and next 2 more wins, no draws, no losses in the championship playoff.

Speed Championship Details, 4/3

On Wednesday, April 3, the Waukesha Chess Club will hold its annual speed championship tournament.

Tournament details are as follows:

Round Robin in sections; each player will play everyone else in the section, once with White, once with Black

Time control:  5 minutes per game, no delay setting

To win on time, if one player's time has expired, the opponent must have mating material to claim a win on time; otherwise, the game is a draw.

A move is not complete until the player has pressed the clock to stop his/her clock and start the opponent's clock.

A King in check may be captured; this ends the game.

In case of an illegal move, reset the board to the position before the illegal move was made, and continue the game.

Entry Fee:  $1; 

Ignore the coffee can.  No rent payment is due for this tournament.

This is an "Unrated" tournament.  No USCF membership is required..

Notify Jim or reply here before Wednesday at 6:00 p.m. if you want to play, or come to the Eagles Club and enter before 7:00 p.m. Wednesday.
