It's time to win $10,000 b/133
from BayAreaChess Real Championship This Weekend!
An important note about the New Play-Up policy:
We returned the play-up
rule this summer from 300 points to 200 points. Here it is for the future reference:
1. 200-point minimum for the top section (because the 2000+ players do not want to play players with lower ratings - 200 points balances both sides).
2. 1 section up for all other sections (because the
section rating ranges vary across tourneys)
3. All ratings is based on the USCF Current Published
Rating Supplement
