In order to get a larger number of participants from more provinces will be good to tag it along after/before CYCC/CO. This way the players from non-organizing province can save travel money.

We now have 50% more players than last year.
The tournament begins tomorrow (thursday) at 6pm.

It appears doubtful now that we will have enough girls to create their own section, so the boys and girls play together. But the prizes remain the same.

1st Prize - $2,000 guaranteed towards travel costs.
Top Girl - 100% of entry fees for girls.

We are still accepting email registrations at $150 for today.

Does anyone from the Ottawa area know what happened to Agastya Kalra?
His father posted in this thread that he would be playing, but we have not heard from him!
