For the fifth time, the Internet Chess Club (ICC) is hosting the annual
Internet Chess Tournament "Ciudad de Dos Hermanas". This year's cash prize
fund has been increased to EUR 6,100 (about $7,750), plus ICC membership
prizes.
Entry is completely FREE. You don't even need to be a paying member of ICC
to compete. Just follow the instructions at the bottom of this message to
sign up for an free trial of ICC. During your trial you can play in any or
all of the twelve Dos Hermanas qualifying tournaments and enjoy ICC's other
features and activities.
From March 6 through the 11th, there will be two Swiss-system qualifying
tournaments each day, beginning at 1:00 PM and 8:00 PM EST. You can take
part in any or all of the tournaments. Winners of the qualifying
tournaments and the 20 best-scoring other players advance to the knockout
finals beginning March 13th. The games will be blitz chess with each player
getting 8 minutes to make their moves and with 2 seconds added to each
player's time after each move.
This tournament gives everyone the chance to compete in a field of world
class players! Last year, the tournament had record participation. 67 Grand
Masters and 103 International Masters took part in a field of 1,117 players
from 75 countries! Every Dos Hermanas tournament has been bigger than the
last and Dos Hermanas V will be THE internet chess tournament of 2004.
