ICCF MONEY PRIZE TOURNAMENTS

The ICCF Money Prize Tournaments is a new tournament format specifically approved at the ICCF 2007 Congress. These are tournament sections run in 9-player sections, server only, played at 10 moves in 30 days with conditional moves available, and entries are continuously accepted. Entry into this tournament may only be made through Direct Entry via the ?New Events? pages at the ICCF server site.
The tournaments are open to all, without rating and membership restriction. Sections will be formed without regard to player ratings but as random as possible given the number of entrants. Sections will be rated and eligible for title norms, subject to the usual ICCF regulations.
The entry fee is CHF 40.00 per player (or the equivalent in other offered currencies (about £17 at today?s rate), payable only by Direct Entry. Prizes are paid for 1 st and 2 nd place of CHF 200.00 and CHF 100.00 respectively. Standard tie-breaks (S-B, then Head-to-Head) will be used, and if these do not resolve the tie, the appropriate prize money will be split.
