Let's get revved up for the screening of GRANDMASTERS!  The brand new documentary about your favorite chess players, playing esclusively at Lynnhaven AMC on October 11 and 14!  If you haven't seen the trailer yet, check it out!  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJ411MMkf7o


On October 11 at 3:00 at the Twisted Crab in VA Beach, across from the  Lynnhaven AMC, we will hold a 4 round tournament prior to the 6:00 screening of GRANDMASTERS!  The tournament is FREE and is open to the public, all ages and skill levels, are welcome to compete in a single open section!  Winners will receive bragging rights, free CD's from Benjamin Blundercheck & the Poisoned Pawn, and the 1st place winner will be compensated for their entry to the GRANDMASTERS screening!  

Games will be casual but we will use US Chess rules when playing.  15 minutes on the clock with a 5 second delay, for fast action!

We have limited space, so the first 16 players who pre-register or walk up will be guaranteed playing spots.  We will attempt to accomodate if more players arrive walking up.  Online registration closes at 2:00 pm.  Please arrive by 2:45 to check in.
