Prizes for DBTHS May 2026 swiss
1st $180
2nd $90
U1500 $65 *
U1300 $40
* Unrated players are eligible for 1st or 2nd overall or the U1500 prize. Unrated players are players that show no rating at ratings.uschess.org. It appears that some provisionally rated players with few games do not show ratings. All ratings are as assigned by the Registration site, which appear to be Regular Rating rather than Rapid/Quick as would normally apply to this tournament.
Registered players can be viewed: https://www.chessregister.com/registrants?event_key=lfM_oW5mV2SG_j2MBLMpss1V04Ucuw73-2nkGVypuPY%3D
We will be using accelerated pairings. I hope to have the pairings done tonight for a quick start in the morning, but will leave it open for withdrawals overnight.

We’re getting many inquiries about teaching chess to kids. We don’t currently run classes, but can usually teach the rules one-on-one at meetings. We have materials we can hand out. We will try to summarize local opportunities to learn and play. Watch here.
