December 2012 Tournaments in Budapest

The end of the year is almost here. Next month has a couple of tournaments offered. For tournament notices see Hungarian Chess Federation Chess.hu (usually ads are in Hungarian). A bit of effort is needed to decipher to ads but the cheap entry fees are worth the effort.

Coming tournaments for December are as follows

The entry fees in Budapest are a bargain!! There is also a Budapest Tournament discount card for 1,000HUF which wiil get you a 10% off the EF for participating tournaments.

During the year there are many 1 game/day tournaments(Opens and RRs) which are not well advertised but also good value and reasonably priced. I make an effort play in as many tournaments as possible while I live in Budapest.

I plan to play both these tournaments and blog about them.

First Saturday also has a monthly series of RR tournaments- See Firstsaturday Pogramme 2012-2013
