Not many players have the guts to play the dreaded Halloween Gambit. This tournament is not for those faint of heart. You have my guarantee that no boring game has ever begun with the Halloween Gambit. It has 100 players so I made it far earlier than the start date. The games begin on October 31 at midknight. (I'm sorry I just had to get that pun into there.) If lots of people join quickly it may start slightly earlier, just as long as Halloween arrives during the tournament, otherwise it isn't quite as awesome. Go here to see the custom trophies or here to see the opening. If you are a fan of the Halloween Gambit or would just like to get to know it, this is the tournament for you!
