Greetings chess.com!

The last prime prize number that was held was a massive success. Because of that, I've decided to hold ANOTHER one this Sunday! So if you are interested in winning FREE Diamond Memberships, make sure to read the rest of this blog.

When?

  • Sunday, Jan. 20th
  • 10 am PST
  • 1 pm EST
  • 7 pm CET

Where?
Right here at Chess.com! An hour before the tournament kicks off, the arena will be opened and everyone can join. For free! Just make sure you're a member of this club to join the arena: https://www.chess.com/club/bikfoot-hype

Format?
The tournament will consist of a three-hour arena where the time control will be 3+0 per game.

Prizes?
So glad you asked! Ten spots will be rewarded at the end of the tournament. The only catch is, they're all (apart from first place) prime numbers!

#1 - One year of Diamond membership
#2 - Three Months of Diamond membership
#3 - Three Months of Diamond membership
#5, #7, #11, #13, #17, #19 and #23 - One month of Diamond membership

All results are subject to review by the Chess.com Fair Play team. Prizes will be awarded after validation is complete.
