Hi Samuel,

The event in November will be the UK National Championships for UK players. Basically this tournament defines who is the British Champ. (Best player in Britain)

The eventS on 29th are open tournaments for anyone of any Nation. This can be won by anyone of any Nationality.

The clue is in the name.....British Open.

plus a World Championship event in Duel.


Hope this helps.

Ace

Cool, well lets get todays results then!

I'll have to see if I can afford the trip up north in November or not. Hope so.

One more question - which set of pieces are used at these tournaments? I only ever use the European set, i've no idea what's what with the other 2 styles!
