The rules
- Opening Day Freeroll: Sat 24 Oct 2026 · 18:00 UTC · 60-minute Arena · games at $0 stake.
- $250 in prizes to the top 10: 1st $75 · 2nd $50 · 3rd $30 · 4th $20 · 5th $15 · 6th–10th $12 each.
- Free entry. Eligibility: open to every player who has made at least one deposit on ChessBit before the start.
- Register in the app under Tournaments.
- Ranking: points first. On equal points, the higher rating for this time control at the start wins the higher place (for a late entry: the rating when you joined), then more wins, then whoever registered first.
- A paid place held by a player on 0 points who never made a move in a finished game stays empty: its share goes back to ChessBit, and nobody below moves up.
- Prizes are credited after our fair-play (Argus) check of the prize winners’ games.
- 18+.
- Our Terms of Service apply, including section 15 (Promotions & Promotional Funds). Not available where prohibited.
