2007 Washington
State
Championship / Premier
The 2007 Washington State Championship / Premier tournaments were conducted as round-robins the weekends of February
10-11 and 17-19, 2007 in Seattle. Rounds began at 10:00 AM and 5:00 PM on the
weekends, and at 1:00 PM on President's Day, Monday, February 19. The playing sites
were Walsh Construction in Seattle for the two weekends, and the Seattle Chess
Club in Shoreline on the final holiday Monday.
There is a requirement that each player must
annotate at least one game and submit it to the
tournament director. Prizes will not be paid until
this small obligation is completed. These notes will be used in Northwest Chess
Magazine so that the Championship event while serving primarily the best
players, may also be a service to the main membership.
