A "new" idea (?)

In Response To: A "new" idea (?) (Coolrey)

Three of the players that cashed last weekend were non-WC, so I think there is some hope for the average player in the Swiss movement format. Too, everybody gets a chance to play more than they otherwise would. Everyone gets at least four matches, and most folks get to play at least six matches, more than many can reasonably expect in a single-elimination format. At the same time, the system provides more chances for the strongest players, which IMHO is a good thing.
