The American Checker Federation (ACF) is
pleased to announce its 2013 National Freestyle Checkers Tournament! This
year's tournament honors Carl Reno, a master player in Go-As-You-Please or
freestyle checkers, and a longtime supporter of the ACF and the game. Carl
is best known as the author of The Work of The Pentium, a dynamic
checkers textbook covering new and unexplored opening lines. It was among
the first checkers books to integrate careful and substantial computer analysis,
changing the way we think about studying checkers forever! Copies of
Carl's book will be available at the tournament, and he's graciously agreed to
donate all proceeds to the ACF's Dream Young Fund, to benefit youth checkers.
You can also reserve your copy when you register for the tournament. Our
host for this tournament is the Holiday Inn in Cincinnati, Ohio, located on the
north I-275 loop, about 20 minutes from the Cincinnati Airport. The
Holiday Inn is offering us a great deal: a room rate of $71/night (plus tax), a
free hot breakfast buffet every morning of the tournament, and a free playing
room. To get those benefits, we need to guarantee them a certain amount of
business, so we're asking all tournament players to stay there for the duration
of the event. To make your reservation, call the hotel at (513) 563-8330
and ask for the American Checker Federation rate. You must reserve a room
by July 6 to receive the discount. Please reserve your rooms early, to
ensure we have enough space for everyone! During the tournament, you can
follow all the action-- including live video and round-by-round score updates--
here at acfnationals.com. Questions?
