One thing that I overlooked when planning the 2022 Doeberl Cup was to increase the prize money for the Blitz event. There were over 120 players in 2021, although almost all the top players gave it a miss. Based on (a) the size of the field and (b) attracting stronger players, the prize pool for the 2022 Kinford Consulting Doeberl Cup Blitz has been increased 50% to $890. First prize is now $250 (up from $150), while other prizes have bee added (or increased).
Once again the tournament will take place on Saturday night (16th April) and will be both FIDE and ACF rated.

It is disappointing that there is less prize mone here than in the NSWCA blitz tournaments.
