Chess Points Jose Cucht, Rr"dent of Heraldica Imports in New York, may be changing the course of chess tournament history in America. In many Swiss tourneys, Large groups of players with average skills are used as cannon -fodder -easy marks for the tourney's master or expert level players who ul- timately will divide the tour- ney's top prizes. In several tourneys sponsored by Cuchi this past year, the average players have been the top players, and the best among them have won big money prizes. In the major Swiss tour- neys, usually, there are sev- eral sections. An average player can enter the top "open to all" section, play for the top money prizes, and serve as a punching bag for the masters in that sec- tion. Or the average player can enter a "class" section and compete against play- ers of comparable skills for, usuaully, cash prizes lower than those offered in the punching bag section. This year the World Open, which has probably the big- gest cash prizes of any open tourney anywhere, out of a total guaranteed prize fund of $46,000, allotted $12,800 for prizes in four sections for players under a 1600 rat- ing who chose to play against players of compara- ble skills. Compared with this was the Heraldica Im- ports under -1600 class tour- ney with a guaranteed prize fund of $21,500. But each player in these tourneys chooses a section and then competes for prizes offered in that tour- ney section. The largest sec- tion prize fund an average player could play for realist- ically in the world open was $3,400. But that same player could play for $9,250 in prizes in a section• in the Heraldica event - against . players with skills similar to those the player would meet in the World Open. The average player in this analysis has a U.S. Chess Federation rating of about 1400. The entry fee was roughly the same for both events: 572.30 in the World Open and $75 in the Heraldi- ca event. Jose Cuchi has sponsored several tourneys this year, trying a new format in each one by varying entry fees, prize funds and class struc- ture.Most of his events have been oriented toward the av- erage player, but he also has offered events for be- ginners and, recently, a grand master event. To introduce beginners to the game, he has sponsored tourneys with several hun- dred dollars in prizes and no entry fee. In November, he organized an interantional round robin at a category 8 rating (2437) with grand masters and masters from several countries. Jose Cuchi's tourneys are unique among the big open tourneys, and he is unique among mnav of America's major tourney organizers. He .i§ not trying to make a profit or break even in the events he organizes. He has lost money on most of his tourneys.
