If you do not know the rules to the games before the tournament , please check-in early enough for “warm-ups” when we train players in on the games they are not familiar with. It is unlikely that any one player will know all the games in the mix! The 4 different games will be determined by the players and the tournament director and posted before the competition. It will consist of a combination short & long boards below.
