Chessfriend.com is a place were a lot of corr. chess BIG fide (iccf) rating players (GM ,IM, ETC.) are playing in rated money prise tournaments, and they are not feel bad at all to pay a registration fee, and play for such prizes. And this, despite of a server wich not offer all such possibilities as slow chess.
I am just wondering how many players here would be ready to play for money: to pay , let say, 10, 30, or 50 $ tax for entry and expected to win 500, 1000 $ for win in a mounthly 20-30 people rapid tourn. .....
Is not a joke, just think about it....
