In addition, many of the other Caribbean names have not been released, but it is almost a given that we will see the likes of FM Ryan Harper and perhaps players from Barbados, Martinique and Jamaica. Carl Jacobs wrote a piece for the Trinidad Guardian and gave more details.
Four International Masters from within the region are registered to play, including Humberto Pecorelli-Garcia of Cuba who will be defending his championship title. The others are Julio Ostos of Venezuela, Gerardo Lebredo of Cuba and Kevin Denny of Barbados. Among the countries listed to take part in the Chess Carnival are Barbados with a 26-member team, Martinique fielding 18 players, the US and Suriname. Several of T&T’s top juniors, including Kevin Cupid, U-18 champion; Christian Ammon, U-12 champion and Justin Labastide, U-8 champion, are expected to compete. One of Suriname’s promising youngsters, 11-year-old Calvin Tjong Tjin, who won the U-10 section of the tournament in 2007 and the U-12 category in the Barbados Open last year, is entered to play this year in the U-20 section.
Edison Raphael, president of the Foundation, stated that another important objective of the tournament “is to provide regional players with an opportunity to acquire and enhance their international rating without having to play in overseas tournaments which can be costly.” The tournament is generally well-run and very enjoyable.
