Please keep your phone near you for the text if a spot opens and/or include more than one phone number in your registration. If you don't respond we may move on to the next player depending on the time before the tournament begins and withdraw occurred. Your credit card will be charged once you moved up in to the Tournament. It's a player's responsibility to request a withdraw if you do not wish to play to remove you from the alternate list. On the day of the tournament, Tournament Director will contact you to confirm whether or not you are going to play if a withdraw occurs and your turn comes.
