Chess has been the greatest tool for keeping my ego in check. Credit it as the supreme humility device in my life

I love it when chess.com tells me I'm playing some niche opening. Excited to be playing the "Sicilian Defense: Open, Pelikán and Sveshnikov, Retreat Variation" today.

lmao maybe use some of that time to think about if you really want to put your king right between all my pieces, consider advancing those two nice pawns

I love playing non book moves and confounding the enemy. I usually lose but it’s fun as hell when I win

i started playing bullet and am now insane

Chess is life. Finally finding a way to win with black by going sicilian instead of my thouhgtless e5 response.
I love getting chessed out

the good thing about bullet is how weird the positions are the bad part is all the timeouts and that it makes you worse at chess

king on g5, both rooks and knight on starting squares, u were playing a clown i regret to say

I enjoy the flexibility and laissez faire that comes with playing lower level opponents. Moon shot strategies suddenly become possible
― calstars, Sunday, 10 July 2022 19:09 (three years ago)
I'd be interested to see how black's king has ended up on g5 when white's queen, queen's rook and king's cleric are all on their starting squares and the king's rook has apparently just moved for the first time

pretty funny reviewing bullet games and seeing obvious missed tactics on every move
― lag∞n, Monday, 11 July 2022 14:30 (three years ago)
im still 300+ points worse on bullet than blitz not sure im ever really gonna get it but its pretty fun to play a million games and just never think

Anyone seen “queens gambit?”I could watch ATJ play fake chess all day

Sadly the report doesn't say whether the robot was losing, or not:https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-62286017
"A robot broke a seven-year-old boy's finger during a chess match in Moscow last week, Russian news outlets report.
"The robot broke the child's finger," Sergey Lazarev, Moscow Chess Federation President, told Tass news agency. "This is of course bad.""

what does sam sloan think of the magnus/hans drama
― Allen (etaeoe), Monday, 19 September 2022 18:35 (three years ago)
magnus just does not want anything to do with the lad
Magnus Carlsen turned his webcam on, made one move, resigned, then turned his camera off and disappeared. He did not say anything. https://t.co/WPsUsktN8P— Motherboard (@motherboard) September 19, 2022

i don't blame him tbh
― Allen (etaeoe), Monday, 19 September 2022 22:57 (three years ago)
yeah i tend to trust magnus on this, and a number of other top players seem to be suspicious of hans too, but its a pretty weird situation where magnus is just being extremely passive aggressive
― lag∞n, Monday, 19 September 2022 23:04 (three years ago)
mb magnus is convinced that hans is cheating but doesnt have any hard proof
― lag∞n, Monday, 19 September 2022 23:05 (three years ago)
he admitted to cheating. twice. in tournaments. and chess.com implied it was worse than that! it's insane he's even invited to these tournaments.
