i love when ILX gets all chessed out (ILX hot chess action is here)

i get annoyed when ppl let the clock run down instead of resigning but then i think about them closing a tab in anger and its funny

I’ve rage uninstalled the chess app on my phone more times than I’d like to admit

love to trade a minor piece for two pawns totally destroying an opponents defense

double up those pawns bro

roguelike chess:

Sacrificing for position is my m o

a successful sacrifice feels so good

Chogue is awesome. The sound of a piece sliding somewhere in the dark!

just played the funniest game ever

e4 e5
d4 d5
Nc3 Bb4

white resigns in disgust. computer has him +0.67 but the opening is too sick. he will play against a normal person next, he hopes

lol

the game that just pushed me over 15hundo the opponent resigned inexplicably too material was even i had a better but not dominant position and he was way up on time, i looked at the engine analysis to see if there was some sick tactic i was missing but there wasnt, maybe they just had to be somewhere idk

jo********tin declined a draw
jo********tin resigns

is there no more beautiful combination of words

what openings do u guys play i do queens gambit w white, sicilian and english w black

i play all the openings in a sort of improvised fever dream. it is no good for my rating

ruy lopez white / scandi black

p awesome tho ive moved the wrong pawn a few times and just gone w it and it was cool, done p well iirc

scandinavian is wild xp i like when ppl play that v me its usually a p fun game, i always take

Taking is the best move for white iirc I always do it when someone plays scandi against me and anecdotally I’ve found ppl that don’t take don’t do great

yeah i think its generally agreed that its best

i'm addicted to ben finegold videos

i cant deal w his presentation/jokes, i like jerry (aka chess network)

both of them are good but as a proud european i am far more commonly seen with the holy trinity of agad/mato/suren

agadmator def my most watched

I need to mix up my opening repertoire. I play Italian or Queens Gambit with white. Then just copy what white does for black (eg. 1. e4 2. e5 1. d4 2. d5) I always lose really badly when I try Sicilian.

For streamers its all about John Bartholomew for me. How can you resist that winning smile?

friends, theyre playing for all the marbles https://deadspin.com/magnus-carlsen-and-fabiano-caruanas-fight-for-the-world-183020884

will this be the best WC of modern times? imo....maybe

apparently carlsen has thrown away a winning position

Who’s that that doofus with the big teeth?

nakamura

Somehow I think a random game in a park somewhere would provide more entertainment than this game

there was a lot of moving the pieces around
