Imagine if hans shoved something like this up his ass…for what?

A game in the US championship just ended in 10 moves. I know the feeling lol. https://chess24.com/en/watch/live-tournaments/us-championship-2022/7/1/6

It's quite late so I am probably being dumb but does black really need to resign there? Fairly sure he's going to lose a piece no matter what but bit early to throw in the proverbial towel

i've just started playing for the first time since I was a kid. way better at it now but still making dumb mistakes.

high level game if you lose a piece with no positional compensation its over xp

heh, love to play bullet chess

On move 55 of this game fuck this shit

bullet solves this

Whenever en passant presents itself it’s imperative that you execute
Coolest move in the game

I love the feeling of playing lower ranks and just feeling like a god

I love gettin suckas on the ropes early

this game is seriously annoying: https://www.funnyhowtheknightmoves.com/

thought the bump would be for some juicy tata steel chat, but let's see

AAAAAAARGH

okay, bottom right is where the magic happens

I've been enjoying Tata Steel a lot - first time I've followed a chess tournie for a while. Carlsen lost 2 games in a row but seems to be back on form now.

In other news this was an interesting game from John Bartholomew - also the opponent's comments made be lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VQu33G-_ls

we've all seen the Szabo game by now right

Incredible game, constantly shocked

noticed chess trending in the manosphere think it traces back to andrew tate figured he was just using it as a prop but it turns out he can play a little cause he learned from his father was an im https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emory_Tate

this defense the computer digs up is real wild stuff

Taking sides : playing stoned and drunk vs playing not stoned and drunk

magnus played texas holdem on a live stream last night. pretty fun watching him sweat!

its so funny that he resigned the world chess championship and is playing poker instead, he made the final table of wpt tourney a while ago iirc, also hes really good at fantasy soccer, magnus carlson good at games

he’d be so insanely good at poker if he studied, actually might not be fair

Magnus seems pretty funny, hopefully he doesn’t say some sort of Nordic Racial Oopsie on television

always a risk

just watching a few hands he likes to get in there and play some hands you love to see it

botez is chess too right

Saw the 7-2 cooler earlier

Ding is back. Exciting

et encore!

this is such fun

i retract

nothing has gone from being fun to being the least fun thing ever so quickly

honestly makes me regret getting into chess. time to turn away

chess life

I posted that^ when Ding froze in game 7 but actually I'm feeling absolutely sick for Nepo now

poor fuckin bastard
