[summer oar]

thats fair, I’ve been doing a lot of analysis from the black side and experimenting on Lion setups when white does not challenge the centre early with d4 and c4 after 1. d4

[umbral nacelle]

That's true bro but I heard it's also a gambit 🥀

[neat sand]

Prince of Persia refrence in this day and age is crazy

[shadow obsidian]

Imagine this but at 200 elo

[unique cosmos]

Peak game

[umbral nacelle]

Someone teach chess to me 💔🥀

[limpid sleet]

bro I played prince of persia in october but my brother said focus on studies u are on 10th grade 🥀 so I deleted it

[floral trellis]

I would quit chess

[limpid sleet]

tf

[unique cosmos]

ive played this numerous times in bullet

[shadow obsidian]

People just wanna have fun

[neat sand]

I've allways been a Bobby fan, but kasporov was a beast in his own right. Sadly kramnik beat him when he got older and near retirement

[umbral nacelle]

What vro 🥀

[floral trellis]

I wanna win

[hollow sapphire]

I could try

[umbral nacelle]

Thanks vro 🥀

Teach me please

[limpid sleet]

ig I still have forgotten sands of time

[neat sand]

Nah listen to your brother he is right trust. Theres allways time to game after studying.

[shadow obsidian]

Have fun before winning bro

[shadow obsidian]

I HATE YOU

[limpid sleet]

yes 🥺

[hollow sapphire]

You up for a nonrated chess game

[magic shard]

he only won because of the berlin

[floral trellis]

I try but I’m too competitive, I feel dumb when I lose

[shadow obsidian]

Ima pass my blitz peak this week watch

[umbral nacelle]

Sure vro 🥀

[umbral nacelle]

🥀🥀

[summer oar]

I think its actually simpler than kings indian and i can see it being effective in bullet cuz your opponent can easily get careless and throw away his advantage

[unique cosmos]

Only siths deal in absolutes

[shadow obsidian]

Blame society

[neat sand]

Exactly. That's why I've allways said kramniks #1 title shouldn't have counted lol.

[unique cosmos]

yeah its really boring to play into

[limpid sleet]

I will try it after my Boards exam hehe

[floral trellis]

Society didn’t make me blunder

[glossy axle]

queenside playt

[umbral nacelle]

🥀🥀 good luck

[unique cosmos]

blame the bank owners

[limpid sleet]

but I play Gta v nowadays 🥀

[magic shard]

nah I can't agree with that he won the title fairly

[floral trellis]

I’m so nervous to play again, but if I win new ELO peak 🫩

[shadow obsidian]

Its alright bro… you’ll get better

[unique cosmos]

just win

[summer oar]

i mean London players hate me so

[limpid sleet]

me too cuz I hate lundon

[void depot]

play when you feel less nervous

[unique cosmos]

i have a really nice winrate against the london, fluctuates around 68-70%

[hollow sapphire]

https://link.chess.com/play/uUiidL

[unique cosmos]

thats mostly bullet tho

[summer oar]

I like playing lines which the gms and youtubers don’t cover

[unique cosmos]

i hate mainline stuff

[summer oar]

my opponents $20 chessable course when I play my pet line:

[halcyon charm]

Black to Play. What is the eval of this position?

[whole warren]

rook b8

[reef canyon]

<@&745328830649991179> there's no neymar on this edit not chess related

[unique cosmos]

what is that pawn doing there

[whole warren]

There is lol

[magic shard]

pet line players when they realize I've prepped for their pet line too

[whole warren]

OH FRICK WRONG CHANNEL

hes in the doctors room faking an injury

[neat sand]

😈

[floral trellis]

I’m gonna be nervous regardless I’m going back and forth in the same stupid Elo I just wanna get past this, I can’t plateau a 920 player 🫩

[hollow sapphire]

I sent you a game

[summer oar]

noooooooooo

[halcyon charm]

black played 3. f5

[unique cosmos]

no father versus 2 fathers

[subtle path]

White wins 100%

[void depot]

hmm, just play your best ig then

[reef canyon]

which one is the no father side

[unique cosmos]

i cant choose

[neat sand]

Not at the end lol

[floral trellis]

I’ll try

[neat sand]

Crazy

[reef canyon]

dude what

i wanna try the mother version but i dont wanna risk getting muted

parentless? orphan?

[glossy axle]

probably +0.7

[unique cosmos]

thats moreso a catalan tbh

[halcyon charm]

the engine thinks its a slight advantage for black

[unique cosmos]

do what i said, no father

[neat sand]

The rook lift there at the end forces a queen trade for a rook, and then the rook will also be forced to be traded later after. Here ill play against 3200 bot in that position one moment

[reef canyon]

"no daddy in yo arms"

[unique cosmos]

no milk

no leche

[summer oar]

i mean Nf6 looks popular even though it runs into Bg5 but maybe Qe7, then Be6, trade off that bishop. but black has to be lost there right

[subtle path]

Okay I just realized that was a gif and not a still image of a starting board(I have gif autoplay off)

[trail vortex]

is there any titled player here

[unique cosmos]

yea @wild meadow thats magnus

[reef canyon]

@odd escarp is also here

[trail vortex]

I need to talk to him rn

or any of them

[unique cosmos]

go ahead

[void depot]

i played pretty well

[reef canyon]

fym both of u got no mistakes/misses/blunders

[thorn cliff]

Nice job, Ted.

[unique cosmos]

average stonewall game

[jade mulch]

Anyone wants Fruits

[reef canyon]

thats just chess com game review hardglazing both of u and none of yall even notice

[jade mulch]

I have so manyy

[summer oar]

stonewall my goat

[unique cosmos]

if only i had some oranges

[unique cosmos]

the most annoying opening in bullet

[umbral nacelle]

Do it .

[jade mulch]

I have best quality

What's your fav Fruits chat

[tired hamlet]

bill nye makes babies cry

[void depot]

its probably cus as you go up in rank the game review becomes more accurate, at the lower ranks it tries to evaluate based on the ELO of the game

[reef canyon]

rambutan

[jade mulch]

😭😭😭😭😭😭

[summer oar]

i mean its annoying in general thats why I like it

[unique cosmos]

im much happier playing against the bird as a colle player

[jade mulch]

Why do GM don't chat here

[unique cosmos]

why don't NBA players play at random pickup basketball games

[neat sand]

Here ya go. So after the queen trades for the rook you can see why white loses.

[summer oar]

personally when I’m playing bird/dutch structures, I like to delay f4/f5 and wait for my opponent to make moves so I don’t fall into some weird trap

[jade mulch]

Yesshhhh we should be GM and talk here

But only GM I can text is Good Morning rn 😞

[unique cosmos]

i like queenside castling with the colle set up agaisnt the bird cuz it leads to hella fun games

[strong locust]

Guysssss
Did the chesis app glitch or is multiple variations free now

[summer oar]

i mean opposite sides castling games in general are fun by default

[neat sand]

Uhhhhh

[unique cosmos]

bongcloud

[unique cosmos]

not always

i play the modern scandi to maximize opposite side castling opportunities

[summer oar]

well u gotta make the judgement call first that ur gonna win the race before castling but its aight

[patent patrol]

Na6 is #2

Nvm it’s a6

[unique cosmos]

the best is when you can just straight up defend regardless

[summer oar]

i did this but on the white side 🤣 as black my full french repertoire is queenside castling

[patent patrol]

My French repertoire is the alekhines

[limpid sleet]

any great opening as white

[unique cosmos]

queenside castling in the Scandi is probably the most fun chess possible

[limpid sleet]

aggressive/risky/complicated stuff

[unique cosmos]

its the guy who has everyone added

[summer oar]

i have similar ideas yeah, against nc3 and nd2 ive experimented with nc6 but theres also the rubinstein with dxe4 Nf6 Nxf6 gxf6

[neat sand]

The grung/grog

[patent patrol]

I play the improved Steinitz variation out of a transposition

[limpid sleet]

tf

[summer oar]

its also very risky, i found safer ways to castle queenside when im playing french. ive also done it when playing dutch

[patent patrol]

It’s a really nice line

In a regular French u would play nf6 a bit early to provoke e5

[unique cosmos]

the modern scandi makes it safer, but you get less queenside castling opportunities if the opponent just plays the refutations

[neat sand]

My bad im thinking the grob lmfao. I meant the grunfeld 😂

[summer oar]

I like the line e4 e6 d4 d5 Nc3 Nc6 Nf3 Nf6 e5 Ne4 Bd3 Bb4

[neat sand]

But the grob works too

If you are looking for risky and high theory openings

[unique cosmos]

i unironically have a bad record against the grob

[patent patrol]

Ne4 sounds interesting

[hollow sapphire]

So how have you been long time no see and how goes your chess

[patent patrol]

The Polish kills me idk why

[unique cosmos]

i swear it has to be smurfs playing those openings

[limpid sleet]

yeah its great but kinda drawish + I have PSTD moments with it so no 💔

[summer oar]

yah its the whole point of my Nc6 french variation

[limpid sleet]

hiii

[zenith mantle]

hia

[summer oar]

u can also get it i think from the e4 nc6 move order, especially when ur opponent tries to play 2. nf3 hoping to return to e4 e5

[neat sand]

Honestly don't blame you. There's only 3 people who play the grob. 1. The guy who missclicked/drunk. 2. The guy who doesn't know it and is learning. Or 3. The guy who knows it and only plays it 😭

[slim gulch]

Chat

[limpid sleet]

hru man long time no see fr I had stoppped playing chess but started it again for my tournaments and u? :) @hollow sapphire

[patent patrol]

I just put it in and it looks interesting

I used to have one French game with no theory and I played some weird shit

[unique cosmos]

its always 3, and theyre the hardest players to get out of the opening with because they know EVERY trap

[zenith mantle]

ubbh

[neat sand]

I dont blame you 💀

[neat sand]

Honestly. I straight up abort of I see the grob first 😂

Yes welcome to batter theory

[hollow sapphire]

Still playing chess dispute how my life is currently going haven't tryed going to a tournament though

[zenith mantle]

im too lazys

[summer oar]

yep i know this line as well

[limpid sleet]

oh, btw u play for fun right

[patent patrol]

It worked out really nicely but I was lower elo

[nimble arch]

???

[patent patrol]

Just played bullshit

[nimble arch]

none of us are pro

how would we not play for fun

do we play to suffer? maybe some do

[hollow sapphire]

Ya I do I still don't play rated but I have gotten better though

[limpid sleet]

lol true

[zenith mantle]

i linked it to my rlly rlly rlly old acc lmao

[limpid sleet]

titled players does 🥀

[zenith mantle]

i dont use it anymore

[summer oar]

i remember a game where andreikin completely crushed caruana in a speed chess championship in this variation.. and gothamchess was roasting the 💩 out of andreikin until andreikin won the game

[zenith mantle]

well sometimes i do

but only whem im bored

i played a lot more recently tho

https://tenor.com/view/shocking-is-this-why-the-earth-spins-earth-spin-cat-gif-13056704822525175056

[hollow sapphire]

I saw a funny chess joke on this one 10% fun 90% chasing elo like it owes them money 😂

[zenith mantle]

so cool

[patent patrol]

It’s rly interesting

It makes bc5 a lot stronger for pressure with the open file for the rook

White can’t play bf4 cuz they run into g5

I had played it the same way with bc5 in the actual game

[hollow sapphire]

Would you be up for a nonrated chess game?

[zenith mantle]

https://tenor.com/view/ultrakill-sisyphus-sisyphus-prime-monologue-shlorper-gif-10878873525656341574

[limpid sleet]

sre

[summer oar]

the reason why i came up with nc6 in these french variations is cuz if i castle queenside, ill have a really solid pawn formation

[hollow sapphire]

https://link.chess.com/play/ii4vZt

[patent patrol]

Like white was trash but this was still the fundamental way for black to try and play

[summer oar]

nice

[summer oar]

@patent patrol btw i found an improvement to my anti maroczy in kalash. radjabov variation

just looked at some of his games, seems like he mains kalash quite a bit

[patent patrol]

Looks like shirov was ahead of his time

That line is interesting I think I’m way too bad with the sicilian tho

[summer oar]

i love ur sicilian repertoire though

[patent patrol]

Rly I don’t

I like mine as white

I play terrible as black in sicilian stuff

[summer oar]

i mean when im white i play closed sicilian and the delayed wing gambit

[patent patrol]

I like the Kalashnikov but I’m not good at it

[neat sand]

I've allways debated on going it just because ik NO one ever plays against it 😂

[patent patrol]

If u want a weird one I also played the Godiva sicilian

[summer oar]

bro this person spit out like 20 moves of theory then hung her queen

[patent patrol]

Judit polgar and Kramnik would play that a lot

[craggy sparrow]

Yo anyoje wanna ply a match rq

yo bet

[patent patrol]

Bro when I was trying to get to 1800

[strong apex]

am back

[patent patrol]

I faced the most prepped person ever in the Kalashnikov

[craggy sparrow]

can u challenfe me

[patent patrol]

And it felt like getting punched in the stomach with stress

Dead equal for like 25 moves

[strange portal]

uh whats is it

[patent patrol]

And I blundered

[craggy sparrow]

Quittingchess1000

how about irs

[summer oar]

battle of attrition fr

[strange portal]

?

[patent patrol]

He was locked in bro

Not even cheating and I didn’t think he was either just playing monster chess

[craggy sparrow]

ur user

[summer oar]

I’ve looked a bit into it, looks fun to play

[dense wolf]

Hi

[strange portal]

1nostalgia

[patent patrol]

Free wins in fast time controls if u like that and transposes into some kan or schevenigen (apparently idk what those lines are fully)

[strange portal]

imma play a few to get my rating back up real q

[summer oar]

i had a repertoire for scheveningen and dragon structures too so im alright

[craggy sparrow]

aight

[summer oar]

kan and taimanov have some Bb4 lines as well but i dont play into them cuz i dont know em

[patent patrol]

I have started playing the dragon against the English a bit

But u can maroczy bind as white

C4 is alr there so ya

[summer oar]

im gonna play the breyer variation at some point once white knows the bind

[patent patrol]

It’s fun and surprising but Qd1 is a much better endgame for white

[summer oar]

i know im not gonna play it longer than 3+2

[patent patrol]

Fairs

I just didn’t know until much higher rated players told me

[summer oar]

and also maroczy bind is generally not easy to play when u have low time

[patent patrol]

I think it’s about as solid u can be as white lowkey but it’s def feasible for both sides in blitz

[summer oar]

its easier to attack than defend in blitz and bullet so like

[patent patrol]

Ngl I don’t trust myself playing anything more than the alekhines even in rapid

[sour olive]

How can I get an honorary GM title

[trail vortex]

Ladies and Gentlemen, I have experimented with many closed, tight, and positional chess openings for black and have just invented a new opening for Black that is universal and probably the most closed yet functional and playable opening ever created for black

[summer oar]

do u know the four queens variation of the alekhine, its my favourite alekhine variation other than the emory tate one which is also crazy

[limpid sleet]

once upon a time I also asked this question

[patent patrol]

This is in rated rapid games as black

[patent patrol]

Four pawns yea hopefully not four queens

[summer oar]

no im not kidding, four queens

[umbral nacelle]

Leave discord, hope on chess 24/7 drop out of school

[patent patrol]

Never heard

[umbral nacelle]

And don't be good at math

[patent patrol]

The Cambridge gambit against the four pawns is another line I think is one of those crazy ones

It just loses

[trail vortex]

I will call this opening "The Hedgehog Style Hippopotomus Defence"

[patent patrol]

I’ve won most of my games with it but it just loses

[patent patrol]

Bru wat

[trail vortex]

I invented the opening

[patent patrol]

G6 b6 e6 d6 and then u put ur bishops in the middle

[patent patrol]

Is this what I’m hearing

[patent patrol]

Wtf 😭

Show me the line

[radiant swan]

1cbbc actually got locked out 😔

[patent patrol]

I always transpose into the French with 2.nc3 so I don’t ever see this shit

[trail vortex]

but its more universal than hedgehog, more stable than hippo, and fully functional, It is the ultimate Black Positional Opening

[patent patrol]

Did I get it right

[exotic sapphire]

how do u get the beta tester flair role thing

[sour olive]

I deserve it tho lmao

I can claim special needs fr

[cobalt turret]

Who tryna get humbled

[summer oar]

e4 nf6 nc3 d5 e5 d4 exf6 dxc3 d4 cxb2 fxg7 bxa1=Q gxh8=Q

[patent patrol]

The problem I would have is my opponent would just play h4 h5 h6

[trail vortex]

no u didnt traditional hippo is also a6 and b6 too

[radiant swan]

blundermus prime needs your humbling

[trail vortex]

with knights on e7 and d7

[exotic sapphire]

same twin

[radiant swan]

🙏

[patent patrol]

Ok so the knights go in the middle

[cobalt turret]

Hey buddy

[patent patrol]

But that’s not what a hedgehog is

[umbral nacelle]

Yo vro🥀

[cobalt turret]

Sybau @sour olive

[limpid sleet]

u play gud bro @hollow sapphire <3

[radiant swan]

wsp vro

[slow folio]

yo it's mini cb, hey there vro!

[trail vortex]

yes, that's a hippo, I combined both ideas and made a new opening that makes the best of both worlds AND is universal

[cobalt turret]

@sour olive you wanna get humbled bro ?

[exotic sapphire]

omg

how do u get the flair beta tester role

[sour olive]

You have to be titled to play me

[umbral nacelle]

Vro gf left me 🥀

[radiant swan]

wsg clark

[cobalt turret]

You scared 😂😂

[slow folio]

i'm eli vro

[sour olive]

I’m not trolling

[cobalt turret]

Your actually sorry 😂😂

[radiant swan]

good for you vro she was the reason your potential of being a great chess player and a no lifer was held back

[summer oar]

nah u gotta take the challenge, why decline four queens variation 🥀

[sour olive]

You have to be at least a CM. Even that’s tough

[cobalt turret]

Only people who can’t play chess say stuff like that

[patent patrol]

Ahhh but white would never do d4

[cobalt turret]

Must be horrible

[umbral nacelle]

...,🥀

[hollow sapphire]

^_^ I know I just don't like playing rated 💀 I'm also not a bro

[slow folio]

what if her gf is 2000+ rated

[summer oar]

i would if i was white xD

[patent patrol]

Four queens is crazy

[umbral nacelle]

Nah she played 6 games and lost All 6 and is rated 296 🥀

[sour olive]

I could have a elo of 10 that wouldn’t change the situation

[summer oar]

i saw it in an eric rosen video and his opponent wanted six queens

[hollow sapphire]

I sent you a game but you dipped out on me 😂

[patent patrol]

That’s a funny line to actually watch play out

[slow folio]

ok then she left you would help you fr 🥀

[exotic sapphire]

296 is generous

[cobalt turret]

Just say your not good

[robust furnace]

Chat I think I have OCD 💔

[umbral nacelle]

😂🥀

[patent patrol]

But the bishops would go there in a hedgehog

[sour olive]

You don’t know me bro it’s ok

[dull blaze]

is that even a real thing?

[sour olive]

You got a lot of people in here that would play you

[umbral nacelle]

Yea vro 🥀

[patent patrol]

https://www.chess.com/openings/Ruy-Lopez-Opening-Berlin-Improved-Steinitz-Hedgehog-Variation

[cobalt turret]

Ok keep running 😂

[robust furnace]

Yes, it's a disorder that you will experience some day in your life

[slow folio]

@radiant swan Yoru's bf is an example why you should feel sad when your gf left you

[dull blaze]

nah I won't

[robust furnace]

It's not uncommon, it's kinda common

[umbral nacelle]

She knows I'm ranked 1# in our country and she stalks my chess account 🥀🥀

[slow folio]

what country 🥀

[umbral nacelle]

Oman 🥀

[patent patrol]

I need to watch more eric Rosen I think he is cool and makes cool content but I get so bored watching chess players

[umbral nacelle]

[slow folio]

oh man

[sour olive]

How can I be scared when I play the greatest players in the world lol I played one non titled player by mistake

[summer oar]

nice is this ur anti spanish pet line 💀

[trail vortex]

so here is how to play the Hedgehog Style Hippopotomus defence: Play the Hippopotomus defence, and then make a middle exchange because the main problem of the hippo is a big center for white, once that is resolved with middle exchange (like how its done in the hedgehog) the position would be more closed than the Hippo and hedgehog yet stay as functional as the Hippo AND white's big center is gone for the moment

[robust furnace]

Like I want everything to be perfect, and I get anxious when I don't do it like the chess board and chess pieces for example, I want everything to be in the middle and be "perfect" so I have OCD

[umbral nacelle]

Greatest from the bottom you mean vroski🥀

[sour olive]

Yeah yall got it 😂

[hollow sapphire]

[umbral nacelle]

No vro playing blitz now 🥀

[summer oar]

[trail vortex]

yall play whatever yall like but this will become a really great opening and hopefully they'll realize I invented this variation of the hippo

[umbral nacelle]

She logged in my I sta account and I found out that she's in salalah , she went yesterday 🥀

[south bobcat]

Anyone up for 2 hours match unrated

@naive jackal is this your first watch of the queens gambit

[south bobcat]

[hollow sapphire]

I could make a blitz or wait for you to be free for a game but you did say yes to a game then not play one

[trail vortex]

Not_Bobby-Fischer

[south bobcat]

I remember Youuu Hobb on chess.com broo

[umbral nacelle]

Yea vro was waiting for you to come but dk what happened next vro 🥀

You can play random vro 🥀 some other time

[stable charm]

https://www.chess.com/openings/Alapin-Sicilian-Defense-Barmen-Modern-Line
This is my favorite Sicilian as white

[radiant swan]

dont be sad vro next time she comes back tell her to piss off cuz you gotta LCOK IN

[patent patrol]

neo arkhangelsk is a sexy name but this specific line here is actually the moller according to ppl

chess.com gives it the incorrect name

[stable charm]

Wow

[hollow sapphire]

...

[nocturne plover]

Hmm normal this is just 1 line of alapin there are many others which are a lot more interesting

[stable charm]

I generally play alpine lines against the Sicilian

[naive jackal]

Huh?

[umbral nacelle]

We have exams going on and during the time she was telling to break up she said that after exams she'll come to me and we'll fix things between our relationship 🥀

[summer oar]

i ain’t letting you play d4 that fast my guy 🤣🤣

[sour olive]

Yeah this chat so toxic lol

[stable charm]

[umbral nacelle]

You kept anti GM In your bio vro 🥀

[stable charm]

I haven't gone on since I tilted from 1100 to 800

[nocturne plover]

Would you play this as white or black

[nocturne plover]

Tell the moves still seems better for white

[stable charm]

White
I never play black Sicilians, Caro kann all the way

[sour olive]

Yeah I’m at war with them

[nocturne plover]

Umm do you realise black has a queen and white doesnt

[summer oar]

its better for white obviously but they will be expecting d5 or nf6 so you can play some kind of d6/e6/g6 shenanigans before they strike with d4

[limpid sleet]

tf vro started coaching

[nocturne plover]

Hmm fair interesting line at the least

[radiant swan]

nah vro lock in for your chess you gotta say no to being taken

[nocturne plover]

💀🥶

[stable charm]

Free rook, and like I said I REFUSE to play black Sicilians
Even if that means playing down a queen with white

I hate playing the Sicilian as blavk

[lone totem]

whichever side I've studied the position for

[hollow sapphire]

Vro said yes to a game then was a no show

[nocturne plover]

Bro na are you js dumb tbh bro can play queen down but not another opening

[umbral nacelle]

🥀 she says we'll fix things and when I tell her she's the problem since she doesn't want to improve she says everytime I'm the one causing fights between us and that I always blame her 🥀 who else should I blame if she's the one making mistakes vro

[umbral nacelle]

Yes bro 🥀

[stable charm]

No
I

[sonic fossil]

guys

[summer oar]

good answer

[sonic fossil]

what advice do yall have for opening

[radiant swan]

shes the mistake vro your life would be so much better without her trust

[slow folio]

don't study opening, just use your own opening principle that looks legit

[sonic fossil]

is king e5 better?

[stable charm]

Play the scotch, spainish, Caro kann or kings Indian

[umbral nacelle]

After breaking up not even a week and starting hanging out with boys, sending snaps and going out alone when I clearly told her not to, making female friends who are crazy and we're also a part in our break up since they motivate her 🥀

[summer oar]

follow opening principles, stick to like 1-2 openings for white and black and know your middle game plans 👍

[slow folio]

developing, castling, get every piece for the attack/defend

[latent crystal]

White probably

fxg5 Qh5+

[pallid vine]

What if fxe5?

[timber badge]

its so funny

[brittle ridge]

Bro he just lose the knight qh5 is not even effective

[timber badge]

and enjoyable

[dull blaze]

against advance I go ne7 nec6 b6 ba6 against tarrasch be7 against paulsen I play bb4 and nc6 against exchange I just do some random bullshit and thats pretty much it

[magic shard]

bro thinks he's hikaru

[dull blaze]

black sacked a knight on e5 and then it was a draw I think

[timber badge]

wtf is paulsen bro

[pallid vine]

Ok thnx

[lone totem]

it is vro

[dull blaze]

nc3

[summer oar]

whats your opinions on f4 lines, shirov gambit, Rg1 and b3 (basically esipenko did the magnus sicilian counter)
against the philidor

[brittle ridge]

Dude he didnt play g6 come on

[timber badge]

i mean you are fine if you know ur lines

[dull blaze]

wait nvm it was something else

[stable charm]

Bro I have ANOTHER Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow
My dads side hosts it after my moms so everyone can go to both of there side of the family

[pallid vine]

Why not castle first instead of Nf3

[fringe anvil]

I just reviewed my game and was like "Oh I played actually so well, why did I lose this??" - I was looking at opponents moves

[timber badge]

also that b3 line is js majorly about winning through your understanding ngl

[magic shard]

3. Nc3 is called the paulsen variation and 3. e5 c5 4. c3 Nc6 5. Nf3 is called the paulsen attack

[pallid vine]

It's not about you playing good... It's more about ur opponent playing better than u

[lone totem]

wait what eve dropped

[timber badge]

i was js calling 3.Nc3 mainline vro 💔

[dull blaze]

bro honestly i dont even like closed positions why do i play the french

[magic shard]

tbh I almost never hear people calling it the paulsen

[timber badge]

play philidor

[summer oar]

i love closed positions personally

[timber badge]

so goated

[dull blaze]

im good bro

im not that down bad just yet

[summer oar]

u can play it against most openings even, white doesn’t even have to play e4

[pallid vine]

Closed positions are tough to understand for a beginner and intermediate players

[stable charm]

https://tenor.com/view/noisey-sees-you-pizza-tower-the-noise-peppino-gif-10385903665275465185

[summer oar]

trust me all d4 system players hate the philidor too

[dull blaze]

yeah im a beginner so

[magic shard]

you've played it against me though

[stable charm]

As a Spanish player I also do

[lone totem]

philidor is free space gng

[dull blaze]

yeah cause i was getting cooked in everything else

[summer oar]

philidor players start with d6 nowadays, not e5

[pallid vine]

Play with longer time controls... It'll surely help

[dull blaze]

nah i only play blitz

[stable charm]

saying ts assuming people play that opening

[timber badge]

its peak

[pallid vine]

As a beginner, u must avoid playing too much blitz

[dull blaze]

blitz is fun tho

[summer oar]

d6 is the preferred option because it provokes nc3

[pallid vine]

Fun but not instructive

[dull blaze]

who cares if its instructive

i just play for fun

im just a beginner

[stable charm]

At that point just play a caro kann

[timber badge]

also most ppl who play rg1 against philidor dont even know theory

[pallid vine]

Keep playing then

[summer oar]

thebutcher has a nice video on it

[timber badge]

yeah i play rg1 against philidor

[stable charm]

https://tenor.com/view/lumberjack-cake-clash-royale-emote-tongue-gif-1831301438162296919

[pallid vine]

Caro kann - The Goated 🐐

[timber badge]

💀 if iever play e4 and face philidor

also i use move order trick in mainline sometimes

it works so

[brittle ridge]

I play d4 qxd4 bb5

[magic shard]

miodrag perunovic is the goat sometimes
other times he gives lines that were not for me

[pallid vine]

For bringing opponent out of prep

[brittle ridge]

Or something else

[timber badge]

no

[dull blaze]

yes sir

[timber badge]

ppl js automatically play normal setup as they do in the mainline in philidor xD

[lone totem]

h3 g4 trust

[timber badge]

and get cooked

[tired hamlet]

time to floss and brush my teef

[timber badge]

this looks so bad

[dull blaze]

bro people be doing too much in the philidor

[lone totem]

i mean its space 💔

[dull blaze]

they realized that they can just play g4 and get away with it

[pallid vine]

Even who comes to play online chess with prep

[dull blaze]

since when did people get this smart

[timber badge]

@magic shard someone is throwing shots on u

[stable charm]

If this was a Spanish than ig it's mediocre but here it's bad

[dull blaze]

also i like this with the knight on e2-g3

[summer oar]

its basically like keres attack, why philidor was rarely played, is same why pure scheveningen was rarely played. its an idea when blacks lsb is blocked

[magic shard]

I saw what you deleted

[pallid vine]

I meant to say about Beginners or lower rated than 2000

[strong locust]

White to play and not lose
You all are never gonna find the best move
Computers are such a scum bag

[tired hamlet]

we all saw what u deleted bud

[strong locust]

What

[magic shard]

💀

[woeful grail]

you want one move?

[strong locust]

Yes
The only move that doesn't lose probably

[dull blaze]

b4 is worth a try i guess

h5 bxc kc7 looks toast though

[woeful grail]

nf2? to try and reroute the knight ig

[summer oar]

probably either Nxf3 or Bxf3 and just remove black’s pawns

[strong locust]

My opponent lost after bxf3
And no it's not nxf3 either

[timber badge]

maybe h4

[stable charm]

To tight
Bh5 doesn't blunder

[timber badge]

and pray u dont lose

[strong locust]

Ok guys wanna know the ans

[dull blaze]

nah

[stable charm]

What

[woeful grail]

watch it be a king move

[strong locust]

Nope it's b4!!!!!
And its just around -1

[magic shard]

siverking casually being a goat again

[summer oar]

b4 makes sense

[dull blaze]

how is b4 only -1

dont u just lose a piece

[summer oar]

the classic ice skater

[stable charm]

Queen sac for the win

[magic shard]

actually higher depth is losing I just checked

b4 Kc7 is the only move bxc5 Bc6 is the only move

[dull blaze]

oh

[magic shard]

because if b4 h5 bxc5+ Kc7 Ba5+ white is saving it

[dull blaze]

ohhhh

[magic shard]

actually white's better

[dull blaze]

wait ba5 kc6?

[magic shard]

lol

Nxf3

[dull blaze]

oh shit oops

[strong locust]

Computers man
Ok no 2000 can find this

[magic shard]

yeah so you have to go b4 Kc7 bxc5 Bc6 so that you can play Kb7

[stable charm]

Rate my fridge

[dull blaze]

yeah yeah yeah I get it now

[magic shard]

tbh hard find though

also best line after b4 h5 bxc5+ is Ke7 but white plays c6 there
black is still very slightly better

[stable charm]

Still waiting

[nimble arch]

I play the normal g3 line 🙁

[nimble arch]

ew the bishop os on e7

[magic shard]

seems like a more modest line

[torn maple]

Pixel do you have experience otb?

[nimble arch]

Yes, I play otb

[nimble arch]

seems to be the choice by masters nowadays, honestly found it going though moons chesslearningplatformsponsors

[torn maple]

Im gonna play a tournament today, i start with the white pieces, should i go for something very solid or try something very agressive on the first round?

[strong locust]

Which one do u wanna play

[nimble arch]

also can later play f4 which is fun

Or Ne2-e4

[summer oar]

have you looked at your opponent’s recent games?

[torn maple]

I trade everything to win the endgame because i usually know more than my opponent, but now my opponent has 1900 fide :(

[nimble arch]

Just play what you normally do, check opponent if you have any prep too

[strong locust]

GL

[nimble arch]

1900 is still endgameable

[eternal jackal]

try a theory check

[nimble arch]

Ive traded down vs a GM into an equal endgame

in which I flagged...

[eternal jackal]

things that never happened

[raven lance]

Rate my books chat

[torn maple]

He has 29 games total, every single one a different opening

[nimble arch]

[neat sand]

[summer oar]

[alpine gust]

[eternal jackal]

[torn maple]

Ayo mohito

[nimble arch]

[proven wave]

Pixel..Sleep!

[alpine gust]

Surely you have the game on record somewhere

https://tenor.com/view/james-doakes-doakes-curious-suspicious-questioning-gif-14390669560130901665

[noble sapphire]

How does one acquire a FIDE id 🤔

[torn maple]

If c5 im hope bro plays Nxd4 e5, because i studied a lot of theory about this one

[nimble arch]

give me a sec lemmie find it, I dont plan on fully doxxing myself so hopefully theyd have hidden themselves among enoguh opponents

[torn maple]

In my country you simply play a fide rated tournament

[summer oar]

bros preparing against me specifically 😔
but fr tho if they are going sicilian they are probably choosing najdorf

[strong locust]

I cooked my opponent in 20 moves in fantasy variation

[torn maple]

Can i learn Rossolimo in 5 hours?

[nimble arch]

[Hidden]

[summer oar]

just play open sicilian why be a chicken they’re just a kid vro like

[alpine gust]

Very impressive honestly, good stuff

[lone totem]

https://tenor.com/view/hikaru-hikaru-naka-hands-oh-yes-baby-rubbing-hands-gif-25390470

[nimble arch]

eh

good bloody luck

[alpine gust]

What’s ur rating

[naive jackal]

The movie didn't make me cry. I can't cry anymore.

[lone totem]

i was jk i wouldnt do it 🙏

[torn maple]

Bro, this is the only line in the sicilian that i actually know what im doing 😭

[dull blaze]

cut some onions

[nimble arch]

cant say that because then id FOR SURE get doxxed

[alpine gust]

Ha fair

[neat sand]

Ngl I never cried with onions and that.

[raven garnet]

do they actually help?

[summer oar]

its not even mainline 🥀 mainline is nf6 nc3 and then e5

[dull blaze]

it is a mainline

[thin hearth]

U wanna cry,
Do something adventurous

[dull blaze]

its the kalsh

[neat sand]

You can allways give a rating g range

[thin hearth]

Means

[neat sand]

Make it low enough they won't know, but high enough it covers it

[nimble arch]

uh 1600+ then

[summer oar]

all tournament players play the sveshnikov, cuz they bought a chessable course for $20 and memorised all the moves

[dull blaze]

???????

[nimble arch]

if it wasnt obvious that I would be there

[neat sand]

Damn fide? Congrats bud

[summer oar]

if they are going into e4 c5 nf3 nc6 d4 specifically

[safe folio]

this might be aura

[nimble arch]

1600 fide isnt really an accomplish. The first time I played a 1600 fide fella that guy lost on move 8

[torn maple]

But that is a completely different line 🤨

[neat sand]

💀

[safe folio]

same I beat 1600 uscf most the time

[summer oar]

80% of players go into that line

[nimble arch]

also 1400 is the floor now so take that into consideration

[nimble arch]

mashu I dont trust you

[safe folio]

(fide only btw)

[safe folio]

u never do -_-

[neat sand]

😭 well I wouldn't make it i doubt since highest on cc ive ever been was 1600 lmfao

[thin hearth]
