[icy spire]

I just saw the right move I should have just advanced my pawn

[jade kite]

i mean idk how ecf works ngl but u could

[sage vine]

unrated people always go at the bottom of the pairings list, and you are then sorted in alphabetical order by surname (at least in my experience)
so you should face people roughly just above the middle of the pack in your first round
After that it's all based on points

[fathom fiber]

which one?

[restive edge]

Guys

[timid saddle]

I play chess (FIDE rating 1775), piano, and rhythm games, and I'm okay at them
offline a lot (dont expect quick replies)

[earnest olive]

Ah okay

[timid saddle]

🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🙏

[sage vine]

I'm not gay I'm trying to be nice

[jade kite]

[sage vine]

[icy spire]

b7 to b6

[dusk kayak]

Ok bud

[timid saddle]

“Spam” go cry bout it gay kid

[dusk kayak]

@sage vine
Yo we have 4 mutual friends

[sage vine]

yo

[jade kite]

when i was 1200 fide i beat an im that was like the funniest thing that day

[dusk kayak]

Chill

[earnest olive]

What’s tournament prep like for higher elo, I was thinking learning really in depth theory for some openings that are slightly sideline, like if I am playing queens gambit learn the 4 pawn attack in depth or something bc it’s sharp and they could have imbalances for me to go after after the opening

[gilded quarry]

Whats wrong to be gay

i like hans niemann really so much and want to taste his bwc

[earnest olive]

If I’m against KID

[jade kite]

idk man i play like one opening for each colour

[earnest olive]

What’s your rating?

FIDE

[sage vine]

if you're against KID a catalan like setup is decent
(Pawns on c4 d4 e3 and fianchetto Kings bishop)

[jade kite]

1600 i normally just farm unrated tourneys for prizes

[sage vine]

like I said, I'm not gay

anyways you're getting blocked

[earnest olive]

Have you seen d4 Nf6 c4 g6 e4 Bg7 f4 O-O

Wait

There is nc3 first

At some point

Oh yeah Nc3 O-O f4

[jade kite]

what in the 4 pawns bro

[humble surge]

Chess com supporting LGBTQ 🤢 🤮 and hes adding pride pawn broooo 💀

[sage vine]

I face it sometimes

[earnest olive]

Oh no

[sage vine]

what's wrong with them

[proud kayak]

hiya

[sage vine]

it's quite annoying tbh

[sage vine]

hey

[sage vine]

yeah c5 and e5 are the most common pawn breaks for black in these d4 openings

[proud kayak]

how u doinn

[sage vine]

I'm alright, on a bus to Venice for a school tour

[earnest olive]

Learning this theory could be good prep though bc it’s very sharp and for someone who’s not well prepared it can be tricky for black

[small jungle]

Vro can't be 1600 fide

[sage vine]

honestly W idea

[small jungle]

f4 💔

[sage vine]

Some people handle otb differently

[earnest olive]

There’s also the samisch as well

4 pawn attack looks better for prep though

And engine likes it more

Scarier for black too

[small jungle]

It's not that scary tbh

[exotic bluff]

I’m 900 elo and I’m terrified

[earnest olive]

It just makes people who are expecting a normal KID vs QG a bit more out of book bc it’s less common

So you have more advantage on that front

[zealous plaza]

No

[shut skiff]

guys do i buy a platinum member ship?

i want the game reviews

[small jungle]

4 pawns attack is fairly easy to deal with tbh

[shut skiff]

its been 1 month snce im playing

[zealous plaza]

KID players know that white will most likely go for that and they prep that one the most out of the other variations

[scarlet arrow]

goofy aaah chess

[sage vine]

just click the diamond button

[earnest olive]

That’s why the guy I know who is ECF 1500 plays the English, although I played …Bb4 on move 2 and he was stumped so he mustn’t know it that well and just gambles on people not knowing theory

[shut skiff]

nah diamond too much

i just want the game reviews

[sage vine]

Toothbrush ahh eval var

[scarlet arrow]

zeitnot be like

[sage vine]

The diamond button brings you to the page where all the plans are available

Not just diamond

[shut skiff]

can anyone tell me what I can do to improve?

[small jungle]

It's fairly common I think

[shut skiff]

pc

[small jungle]

Weird he doesn't know it

[earnest olive]

He hated that move

[high latch]

that is one of the games I played

[earnest olive]

Yeah but at his rating people aren’t prepped for the English

[light stump]

sapnu puas

[zealous plaza]

Worse rossolimo 🔥

[earnest olive]

He said he’d only seen that move like once

[shut skiff]

@sage vine dude should i buy it?

[small jungle]

It's one of the main moves 💔

[zealous plaza]

Its rossolimo but worse since you actually allow nd5

[sage vine]

Ye

[light stump]

mou sapnu puas. flip your device

[shut skiff]

alr my dad said ok

[sage vine]

sorry I kept misreading as "how do I buy" not "do I buy"

[shut skiff]

but nrn

i got online class

[earnest olive]

I know but Be2 goes next right

Or a5

[shut skiff]

its alr

[earnest olive]

His knight is central and under pressure and moving back just loses a tempo

After Be2

[shut skiff]

dude i beat the wendy bot : D

[zealous plaza]

The knight is never moving back

You take the bishop when you have to

[earnest olive]

Idk what my friend is doing in this long ahh game we are playing I’m winning so much already

[dusk storm]

Someone did suicide

[earnest olive]

Like he is cramped up so hard

I think he wants to queenside castle as well which is rough for him

Bc he can’t reroute for my pawn storm

Unless maybe a pawn sac

[sage vine]

I wouldn't have pushed c4

gives more support for d4 push on c3

[earnest olive]

I didn’t want to allow d5 to give him space

He can’t push d4 I fork

[light stump]

aseald mou sapnu puas

[open herald]

Should i Pull or Anchor when it's sa 4 man rush 2 knights on the edge

[earnest olive]

exd5

If he played d5 opened the board it was more equal for him I think

[sage vine]

If you played d4 instead of c4 he couldn't have played d5 because you win a pawn after dxe5 Nxe4 Nxe4 dxe4 Qxe4

[earnest olive]

I think closing up the board is best though his pieces are trapped

[scarlet arrow]

satisfying history

[small jungle]

I mean your pieces are similarly placed

Except the d2 knight

[icy spire]

bots are freakin maniacs at end games

[earnest olive]

But my queen has more activity chances and I can castle kingside

[small jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/vladimir-kramnik-kramnik-chesscom-chess-meme-anis-84-gif-10256479517071193831

[small jungle]

His c6 knight is better than the d2 knight tho

[earnest olive]

If I reroute my knights to the queenside I’m chilling

[sage vine]

centre play always beats any other type of play

[neat hill]

hi sorry if wrong channel for this if anyone would like to be friends and help me get better hit me up, im only 153 in blitz on chess.com. If someone would be willing to help a bad player get on the right track, would be wonderful lol

[deft anvil]

guys how to play gruinfeild when opp play e4

[sage vine]

But ig it's OK since it's unlikely an 800 can capitalise on that

[sage vine]

you can't

[deft anvil]

damn !

[earnest olive]

It can’t go anywhere though Nb4 leads to Qb3 and he’s forced to maybe push his queenside pawns or move it back and pushing those queenside pawns makes his king weak on a queenside castle

[sage vine]

Closest to the grunfeld against e4 is probably the pirc

[small jungle]

Ew

[sage vine]

it always eyes the d4 square which is now weaker

[uneven turret]

@willow owl I drew an 1800 FIDE yay :D

[small jungle]

In rapid?

[sage vine]

hell yeah

[uneven turret]

Granted he’s also like 13 🥀

[uneven turret]

Classical

[dusk kayak]

I love pircs defense

[small jungle]

Damn

[uneven turret]

My classical comeback started off good

[dusk kayak]

It's peak

[small jungle]

Flan getting decent at classical

[sage vine]

I once drew a 1850 fide who was like 10

[small jungle]

I almost beat a girl who's 1870 fide now

[sage vine]

Actually that was my most recent league game

[earnest olive]

Ehh but Nd4 and trade and win a pawn plus I can further defend d4 to keep winning that pawn if need be

[sage vine]

Not now but in the future

[earnest olive]

I think I have tempo

[uneven turret]

Congrats

[sage vine]

if you move the defending pieces

[earnest olive]

So I’m fine I can just keep making threats with a pawn storm or sum

[uneven turret]

🥀

[sage vine]

kids nowadays 🥀

[uneven turret]

I once had a winning position up an exchange vs a 1900 FIDE my age

That was one of my first ever classical games

As you can guess I lost

[sage vine]

straight into the big leagues ig

[uneven turret]

12yos 2500 nowadays

[earnest olive]

I had to sacrifice like 8 points of material for a checkmate against the ECF 1950 I played on Monday

[sage vine]

my first classical was against a 1500 national

[uneven turret]

Honestly if you’re not 2000 FIDE by the time you reach puberty quit chess

[scarlet arrow]

[uneven turret]

You don’t have a career go do your multiplication tables

[scarlet arrow]

laugh at my opponent please

[uneven turret]

Yo bang

[scarlet arrow]

that's like 1400 level chess

[uneven turret]

haaa

[scarlet arrow]

💀

[uneven turret]

when do I get these opps in my pool

[sage vine]

I was 350 chess.com by that time (ie 20 months ago)

[scarlet arrow]

gotta push higher for that

[scarlet arrow]

.

[earnest olive]

iirc I traded his bishop on g7 with a battery on h6 with my bishop and queen and got my knight to g5 and he was effed because he had already castled and had nothing to defend on the kingside so I sacrificed all my queenside pieces because it led to no more checks

[scarlet arrow]

tbf I just destroyed em

but oké

[uneven turret]

haa factorial

[uneven turret]

batoké

[scarlet arrow]

anyway

[earnest olive]

How long u played chess

[scarlet arrow]

I'm back at peak

one game away from 2400

[earnest olive]

My end goal is 2200 ECF

[scarlet arrow]

4 years

[small jungle]

Why not fide vro

[earnest olive]

Ecf 2200 is automatic NM I believe

[indigo stream]

what do we call this checkmate ?

[earnest olive]

I’m from England

[sage vine]

horizontal ladder

[small jungle]

Why does ecf have multiple national titles😭

[indigo stream]

cool

[earnest olive]

Oh damn I did not know that

2200 for 2 years??

[small jungle]

I found this https://www.englishchess.org.uk/master-points-system/

[earnest olive]

Oh right FIDE 2300 is automatic NM?

Seems quicker than 2 years as 2200

Just spend less than 2 years getting 100 elo

[small jungle]

Fide 2200 is automatic cm

[earnest olive]

Why do I feel like

[small jungle]

2300 is fm

Which is better than nm

[uneven turret]

Tbh NMs are harder than CMs in most cases

[earnest olive]

That is achievable if you play chess like 99% of people play video games

Like people play video games hours a day for years

Do the same for chess and you can get CM

[uneven turret]

CMs you cheat at one tournament when you were six year old, CM for life

[uneven turret]

Objectively false

[earnest olive]

If you study actively

[uneven turret]

Yup

[mortal lynx]

hey

[earnest olive]

Rather than bullet till 3am

[uneven turret]

And you study more than play

And maybe you get a coach

[earnest olive]

I do that anyway

[hoary star]

Can anyone analysis my chess game

[uneven turret]

I don’t

I semi-retired from chess like three months ago and since I returned I only played blitz and bullet

[earnest olive]

I have played less than 100 games lowkey since I started studying and I think I have spend more than that time reading books

[uneven turret]

And since my comeback I’ve played in only one tournament excluding today’s

[mortal lynx]

https://tenor.com/view/clash-royale-gif-7703172207880660162

[earnest olive]

And I went from 600 elo to beating a 2000+

[uneven turret]

It was a rapid tournament which I came second and bagged 350 quid

So I truly believe it’s the mentality

[hoary star]

You are too good

[drowsy stump]

Anyone wanna play?

[uneven turret]

That’s great tbh

[mortal lynx]

😉

[hoary star]

Elo ?

[drowsy stump]

1600 blitz

[hoary star]

O ok it's means I can't play

[scarlet arrow]

okay

I'm 2400 now

:)

winning against a 2475

[sonic silo]

nice

[scarlet arrow]

so that's satisfying

[nova laurel]

bro 😭

[earnest olive]

I feel like something that is “hard” is only hard because it requires consistent dedication. I play the violin (have for 14 years) and I’m at a very high level, but it never felt difficult to get to this level, I’ve just done it for ages. The concept of difficulty isn’t viewed correctly. It’s impressive because it requires dedication, not because it’s as hard as you think

[nova laurel]

This dude lost 103 elo

[thorny lichen]

Why chatgpt lowk acting obsessive

[uneven turret]

For chess I believe you need memorization, dedication and good psychology

Chess skills are genuinely a myth because if you have all of these then you’re going to be better than 99.99% of players in the long run

[earnest olive]

I see FIDE 2000+ as like faceit level 10 in CS, it’s hard because it requires dedication but if you play the game long enough and analyse etc you’re gonna get there eventually

[uneven turret]

So I can reach 2k as well 🥹

[small jungle]

Farm in serbia fr

[uneven turret]

I kinda need to reach it fast though if I don’t reach it by 18 my K40 inflation runs out

[earnest olive]

There aren’t many people that level just because there aren’t that many putting in that much work for that long not because they’re unable to

[uneven turret]

They don’t want to

[earnest olive]

Exactly

nice to have a new role

[earnest olive]

If I WANT CM/NM, I’ll GET it

[earnest olive]

No idea what this means but guess I’m cooked cause I’m 20

[small jungle]

Did you play fide yet?

Idk how it works in ecf

[earnest olive]

Nope

I started playing 3 months ago bruh

I’m still studying from my book

[small jungle]

But basically after you turn 18 your 30 initial games will have k40

[earnest olive]

Meaning

[small jungle]

Doesn't count games that u played while unrated

[small jungle]

K factor means how much elo u get

Or lose

[earnest olive]

So I have to play 30 games before getting a rating?

[small jungle]

No

Your elo will just rise or fall quicker

[earnest olive]

When you’re older than 18?

Or younger

[small jungle]

When you have k40

[nova laurel]

I love how you can lose a winning position because of time

[earnest olive]

So anyone older than 18 has k40 for the first 30 games

[nova laurel]

When he opponent has a single pawn

[small jungle]

Yes

[earnest olive]

Which means your elo is more dynamic

[small jungle]

Ye then I get k20 for life

[earnest olive]

Why would that be a problem

Just play well bruh you’re always gonna be rising if you play well and falling if you play bad

[uneven turret]

In FIDE there’s this thing called K-factor

[sage vine]

That happened to me in the final round of the regional quals for the secondary school chess league (except I was the one who won on time)

[uneven turret]

Which determines the fluctuation of your elo

If you’re under 18 and your elo is under 2300, you have a K factor of 40

[nova laurel]

no way it's the inventor of chess

[small jungle]

You'll get elo slower

[sage vine]

hey

[uneven turret]

Which means you fluctuate a lot, wins give you a lot of elo, losses loses a lot

[small jungle]

And tournaments can get expensive

[earnest olive]

yeah but your elo is never changing that significantly

[uneven turret]

So basically the entire K factor system is just to attract kids

[earnest olive]

If you’re going down a bunch sounds like you got worse

[sage vine]

some tournaments are actually quite cheap

[uneven turret]

But some abuse the K factor

[nova laurel]

K stands for kids

[earnest olive]

How can u abuse it when u have to still win to gain elo

[uneven turret]

Like for example prodigies at roughly 2200 they go to Serbia abuse K factor and gain 200+ elo in a month

[uneven turret]

Playing overrated people or as an underrated fella

In closed “farm” tournaments

[earnest olive]

How the hell do people get overrated bc that would mean they’d have to beat higher elo people? Or do people get paid to lose elo or sum

[sage vine]

And also winning against lower rated people gets you more if you're a kid

[sage vine]

that exactly

[earnest olive]

Damn

[sage vine]

it's suspected that that's how Nemo got her WGM title

[earnest olive]

So why would it matter for the person above that said they wanna get it before they turn 18 UNLESS they’re cheating the system?

[nova laurel]

being paid to lose elo should be, if not, illegal

[nova laurel]

Nemo is wgm??

[earnest olive]

Is she dog compared to other wgms

[small jungle]

Yes

[nova laurel]

wth

[sage vine]

relatively yeah

[uneven turret]

Idrc if that’s how she got her title

It’s a known ugly truth

Mishra got his GM title through norm factories in East Europe and we don’t criticize him for it

[earnest olive]

So she got like half good and then paid for her title basically

[sage vine]

think so

[nova laurel]

Nice

[earnest olive]

Making any form of revenue from videos using wgm in the title should be some kind of fraud or false advertisement crime

[visual jetty]

guys i finally got 1000 🥹 my life is complete

[honest brook]

why

[sage vine]

she also does some questionable side projects but I'm not gonna go further

[earnest olive]

If said person makes content or coaches

[nova laurel]

god job

[earnest olive]

Because if you illegitimately get a title and then make money off it it’s deceitful

[nova laurel]

im almost at 1200

[small jungle]

I mean it's legitimate

[sage vine]

hell yeah, I'd say you could push to at least 1200 in the next month or two

[sage vine]

unethically

[earnest olive]

It’s the same reason that they want to push a law which forces companies to declare if they advertise a fitness product with a picture of someone on steroids

[nova laurel]

Should fide arena titles be added to chess.com?

[small jungle]

No

[nova laurel]

agreed

[small jungle]

They're fake titles

[visual jetty]

✌️ty twin

[earnest olive]

Bc it’s making money off cheating the system

And should be considered some level of false advertisement or fraud

[small jungle]

Don't hate the player hate the system or sum

[earnest olive]

If you wanted a wgm coach you’d want someone who got it by earning it not paying for it

So it should be false advertisement

[nova laurel]

its a massive loophole

[normal mason]

https://www.chess.com/member/getrichordietryin03 anyone remember who his discord is

[small jungle]

I might

[normal mason]

naiditsch just accused him of cheating lol

sore loser 😂😂😂

[earnest olive]

Can’t people over 18 still farm elo anyway it just takes longer

Just pay double

[sage vine]

if nemo's WGM title is slightly undeserved then wait till you hear about the people who advertise themselves as super strong with an ACM title (I don't know any but I'm assuming there must be one)

[nova laurel]

so money -> better title lol

[small jungle]

Vro accusing his own countryman 😭

[sage vine]

you have to pay to get the cert proving you're a titled player anyways

[small jungle]

Where did he accuse him

[nova laurel]

Acms are just some 1200s who think they are cool

[normal mason]

i saw a youtube shorts stream

[earnest olive]

I am just going to legitimately hit FIDE 2200 probably playing classical chess

[indigo stream]

bro is flabbergasted by my triple bishop fork

[vagrant ember]

Wow this is the most easiest game I ever played

[nova laurel]

oh my god bro

[earnest olive]

That’s the goal, I think I will probably go for the classical chess route as well

[nova laurel]

its not like ppl play fide arena anyway

the tournament feature single handedly helped me get +200 elo

[sage vine]

Just a knock off lichess

[small jungle]

😭

[nova laurel]

exactly

[sage vine]

though you can get the title for free if you grind the tower

[earnest olive]

Idk if it applies to higher elo but I found I almost have like an inflated elo right now when I play 60 min on chess. com compared to 10 min. I think bc I learnt the theory but since I have played only like less than 100 games total I don’t have the opening theory and have to think longer for that bit

[nova laurel]

is it easy

I mean I see agms getting smoked by cms

[sage vine]

no
you get 2 tower points for a win, 1 for draw, 5 for your 10th game each day (only once, 20th and so on gives nothing) and to get 1 free month you need like 3000 tower points or sm

[earnest olive]

Going for a title with 10 min rapids and stuff just feels like everyone is gonna try stupid gambits and hope you don’t know deep theory for it whereas classical you forget that whole thing and can think about it and better player wins

[sage vine]

Yeah agms are like 1900 fide max

[neat atlas]

Agms are bad at the game

[nova laurel]

I am not doing that

[earnest olive]

What does agm even stand for

[nova laurel]

Arena grand master

[sage vine]

me neither

[earnest olive]

wtf is arena

[obsidian plume]

arena titles = SCAM

[nova laurel]

a scam

[neat atlas]

never buy arena titles please

[obsidian plume]

go for real title instead of Arena titles

[nova laurel]

Money pit by fide

[earnest olive]

I will just get my FIDE title

[sage vine]

fides website "world chess" has fide online arena and that gets you the title

[normal mason]

apparently he is playing for bulgaria now i didnt even know

[nova laurel]

What even is the criteria for nm btw

[sage vine]

this

[earnest olive]

2300 FIDE

[nova laurel]

Oh

[sage vine]

2200 of whatever national rating your country has, depending on if it offers nm title or not (ireland doesn't for example)

[nova laurel]

Why not

[earnest olive]

But for England you need 2200 for 2 years consistently

[small jungle]

Btw the fms dc is playlatenosleep03_26811

[earnest olive]

Easier to get fide 2300 one time

Sounds like

[normal mason]

nice

[sage vine]

idk they stopped it like 50 years ago or smth
ig too little players getting it that didn't already have fide title

[earnest olive]

And I’m probably higher elo just haven’t played online

[night marlin]

whats ur elo

[earnest olive]

1200 peak rapid 1350 peak blitz

[polar marsh]

When I reach 1000 can u tell me some opening I can stick too I don't wanna learn 100s of opening

[potent python]

I leanrt how the pieces move when i was 6 year sold apparently stayed at 500 ELO i cant get out

[night marlin]

1100 is my peak it was on rapid

[nova laurel]

my opening habits are bad

Full of niche traps

[night marlin]

same I start with italian every single game

[earnest olive]

I am lowkey approaching 1600 at least from books and my OTB performance

[nova laurel]

I go Stafford gambit like a coward

[night marlin]

woah thats good

[earnest olive]

Reading books*

[nova laurel]

But then it's fun to play

[polar marsh]

No it wasn't

[polar marsh]

Can we use Stafford Gambit against anything

[earnest olive]

I beat a 2100 otb

[polar marsh]

It was fun for u not me

[uneven wolf]

my opponent just sacked their bishop

[night marlin]

Idk about stafford gambit whats that

[uneven wolf]

I'm so scared

[nova laurel]

When ur black yeah but

[polar marsh]

Idk ask @nova laurel

[earnest olive]

Wym bruh Greek gift?

[uneven wolf]

idk they sacked their bishop and uhh traded knights and then their queen

idk what was the idea their attack seems dead

[nova laurel]

it's this

Read this, lots of cool trapshttps://www.chess.com/blog/ThummimS/stafford-gambit-traps-a-complete-guide

Just pure fun in the triple digit elo

[earnest olive]

Is it similar to Halloween gambit

[nova laurel]

but pawn

[earnest olive]

Does it come after e4 e5 nf3 nf6 tho

[nova laurel]

Yes

[potent python]

Maybe I should try to study chess instead of just playing it. I just dont like studying

[night marlin]

I dont know that neither

[nova laurel]

You don't have to know that

[earnest olive]

I study more than I play and I easily gained like 1k elo at least

[nova laurel]

It's just goofy ahh

[night marlin]

studying is as important that playing u gotta study the oppenings

[earnest olive]

I’m studying rn

[potent python]

Im stuck at 500

[bold spruce]

Hiii

[night marlin]

yo wsg

[uneven wolf]

hi

[earnest olive]

Forget that bruh study middle game and end game

[potent python]

True

[bold spruce]

Wanna play?

[uneven wolf]

what's your elo?

[night marlin]

oppenings are as important as those

[nova laurel]

Anyways the reason I like the Stafford is that

[bold spruce]

I think 2000

[nova laurel]

1. More traps
2. Opens up both bishops

[night marlin]

[uneven wolf]

nooo you're too scary

[bold spruce]

Please just try

[nova laurel]

3. Easy development

[uneven wolf]

what are we doing at 1100

[potent python]

I prefer white pawn to E4 or black to E5 its pretty badic but yeah its the only stuff i do

[nova laurel]

4. Extra tempo

[nova laurel]

I hate 1.d4 players

[bold spruce]

?

[night marlin]

Nothings wrong if he hadnt moved the pawn black would back rank mate in two?

[potent python]

Ohh those yeah pretty much

[nova laurel]

my mind goes blank

[earnest olive]

Principles, sure. But as long as you’re not completely losing in the opening then you can win from middle game in lower elo

[uneven wolf]

I had enough of 2000s running me over

[sage vine]

Stafford gambit players when their opponent plays the vienna

[nova laurel]

So I go d6 and go kings indian

[earnest olive]

I’d learn basics of some openings and then use opening principles and just study middle game

[bold spruce]

I can teach you to reach 2000 too if you want

[uneven wolf]

oh right

mate in 8 anyway

[earnest olive]

2000 chess. com just seems like knowing basic chess theory like pawn structures, pawn storms, minority attacks, some opening theory, outposts, bishops vs knights rook lifts etc

[uneven wolf]

how'd that go

[nova laurel]

@polar marsh how is it

[hexed magnet]

lmao i know that profile picture!

[bold spruce]

[austere dirge]

I keep losing lately

[austere dirge]

I was 1000+ then im now i n 850

[night marlin]

fried liver is a good opening I guess

[potent python]

I was 700 but now im 500

[hexed magnet]

yeah openings are not your problem bro, you need to just get better overall

[potent python]

Im stuck at 500

[nova laurel]

Do u want traps

[night marlin]

Aww

thats bad xodarap0

[potent python]

I suck pretty much. Im only on silver league and i fight legend or gold league guys. Ahh im pretty yk unintelligent

[austere dirge]

How about vienna?

[night marlin]

league matters how much you play not how good you play

[earnest olive]

Are there any 2000+ in chat

[nova laurel]

Elo does not equal iq bro

[potent python]

I started a new account a month ago and i quickly went to 500 but im dtuck

[hexed magnet]

yeah me

[zinc prairie]

Think of 2K-rated players like cookies rather than croissants. Both have that firm, crisp outer layer, but what really sets them apart is what’s inside. True 2K players are solid all the way through, like a cookie. Meaning they’re not just strong in openings (the exterior), but also in tactics and endgames (the interior).
Players below a 2K rating are more like croissants. They may have that appealing outer layer, but inside there are gaps that still need to be filled.

[night marlin]

its gppd as well but I use fried liver sacilian defense or italian game more

[potent python]

Well i am indeed smarter than my friends but i doubt being able to have a high iq

[austere dirge]

Ok thanks

[night marlin]

r welcome

[hexed magnet]

ok bro

[potent python]

[nova laurel]

https://www.chess.com/blog/ThummimS/stafford-gambit-traps-a-complete-guide

[night marlin]

alright guys gtg Im about to start class

[earnest olive]

My book shows this position and explains that both sides are fighting for control of f5 which is why white did not trade the bishop because it allows h5. why is f5 an important square to control particularly?

[potent python]

Bye

[austere dirge]

Im going to get invested to this for a while

[zinc prairie]

Thanks, man! I hope you will be able to exercise your right t think deeply and make some metaphoric statements.

[nova laurel]

Exactly 100 days ago I was 700

[sage rapids]

can anyone coach me lol

[earnest olive]

white played Qc2 instead of Bxf5 Nxf5 Nf3 h5

[sage rapids]

how much u now?

[frozen ether]

someone want to play ?

[nova laurel]

the 100 elo guy:

[frozen ether]

Hello, who want to play ?

[hexed magnet]

I would imagine its because that's where a good amount of the pieces are coordinating to, also its possible that in some positions, white can push f5 and maybe generate a kingside attack. Regardless, its better to just defend a piece that's being attacked rather than moving it since then you are conceding space (but not always)

[fathom fiber]

im trying mate

[hexed magnet]

sure!

[nova laurel]

Surely there's someone lower

[frozen ether]

great, what's you id ?

[nova laurel]

458 is not bad at all

I mean 465

[fathom fiber]

impossible

[hexed magnet]

Immortal-Sun unrated please

[nova laurel]

It's a really fun opening

[sage rapids]

is there anyone 1500+ that can coach me im only around 1400 so like i do want to get better

[nova laurel]

The opponents always fall for it

[earnest olive]

ah, so trading gives up control of a square whereas not trading leaves it still up for grabs

[frozen ether]

i send you a request

[hexed magnet]

whats your username because multiple people sent a request

[small jungle]

Also trading helps the player with less space which in this case is black

[earnest olive]

That's a good point

so more space = don't trade

[frozen ether]

Sylvain-Pierre-Durif

[earnest olive]

or try not to unless trading your bad piece

[hexed magnet]

correct!

[earnest olive]

Someone disagreed with my move here earlier but I decided to disallow d5 as it would lead to trades. But am I kinda correct because trading would help black as they have less space

[nova laurel]

Utterly miserable blitz and bullet ratings

[hexed magnet]

send an unrated challenge

[austere dirge]

Im going to study the stanfford gambit and its very fun to play

[earnest olive]

And I can easily castle kingside and queenside attack with pawns

[frozen ether]

oh yeah sorry

[earnest olive]

Since black is gonna queenside castle likely

[indigo pine]

U need to devlop ur Bishop and castle short

[earnest olive]

i know but i did c4 first to prevent d5

I don't want to give black breathing room

trading would maybe lead to some kind of equality and room for his bishop

opposite castle looks benificial here for me

CM or pushing NM?

cuz he's that high already

[fickle rover]

*Highest rated who is willing to play candidates

[pale sand]

Im played good i think

[fathom fiber]

i havent seen him play in a while
sindarov has his eye on the prize the way he has been playing
i'd expect Fabi to win but he just isnt going through

[pale sand]

Its on li chess

[cunning finch]

hikaru kinda have zesty voice huh

[zealous marsh]

Gukesh has been terrible.

[nova laurel]

Lowkey

[fathom fiber]

seems they prefered highest rating

[zealous marsh]

Placed dead last in Prague a couple months back

[zealous marsh]

[fathom fiber]

i bet he will lose

[fickle rover]

ngl I expected a young talent to win like bluebaum and i was kinda close

[pale sand]

I sac my rook

And i won

[hexed magnet]

@frozen ether yeah bud you're reported for cheating, goodbye!

[fickle rover]

for some reason the favourites never win the candidates after magnus retired

[fathom fiber]

Sindarov is kinda young too
for his age at this level
just amazing

[nova laurel]

It could be his alt

For trolls

[fathom fiber]

Levy would be proud

[zealous marsh]

Hikaru only played a single GM the entire time he was farming weaker players and qualifying for the Candidates

[hexed magnet]

yeah bro no its not, he also is spending about the same time on every move

[kindred crypt]

GG SINDAROV 🎉 🎉

[nova laurel]

Ah.

[north acorn]

caspo12

[hexed magnet]

its so obvious too

[frozen ether]

it's my alt, i'm 2100

but gg

[hexed magnet]

bro why the hell do you have an alt, im still reporting you but okay

[fickle rover]

He was trying to win as much tournaments he could also he kinda dogwalked that gm so he must have been kinda confident

[fathom fiber]

how the hell was that allowed?
to be placed #2?
that's honestly a blow in the face for the other players

[zealous marsh]

He didn't. He drew GM Harsha Bharatkothi.

[frozen ether]

I just loosed my password

[zealous marsh]

Barely 2500

[hexed magnet]

ok bro whatever you say "loosed my password"

[fickle rover]

wait fr nawww

[fathom fiber]

keymar came through though

[cobalt helm]

Why does games ends in +8 only or +9

[nova laurel]

And finished last

[frozen ether]

lost*

[golden schooner]

Guys I have good news 😁🗞️

[cobalt helm]

Should I make more brilliant shii

[nova laurel]

U can get more

[fathom fiber]

i think we know why you "loosed" your password

[nova laurel]

Just play higher rates opponents

[cobalt helm]

Depends on brilliants?

[nova laurel]

Accuracy does not mattrr

[frozen ether]

haha i'm just french so i can type mistakes

[fickle rover]

i had +58 one time am pretty sure you can get upto +90 if am not tweaking rn

[cobalt helm]

Alr

[hexed magnet]

oh you're french, i guess that explains some stuff

[cobalt helm]

I won against 1200

[fathom fiber]

valid answer to be fair

[nova laurel]

That only happens when ur acc is new

[cobalt helm]

+9 only

[hexed magnet]

yeah you can

[austere dirge]

Why you're profile look like victor wembenyama when he was a kid?

[nova laurel]

?? Im 1193, won against a 1400 and gained 14 elo

[cobalt helm]

Thats great

[fickle rover]

no i got confused i thought he meant like engine evaluation in a position

[zealous marsh]

Funny enough Hikaru got whooped by Awonder Liang in his practice games preparing for the Candidates

[kindred crypt]

guys almost 2100 rapid

[fickle rover]

you can get 220+

[frozen ether]

haah idk

[kindred crypt]

advice?

[zealous marsh]

And Awonder Liang himself is getting whooped by Hans Niemann in classical

[forest oyster]

me when

[nova laurel]

Wasn't the maximum 319.2+

Or something

[austere dirge]

Sindarov is whooping every candidate

[fickle rover]

idk i drew with my friend in his alt account and he was like 1300 he jumped to 1700

[zealous marsh]

already a fact

[nova laurel]

Except for drawbaum

[nova laurel]

Yeah his acc is new that's why

[austere dirge]

Yeah he has 6 wins and 7 draw

[zealous marsh]

+6 in Candidates is crazy work

[nova laurel]

stop.

[zealous marsh]

Legendary performance

[nova laurel]

Listen.

The brainrot kids are listening.

[fickle rover]

He clean sweeped every tournament before candidates if i remember there was a meme on him

[nova laurel]

They are coming.

[austere dirge]

Wait the number....

[nova laurel]

12d 1l is crazy work ngl

[fickle rover]

I noticed now LOL

[zealous marsh]

(He didn't, he only qualified by placing 3rd in the Grand Swiss, and Keymer would have taken his spot if he won against Arjun Erigaisi)

[fickle rover]

Blud gonna replace anish giri

[nova laurel]

I though Arjun was gonna qualify

[austere dirge]

Why sometimes when you win alot of games you think im the beat then get 8 lost streak the next game

[nova laurel]

What happened

[fickle rover]

Oh aight ig it was draw sweep or smth then

[fickle rover]

lol happened to me a lot when i was lower rated now adays i like lose 3 games then win 3 games and no development lmao

[zealous marsh]

Hans would have qualified if Anish hadn't cooked him in the last round

[nova laurel]

But then the wins are from lower rated opponents so you end up with about 3-6 points less

[austere dirge]

Why when you beat the hardest player then get 8 elo after winning the longest game in your life

[fickle rover]

He woud have got cooked by Sindarov anyways

[zealous marsh]

It's just how the rating system works, unfortunately

it tends to correct itself

[nova laurel]

Chess.com doesn't give two 💩 about your accuracy

[zealous marsh]

some ppl are overrated, some are underrated

[nova laurel]

It's ur ratings

[fickle rover]

You get 10 points if your opponent is way higher rated than you

which is still a joke

[zealous marsh]

I've had +12 after beating a 2600

[nova laurel]

Blud got nuked

[austere dirge]

But when you first join you get 100+ elo

[fickle rover]

What's your rating

[zealous marsh]

2420 when I beat the guy

[forest oyster]

youch

[fickle rover]

Chess.com adjusts your rating and then when you play a lot of games it cements your rating on a place and give you just 8+ elo normally. You can delete your account and make a new one if you think you are better.

I was stuck in 1300 elo and i made an acc and got to like 1600 elo

[austere dirge]

Nah i resign more often because i can see the patterns of me getting checkmate

[fickle rover]

ru titled?

[zealous marsh]

no

[little sphinx]

helo

[zealous marsh]

not even fide rated ✌️

[fickle rover]

You shouldn't do that if you are lower than 1900 elo

[upbeat fern]

Hi

[fathom fiber]

wait, what do you mean?
i thought every game is +8 elo

[zealous marsh]

I won from here btw, don't ever resign ✌️

[austere dirge]

Yeah

[hollow locust]

This might actually be the best game I’ve ever played, only one inaccuracy

[small jungle]

https://tenor.com/view/vladimir-kramnik-kramnik-chesscom-chess-meme-anis-84-gif-10256479517071193831

[fickle rover]

When you make a new account it gives you a lot of ratings till 15 games if i remember well then you get +8 for same elo as your opponent +6 for lower and + 10 for higher

[zealous marsh]

https://tenor.com/view/vladimir-kramnik-kramnik-typing-interesting-chess-gif-3546551764425277288

[hollow locust]

I’m only 528 elo too

[austere dirge]

No not always

[fickle rover]

So you can just delete your old acc and make a new one if you think you are HIM

[chrome quartz]

Yo I just lost a bullet game I had 87 accuracy they had 97 accuracy is that sus

[fickle rover]

how much moves and elo matters

[fathom fiber]

i saw someone get +31 elo off me while i reduced by 8
what does this mean?

[little sphinx]

how do I get pass 1300?

[earnest olive]

I know it’s not the same because of tempo but I only just clocked that the Sicilian looks like the English for black but -1 tempo lol

[fickle rover]

He must have had a new acc

[hollow locust]

By winning your elo will increase

[fathom fiber]

i like the hard work i made along the way for my 400 elo

[chrome quartz]

1600-1700, 38 moves, it was a 1 move blunder that decided the game

[hollow locust]

Been there pal (I’m 500)

[fickle rover]

you lost? yea he def cheating then

[zealous marsh]

their account was newly made or they haven't played in a long time so their k factor is still high

[tawdry bone]

hi

[fathom fiber]

LMAO
im pushing tonight
500 elo goal

[zealous marsh]

they earn multiple times what they should earn due to chess.com placement in where they should be.

[hollow locust]

You got this one bro

[fathom fiber]

that's insane to be fair

[austere dirge]

I think sindarov broke the 2 year champion curse

[fathom fiber]

thanks broski

[tawdry bone]

can i post ss anywher?

[fathom fiber]

meanwhile Fabi always coming in top 3 and never a title

[paper goblet]

can a 1600 beat a 2300 with rook and g, h pawns vs rook

[fickle rover]

I also grinded a lot while i was lower rated like 400-500 elo next grind comes around 700-900 elo and 1500 elo is clean sweep as some noobs put themselves as advanced player and play there first game as 1500 elo then you would be stuck in 1600-1800 ladder

[zealous marsh]

Came super close in 2016, unfortunate for him.

He drew Magnus in all classical games

[chrome quartz]

https://www.chess.com/game/live/167339476070 u can check and decide, I played suboptimal but still 97??

[zealous marsh]

[warm ginkgo]

[austere dirge]

Chatgbt raise them

[fathom fiber]

[fickle rover]

Ah yes queen takes king queen opening hacked variation how did i forget

Cheating is what people do in games, hacking is my career (I am doing a degree in computer science specialising in cyber security)

[fathom fiber]

LMAOO

[warm ginkgo]

premoves every move and gets 96 accuracy in 48 moves
