AND HE SACRFICES THE ROOOOOOOK

[atomic garden]

hello, I used to play chess a lot, I got 1300 elo on chess.com and like 2000 on lichess before deleting my account. However, I forgot most of it after a 2 year long hiatus. Does anyone mind telling me how I can get back into the scene?

[night adder]

[golden star]

.

[radiant violet]

just so u know the number of billionaires isnt exact

thats all the known billionaires on the Forbes list

there are a lot of billionaires who keep their wealth private and arent famous like Elon or Bezos

[golden star]

but don’t that make gm title even rarer lol

[radiant violet]

so that makes it even a smaller percentage of people who are grandmasters

[radiant violet]

yea thats what im saying

there is prob at least 20,000+ billionaires

at minimum

[golden star]

do you think levy will be gm

[radiant violet]

maybe

[golden star]

I mean your 10x more likely to be a billionaire

[radiant violet]

you're more likely to be a billionaire yea but you also have to put in more work for that

more people are willing to put in work to be a billionaire than be a chess grandmaster

yk what i mean

[golden star]

Ye

[neat egret]

Also much less people play chess than play life lol

[chilly sierra]

Ye

💀🔥

[keen turtle]

hehe 🙂

[still kelp]

Why don't they take the queen beforehand with the bishop

Or take the knight beforehand

[north sun]

Pretty sure it was double discovered check with king on b8, so they had to move it and couldn't take either

[leaden hawk]

Hey all! Sorry if this isn't in the right spot but
I'm a Canadian high school student and I'm currently conducting a study researching if there are any trends between a player's personality/MBTI and their tendencies or styles when playing chess. I'm looking to see how personality may change a chess player's strategies, which could be useful for future developments in better personal chess trainers. If you'd like to participate and help my study, I would greatly appreciate it if you filled out this survey 🙂

[vivid nacelle]

lol

flex fr

[night adder]

ikr

oof

good thing we are playing here

[vivid nacelle]

frfr

[night adder]

see this is how us beginner-intermediates play

we find a cool tactic

win materail

then lose it all

on the next move

[vivid nacelle]

understandable

wait but its a drawif i take the rook

thats so dumb

[night adder]

im not going to force draw

unless u force me to

but wouldnt go in the records

[vivid nacelle]

i think i might clutch

[night adder]

"might"?

[vivid nacelle]

ehh its complicated

[night adder]

"complicated"?

[vivid nacelle]

i was calculating Qxg7 and then other stuff

[night adder]

huh

no shot i lose this

its either a draw or a win

or aloss

i knew this was going to happen

[vivid nacelle]

ngl that was a little too close for comfort lol

[night adder]

bro what the

[vivid nacelle]

😭

[night adder]

gtg

bye

[vivid nacelle]

its okay when u lose to someone like 400 points higher

byebye

cya

[night adder]

*600

(o i cant play im having dinner rn)

[vivid nacelle]

gotcha

[pure knot]

I seriously couldn't understand why ppl say italian is positional 😭
from the italian there exist some of the most dynamic games known to humans: evan's, haxo scotch (transposed), fried liver, greco gambit, etc.

[vivid nacelle]

the classical italian, like the giuoco piano italian are very positional

[obsidian goblet]

is chess a good extracurricular

[vivid nacelle]

i would say depends of your interest and also how much you want to play chess/how good you want to be

[azure roost]

chess: fun, mad

[ivory spade]

Finally TvT

[pure knot]

yeah only the c3 d3 giuoco piano

[slim delta]

okay im a high 700 and the only opening i play is queens gambit am i deep fry?

if so should i learn other things™? I already have a grasp on various chess tactics like forking and skewers but not enough experience to effectively crete them

[pure knot]

nahh
just continue polishing your tactics

you're 700 1 opening is enough

[slim delta]

edit: im dumb im 200 how am iso dumb

[jolly pawn]

hi

what is this about

[vivid nacelle]

i mean yea but like tbf no one really plays those after a certain level

[vivid nacelle]

chess

[jolly pawn]

oh

surprising

[vivid nacelle]

ikr

[jolly pawn]

i kinda need some chess advice lololo

[vivid nacelle]

great place to come to
what advice do u need

[jolly pawn]

im 648 and play london system

is that good?

[vivid nacelle]

thats alright

[jolly pawn]

kk

[clear spade]

i mean...giuco piano mainline and pianissimo is quite positional. also wtf happened to you the other day, man told me he wanted to play a game and then ghosted me 😭

[clear spade]

i'm not THAT bad ok

[pure knot]

You took too long to reply so I just started booting up some minecraft

[echo glen]

Who want to play me

[slim delta]

ok so in the recent game

i missed 4 consecutive moves where the bot was telling me "TAKE THAT GODDAMMED QUEEN WITH YOUR ROOK"

[clear spade]

oh sorry then

[jolly pawn]

i was playing a friend and i left my bishop hanging for like 9 moves

[late turtle]

what openings do yall mainly use

for black and white

[slim delta]

for white i queens gambit

for black uhhh

i queens gambit

[jolly pawn]

guys should i use delayed wing gambit

as 648

[late turtle]

arent gambits not safe

[slim delta]

the only opneing i now

[vivid nacelle]

a3 sicilian?

yea its pretty good but only for a certain style of play

[late turtle]

i gained like 100 elo points in like 3 days

and then lost like 60 points in one day

and then ive bee slowly regaining them

[pure knot]

no (you're 648 just use scholar's mate smh)

[late turtle]

scholar's mate is trash

why are you recommending it lol

oh shit

idk if im blind or smh

but i for some reason took a pawn guarded by another pawn

[pure knot]

💀 you're 600 every opening works at that elo

[late turtle]

that's not

how it works

[vivid nacelle]

not all 600 games are complete messes

[echo glen]

An body like Gotham chess

[late turtle]

like if you wanna improve

dont use a shitty opening

like the scholar's mate

[pure knot]

you don't call an opening shitty just bcuz its main trap is easily refuted 🗿
the scholar's mate is still a sound opening

[late turtle]

tf are you calling sound

[vivid nacelle]

scholars mate is not a sound opening

[late turtle]

you're literally moving the same piece multiple times in a row attempting to dodge opponent attacks and not developing at all

[pure knot]

bro the scholar's mate is sound
e4 e5 Qh5 Nc6 Bc4 g6 Qf3 Nf6 Ne2/c3 [-0.3]

you don't have to move the queen around like 5 times in a row

[late turtle]

if you wanna not get your queen taken

yeah

[pure knot]

fym

[peak plinth]

Any one online?

[main oxide]

Guys I can defeat the 1000 elo bot with ease. So does that mean I'm 1000 elo??

[crisp prism]

[quick garnet]

hello!

quick question is opening with my pawn on the bishop a good idea

[pliant dome]

What's your elo?

Generally it is not a good idea but depends on the elo

[quick garnet]

i dont have one? idk

oh nvmd its 1600

no wait 732 srry

[vivid nacelle]

which bishop? english is a good oppening but it often transposes into a d4 c4 style opening but f4 isnt really good

[pliant dome]

we would be having a chess arena in 1 hour lemme know if any of you are intrested

[quick garnet]

i usualy go for the left bishop

[vivid nacelle]

yea english is good

[fiery coyote]

[junior trail]

[vivid nacelle]

[late turtle]

ahh i fucked up

[foggy apex]

does anyone have a FIDE rating

[normal pulsar]

This is a club for people who like to play chess not those who wanna be GrandMasters 😭

[thin aurora]

Any one is like a beginner player like me (1000-1200 rating) and some tips from higher rating players.

[fossil onyx]

Not blundering any pieces, like at all, and learning basic attacks and how to walk away from them if they fail

My go-to is yugoslav, but sometimes it fails

[night adder]

1000-1200 is def not beginner

[thin aurora]

Definitely beginner rating according to some posters.

[fallow walrus]

anyone wanna play chess?

[pure knot]

1000-1200 is intermediate

[thin aurora]

I can but the rating difference shouldn't be higher than 300

[pallid lotus]

Any tips for me 600 rating to reach 1000 without paying money

[fallow walrus]

oh

[thin aurora]

Learn only two openings for black and white
One for the queen pawns openings
And others for the king's pawn openings.

[fallow walrus]

my score is like 400 ish

[pallid lotus]

Is Scandinavian defense good

[pallid lotus]

We can play a game if you want

[fallow walrus]

lets go, messaege me priv

[thin aurora]

I never played this opening frequently but it is a solid opening.
My personal openings are Sicilian defence
English opening
Italian game(both black and white)

Italian is a must learn In my opinion because it is one of the most common openings.

[pure knot]

coolest mate I've done in a while 🔥

[hollow plank]

nah bro with a pawn

[neat egret]

Fide = GM right...

[vivid nacelle]

i have a uscf rating

[low glen]

of how many

[vivid nacelle]

around 1300-1400

it fluctuates a lot tbh

[pure knot]

wdym

[trim flower]

Does beating a fide rated player count

[trim flower]

Chill out man 1400 fide is like 1600 in chess com only

Or maybe 1700

[dusty dirge]

zoro go

u know what no i resign

[jolly pawn]

does anyone know what opening i should play as black?

i'm mid 600s elo btw

[tired pier]

the best opening at ur level is caro or french

[jolly pawn]

do you know what advantages it has?

[tired pier]

good defence

[jolly pawn]

aight thanks

i'll try it when i play

[tired pier]

personatli i like more the caro

[worldly yoke]

me who’s 560 elo

[sharp remnant]

Watch Gotham chess vid on the caro khan

It’s pretty useful

[tired cobalt]

/Launch

[jolly pawn]

k, thanks

[fleet pilot]

My first Brilliant guys, let’s goo. I’m 550 elo btw

[sharp remnant]

oh nice, did you mean for that to happen lol

[fleet pilot]

Yeah it was intentional I knew what I was doing

And then I played Nd6

[sharp remnant]

oh nice

if you can see that then you should be much above 550

[sharp remnant]

idk how to use this but seems cool

anyone got a chess.com

[jolly pawn]

@sharp remnant what's your elo

[sharp remnant]

1700

[jolly pawn]

dang

[sharp remnant]

well 1500 in uscf

i do actual tournaments

this weekend im going to states

[jolly pawn]

oh cool

gl to you

[sharp remnant]

ty

the games are pretty long

its 6 games each two hours

[jolly pawn]

wow

[sharp remnant]

but split up into two days

[jolly pawn]

oh

[sharp remnant]

so not too terrible

[jolly pawn]

yeah

i got into chess just recently

[sharp remnant]

oh nice

chess is pretty fun

[jolly pawn]

ikr

[sharp remnant]

cause like you can play it anywhere

[jolly pawn]

kind of depends if i'm winning lol

[sharp remnant]

lmao

in the beginning focus on getting a good opening

[jolly pawn]

ok

[sharp remnant]

usually if you have good opening then the rest is easy

[jolly pawn]

what do you recommend for me

i'm mid 600s

[sharp remnant]

white or black

[jolly pawn]

uhm black

[sharp remnant]

um

against e4?

[jolly pawn]

yes

[jolly pawn]

is playing london system at my level okay?

[sharp remnant]

yea thats great

[jolly pawn]

for white

k

[sharp remnant]

london is pretty solid

for black

um what do you usually play

[jolly pawn]

oh

[sharp remnant]

no no

like london for white is good

[jolly pawn]

oh i get it

[sharp remnant]

what do you play when you play black

[jolly pawn]

queen's pawn

and then i figure it out from there

[sharp remnant]

ah

[jolly pawn]

which is not very reliable-

[sharp remnant]

so e4 d5?

[jolly pawn]

yes

[sharp remnant]

oh shoot i play that too lol

its called the scandivanian

[jolly pawn]

oh

lol

[sharp remnant]

yea fire name lol

if they take the pawn you take with your queen right

[jolly pawn]

somebody told me i should go for caro

is that good?

[sharp remnant]

i heard caro is rrly good, but i never got into it

its really solid

which means that its good defensively

[jolly pawn]

yeah that's what they said

[sharp remnant]

tbh its one of the better beginning openings

i might even learn it

[jolly pawn]

is the sicilian or italian good?

[sharp remnant]

theres just a bit of memorization that goes into it

sicilian is ok, but its a bit advanced

[jolly pawn]

what do you think is the best for my level?

[sharp remnant]

i think if you can learn the caro khan rrly well its a good opening

[jolly pawn]

k

[sharp remnant]

just watch a few vids

play a few games

[jolly pawn]

ty for the advice!

[sharp remnant]

no prob

do you have chess.com?

[jolly pawn]

yes

[sharp remnant]

ill send you a friend request in dms

[jolly pawn]

bet

[jolly pawn]

in discord or chess.com?

[sharp remnant]

discord

[jolly pawn]

notsukiie

[sharp remnant]

[jolly pawn]

i think i friend rqd you

[sharp remnant]

wait my discord isnt my chess.com lol

my mom made my account lmao

[jolly pawn]

br

lol

i friend requested you on discord

[split ember]

Do u not think the Scandinavian is too risky?

[sharp remnant]

Even though your queen goes out in the open, if you play correct it shouldn't get atatcked too much

there's certain tricks to hide your queen safely

[normal pulsar]

guys

1500 is intermediate right?

[sharp remnant]

uh yea

about

[normal pulsar]

alright

[sharp remnant]

well on what

chess.com?

lichess?

[normal pulsar]

chess.com

[sharp remnant]

thats pretty good

[normal pulsar]

ty

[north sun]

Yoo that's awesome very impressive

[late turtle]

i dont think it's good for most beginners

because it's very like positional

when i play as white

when i play as black

i win a lot more games as white

[unkempt imp]

finally reached 1800 on chess.com

[clear spade]

Nah, it's the best opening for beginners against e4 imho.

I have a 53% winrate with the Caro

[red chasm]

Who wants to play chess

[urban kindle]
