@gothamchess.bsky.social coach bot understood the assignment #chesspunks #chess #therooooook

I found this site called chessiverse.com and I have to say it's really fun. I use the chessconnect app and my chessnut board and when I play long games on it, it feels like I'm playing a human. Ratings are closer to USCF than online it seems. #chess #chesspunks #chessiverse

#chesspunks I cannot explain the pure joy and excitement of being at Checkmate: USA vs India. We had VIP tickets and my wife and I were able to bring our daughter who got her closeup in the official @chess.com stream!! The roar of the crowd and the payers were enough to invigorate me. #chess

At Checkmate: USA vs India and it's off the chain! #chesspunks #chess

This amazing video on the KID by @drcanchess.bsky.social goes straight to my favourites!! Hope it helps in my game tomorrow! 💪🏼 #chesspunks youtu.be/dC2Houwhegg?...

Wow Niemann won DECISIVELY in round 1 of the #freestylechess event in Vegas. #grandchesstour #chess #chesspunks

When you've lost your magic playing #chess and losing your passion, what better way to get it back than to say "screw it, I'm going to write a @chessable.com course". It's not like I don't have a million other things going on. #chesspunks

Maybe when things are stressful and you need to take your mind off things, and you think chess is a good outlet.....don't play blitz....😂😂 #chesspunks #chess

Okay #chesspunks maybe I can get some clarification. I played a hell of a game, 10 moves into book of Ruy Lopez until I pushed a4 on move 11. I get they "why" but I just don't get the when I guess. Maybe someone can explain it to me like I'm 5. www.chess.com/live/game/13...

Woah this is entirely messed up #chesspunks en.chessbase.com/post/taliban...

Boooooom!!! #cheespunks I have been working so hard to get here. The last time I was close I tilted and dropped to almost 2450. I took time off, came back to chess, and FINALLY was able to hit this! (And it's difficult when you lose 75 points getting 2 wrong but only gain 5 when right) 😂.

Fide did it right. Harassment has no place in chess. #chesspunks www.fide.com/gm-christoph...

Boom! 1 year complete. Sometimes it was only doing 1 puzzle, but I made it a habit to consistently log in and do it. #chesspunks @chessable.bsky.social

The monthly bits on @chess.com are just a lot of fun to play. I ended up losing this game against their 2650 both.....but man there were definitely chances. 2550 performance rating for him, 2250 for me. #chesspunks #chess The Mastermind Beat Me! www.chess.com/game/compute...

"Your opponent my be across the board, but the first one you face is yourself" #chesspunks youtu.be/DuzP3cWvJwc?...

Crazy I didn't see the Mate in 2 when I played Nh5+ at the end of the game. I was simply wanting to open up my dark squared bishop. I spent way more time than I should have before playing Nf6# because I was looking at where to place my bishop 🤣. Thinking in chess is weird #chesspunks

Little unboxing video of the #chessnut EVO. Haven't dove too far into it, but this board is really cool. It goes nicely with the Air, Pro, and Go that I already own. #chesspunks #chess

I have shown more restraint in not opening the Chessnut box because I have to "adult" and "work" than anything in my life, and I don't like it one but. No I do not. #chesspunks

Will try and do an unboxing video of the latest Chessnut addition to our household #chesspunks (big fan of their products)

I've been a big chessnut fan for years, I own almost every board they out out. THIS feature here makes me want to own the Move. #chesspunks www.facebook.com/share/v/1ATN...

Insanity. All classical time control freestyle games. I'm not the biggest fan of playing 960, but watching it is definitely fun #chesspunks

#chesspunks has anyone used Fide Online Arena? I keep getting ads for it.

I apparently fell asleep doing chess puzzles. Look at the time #chessounks 😭😂

I probably could have played on, but I'll accept the draw by a FM. Honestly I didn't have a plan going forward except trying to centralize my king and control the open file. #chesspunks Check out this #chess game: ChessLearnerPermit vs bahamapapa - www.chess.com/live/game/13...

The puzzle rating swings are just insane on chess.com. I hit my highest at 2930 yesterday, I'm now down to 2730. #chesspunks.

I have conquered EARTH......day. Though according to the review Wallace played like a 1500 (which I find odd)

So thinking more on @lionchess.bsky.social and London I had the opportunity to push e5. Probably wasn't the best game, but I liked my position out of it. #chesspunks #chess #ihatethelondon Check out this #chess game: Dijkstra98 vs ChessLearnerPermit - www.chess.com/live/game/13...

This is a fantastic shilort writeup on analyzing your games. It's something I don't do nearly enough. #chesspunks #chess #study

Why can't I play all French Defense like this?? 99% accuracy with a checkmate to finish. #chesspunks #blitz #tactics

Got to play some OTB at a park meetup for the first time in a long time. 1 win, 1 loss, 1 draw. Of course the loss was against the only child I played. 😂😂 #chesspunks

@chess.com puzzle ratings be like:(for context I was 2900 and just over 2700 right now) CORRECT EXTRA HARD: +5 rating points WRONG: -270 rating points. #chesspunks

Finished up the monstrous Chapter 4 in @drscull.bsky.social Chess Journeys Tactics Workbook. Of the 120 puzzles here were about 20 that gave me a hard time, 5 that I moved too fast and didn't look at the board, and 5 I fat fingered. Very happy with the performance. #chesspunks

The incredible Mastering Chess series is on sale on @chessable.com for the next week. Definitely might look into some of these, the books I remember being incredible for the intermediate player #chess #chesspunks

Why you gotta roast me like this @chess.com #chesspunks

Since I'm sitting in an airport I took the opportunity to go through the first chapters of @drscull.bsky.social Chess Journeys Tactics Workbook. His energy is infectious and his understanding of how the brain works and how to turn it into skill is something sorely needed. 5/5 stars.

Look, this was not sound but my pawn made the decision to finish the game himself not me #chesspunks 😂😂 Continuation was 1 ... h5 2.Bxd4 h4 3. Bxf6 hxg3 4. Qg4 gxh2#

Attempting bullet chess has unequivocallyade my game exponentially worse. And it's created an environment where I just don't enjoy the game in any aspect anymore. So time to take a break from maybe all playing and studying for a bit. #chesspunks

Virgil approves. You wanna hear a joke?

Would I have gotten this in a game? Probably not. But still a cool mate in 2 (if easy) #chesspunks

FINALLY!!!! SMOTHERED MATE #chesspunks! Check out this #chess game: newstuff vs ChessLearnerPermit - www.chess.com/live/game/13...

I mentioned my work colliding with the #chesspunks world. Today I'm happy to be allowed to share a small clip from Knights Gambit, coming in a collection called The Starship Atlantis on 2/25. The disgraced world champion plays a game before boarding in this scene. make.headliner.app/download/0e1...

@drcanchess.bsky.social I'm thinking of buying this for my wife who is around 300 rapid / 600 daily. Would this be a good place to start? www.chessable.com/the-chess-el...

If this were a puzzle I would have found it #chesspunks. Mate in 4.

Man, my blitz game has been on a roll #chesspunks. I stopped studying anything at the moment but still play some blitz. Hopefully soon back slower time and study

Been a while since I've been on #chesspunks. I've taken a bit of a break, haven't been able to study the way I want, and have only been able to play blitz. No longer games. Hoping to get back to it in a month or so. Happy chessing!

How the hell did this happen? What a way to break my all time blitz ceiling. I guess the pawn courses are paying off at least against them? #chesspunks #chess Check out this #chess game: ChessLearnerPermit vs LGASweden - www.chess.com/live/game/13...

I've got a bow out of pawn studies for a bit #chesspunks It isn't resonating with me, I'm more confused than ever. I've completed The Power of Pawns presented by Toth and was working through Small Steps by Shankland. But something isn't clicking. So I'm going to delete progress and revisit. *Sigh*

2900 achieved, now the quest to 3000 begins #chesspunks.

A friend of ours bought me and @chocattak.bsky.social daughter a onesie as a baby shower gift. It finally fits at 12 weeks! #chesspunks #chess
