#chess #denver It's going to be fun. Promise.

No one quite knows how this is going to work, but you'll be encouraged to gamble with poker chips, and possibly play some chess, and maybe win some free beers and other stuff. It might be fun. #chess #Denver

It had been a while since I got to do the ol' Lasker Trap. Always fun. And yes, game review, underpromoting to a knight IS very cool. Thanks for noticing! #chesspunks

CEOs are trying to convince you that quiet quitting is worse than wage theft, while they plan on replacing you with a robot. Unions know better. Happy Labor Day Weekend.

Drink, play (3+2blitz) chess, and support a good cause tonight at www.woodsbossbrewing.com. #Denver #Chess

I found Nxe5 here, and the game review labeled it as brilliant, but I noticed the eval went down. The subtle Qe4 is a fair amount better, as you still keep the N and come out in a better position...but chessDOTcom labels that move as merely great. No bueno.

I think this is the first time I've ever had an 8 pawn advantage in a game.

So, how was yall's chess club this week? youtu.be/Og6hsDnHe84?...

Chess.com doesn't know shit.

I missed my chance to equalize here. Black to play. #chesspunks #chess

My new platform: If elected, I will personally beat this guy's ass at fantasy football.

Forty years ago today: Tears for Fears hits #1 with “Everybody Wants to Rule the World”. “I didn't really think anything of it, to be honest with you,” Roland Orzabal said of the arpeggiated guitar riff that opens the song. “But my wife at the time liked it. So I thought, Okay, maybe I'm wrong.”

1-2 million people could've seen yesterday's Bennett/SE Aurora tornadoes. Incredible. I got photos/videos from Lakewood (below) and Castle Pines of the tornado yesterday - both 30-40+ miles away. Incredible. Photo: Sam McQuistan #COwx

Nobody tell him

The Pogchamps cheating footage from @drlupo.bsky.social is probably the most cringe thing I've seen this year, and it's been one of the cringiest years in memory, so far. #chess #chesspunks

Chess.com really needs to update it's Grob theory. That move is totally book!

Kept the tradition alive of losing early in the annual double bongcloud thematic tournament, but this time I lost to a NM in an endgame, who then went on to beat another NM in the finals. Progress? #chess #chesspunks

Toknight is a casual knight, but next week is one of our most-anticipated themed tournaments of the year. All (including baboons) are welcome! #Denver #chess #chesspunks

20% ON THE EU, 34% ON CHINA, 46% ON VIETNAM, 24% ON JAPAN, 49% ON CAMBODIA, 25% ON SOUTH KOREA, 36% ON THAILAND, 47% ON MADAGASCAR, 38% ON GUYANA...

We have over 110 people signed up to play in our league, and we aren't even in syndication yet. #chess #denver

My history of law is very rusty, but I recall one prof telling me the reason why laws exist at all is to pacify the hoi polloi enough that they wouldn't shank the aristocracy wherever they go.

i love the wire first-person shooter but i worry that making every character selectable in multiplayer compromises the story's canon. in my last match i played as brother mouzone and got fragged by assistant principal marcia donnelly with a grenade launcher. that never would've happened in the show

The world is strange and wonderful. Did you know there are more squares on a chess board than there are atoms in the known universe?

A bird shat on my head today. ...as we get older, we unavoidably become our parents.

One of my favorite themed tournaments of the year this evening! Free to enter, so stop by! (Rules listed below in comments) #denver #chess #chesspunks

Legendary Denver Club the Mercury Cafe Will Become the Pearl

Now I have wood. #chesspunks

(Puts on monocle.) The modern Grob affords many opportunities for Rook sac mates along the G AND H files! Keep your eyes open, fellow Grobbers. #chesspunks

I can do a pretty mean Emo impersonation.

It's one the most stressful, annoying days of the year coming up. Vallentimes. Take a break from your partner to get frustrated with a different partner (our take on hand and brain) this Wednesday night at Woods Boss Brewery. #Denver #Chess #Chesspunks

This is the hardest I’ve laughed in a long time.

Listening to Judit and Leko disagree about 960 opening strategy is a delight. Every year I get more and more on the 960 train. #chesspunks

Last month we introduced our new ORC rating system (Formerly Unique Chess Knowledge). Come by and get your own this Wednesday night! #chess #Denver

Always a pleasure to dirty flag UFC legend Mark Hunt in 1/0. I get paired with him randomly a lot, for some reason. #chesspunks #chess #ufc

ORC fell to Denver Chess Club, 8.5 to 5.5. Their top boards were just too strong. But it was neck and neck til the end. Buy our loser murch, please. #chess #chesspunks #denver

Oprah's Rook Club has been challenged to a rapid match by the Denver Chess Club. Terms have been negociated. Feelings have already been hurt. The stakes could never be smaller. Come witness the spectacle this Wednesay night at Woods Boss Brewery. #denver #chess #chesspunks

Drew-coded characters include:

Just casual play tonight. Stop by Woods Boss Brewery in #Denver for some #chess games and #beer from 7-10 tonight. The main crew is watching the #Nuggets, so they foolishly put me in charge...

This isn't the end yet!? How long does this non sense take to finish?!

Why chess.com allows this at all is a mystery to me, but imagine being such a coward that you won't play someone 200 points lower than you when he/she plays the Grob. Man/woman up! #chesspunks
