Chess annotation. His moves then my replies.
He can correct my explanation, but I believe this is a sideline of a Sicilian defense.
@LogGrad98 and I are playing a correspondence/daily move game right now. He's highly rated and I'm an average bum, but If I find a way to show our game before he beats me in 12 moves, I'll try and post it.
Speaking of OTB (over the board) has anyone here played in an actual chess tournament?
I see the Utah Chess Association has events every now and then. I'd love to get my *** kicked by some 10 year old just for the love of the game.
I'm not sure, but Magnus is known for his miraculous endgame techniques, especially in speed chess. The only other person with those traits would be the multiple time US champ Hikaru Nakamura. Hikaru is probably the best defender of all time IMHO.
Any thoughts on lichess VS chess.com?
I love how lichess is open source and free, but chess.com has recently added some great things that couldn't be done without funding.
Every GM has alts online to keep things fresh, but it's funny you mentioned two of the GOATS who famously gave up their world champ titles because they didn't think it was worth it.
Fischer invented 960 chess IIRC, because he hated the idea of memorizing moves and Magnus would rather make more...
Chess is an awesome game with a vast history that evolves and entertains to this day.
Do any of y'all play?
Any thoughts on the state of chess right now?
Any thoughts on the "scandals" in the last couple years?
After listening to a bit more of this it reminds me of some of my favorite 90s rap. To be honest it reminds me more of the Tupac song here, but I can't help myself posting Juicy as well.
I don't love it, but I can't skip through it without finding many sounds that I do.
Gonna need more time on this one, but thanks for your contribution.
