I am a 32 year old fucking virgin who can't even leave his house without hving a fucking anxiety hattack yet I have hte ego of someone who actully does shit and deserves anything in life. I believe I am entitled to being a good player, but will put no effort into getting better.

we didn't post your photo though? some screen error? reboot your pc
>>
>>541138974
I think if you struggle in any way shape or form at the sub 1000 level you're never gonna make it and should just give up if you're not playing purely for the fun of being shit.

Nobody is born 1500, but if you can't get there yourself with the infinite resources of the internet available, your probably retarded and mentally deficient in some way
>>
>>541138669
your real problems are beyond the scope of /chess/ to help obviously but chess wise losing a random online game is irrelevant, once your skill improves a few hundred points it will make no difference whatsoever if you lost of won that game.
anyway what are you actually doing to improve?if you have all day for chess there is no way you can't get at least decent with some discipline, what time control do you play?do you do puzzles every day?have you ever read a chess book?
>>
>>541139162

> what time control do you play?
10+0 rapid
>do you do puzzles every day?have you ever read a chess book?
Yes and I've been going through a tactics book

>>541139360
I have played seriously for a few months. I also did this a few years ago and actually got to 900 in a couple weeks then stopped for a while and somehow I can't get back to where I was after just a few weeks of playing. My mental state has deteriorated since then I guess.

fuck off from 4chan to youtube, watch #1 chess fundamentals of john bartholomew (again if you haven't, watch it again), watch two videos of andras toth, then turn off your pc and go do the puzzle book for an hour, turn on the pc and play a 15+10 rapid
>>
>Fabi draws again

>>
>>541139828
I know fundamentals. That's not what I struggle with. My problem is that I just don't follow them in game, because I'm either rushing to play a move because of ego or because I am just blind and not paying attention. I need better concentration which is why I needed to eat something before because I was slipping. But now I have ate and it hasn't helped so idk. I should consider logner times ya

You will never be anywhere remotely close to 1% of the "good" level of chess even if you devote the rest of your life to it. You started too late, when your brain was already mush and not malleable like that of a kid. Give up.

>so most people in your club are like 2300 chesscum+?
I don't know the chesscom rating of most of them but the one I'm friends with on .scam who's a "mere" 1800fide is 2200+ rapid 2100blitz, he's above average in the club but not by much we have several experts and one washed up CM
Do you actually think you have 1% of the skill of a GM?
>>
>>541143609
Is your club filled with old farts or do you have some zoomers?
I'm wondering how popular chess is these days.
>>
>>541143609
i can assure you that 1800fide is not just a "slightly above average club level player", and no, 2200+ rapids cc are not your average club players, no matter where you live. it's a strong club player who's decently close to an expert.
only one club i attended was like that, and it was a tryhard club known as being the bundesliga club with half the players being bought from other countries to play team games for them. my current club is just a normal club, some strong players are here, but the absolute majority is around 1600 chesscom level. this is the normal club level player

>>541145112
I don't know what to tell you out of a little more than a dozen adults who show up often 5 are stronger than him, there's 3 unrated regulars that would be around 1600.scam give or take and from time to time much weaker players show up but they inevitably stop coming because they can't win a single game.
I never got the impression that it's a "tryhard club" but It may be that there is some natural selection going on because it's a small town club near to a city that has several others so maybe those guys that quit just go elsewhere, I have never been to any other so I can't know for sure
Although I just googled it an the media FIDE rating in germany is supposedly 1795 so maybe you are the one who got a wrong perception not me

This is almost exactly how it is in my local club down to the specific ratings.

>>541150245
Imagine if americans cared about chess...
>>
>>541142180
maybe instead of caring so much about your games after you lost them, you should consider doing so while you're playing.

You only blunder because your brain stops caring too fast, and you stop looking at options or stop analizing deeply.
>>
>>541175884
Nta It really depends on the country and continent, I think. Europeans are stronger and the more you go into eastern europe, the stronger they get. It also varies a lot by individual clubs. Adult clubs are usually stronger, clubs filled with kids are usually weaker because they have a lot of kids who are only there because the parents sent them.
For example, I have a few friends we sometimes meet and drink and play chess. Out of around 7-8 that come regularly, 3 are above 2100 Fide. I'm smack in the middle at around 1900 fide. I've been to a few local chess clubs, and they're weaker usually, mostly filled with kids at around 1500 fide and a few FMs or IMs as coaches.
That being said, I still think 1800 fide are not average club player strength. They are definitely in the upper echelons of the shitter hierarchy.
>>
>>541159985
>>541179473
the have few fide rated players because most events in the us are only uscf rated, same reason why they have a high average

Are you an American? I've heard Americans have mixed age chess clubs instead of separate kids' clubs and adults' clubs. I can imagine something like that being a factor.

No, I'm eastern european. Never heard of separate clubs by age, usually they are mixed with the occasional chess coach that specializes in teaching kids

It sounds like in Europe people people either get good or give up chess entirely. Whereas in America, there's less players that get good, and more people that play chess as adults for fun regardless that they're not "good."

Do you have your chess soundtrack?
When I play casual games, I listen to quiet instrumental music or some electronic.
But when I play a super high rated opponent, like for example when I played a titled player, I turn on badass boss music and pretend I'm fighting a boss.

Oh wait I got it. It doesn't actually give you a month of membership. Chesscum will simply allow you to do everything a Diamond member can as long as you're connected via Perplexity's shitty browser.

>Newton Anderson, a 17-year-old chess prodigy, is facing the greatest player in the world: Carson Marlsen. With international notoriety and $100,000 on the line, Newton and his clueless best friend, Jim, hatch a plan to cheat: they'll use morse code, a chess computer, and...a vibrating buttplug.

>>
>>541269107
Actually I think this is just a expression of the gender roles society and I hold, it's not really a specific case of inequality. Generally women are seen as more fragile, innocent creatures while men are the more disposable protectors of the fairer sex. That's why we draft men and why women are seen as the apex of beauty instead of men. The only problem is that, I do actually believe in this, passionately so, even though it's truly not in my best interests. For that reason I both see the unfairness but still will likely retain my biases.

FIDE is right I don't think even hikaru disagrees that the 400 point rule was retarded
>>
>>541306280
you mean vibing
>>
>>541306354
From what I have read hikaru said something stupid and the president (past 2700 gm still playing at a high level after 30 years getting hated on for no reason btw) had an interview in which he corrected him, and that's that.

I think FIDE debases itself too often by engaging with the top players and changing rules to address scandals, about the first point, I am aware that it is done to perpetrate the "classy" and "tightly-knit" nature of the chess world but I don't like it personally, to the second point, stuff like taking the loser of the wcc spot from the candidates and making the rating spot drop no farther than #2 I don't like, apply sharper rating decay in the calculations past #1 or other such creative solutions instead, but generally changing the rules so often because of internet drama is a bad look, you could attribute it to incompetence but idk and don't care too much.

I remember it differently but on /sp/ it was really bad the few times I went there. I was immediately called a kike, shill, etc. for suggesting that Hans didn't cheat against Magnus. I don't think there were that many Magnus dickriders in /chess/, they were just really loud and smug. The more reasonable people were arguing about his online cheating and not the St. Louis thing.
>>
>>541306802
>I remember almost everyone ITG was on magnus side

yes which is why there is no hikaru-fide drama, unlike narocheatsky who claimed he wasn't trying to farm rating and then seethed when some of it got taken away

Do you really need to hate someone to send him some meme pic?I'm not the guy who sent the email but your overreaction is weird you are acting as if it's some horrible crime when it's harmless fun, as for reason why I dislike him personally:
Farming ratings from kids, claiming he wasn't doing intentionally and then complaining when he lost less then half the farmed rating is despicable behaviour and I'd like to see you try to deny it
He is a very fake person who puts on this friendly wholesome persona but then when the mask slips you see how spiteful and neurotic he truly is, see when he broke the TT rules on purpose after they specifically asked him not to, got kicked from it then acted like he was the victim somehow.
Most importantly he was likely cheating online but you will say he wasn't and I don't feel to argue in circles about this again especially since there is a resident cheatsky apologist(You I assume) who is the most disingenuous faggot I've ever interacted with.
I like his videos and his commentary too but I'm not some parasocial retard who thinks any youtuber I like has to be a saint and I must defend his on honor on the internet.

>realistic looking girl on the profile picture that is non-reversable; no model pics, just a girl who took a photo of herself

Now we need to grab an attention of a titled faggot.
You have three main resources.
>chess.cum forum
Many less intelligent titled people post there often.
>lichess or chesscom coach list
>chess master games
I chose the third one. I found a regional tournament in Italy and got a few recent games of a strong IM. I doxed him, he is a FIDE instructor, good player. I found his chesscom account and typed to him with a question about his games. He was surprised and super into talking. When spear catfishing, you start a conversation with a specific topic in mind that almost forces him into conversation; he felt he needs to explain why he made one move after I doubted him. Conversation started and we talked daily, exchanged messages, he sent me his game and analyzed a few games for me. We talked for a week, he got into it and sent me messages 24/7, asked me personal questions, exchanged a few photos, and now he wants to coach me for free. He's super into me.
Btw, my account also has a diamond membership for a year, gifted by another scammed retard. I will write how to get a free diamond membership in my next post.

AI used to have 7 fingers on every hand. Now it looks photo-realistic.

Even if current LLMs struggle, next decade they won't.

Anon does bring up a good point about the result being invalid in chess since you do not know if your opponent is cheating.

Brood War is more physically impressive to watch. Pic related.

Average people can understand at a glance how impressive you are with a keyboard.

Average people will never understand or appreciate the "deep thinking" that goes on in chess (guy in suit with hands on head moves a piece of plastic every few minutes).

>first time my ex saw me playing bullet she couldn't understand how I could think so fast and thought I was a genius
Chess is the best thing a person can learn to impress others. Normalfags will think you're a genius if you are ~800 rated or so. If you are ~1600, you can scam <1000 normies who play regularly that you're titled and they won't see a difference, they'll think you're a monster.

Everyone here can do an experiment and play casual bullet matches in a social situation, with others present nearby. Everyone will look at you as if you're a genius. Propaganda around chess being for geniuses is so fucking funny. I had many people irl saying things like "chess is not for me, i'm too dumb haha".

>>541349906
unbelievable someone from here just has to troll him in a trial lesson, I can't be bothered to make a believable low rated account on lichess but if anyone gives me the password to one I'll do it and record

Well she's 1814 FIDE so of course she would mate you, whether you let it happen or not.

TheOnoZone isn't even skilled enough to get minimal 1400 FIDE rating and the dude is over 3x more expensive than her
>>
>>541356208
maybe rating isn't the most important thing for a coach? surely a 1700 lichess could teach beginners, perhaps even better than a IM or GM because they're closer to that level so they know how a beginner might think or they just have a knack for explaining and spoon-feeding things in a compelling way.
>>
>>541356208
But anon a 1700 Lichess is like a 1900 FIDE!!!

There is no reason anyone weaker than him should ever waste money on even a competent coach much less this fraud, consistent play,analysis, puzzles and occasional youtube videos will make anyone with a shred of talent for the game stronger than this clown in a year at most, if not he was ngmi anyway.
There is nothing good a 1700lichess can teach a beginner that he couldn't get from a couple random instructional youtube videos or one entry level chess book, not to mention all the misconceptions about chess that conman must have and is inflicting on his "students"

>>541360701
I got to 1550-1600 chess.com rapid in one year, and I didn't know how the pieces move before that. I just spam Andras Toth, Naroditsky, puzzles, and skimmed through a positional strategy book.

1700 Lichess blitz is a bit under 1400 Chesscum blitz.

Funniest is that Kf5 for white not only avoids stalemate by giving the black king a square to move, it's also mate in 2 after Kxh5 Rh1# which that guy would've easily figured out if he had learned the king and rook vs. king mate pattern. But no, keeping the h-pawn defended was more obviously more important, can't allow the shiny number to go down even though i'm already up a million pieces with a won game. Here we see a position showcasing a clear example of the brainrot caused by the belief in imaginary material points.

>>541378397
It's 3AM here.
I'll post volume 1 eventually but not the rest because I can't be arsed. Blitz was pretty shit and not worth the effort I already put into ripping it.
I need to do one last manipulation to make sure the scans can't be traced back to me but it's something rather CPU intensive that makes my computer shit bricks.
So yeah, it will be done but I need some time.

wtf man
volume 1 is the only one that can easily be found online, give us the rest of it
>>
>>541378923
come on bro send all of it
>>
>>541379375
If I could I would but it's not that easy. The metadata removal part is rather hands-free. Everything that comes before isn't.
I need to manually download a volume by chunks of 20 pages or so.
The scans AREN'T numbered and named something stupid like "hdhet564gh_". So I need to run a OCR script that detects the page number on the scans and renames the files accordingly. But sometimes it fails. Some other times the pages don't feature a page number at all. That means I have to go through the source to see where each page would slot and rename it manually.
Rinse and repeat.
Then I do the metadata thing.
I ain't doing all that again.
If you want to give it a shot yourself get a free trial on Mangas dot io and knock yourself out. I'm going to bed.
>>
>>541379568

Wouldn't really say that, 2000 FIDE is quite a strong rating for someone starting chess so late in life. I wonder if he still has those problems with tactical blunders tho.

Alright I'm thinking this is the last game of chess I should ever play. I am completley mentally broken. Not even trying to pay attention to the games anymore. I'm on Zoloft, THC and trying to listen to something at the same time and it's not going to work and I have no will power to improve by actual effort. I am a low will person, the beta of all beta males. In this incredibly short game I made like 75 fucking errors and I really should just quit. This game has beaten me, I am not cut out for anything intellectual; just like I wasn't cut out for anything athletic and it made me cry as a kid; just like I wasn't cut out for anything social and it made me cry as a teenager and young adult; just like I wasn't cut out for anything sexual and that's why I'm a virgin retarded faggot today; it's all the same story at the end of the day. I don't want to try.

Stop smoking weed. Start exercising. I used to be a complete mental wreck some time ago too until i started running. I picked up pic related and did the whole thing to the end (even though i was a lardass that could barely walk without getting tired when i first started). Trust me when i tell you: endurance exercise is the best way to get rid of neurosis and make your mind stronger. And there's something particularly special about running that i can't really describe. It is a fact that it completely changed me. Giving this at the very least a try will almost certainly result in a great improvement in your life. You just have to start. I recommend following the program in pic related, aside from a small difficulty curve in week 4 it's a really great place to begin.

Here's a link with a good read about this if you need a more scientific convincing:

Hello to the Chikos and the Chikas, in this video we will need to talk about a topic that is quite close to my heart, it is close because a student of mine sent me a video recently, and I remembered how I was in the very same situation as he was when I was a teenager, eager and ambitious to prove myself on stage. My student asked, coach, during last tournament, my opponent smelled, smelled very very badly. And it is something we need to eventually deal with, and even more in the next years due to the popularity our royal sport gained in India. Let me walk you through the scene. So, my student went to the tournament, did not look up who he is going to play against, did not prep anything, thus, also did not prep any measures against the smell. This is important. We need to know, we need to prepare, and we need to be ready. No one is going to hand you the anti-smell measures, as the whole hall needs them, no one has free ones to give out. So you need to know who you are going to play against and prepare against the smell. Hide your nose, grab a tic-tac, close your nose and breathe with the mouth. In the most extreme situations, you are allowed to call an arbiter and ask him for help.
>>
>>541536129
>, maybe his great-great-grandfather was
Both his parents are italians born and raised in italy he's a second generation immigrant he's not one of those "italian"-american larpers you are thinking off, he represented italy until 2015 when sinquefield payed him to switch federation
On the other hand he's a white dude who was born in america so when mutts claim him I don't find it as ridicolous as when they claim mishra washington,wesley,aronian, lenier etc

Do you think Hikaru or Fabi will be the First American World Champion before Hans?
>>
>>541603101
I hope Fabi wins it so we can end the meme wc cycle. Second pick is Hikaru wins candidates and Gukesh yeets his king after defending the title. Third pick is a younger American than Hans pulls up and wins it all. Hans winning would be alright I guess he's Americas brightest talent afterall just kind of meh narrative.

Stop playing blitz and stop playing 10+0. Pick up a basic book (anons usually recommend Play Winning Chess, i like the Soviet Primer but it's a little hardcore for a beginner's book) and play slow games to practice what you've learned. Be sure to think before every move. Don't try to play by gut feeling.

I prefer tactics books. I think they're much better than online tactics. Endgame books are nice as well as long as they're not aimed at grandmasters, like Dvoretsky's book. I'm talking more like John Nunn's Endgame book, which an amateur can read and appreciate fairly easily. But strategy books, like the one in your pic, I find boring too.

Everything went wrong, you cannot weaken your king in that way at the beginning, you are reacting like a faggot, just think about your moves and ASK YOURSELF
>What does my FAGGOT OPPONENT want to do?
>Does it make sense?
>Is he threatening something?
if yes, then do something about it, defend, capture, do something to FUCK UP his plans

if no, then continue your plans, but you have to ask yourself those questions to understand what is happening, you are basically pushing wood and crying here like a worthless retard.

I dislike my half-brother. A toxic person, deceitful, full of bile, unpleasant.
He played chess. He had a group of friends who also played chess. We lived in the same household. I saw him play online. This game looks fun, I thought. I should try it.
I learned the rules and started playing. I was bad, I didn't know anything but how they move. Center? What's that? Tactics? Strategy? Openings? Endgames? What are you saying, 1. Na3, let's go, he won't see that one coming.
One time, my half-brother wanted to play with me. He destroyed me fast. Multiple times.
I was angry at myself and proceeded to actually learn the game. I was getting decent fast. I wanted to get revenge, but the fucker stopped playing, threw it away, it got boring for him. But I kept playing and improving, and promised to myself that never again will a person I despise win against me. I've never gotten my revenge. But I estimate he was around ~400-500 of chesscom rating, and I am 2000 now.

It was at this moment that black realized, he fucked up. All of his hopes and dreams are now inevitably crushed upon the realization that the promoted pawn pins the rook, and that the back-rank mate he had such excitement for was but an illusion.

The fourth game of the 73rd Oza title match is being played, between Sota Fujii (sente, the Oza title holder) and Takumi Ito. The time control is 5 hours per player, and the match is a best of 5 (Ito leads 2-1).
In this game, Ito played an offbeat opening, playing B-44 instead of trading bishops and entering bishop exchange. This resulted in a gangi vs. yagura position.
