India appreciation edition
>>546215270begone shitskin
>>546215270Indians aren't known for their physical health, save it for the touch bovine-digested grass edition
>>546215436Jokes on you, shit skin is a compliment in the small village I’m from.
>>546215436In high level chess it's important to do your squats so you can use your ass like that and it's important to train your neck so your opponent can't use his ass like that.
Youuuu pill-poppin'
>>546218304thanks for the milk, mark
>>546218304THANKS FOR THE MILK MARK
what's the laziest opening I can play as a shitter with black?
>>546220690
>>546215270I can't hate them for this, but I can hate India for existing.
>>546220690The King's Indian is braindead but I'm sure you wouldn't know what to do with your dark-squared bishop.
>>546220690Two sirs
>>546221912Good morning!
>>546221715I only plan openings with Indian in the name.
>>546221140I don't want to play that because I don't want to look like a gothamchess fanboy even though I do watch some of his videos
https://www.yomiuri.co.jp/igoshougi/ryuoh/kifu/20251111-SYT8T7314523/https://abema.tv/now-on-air/shogiThe first day of the fourth game of the 38th Ryuo title match is being played, between Yuki Sasaki (sente) and Sota Fujii (the Ryuo title holder). The time control is 8 hours per player over two days, and the match is a best of 7 (Fujii leads 3-0).The opening this game was bishop exchange, with gote playing right-side king instead of the mainline.
>>546218304Rippetoe is an actual unironic cuckold with an interracial fetish. Iirc someone doxxed his account on some site where he vented about his fetishes.

>>546225460Sounds like propaganda from someone afraid to commit to SERIOUS SQUATS for big gains and hypertrophy in his quads.
>>546226596>>546224551Why do you guys do this? just make your own God damn threads
>>546226596these niggas playing checkers lmao
>>546226596is an actually solved game tho
>>546228268How come people still play it? I just looked it up and there were some pretty Asian girls playing competitively. Might need to look into it more!
>>5462282688x8 is solved, but the 10x10 version (which also has some different rules i can't remember) isn't.
>>546231729is that due to 10x10 just being more obscure though?
>>546231863https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_draughtsnah, it's the main variant played in europe.they even have titles like in chess
>>546232016crazy because it seems like a straight up kids game to me
>>546232960I played more chess in elementary school than I have as an adult.
>>546224439>I do watch some of his videosI'm sorry to hear that.
>>546232960You'd lost to a 8y/o so I guess you're right in a way.
>>546233539We like Levy here
>>546234225no we dont
>>546234225>>546224439is he still trying for gm? serious question, i don't follow chesstubers
>>546234353He says he is but he's said that for years and then doesn't play many tournaments so who actually knows
>>546234225Nobody here likes that rat-faced kike.>>546234256He's an American patriot and we adore him.
>>546234792Is he still hiding names online when he plays? Maybe he's psyching himself out and is scared he'll choke playing anyone serious OTB.
>>546235092no idea, i don't watch that much
>>546234792>46 classical games over 6 months in 2024>9 classical games in all of 2025bruhdid he explain why
>>546235221I honestly don't know I just saw one of his recent videos is titled GM Levy
>>546226728Nah I just avoid squatting because it's associated with cuckoldry. Top 3 most based lifts:1)OHP2)weighted chin up3)incline bench press
>>546235309Pozman randomly sticks "GM" in his video titles because it attracts views from Indians.
>>546235309just watched 1 minute on 2x>decided to try for gm in mid 2024>training, study, all the shit>first 3 tournaments were great>last 3 tournaments were shit>felt like shit>decided to take it slower>next classical tournament is in december
>>546235585Men who lift but shy away from serious squats and deadlifts come across as soft, vain metrosexuals instead of giving off based athlete vibes. OHP and chinups are part of Rippetoe's Starting Strength program, btw, so association with his advocacy is no reason to be a coward and skimp on leg day.
>>546236419>3 days of squats a week>bodyweight chin ups instead of weighted because it's a routine for obese peoplet-rex-ass freak what openings do sharting strength tards play? I bet something dumb like the philidor
For me it's she.
>>546224551On move 85, Sasaki sealed a move.
>>546236419t.
World cup soon. What will ourguy Peetah play?
>>546238493>bodyweightWhy would you assume that? It doesn't specify in the image but many programs that include chinups or pullups have you scale the resistance to your level of ability from assisted to weighted just like you would scale the resistance with any weighted exercise. From the book:>Weighted chins and pull-ups are an excellent source of heavy non-pressing work for the upper body. Plates are suspended from a chain on a belt, or a dumbbell can be held in the feet if not much weight is used. A good rule of thumb is that when you can do 12–15 bodyweight reps, it is probably time to start doing some of the work weighted, possibly alternating higher-rep bodyweight workouts with lower-rep weighted workouts. Several sets across are appropriate for chins and pull-ups, either weighted, unweighted, or assisted. And many people have made steady linear progress by microloading their chins the same way they program the bench press and press, adding 1.5–2 pounds to three sets of five reps every workout. Try them all and see what works best for you.>what openings do sharting strength tards play?They'll catch you with Fool's Mate every time.>>546239201Based squats-and-oats frog can do the hard lifts and has a better foundation for maximum long-term gains.
Dubov REALLY wants to become a member of the slurp gang
what a mad lad
>>546242827Delayed alapin is very chuddu and /chess/-coded
Watching Howell and Jovanka is quite pleasant when they aren't forced to do meme chess.com style commentary.
>>546234225>jew shops his eyes turquoise blue in thumbnails to grab 90 IQ viewersIt would be nice if yidtube didn't recc his slop after I watch a single chess video.
the ad during the fide stream>goa, an adventure paradise like no othermeanwhile a 5 star hotel has bed bugs
favourite sicilian defence variation?
>>546245020
>>546244860anyone who doesn't bring their own tent and sleeping bag to a 5 star indian hotel is not a true strategist
>>546244643My eyes are actually a very similar shade as the eyes that people shop into youtube thumbnails.
>>546228268That study only referenced 8x8 American checkers. And it is only “solved” in the sense that if two super computers play a thousand games against each other, most games will end in a draw. There is still a ton of opportunity for human play, even in the American checkers variation with more limited piece play.The 10x10 international variation and the 8x8 Russian and Brazilian variations are not “solved” and are incredibly tactical and dynamic because you can capture forwards and backwards, and in these variants there are flying kings which move across the board like a bishop would and can capture lots of pieces.When you hear about Ivanchuk playing “checkers”, these are the variants we are talking about. Although still not as strategic as chess, there is still plenty of room for very dynamic and tactical play.
Looks like we have another slurpy day
cute indianinsane nose though
>>546247905I like a woman who looks like her father charges a mean interest. It's the thinking man's aesthetic.
>>546247905she's Georgian I think
>>546247469>And it is only “solved” in the sense that if two super computers play a thousand games against each other, most games will end in a draw.not most, all of them. the computer knows the optimal play
>jeet commentator on the fide stream instead of based miro
slurpil drawbov
>>546250396damn
>>546244860Well it's a real adventure, innit? Will you make it through the night, etc.
>>546249301Miro has voice issues today
Leko!
>>546253693Position looks cemento, yeah?
Arjeet grovelling for a draw before based Leko.
>>546215689They’re known for their talent. >>546220690We’ve had some really great opening discussions recently.
>>546249216A human brain is not the same as a super computer that can calculate a million moves a second. Overall, that study only pertains to American Checkers/English Draughts, which has considerably more restricted piece movement compared to International Draughts and 8x8 Draughts. For anyone interested, you can play against the computer on lidraughts. I am not trying to be a consistent shill like our resident Shogi enthusiast, but I want to share knowledge when I hear people slandering Draughts because they ignorantly think it’s a children’s gamehttps://lidraughts.org/
>>546256315>In semiconductor manufacturing Was cut from the end of your headline Which is true. They all go back after training us.
>>546259074>they have to go backBrilliant!!
>>546257880Chess is a children's board game. Children write chess books and become grandmasters.

>>546238621you mean "her."
>>546238621my mom
>>546238621who that grinch ass nigga
I do all the big lifts except deadlift because I think it’s a dumb exercise and a good way to fuck your shit up
>>546256315They're know for credential fraud, sycophantic ass-kissing, and aggressive nepotism. Indian coworkers and contractors are often like LLMs that will tell you what they think you want to hear rather than tell you the truth, which is what makes them so naturally good at scamming boomers like Trump.
>>546245020I grew up on the Dragon. It worked because none of my beginner opponents knew how to pawn storm correctly. (Embarrassed to say that I got caught by the Levenfish trap the first time though.)
>>546270147Deadlift is just leg press for people who have healthy core, grip, and back strength. If it feels dangerous to you and you're not pushing it to Eddie Hall tier extremes or abusing PEDs you're either doing it wrong or you need to do some remedial work to correct physical imbalances or deformities. Picking a heavy object up off the ground is the most basic and natural movement in the weight room.
>>546271375>They're know for credential fraud, sycophantic ass-kissing, and aggressive nepotismAnd that's why Trump loves them
>>546277489Absolutely.
I love the Queen's gambitI can't stop playing it
>>546281654This is a 1.e4 general
>>546281654Why?
>>546286073i play the london
I love the dutch
>>546286615I just like this position.Lots of players have no idea how to handle it and lose material trying to save the stuck black pawn.
>>546290598this is why I just reject it always
>>546290598I like pushing e4 immediately. Its like calling your opponent a dumbass to his face, you have the entire center
Give it 10m B4 janny nukes half the thread>>546260096Sec Bessenet said it today >>546270147Only if you do it wrong.
