>>552311041Confession time:After all the cheating talk itg I made a new alt account specifically to test how much cheating you could get away with on lichess specifically.I used Chess Assistant browser extension (pic rel) and tried my best to avoid suspicion (made intentional blunders, lost games, premoved when possible, took time to "think", played the opening and some endgames from my own memory).Result:> ~300 elo increase in both my blitz and bullet rating> 0 reports, even 0 angry messages> both the time management and evaluation graphs look normal, I certainly wouldn't suspect someone based how they look> 1 month of daily use without lichess catching anything about itIt is my conclusion that online chess is completely cooked. There is no way for them to catch cheaters and there is no way for you to know if you're playing one. inb4 cheater scum kys etcI did it for science, it was educational cheating. I'm contemplating whether to share this with Lichess in a forum post but I'll probably get ip banned and don't want to lose my real accounts
>>552314173This is interesting. How many stockfish moves did you make in a game? 2? 3? What criteria did you use as to to decide when to use stockfish? Try this on jew.com to see
I just got my best rated win in blitz ever.
>>552314173lichess barely bans 99% acc same time for every move type cheaters, see lordbenthamit would be more interesting to try it on .scam and see how far you have to push it to get banned there, lichess having no cheat detection whatsoever is well known
>>552303050Didn't Keres play like a turbocuck?
>>552314862>How many stockfish moves did you make in a game?most of the middlegame and sometimes most of the endgame too, with ""blunders"" and thinking times strategically sprinkled in. >>552314862>What criteria did you use as to to decide when to use stockfish?Basically I would decide from starting a game if i wanted to win it or not. If i wanted to win it I would use it to either analyze live my own instinctual moves, analyze what moves the opponent might do or decide when it's time to make a blunder and how big to make it. I tried to avoid perfect play(as in first engine suggestion) for more than 2-3 moves in a row and just either choose 2nd-3rd option or straight up blunder something and then slowly crawl back in the lead. The blunder is not necessarily a material one, I would go for egregious positional blunders as well.I would do the same in games I decided from the start I would lose, because for this experiment I wanted to use assistance in 100% of the games I played>Try this on jew.com to seeMy oldest chess account ever on any site is there, I really don't want to risk it. But unless they can detect the browser extension directly, I really doubt they would fare any better.
>>552316254based cheater, let's have a /chess/ meetup and play OTB to see who we can expose ITC
>>552311578How is this relevant to chess?
>>552316254Try it on endgame.ai and worldchess. I'm curious to see how they compare.
>>552316945I mean she's a chess twitch streamer and youtuber and pretty well known. But yeah this is just simping.
>>552314173This is not surprising and is something people have been saying for years. It's almost impossible to catch a smart cheater, especially one who is also good at chess. Kramnik said it, Caruana said it but then people called them paranoid
>>552316945shes likely higher elo than you
>>552315608Congrats anon.
>>552318030>CaruanaDidn't he say ironically something like "1800 on chess.com are the greatest players ever" ? I know people like Kramnik and Gata Kamsky are really crazy about it, but somehow I prefer to trust some elite players than reddit and other shills promoting .scam This problem is impossible to fix. I encourage anon to keep investigating this shit and keep showing the reality about jew.com and licheats
>>552321386Thanks he was rated 2570 and hung is queen in one move LOL
Genuine question: what's with all the Jews in chess? It can't be a coincidence so many of them are good at this game.
>>552311241Memes aside if you haven't heard the news she said last month she went deaf in her left ear, so please pray for her to recover.
>>552324363they're over-represented in almost all wealth, power and intellectual domains. it can't just be nepotism, i think they're unironically just better than us goys...
>>552324363Idk, do you want to ignore IQ scores? because that's a satisfactory answer for me.
>>552324414Probably because she was getting fucked in her ear too often.

>>552324201>Didn't he say ironically something like "1800 on chess.com are the greatest players ever" ?he did
>>552324816>they're over-represented in almost all wealth, power and intellectual domains.Most definitely. I'm just bewildered why so many of them would waste time on pursuing chess. I can understand something like banking, but a board game? It just seems silly.
>>552325434No, sorry. You posted that before claiming it was debunked. And I said the same thing: you can't handwave away all contradictory evidence to your viewpoint and then unquestioningly accept everything that is in accordance with your viewpoint. You have to apply the same rigor to both sides. This fat zoomer did not do that at all.
I played badly yesterday, so now I'm taking a break
>>552314173>share this with LichessYou could always try r*ddit.
>>552314173Seeing this has caused my desire to play on Lichess (outside of 4545) to plummet.
>>552332013Oh yeah, that reminds me, I wanted to sign up for that.If anyone wants to be on my team, put my username in the application: MemeTeam2016
>>552314173good reason to play duck chess. The engine is so weak that if someone didn't play 100% of the engine moves they'd make mistakes and lose horribly. Even giving away 1 free pawn to avoid suspicion = an autoloss. And if they play 100% engine moves, it'd be super obvious since the duck engine never changes what it does (it doesn't try to hide knights, it doesn't trade bishop for bishop when it'll just be an even trade, etc.)Regular chess is like 25% cheater rate (you just don't always notice), but some variant it's sub-1%
>>552335818Shutup idiot
>>552325918I did that once and havent played in like 2 years
>>552338654I'm an addict thoLast September I started playing again, took a week vacation, then got a new ATH shortly after
>>552339042all time high, i suppose that means
why do zoomers invent a new and useless acronym every post. that would be a NUA, I suppose
>>552335818I don't have the FI for duck chess.
>>552339738Aqua teen hunger
>>552314173Based for testing that and sharing the results. I too did this in the past except I would copy moves from the native Mac chess program on its highest strength, which is probably like 2600 FIDE tier. Super rudimentary, literally leaving the game for every move. I would be able to cheat way more successfully now. But not only did I not get caught, I would frequently run up against better engines and lose. I ended up closing the account myself eventually because I felt bad for the honest players I was destroying.By contrast, the same method last about 3 hours on chess.com. I don’t know if they’re still as rigorous though, seems like even chess.com’s cheat detection has gotten much worse.
So what, is everyone in this thread an “educational cheater” except for me??? Anyone else literally never cheat because it’s morally wrong and hurtful or am I the only first world human being here?
>>552348227Obviously cheating is wrong, but intelligent people sometimes briefly do immoral things for the greater good and increasing knowledge. Like renaissance grave robbers who were dissecting cadavers to learn about anatomy.To cheat consistently and as a way to cope is despicable, to do it for like a few weeks educationally is not a big deal. People will survive.
>>552348632No, sorry, that's not cutting it. You will all burn in Hell.
Something else people don’t tend to know about lichess is that there are a lot of bots, both in anon and the registered side. You can tell because they sometimes forget to leave the game, you can check back on a game from weeks ago and the green light will still be on as they sit there. FIDE Arena was already caught doing this, but they’re just much less popular than lichess and were a little too obvious. Lichess would have the same incentives though, going back to the beginning of the site. It’s basically impossible to get an unbotted rival site to com off the ground, Kasparov himself didn’t have the clout and failed twice. You have to fake it until you make it, and reduce the bots as the actual playerbase increases. But there are still a ton of bots. It’s one of the reasobs you get a game instantly on lichess at all times, while com, the more popular site, can take up to a minute to find an opponent.
>>552294795No, it’s actually mostly the guy who calls everyone Catmixer. The rest of us moved back to /tg/ awhile ago

The necrobumps are getting sadder.
Shogi news: Masayuki Toyoshima won the Ginga tournament, a non-title rapid tournament, defeating Sota Fujii in the final. Apparently, the result of this game (it was pre-recorded) was accidentally leaked by Nikkan Sports, who were forced to issue an apology. What a blunder.anyway, here's the game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8R788xlbCQ
many anons in this thread won't know the joy of enemies being overcome with despair and resigning before they're even 1 pawn down
>>552383332>inb4 the haters show upFull support for duck anon. You might be a patzer at regular chess, but you're still number one in duck, fair and square. Keep it up saar.
>>552381210>IMG trannyKys
>>552383836I will. It's so much less stressful just squishing people on demand.
we are approaching levels of death not previously seen before on /chess/.
>>552384416Have you thought about starting a YT channel or something to monetize and grow duck chess? I feel like you could go pretty far with it. It's a very niche thing, and the people who are really into it would definitely support you as the number one player on CC.
>>552385442he could easily get as many as 6 or 7 subscribers for his hundreds of hours of work! good idea!
>>552385442been trying to win the world championship first before starting a channel and giving every opening subtlety and trick away, but qualifiers are dumb timed arenas (so one person can play 10 slow games against grandmasters winning all 10 and other guy wins 40 games and loses 20 games and qualifies instead somehow)I expect most likely I would only have gotten 2nd place at the time but it's frustrating if guys in top 3 don't even get to play in the tournament at all.
>>552385574>nooo you should give up instantly so you can play chess for free and post balding men on imageboards like i do!!1!You are retarded, and this is exactly why you'll be poor for the rest of your life.
>>552385890Damn, I had no idea. In any case, good luck with the whole thing anon. I just think it'd be a shame not to capitalize on it while the iron's hot. You're number one right now, so you should be promoting yourself as such. Worst case scenario, duck chess dies out after you've already built a small audience, and you pivot to regular chess and start selling scam courses like every other online chess creator. Get that bag king.
>>552385442also, because youtube only pays for large channels. Chessable pays for smaller creators, but chessable has zero variants support so that's not an option, even though it would've been fun to make a bunch of playable puzzles.
do you really listen to music while you play? my calculation is worse with music.
>>552387596I might be unusual, but my preferred method is to start each match with one of my favorite songs on loop, it relaxes me and makes me play the opening better.But after 3-5 minutes of it looping, we're out of my opening, and the music starts to be a distraction that clashes with my calculations, so I turn the song off, and instantly my thoughts become super-clear now that complete silence is back again. I really need to make a macro to start/kill my music player with a single keybind mid-game...
>>552385953It's somewhat common on this site but he's by far the most extreme example of "complete loser that can only feel proud about lack of negatives" I've ever seenHe clearly has nothing to feel good about so instead he settles for:>I might be a failure but at least I'm not bald!>I might be a failure but at least I'm not a manlet!>I might be a failure but at least I'm not a zoomer!etcIt's legit sad
>>552388036set up a playlist that has the same song repeated a few times
>>552389068not a bad idea, but sometimes we finish with the opening phase in 30 seconds, sometimes in 2 minutes, sometimes it's 4 minutes before it's midgame. Depends on both how fast the opponent moves and how quickly they start to do really weird aggressive moves that make me turn off the music and need to calculate.
The reason the average player online is so weak compared to the average club player is not that club players spend more time on serious study, but rather that otb chess is more conductive to improovement than online chess. Anyone here who's played an otb tourney here will know what I'm talking about.
>>552390461nonsenseclub players are better because you have to be more dedicated to chess to bother going to a club
>>552388481it's okay, he's not particularly good at trolling, so far as I can tell he's not making anyone mad, just disappointed and pitying him like the kid in class who makes fart noises. I find if you just never respond to them even once they eventually realize they're making whole folders of stupid pictures and nobody is even listening.
>>552390461I'd say the number one reason online players are naturally so weak (the bad 90%) is the vast majority only follow three routes1. play like complete shit, get upset, log off2. play like complete shit, instantly click NEXT GAME and tell themselves just forget about that last game and if I play more games I'll improve3. play like complete shit, click computer-analyze-my-game select a random moment it said "blunder, should've pushed c4", say to twitch "Oh I should've pushed c4, durr" then clicks NEXT GAME and naturally would never learn why they should've pushed c4 (the concrete results that happen in the next 10 move series) or learn the proper reasons to spot when c4 will become a factor in the futureNeither option ever makes anyone improve in the slightest. Improving only comes from stopping after every single loss and going through every move without using the computer and figuring out where you screwed up the game. The computer is fine for a second opinion, but it's more important just to fix your mental processes and calculation ability, which getting instantly handed a single move from comp doesn't help with.
>>552390591>t. never played otb>>552390971Thing is, you don't even necessarily need to analyze after the game at all to get a leg up on the online onlies. Finegold says people don't improve at chess because they make the same mistakes over and over again, and he's right. With otb, you care about the games way more so the mistakes stick with you and you remember them in subsequent games.
>see one guy running in shitty beat up trainers>see another guy running in expensive running shoes on a running track while wearing full sports gearwow the shoes made him run faster
>>552391517>t. never played otb
>>552391583t. never bought expensive running shoes
>>552390971basically, chess strength is very tightly tied to how good your own private 'evaluation function' is. If you can ask a computer if a position is +0.5 or +2.1 it means nothing if you don't understand how to fix your evaluation function so you can accurate predict if this pawn push will make the position +0.5 or +2-3.Most amateur players (<2100) when computer just hands them 'this is the good move' are trying to just memorize "when I'm in this opening and on move 14 I've done this, I'm supposed to trade off bishops instead of retreating"This is concrete - it only applies in one exact position out of billions.But on the other billion board setups, they're adrift because maybe their memorized 10 moves deep is 2300 elo, but their actual evaluation ability never stopped being 900 elo level.I've seen a chess twitcher play an opening beautifully at 2000+ quality and then literally struggled for 5-10 minutes to checkmate with king+queen vs king... the very first thing we teach to 7 year olds learning chess after they understand the basic rules of how pieces move and what moves are legal. I was pretty shocked.
>>552387596Yes, once you’re beyond a certain level you no longer calculate in a way that’s an interior monologue of “so if I go here, then he goes here, then takes takes”, which is why music distracts you, because you can’t hear yourself think. Strong players don’t calculate that way, they SEE the branches of moves in their mind’s eye, it’s spacial-visual rather than like learning a new language. I listen to podcasts and music and all sorts of things while I play now, but I used to be like you so I know where you’re coming from and why it’s like that.
>>552392676What’s the difference between that interior monologue and the “visual” calculation? Don’t they do the same thing? I’m still “visualizing” when I calculate
>>552393360midwits vs high iq
>>552393360The difference is that the calculation of weaker players is rooted in language and talking through it. This is because they don’t have a firm enough grasp of the board to see it without looking at it, and they have to walk themselves through the line with a play-by-play. Stronger players’ calculation is purely visual, and they could walk away from the board and continue calculating because they have the board in their mind. So when we “calculate” it’s not this mental exertion of: if 1+1 then 2, then 2+1 is 3 etc. It’s the same as when you see 1+1 and already know it’s 2. The visualization is instantaneous. Basically, if you can’t follow along when someone recites notation without consulting a board, your visualization is not strong enough to know what I’m talking about. For stronger players the board is simply a reference point, for weaker players it’s where the whole game is played.
>when they scream "I hate you please die" as they can't understand their attacks are futile and the bleak and desolate sands stretch far away in the distance
>brownoid decides to try playing without cheating for a change
>>552393738yeah, I always try to point it out as a bad habit when a twitch streamer who plays stupid blitz thinks he needs to "slow down and talk each move out loud", the verbal moves are never actually an improvement over subconscious spatial awareness, if anything, using the verbal center of your brain is totally unrelated to geometry so it makes your play 10x weaker even without the part where it burns your clock down trying to say things out loud.And the part of your brain that does openings and all your 1000+ hours of concrete memorization is your long-term storage memory, which should not be tied into your speech center at all. Tying in speaking is chaining a dead weight to the leg of a man swimming.
>>552392676>>552393738I’m 900 elo btw
>>552394369He’s just playing the real queen’s gambit opening
>>552394371They do that because they see GMs like Hikaru and Magnus do it, unaware that they’re doing it to keep the low rated casual audience apprised of what’s happening, whereas those guys are just larping and vocalizing their interior monologue to actually calculate
>>552390971>2. play like complete shit, instantly click NEXT GAME and tell themselves just forget about that last game and if I play more games I'll improve
>>552357284I wasn't kidding either.
>>552375094Poor girl. I hope she recovers.

TWO Brilliants in my 600 elo chess.com rapid game. Am I a grandmaster in the making?
endgame.ai is a cringe ghost town. why do chess players keep trying to create their own chess site? it isn't going to happen
>>552403158the lower your rating the more chesscom hands !! out like candy, you shouldn't put much stock into those, nor the AI "coach", nor the game rating, it's all nonsense designed to make you spend money to get more flatterythe only non meme thing in the game analysis is the engine eval
>>552404104Honestly, I don't care much about the coaches or game review anymore after playing for a couple of months. I play games on chess.com but I paste my game PGN into Lichess to run an analysis and figure out the best moves on both sides.
>>552404418>I paste my game PGN into Lichess to run an analysis and figure out the best moves on both sides.that's a good way to do it, that plus puzzles everyday are all you need to improve for now keep at it anonbtw I wasn't trying to put you down in the first posts I just don't want people falling for chesscom manipulation tacticsI'm also guilty of analyzing there when I know I'm gonna get an hecking !! it does feel nice, as long as you are aware it's kinda meaningless it's all good
The best chess youtuber gets on average 2-10k views per video. Sad.
>>552406868maybe he should change his strategy and try something new instead of endless analysis slop. he doesn't have to do clickbait like gotham jew, but stuff like speedruns, improvement advice, meme openings, guess the elo, playing meme bots, covering drama etc. i thought grandmasters were supposed to be smart but they keep doing the same shit over and over and expecting something to change.
>>552407706I'm glad he focuses on "analysis slip", that's why his content is so good. It just so happens that the best content is not very profitable because most viewers are shitters.
>>552408145it's lazy content. if there's a tourney going on, he can cover those games. if there isn't, he just picks some random ass master game. you wouldn't want to see him stream some blitz games? or review some chess books? or literally anything else except boring analysis vids that you can get from turning on stockfish and going through it yourself?

>>552431681Over Christmas I played my cousin-in-law.

>>552403167It didn't have cute anime girls and gambling so of course it was going to fail.
1853 rated puzzle apparently, which I can usually solve in <1min - this one seems absurdly difficult compared to the standards. Can someone else solve this and tell me how you figured it out?

>>552439029...Aerelant?
>>552437651Ah interesting - so that’s the answer but the reason ends up involving more than just winning a pawn. But that’s good enough for me, thanks. Very often puzzles are like this - if you don’t see the ‘true solution’ you need to be content with just finding the best move (winning a pawn) and then often stumble into the true solution as a result…
>>552437651>>552439175Actually I’m confused, why tf is the evaluation +5 after rh8? Passed pawns? The lines I looked at ended with a pawn fork on kc7 but it’s still winning regardless I just realized The actual puzzle went that black plays Nec8 which leads to a more obvious solution. But the problem was that I couldn’t find what to do after Kc7.
>>552440613Seems like engine nonsense. Must be a new puzzle that hasn't reached its true rating yet
This was from a game I just played. I had black and shockingly after this move, the evaluation is 0.0. There's no forced perpetual because the king can escape to shelter behind his rook, but in doing so I can get a rook on d4 and then check him with the other rook on the third rank and then put it on d2 so I have doubled rooks behind the pawn and I win it. Amazing. I just sleepwalked into it and got lucky that resourced was there.
My criteria if a difficulty range of puzzles is too hard is this: if most puzzles have a solution that doesn't look clear and I don't understand why it's good, the range is a little too high for now. The resulting position should be fuzzy to me in no more than 1 in every 4 puzzles. I don't play classical and it's important i understand why what i just did was good in order to be practically useful.
Signing up for a local 30+30 tournament next month. Only 3 rounds tho
I hurt my leg again by punching it when losing in blitz.
>>552311041>see new thread >Sure hope we can go a whole thread without mentioning catmixer… Well that was a fail.
>>552448902The good thing is we haven't mentioned Karla yet. I mean Beary isn't even in the discussion at all either. Neither is seriouschest OR zoombam!
>>552311241>>552311578Are her leaks real?
>>552450025You just mentioned them, YOU FUCKING IDIOT
>>552450390Really... you don't say, do you doggy divider.>>552450174I believe the consensus was yes.
>>552450971First of all, that ius a pet term created by the UFKCING ANT5ICHTRIST ACATMIXER HIMSELF, and secondly if anything it should be dogdivider or dogseperator because it's not kittymixer.
>>552451290Catmixer is dead already. We killed him
Remember when cat mixer won the Christmas tournament and humiliated zoombam? That was based.
>>552454687Remember when the tourney the next day was literally just zoombam because he didn't allow me into the team because he was paranoid about catmixer?
>>552455295He’s obsessed. It’s a mix of both funny and sad.
>>552425849I got a lot out of Laszlo Polgar's book because it forced me to think in terms of which side controls which squares. I think overall stuff that changes the way you think about evaluating positions ought to be good.
>>552431681Nah, it's no fun for either side. I'd love to have a buddy who'd be around my strength and willing to play drunken otb blitz, but such people are in short supply.>>552439029Chud-coded, just like the Caro-Kann.>>552445512Don't forget to post a review.
>>552404418>figure out the best moves on both sidesJust to be clear, for novices it's less important to know the absolute best move and far more important to understand ideas, plans, and concepts. Otherwise you could start wrongly associating moves as being good in superficially similar positions.
>>552419049What's your Elo?

>>552447825Proof?
>>552469080It didn't leave a mark but the muscle is sore. I didn't mean I hurt it like severely injured it or anything.
>>552467451Let us know if he replies.
>>552467451Kek, you went easy on him. Stallers deserve the rope.
>>552467451kek you should've done the >sir i can teach you chess for only $60 sir, best price in the market
>>552476072I used to do that. I have gone through all kinds of things. First I was just saying good morning sir and congrats on the gukesh victory sir and stuff, then I moved to saying good morning sir to them every morning after the game until they block me (that was the plan) but I learned that they never block me doing that. Then I was offering to teach them for money and they didn't like that at all. This one I was just pissed because it didn't even let me end early, I had to wait out the full time.
I am thinking about giving the Berlin Ruy Lopez a try, anyone have experience with it?
Only 1% of players can solve this puzzle.White mates in 2
>>552482073I have thought about playing the Ruy as white so I have something to play other than just the Scotch
>>552482950Be ready to face one million different Ruy Lopez variations.
>>552482691 Qd2, simple, you need to threaten to jump onto the a1-h8 diagonal and also threaten to take on h6 if it's pushed. Technically you're not threatening to hop on the diagonal yet, but if any of the pawns move they release control over a square that you will move your queen to and mate the king from, and if the h pawn moves to h6 OR h5, you can move your queen to h6, capturing a pawn or otherwise, to checkmate the king. Fun puzzle, simple but requires some thinking, it's mostly logic and less chess.
I've been thinking about playing the ruy for white, is it good for shitters? (1400 .com rapid)I'm a bit worried about the marshal because the database says it loses often and is pretty easy to arrive atI've played the reti gambit for a really long time fwiw, so IDK very much about e4 e5 let alone the other responses from black :x
>>552487970From looking at elaynahs chesscom rapid games at 1900 there’s nothing you need to worry about from the marsahall. There are several anti Marshalls you can use as well, but yeah if you accept their gambit you might get checkmated if you dont know the lines. Just watch a video on anti marshalls and you should be grody.

>>552500868...OR the Pirc is a weak ass opening inviting you to just push all of your pawns
Venezuelan anon please stay safe
>>552502035the black player didn't correctly punish you for being a retard to try the four pawns attack. It immediately equalizes for black if he respawns correctly, as it's too ambitious and makes all 4 pawns vulnerable and gives black all the counter-attacking opportunities he wants to just trade everything off.There are good 3 pawns in mid openings, but 4 is a noob trap.
>>552502282I agree with weaver, pushing the 4 center pawns was fine. Can you show us how black can easily equalize? I think weaver wasn’t aggressive enough actually
>>552502282I admit that both 5. f4 and 9. b4 were not good moves, and that black played his own defense of choice badly. But after 5. f4 the game is equal at worst. How would you "punish" my four central pawns?
>>552502825Don’t listen to that retard, he doesn’t understand our pawn pushing ways.
>>552502962Yeah, in fact the fish wants me to push 5. a5 instead and got really angry I didn't push to f5 way earlier.

ATTENTION, ATTENTIONLordbentham has played another rated rapid game. This is not a drill. https://lichess.org/OvcbZoFC/blackAnd he lost without a struggle! Did he turn over a new leaf in 2026 and put his cheating ways behind him???
>>552522610Occasionally. Playing against engines is great for training technique.Sometimes I'll put in a won position from a grandmaster game (pic rel) and see if I can win it (I can't).

>>552394371This is bs. Even GM Danya speaks the moves out loud. In his final stream he does it in Russian.
>>552527258Streamers speak moves when playing because they are literally streaming to an audience and it's the easiest thing to say.
>>552527437This.

>>552541773I do.
I thought 1200s were supposed to just blunder all their pieces. When I, as a 1100-1200 something player (lichess), blunder my pieces it's because they're tied up in some indecipherable spaghetti configuration with the opponent's pieces. It's frustrating being average / below-average IQ and not being able to hold information in my head or track multiple streams of thought through to completion or see obvious logical intent. It's just frustrating being stupid.

>>552557058Qd6 would probably be my choice with the idea to play Bd7 against captures
>>552558341Unfortunately that loses a piece because White can play Qxb4 after Nxc6 Bd7
>>552558298Does sopranos have any chess scenes? I like the wire because there’s a chess scene in the first episode
>>552558298>>552558581Yeah, the Jews' writing really speaks to me as a stupid goyim and changes my worldview, and how they use negroes and Italian criminals to tell their stories, simply epic, my man.
>>552558505Yeah I rushed that post I meant if Nx bxc6 Bx then Be7 looks good and if Bx Nx then I wasn't sure about it.
>>552559242The problem with that is he can take with the queen:1.Nxc6 bxc6 2.Qxc6+ and if ...Be7 then Qxa8+, and if ...Qxc6 then Bxc6+ still wins the rook.
>>552559763huhWell, I figured I'd lose there anyway.
>>552559148I dont know anything about sopranos so i have no idea what youre talking about. You sound a bit deranged though, so youre obviously in the right place.
>>552556394How is that bait? Simply put, you're not white if you don't even have $120 a year for their diamond subscription. But you Limonkeys wouldn't get it. You're too busy losing your inflated elo to Pranjeets using Stockfish.
>>552561307If you block with the knight you still lose the a8 rook. There is only one move that doesn't lose outright (+3 for white) from the original position and Qd6 is not the correct move. The evaluation for the correct move is around -0.3 in Black's favor.
>>552561635Holy shit the janny deleted his post
>>552561853No, he just realized his mistake so he deleted it himself, which is fine to do, except I already replied to it so it's whatever.
>>552561635Yes, I realized. Wrote a complete bullshit solution and while trying to refute that I think I found it. It's gotta be Rb8. I can't do variations but it feels correct.If that's still not it, let me congratulate you if you found the solution in the game, I give up. Thanks for posting the position, it was interesting regardless.
>>552561439I'm Jewish so I'd obviously not spend 120 dollars a year for something I can get for free. Only stupid goyim do that.
>>552563061Yep Rb8 is the move. It is a pretty unique and cool theme to me with that x-ray protection. I didn't find it in a game, but it has come up more than once so I had to look up the lines to it.
>>552563562I liked this exchange a lot fren. It's an easy 'trap' to fall into for white so knowing this move should help you get a lot of good positions in the future.

>>552583415No, it was a straight up 3+0 unrated game
>>552583519How’d you manage to play him? Were you watching his stream or something?
>>552583141Link:https://www.chess.com/game/live/147557727722Seems pretty based
>>552583519So you were cheating? He is literally 1000 pts higher rated than you.
>>552583796I used my prime sub on him because he will analyze your games, so I send my OTB games to him because it's a free way to have a high-rated player look at them. I saw he was live today so I challenged him because he plays subs sometimes. Sent a challenge and won lol
>>552583859Nah meme team is pretty strong, my guess is Ben was streaming and let his time run too low
>>552583808oh derp you were replying to someone with the link.
>>552583859I'm just that good...
>>552584106You’re definitely higher than 1600 on chess.com, he probably lowered his guard because of that as well. Still a huge win congrats
>>552584316No, he's literally 1600 chess.com.
>>552584410Isn’t that lower than Elaynah or whatever that whores name is
>>552584608She doesn't play blitz much so Idk her blitz rating, but it is around what her bullet rating is.
>>552584410Yeah, I'm slowbrained, I was holding mid 1700s until I played on tilt on the 1st
>>552584970Do you know if he was streaming? He must have been pissed even if it was unrated
>>552585168He was, I'll post the video in a sec
>>552584970The chance of a 1600 elo player beating a 2600 elo player is approximately 0, based on how the elo system works, so something suspicious happened.
>>552585408Not really, it’s surprising but not impossible. I’m checking the livestream to see what he was thinking
>>552585168he's actually live right now. stream has been going for 1 hour 43 mins and game was less than an hour ago, literally like 2 mins before it was posted >>552581786 so he was probably live during.
https://litter.catbox.moe/m5kyjwr6lpxtt3pb.mp4Here's Ben's perspective for anyone interested
>>552585408Pretty normal for a 1660 to play at a 2350 rating level on demand against a GM

Why do Weavers always have to CHEAT? Does nobody on this site play fair? Do you people even return the shopping cart?
The funny thing is that my accuracy was lower than his. He had Qb1+ on the move he timed out on, I'm surprised he didn't find it with 20 seconds left still, but he is too old and fat now I guess
>>552586550He also wastes tons of time reading the donations/subs. He goes down almost a full minute right from the start.
>>552586550Happy for you memeteam, great way to start 2026. The screen cap is worthy of the next threads OP image

You’re goddamn right.
>>552585629Yes, really. Approximately 0 does not mean impossible, that’s just literally what the chance is.
>>552597975Elo and the win probability associated with it is thrown out the window when the guy 1000 points higher rated spends half the game reading chat and is more focused on thanking new subs than the actual game. Not to take away from the win, it’s still completely legit.

>>552518254I remember my high school English teacher had us read an article in class which stated that Elliot Rodger committed his crime because he was influenced by violent Hollywood films that are primarily made by white men. I told my teacher that this article contained an inaccuracy, and that Hollywood films are mostly made by Jews. He condemned my statement in front of the class but I didn’t get in trouble because I was good student and had never said anything controversial before or after that.

one of the deadest generals going. easily.
I have a possibly stupid question regarding the en passant rule/game design. So I think I understand why it was added, to not make the two-square jump for pawns become a strategic option for escape from an enemy pawn controlling the space jumped over, but to just simply keep the two-square jump a way to speed the game up. But I was wondering, say you had a bishop that was in the place of the advancing pawn and the enemy pawn zipped next to it with the two-square jump. Why wouldn't en passant apply with a different piece, so the bishop could take it? Maybe that's a stupid question and I'm missing something obvious but I was curious. Thanks.
>>552779820I haven't thought of that before. I think it is because of how important pawns are as blockaders of other pawns. Each pawn starts the game securely blockaded by the pawn in front of him and then also has the 2 pawns of either side to capture him if he advances. Getting a pawn to the other end of the board is such a huge achievement and focus of the game that they didn't want the 2-square jump rule to allow a side to create a passed pawn where a pawn passes his neighbor without ever getting a chance to be taken.Other pieces can reroute and have more than one option to take a pawn, and a pawn is not considered passed or not based on whether it can be captured by other pieces.

What's your favourite blitz/bullet swindle? For me it's putting your queen where the opponent's (unprotected) queen can take it, hoping the blunder is so out of the left field that the opponent won't notice and will blunder his queen back. This works best when you're also threating something else or checking.
>>552790550Yeah, I do that all the time. It really makes the opponent rage when they fall for it, but for me they almost always just take the queen. :-(

>>552796735Everyone knows that unless you're some turbo autist grandmaster, the knight is better.

>>552797171Yes and the queen is better than two rooks.

>>552797639a semi slav
>>552797563I’m sure everyone here knows this but it always depends on the position. An octopussy knight is worth more than a rookie rook.
>>552797639Matthew Sadler's book on the queens gambit is fantastic and I read it cover to cover, so I bought his books on the slav and semi-slav as well. Didn't get as much out of them unfortunately.

I made a chess joke one time that Daniel King appreciated. When the Carlsen vs. Caruana world championship match was going on, King was making analysis of the games, and he said in the video something about 'then the Caruana's position would look something like an Old Indian" and I said, "Maybe he could have gone for that, but Carlsen has a lot of experience beating old Indians" LOL because Anand.

Chess com closed my account for FairPlay violation and now I’m appealing because I didn’t do anything wrong. I think I’m going to win but the whole situation is very strange. My account was 4 months old and I was about to reach 2000 rapid rating (still winning more than half my games but also losing some). Now it’s been almost a week and this support guy is not super helpful. They even told me it would be easier to make a new account but I’m stubborn because I know I’m in the right.
>>552820242i mean the fact that you are taking the time to appeal it instead of making a new account probably made them actually review your profile in detail, assuming that the average cheater would just make a new account instead of sending hatemails at their fair play team
>>552820242most average weaver
>>552820581I just checked and it actually happened on the 26th. The process is probably delayed right now because of the recent holidays but it still seems very slow. When my account gets reopened I’m going to message all my recent opponents that got points refunded.
>>552821631>When my account gets reopened I’m going to message all my recent opponents that got points refundedwouldn't they re-refund those points if you were found to be clean?
>>552821741I don’t think they’d take back the refund from them. And they’ll probably leave my rating where it was when it got closed (around 1980). I was three games away from reaching 2000 when suddenly, in the middle of a game, my account got logged out. I was extremely confused at first and immediately appealed when I realized what had happened.
>>552822136You cheated. Just admit it. No one gets banned without cheating on chesscom unless they're literal grandmasters like Firouzja.
>>552822279I’m going to post my hand as proof I didn’t cheat. They asked me to link my lichess account as evidence of my innocence, which I did. It’s about 2200 lichess rapid and has the same account name. That’s why I’m pretty sure I’m going to win my appeal and this was just a weird fluke on their part.

This loss feels so numbing. We hear Danya's voice reverberating all over our home. His brilliance, passion for chess, humility, and connection with each and every individual stood out as features that can never be forgotten. His use of words such as erudite, dulcet, obsequious showed not only his love for chess but also his love for learning in all realms. HIs memory will live on in his students whom he not only taught our beautiful game but also how to be a wonderful and kind human being.
It's hard to think of a loss which has impacted the chess community the way Danya's has. Much love to his family, friends, and the chess communities in both the Bay Area and Charlotte. Thank you to everyone involved with the Charlotte Chess Center Foundation for putting together a true legacy for Danya.
>>552836403>This loss feels so numbing. We hear Danya's voice reverberating all over our home.turn down the volume, neighbors are getting creeped out
>>552836575It's reverberating in our hearts.
I listened to many of Danya's lectures on YouTube and Twitch, especially those that were meant for beginners. As a chess master, I loved doing so, because he explained basic concepts that I thought I understood well (and complex ones that I knew nothing about), in such a way that I felt like new pathways of understanding were opening up, every single time. I remember meeting Danya at the World Rapid & Blitz Championship in NYC, 2024. I told him he was my favorite chess instructor. He shook my hand and said something like "I don't deserve that honor". He was modest and an upstanding person all the way to the end. Rest well Danya

I'm a gay man who has been following professional chess for about 15 years. I'm genuinely curious if any top players are gay. But when I ask this type of question, in a twitch chat for instance, I never seem to get an answer, and instead get comments like, "Why does that matter?"I live in America, so I don't know if political factors outside of this country has anything to do with it. Maybe top players would never come out because they travel to many countries where that could be problematic?

>>552838770damn thats nice
>>552839275start by playing rapid and actually use your 10~15 minuteswhen you get comfortable enough with thinking deep moves, you can start dabbling in 30 minutes classical and longer time formats
>>552838770kino
>>552839873ok, so as a noob should just ignore the blitz and bullet formats for now?
>>552840752yes because it's too fastas a newcomer you want to build up good habits - vision, tactics, etc.with blitz and bullet you literally have no time to think about your position, your opponent's position, long sequences, etc. - and what will end up happening is that you will build up bad habits and keep blundering on the same thing over and over againyou should also analyze your games, both your wins and your losses, doesn't matter if you use some ai llm or stockfish, just take some moment to think about the other variations that you and your opponents could've done during the game (sequence of move that both of you missed or didn't want to play)
>>552841157awesome thanks so much for the help

Rest in peace, Danya. Your brilliance, passion, and contributions to the game of chess will live on.
>>552872637Never has a loss of someone I only new digitally hit so hard. RIP Master teacher.
Drugnya Narcocheatsky.
those karma farmers are something else kek, I believe all of them are pajeets
So many prodigies are good at only one thing. Danya was a rare exception that was also good at sharing the thing he was good at. From impressions to puns, personal stories and chess history, he was always entertaining and educational both. To be a caring and kind human being on top of all that? The loss defies measure. Rest in Peace, Danya. You deserve to have some peace.
We sharing Danya stories? I'm in.One time I was playing in a tournament in St Louis, it was my second rated tournament and I was really nervous. Imagine my shock when I sat down at the board and saw Danya sitting across from me! I stuttered out something about how it was really cool to meet him and that I watched his channel all the time. He was so nice and said he could tell I was nervous, when the arbiter wasn't looking he crushed up some addies on the table and told me to do a line. Was a great tournament experience.Later on in the tournament i went to the bathroom and found him passed out on the toilet. I shut the door for him so he could recover without interruption. RIP, what a legend
>>552874983I played some chess in high school but was never really good and lost interest shortly after. Then, about a decade later, I played a few games again and was interested in actually learning how to improve. I came across his YouTube channel and was instantly hooked. I probably watched over 100 hours of content over the next several months, and slowly saw my games improve. He had such a unique gift for teaching. I was always so excited to log into chess.com and catch his games live. He was such a calming presence in my life, even if I only ever watched him on stream. I was so deeply saddened by his passing. The quality of his content was truly unmatched. The positive impact he had on the world of chess was immense and he leaves behind an incredible legacy. May he rest in peace.

>>552903005kys
Ever since I moved to Charlotte, Danya was my chess coach and the highlight of my week. Nothing made me happier than going over to his house and improving at chess through his diligent lessons and listening to the humor that we all loved him for. He was the kindest and most thoughtful person you'd ever meet, but he never hesitated to tell me what I needed to hear in order to improve. For many years, watching Danya's late night grinds was the way I'd fall asleep, always counting on his amazing streams that started around midnight. I still haven't come to terms with this loss, and never will, but I'm thrilled to have been close with this legendary human being while he was still around. Thank you for your lasting contribution to the chess world, you will never be forgotten Sensei Danya.

>>552946821of course.I'm glad the cellphone cheaters are still beatable in variants. Constantly running into them this year like never before, like this cheater I just played who loses to brand new accounts (<1480) but also makes super quick strong moves against a 2626 then doesn't know how to resign when getting stomped into the dirt after he plays one non-engine move.If stockfish wasn't over 1,000 times weaker in duck I'd have had the ben finegold experience.

Is it true Lichess doesn't have a legit anticheat or are you anons simply jesting?
isn't there any coverage of tata steel made by humans?
>>552972760>5 relevant streams covering it>all brown
It’s not the real Tata Steel it’s a random indian tournament no one cares about
>>552972480The only automatic cheat detection happens if someone is using the lichess analysis board during a game with the same position on the same account, that's literally itFor everything else they are dependant on their unpaid mods reviewing reports manually, problem is they don't have anywhere near enough mods to read all reports and they require an absurdly high standard of certainty, they are on record saying if they are "only" 99% sure someone is a cheater they won't ban him The end result is people like this getting away with it forever despite being reported a million timeshttps://lichess.org/0MG9GlTD/black#45https://lichess.org/1lY68UqL/blackhttps://lichess.org/PbNE0IWr#1It's sad because I love everything else about lichess but it's hard to play there knowing everyone could cheat against me with complete impunity
>>552972760tata steel?more like...caca steel!
>>552974241>not caca streetit was right there
>>552973647Top engine moves throughout the entire game and still no ban is diabolical. Lichess is cooked.
>>552972480the reason everyone tells you that is because that is reality. Lichess is free and zero anticheat. I use it only for analysis board and games with streamers/friends. Chesscum is the only website for actual laddering.
>>552974472but then it wouldn't rhyme :(
>>552975460>>552972480Lichess does have an anticheat system and takes fair play seriously: they have rules forbidding outside assistance (like engine help, opening books, or people advising you during a game), and they use automated systems and human review to detect and act on cheating. Here’s how it works in practice:Lichess prohibits any external assistance during games — this includes chess engines, opening books, tablebases, or help from others while a game is ongoing. Cheating in rated games can lead to sanctions such as account flags, bans, or game forfeits. They employ automated analysis to detect suspicious play patterns that may indicate engine use or other unfair advantages. This typically involves comparing moves to engine recommendations and statistical behavior.Some specific triggers (like having an engine analysis board open on the same position as your game) can instantly flag a “cheat detected” mark. Human moderators may review cases flagged by the system before taking action. If a player is confirmed to have violated fair play rules, Lichess can ban or otherwise sanction the account. In some situations, detected cheaters might be placed into a separate playing pool rather than publicly labeled immediately, and opponents may be refunded rating points. This differs from some other chess sites.

>>552995142He's frankly not a great candidate. Frontal balding responds worse to treatment than other patterns, and the fact that he's got it this bad at 22 means two things. One, his hair loss is so aggressive that it might tank the fin, and two, he'd have to get on fin so young that he'd jeopardize his masculine development.Best case scenario was probably starting oral minoxidil at like 17 and minmaxing lifestyle to minimize all contributing factors to stall the hair loss before hopping on fin at like 21.
