What are your predictions for the Candidates?
>after all, why shouldn't I?>why shouldn't I just take one more piece?
>>561530326I predict that divya will be the hottest but bibisaras booty will make an unexpected performance
>>561530376Funny line after Bb6, the king gets to f1 and mates just in time with Bg1#Real niggas play Ba7 for the style points though (not controlling the promotion square)
>>561532996I suppose actually it's not forced because 1... Bb6 2. Kg1But then its just easily winning2... Bxd4+ and you move away to prevent stalemate
>>561530326boring

>>561520659Picrel is definitely a coincidence, but CC posted something similar for Christmas, which was clearly intentional, yet people still called me a schizo. They even put a pawn (cuck) in his little snow globe so he can watch the WHITE QUEEN with her BLACK KING.
>>561530326the indians and Bibisara are the most interesting players here but I'll still root for my slurp queen Anna
>>561530326bibisara is the only fuckable one(although tan is a type) so I will root for her to win on demand
>thread got archived right after the retarded mutt grammarnazi humiliated himself againnot in the spirit, don't miss the chance to laugh at this subhuman>>561488003
I have a problem with Andras Toth. Look at this video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hd__c5zVsNMPause the position and try to work it out. After a quick look, you'll see that d3 is clearly winning. But Toth doesn't even venture into the d3 lines (which are winning much more simply than the complicated shit he goes over in his video). Instead he spits out what Stockfish wants to play. If you run the position with Stockfish on, it plays how Toth plays. Run Stockfish, play d3 and Stockfish will evaluate black as winning but it isn't Stockfish's first choice move. It is, however, a very clear and easy human move to see. A sample line that I quickly calculated when I paused the vid:d3 cxd3 b5 Kg1a5 Kf1b4 axb4a4 b5a3 b6a2 b7a1=Q+Why does he always try to overcomplicate things in his videos? He's always trying to show off and WOW his viewers, like WOW omg WOW what a crazy position WOW I better buy this guy's chessable courses or get coaching from this guy. Why can't he play simple chess? I'm so glad Chest beat him in a rapid game. Andras is a fraud.

>>561530326HikaruDivya
>>561561141In my language it doesn’t mean a thing.
>>561566037You're speaking my language
It's crazy so many people rate the rating sitting semi-retiree who plays less than one super tournament a year so highly just because he's siting on a high number he earned 3-4 years ago and he's "famous" on youtube.You force me to bet and give me the same odds for everyone I'd take anyone of fabi pragg,sindarov,giri and wei yi before even considering hikaru.he has a better shot than the 2 jobbers but that's it
putting my life savings on Wei Yi
>>561566359No way Giri has a better shot than Hikaru.Betting is degenerate, but I bet Hikaru scores higher
>>561566773Giri won the grand swiss to get there, hikaru won the louisiana state championship...
>>561566359>3-4 years agoHe finished 2nd in the Candidates 2 years ago, 1 draw away from winning.
Nice white opening, bro
>>561566115And you're listening to mine
>>561567641And no one's ever done that
>>561566951shouldn't have jobbed to jobbit 2 (two) times lmao
>>561566951At that point he was still in form from playing a lot in 2022-2023, how many super tournaments has he played since the last candidates?Norway chess twice and that's it right?The lack of classical practice has to have caught up with him by now, his match with awonder was grim
>>561568343Guess which one is Hikaru
>>561568343:xG-guess which one is Hikaru...
I just looked at the candidates lineup yesterday and saw a possibility of the worst possible outcome.Imagine a world championship of Gukesh vs Prag.
>>561569052no way shartnanandhaa has a shot
>>561569579You never know. In the past in these tournaments it's the one you least expect.
>>561569018this graph only looks so godly in a vacuum because it happens to start at his biggest slump when he was at his lowest adult rating ever, it's impressive that he still gained rating in every single tournament since 2022 I'll give you that but again post candidates 2024 we are talking literally one or two eventsthe latest gain was from farming 1800s but I' sure you know that
>>561569648I think the only two surprise winners in the Fagnus era were Carjacking and Flukesh
>>561569904Anand winning the 2nd time was a big surprise.
>>561569052lmao that would be funny
>>561567517Nice
New PR 99% accuracy. Has anyone here gotten 100%?
Is chess.com's review feature good enough to justify its price? I have to say getting !s and !!s is alluring. Lichess doesn't offer that. Also actually explaining why inaccuracies are inaccuracies looks valuable.
>>561566037And that's what English never did
>>561586387nothing on .scam is worth paying for
>>561586387its explanations are either super vague or shit you could figure out by just playing some moves out with the engine. absolutely not worth it.
>>561561141Divya can piss in my mouth anytime she wants, just saying
>We are copy-pasting arguments from the archive again. No idea who thinks that helps the sorry state of the general.
>>561530989>>561542351>>561588710DAE feel like the sexualization of and sexual aggression towards women and girls in chess is majorly problematic? Women aren't your fucktoys for ugly incels to ogle at and jerk off to, and they dont owe you sex either. I don't know why these people are allowed to post this stuff, it's really disgusting and sexual assault is never okay.
>>561589509>>561589509as usual I ask you to point out a single copy pasted postas usual you wont because there aren't anysuch a weird and easily disprovable thing to keep lying about for years lol

L move
>>56158638720 depth is not sufficient for opening analysis, as long as you keep that in mind it's good enough, but the lichess version is both free and better
>>561589809Yeah, but have you ever tried talking to them about it? They spike my cortisol and they won't change...
>>561556348Is ridiculous how cute she is.
>"""""blitz""""" state championship coming up>7+0What the fuck, that's practically rapid. Shit should be no more than 5, but preferably 3.
The Colle is so fun when niggas cooperate with it. I hate I missed Nxf7 though. I knew there was something good in that position.
>>561617731How do you define cooperating with it? Or rather, what would NOT be cooperating?
>>561585863Yeah I’ve gotten it a couple times, posted one of the games a few threads back.
>>561589809Divya was designed for large white phalluses to penetrate
>>561619539Playing 3...g6 (neutering the d3 bishop), 3...Bg4 (pinning the knight and preparing Nd7 and e5, breaking the center before white can and taking over), or 3...Bf5 (eyeing e4 and d3) ruin the Colle. Usually best to transpose to the queen's gambit.
>>561613028they're probably afraid of piece flinging time troubles + being considerate of boomersand otb 3+0 is crazy, it should either be 3+2 or 5+0
>>561629824>and otb 3+0 is crazy, it should either be 3+2 or 5+0I went to Mardi Gras in New Orleans four years ago. By the time we got to Bourbon Street I was drunk and high. Among the sea of bodies there was a black guy with a table and a chess board taking games for $20. I went over and challenged him. He let me pick the time control so I said 1 minute, not grasping in my haze that 1 minute OTB was significantly harder than 1 minute online. He played the Trompowsky but I was ready to meet it. I was winning by the end but got flagged; he had about 10 seconds left. I offered a rematch for $10 since I was broke at the time, but he wouldn't lower the price.Anyway pic related, it's (You) regarding your fear of 3+0 OTB.
What if I just play a strategy of never moving a piece outside of cover and never making any offensive play and just waiting for my opponent to make a mistake instead? What ELO do you think I could get to without having to study?

I will go to my chess club for the first time. What am I in for? Would it be fun to fake being a caro london chud adult improover, or should I be honest that my prime was 15 years ago, but I am ok at the game still?
>>561654221play positional grindfests and rant about indians
>>561651282what is this?please don't tell me you made an AI chatbot based on your chess crush
>>561654221I would be genuine, that opens the possibility for making friends or returning which being exposed as a weirdo larper acting on weird obscure memes will not do.
>>561651282This is exactly what I did in one of my recent otb games. I was lost because I misplayed the opening yet I've never felt calmer during a chess game. When it's out of your hand, all you can do is play fast and try to keep it complicated. On our level it can very easily happen that the opponent loses the thread, carries on like he's still winning and as a result ends up blundering.
Funny how even the Indian IMs feel the need to randomly update r/chess about their online gameshttps://www.reddit.com/r/chess/comments/1s50qvg/played_with_987_accuracy_with_grandmaster_fide/It’s almost endearing how new they are to the internet.
>>561566359It’s crazy how mindbroken you are by Hikaru that you’ve been malding at people rating the #2 player in the world for like, 5 months straightThat’s literally definitionally crazy, there’s no rhyme or reason to it, you’re just insane.I’m not even going to rebutt your nonsensical claims because there’s no point, you aren’t ignorant just crazy.
I wish a good player like ErGODmus or Faustino Gold was playing the candidates instead of these jobbers
>>561568343>Th-the lack of classical practice has to have caught up to him, r-right? Th-there’s no chance he wins when GODBI CHADUANA is playing, c-correct?https://www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=2900984

>>561661284I’m just happy Fraudruzja has finally washed out of the field entirely. Was super tiring how it was always finally “his year”. People might begin to come around to the fact that he’s just the next MVL now That said, it’s bittersweet, because Nodirbek didn’t make it either, and has been kind of exposed too (in terms of not being capable of becoming The Guy)
>>561664178The thing I hate about fraudruza is that it's not for lack of talent, but love of the game.He is literally the anakin skywalker of indian chess.
>>561662467cowards didnt use any good fischer quotes
>stolen by the jews>Eminem?The brave quotes would have made it too obvious
>>561667014He gives me the impression that he knows he has the ability to be world champion and even no1 but he doesn't want to work for it and sees chess as a way of making money and does everything to maximize profits with the least amount of effort.
>>561667014>>561668579I disagree with that to the extent that it was always true, I think it's kind of true *now* because he's coping about not rising to expectations and is probably adopting a more careless attitude as a defense mechanism, but I think he did care before, he was just never that guy and was overrated. His ceiling has always been online speed chess specialist and classical chess gatekeeper. His hype was always unwarranted and purely a result of the fact that the chess world was on high alert for the next Great Chess Player after Magnus since it was approaching that time and Firouzja seemed to fit the bill.As an example, when he broke 2800, he primarily did so in tournaments against players like literally David Howell, and if you actually looked at his games in those tournaments he wasn't playing exceptionally or anything and was even playing terrified of the top players, like Fabi, who he tried to force a draw against and then lost, in one game in particular that I remember. But all people saw was that he broke 2800, was world #2 and must have arrived. This was the sort of event that continued fueling the hype. I didn't buy it and said immediately that his rating would crater soon, which it did.For me personally it's funny to see this new narrative that no he really WAS that guy, he just didn't care enough, because I was saying he wasn't that guy the whole time and now that it's clear he's not, well it's just because of this or that. No, it's just that everyone but me was wrong, actually.I'm actually kind of confused how some of the top players like Magnus especially failed to see through him like I did. I shouldn't be better at evaluating players than them but I actually consistently am.(1/2)
>>561674294(2/2)Firouzja is like the inverse of Keymer, who I've always said is tactically blind and talentless but highly trained. Keymer is strong in clear, classic kind of chess positions where he can make the most logical moves and play for a clean conversion, but if a win depends upon him being able to show any kind of tactical ability or creativity at all, don't bet on it. He might find it, by pure luck, far more often he does not. You can literally tune in to any of his games and the commentators will start screaming OH THERE'S A TACTIC WILL HE FIND IT WILL HE FIND IT and you can reliably answer "no" and be right.Firouzja is the opposite. He's a very gifted tactical intuitive player who probably neglected proper training for most of his childhood in favor of spamming speed chess games online, which he got away with because his natural talent was good enough to carve through the junior ranks. But now he's playing with the best of the best and just having a knack for the game and some spunk isn't going to cut it. But it's also too late to become an adult improoover at that level. If he didn't spend his childhood grinding like Keymer, he's never going to be on Keymer's level, positionally. This is why it seems Firouzja has flashes of brilliance and must be a real contender and then falls apart in something like the Candidates where everyone is on their A-game and plays too sharply and comes undone, like here against Nepo iirc, I don't have time to watch and check.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ro56Kg3v8sgThis is a typical Firouzja kind of game. He gets into his head that he'll just be a genius and win by being sharp as usual but is board blind when it comes to logical, positional chess and gets brutally refuted. After this game he stayed up all night playing bullet.That's Firouzja.
>>561674842Ok I checked and it was actually this game from the same Candidates I had in mind, not that onehttps://www.365chess.com/game.php?gid=4352249But both serve the point lol
>>561660936>you’ve been malding ... 5 months straightAre you the fanboy who had that giant schizo meltdown months back because you couldn't cope with most of the general not considering hikaru to be magnus rival so you started accusing everyone of samefagging?If so you have a lot of nerve calling me crazy and either way you sound a lot more "malding" than me, saying "I’m not even going to rebutt" only to try to rebutt minutes later really shows your seething state lolThe one thing we agree on is that there is no point arguing with insane people, I capped your post you cap mine if your idol does badly I'll mock you if he wins feel free to mock me, nothing else needs to be said

>>561677980He can "improve" in an abstract way, the point is that he will never improve to the level of being the best in the world. If you aren't clearly on that track by Firouzja's age you never will be. >For example Magnus improved up until 23 y/oMagnus was #1 in the world at 19 and already such a phenom that he was included in a book about the greatest players of all timehttps://www.amazon.com/Chess-Secrets-Classical-Carlsen-Rubinstein/dp/B00QSQXXEUThere's no comparison between him and Firouzja
>>561678675yeah next Magnus will be Ergodmus or Faustino Aura, it's nobody from this street shitter in-between generation

Still, in my only two recent tournaments and my rating actually went down, though it might have just been who I was paired with.>is your whole style revolving around cheap tricks and hope chess?do you have godlike flagging skills?I just play faster than my opponent. However much time they take for a move, that’s my limit. That way I can’t possibly lose unless I get checkmated.
>>561689487I was listening to some heavily accented commentary and thought they were saying Winter War and thought it was a line from some famous Russo-Finnish game.
Let's say you call super GM level play around 2750-2850, how much does the accuracy decrease in faster time controls? Like is a GM in bullet about as accurate as a 2300 in classical

I’m now up 2-0 in my OTB tournament. 2 more to go. My opponent lost on move 10 but made me play it out. He was big mad. This is why we poozle I guess.
>>561794542Fuck yes, I’m up against a kid rated 870.
when was the last time something funny got posted in /chess/? I don't find racism towards indians funny because it's all true

http://live.shogi.or.jp/kiou/kifu/51/kiou202603290101.htmlhttps://abema.tv/now-on-air/shogiThe fifth and final game of the 51st Kio title match is being played, between Sota Fujii (sente, the Kio title holder) and Yasuhiro Masuda. The match is a best of 5 (currently tied 2-2), and the time control is 4 hours per player.The opening is bishop exchange, although Masuda is playing a sideline that loses a tempo compared to the mainlines.
Who will win the Candidates and why:Men: SindarovThe why: Going back to like 2013, the winner of the men's candidates has not been seeded higher than #4. This could be random, but I think the reason is that the top players are focusing so much on preparing for each other that they underestimate the lower seeds who get just one or two signatures win and sneak up on them to win the whole thing, while they're busy drawing each other. The reason I think it will be specifically Sindarov who wins of the lower seeds is this precedent combined with his own strength. Of the lower seeds, he is clearly the strongest. Also, I like his attitude, I think he's a killer.Women's: Always bet on China. Either Chinese girl, but I'll go with Tan.
would /chess/ have gotten mogged here?
why does magnus always sound like he wants to kill himself
>>561820843Not me, no. That’s not good at all on either site.
>>561821508Because he knows you’re gay.
>>561821508because he spent his whole life playing a kids game invented by indians
com's new "sky and sea" board is freaking kino
>>561818973isn't the the second tied match Fujii is finishing in a row? Must be pretty stressful compared to his previous typical one loss blowouts.

>>561828027>isn't the the second tied match Fujii is finishing in a row?yeah, not even a week later too.>Must be pretty stressful compared to his previous typical one loss blowouts.especially since before this, he'd lost 2/3 title matches that went to a full set.

I just don't want one of the boring Candidates like the magnus gen jobbers or the mutant kid to win
First round pairings. Do they consider Giri somewhat of a jeet and that's why he's got Prag or is that just a coincidence?
4 draws today
>>561838646nepal is basically jeets
For me, it’s sindarov
>>561838646Couldn't care less who wins when the GOAT isn't playing. This entire thing is pointless without Magnus.
>>561838646Probably a coincidence but they did also put the two ex soviet countries against each other
>>561821508I get the feeling he's so bored because he has finished the game
Why the fuck isn't it starting, do these chess savant-retards sleep till lunch every day or what?
i reckon i'll be rooting for bluebaum. he has that /ourguy/ energy, everyone underestimating him, talking shi about his yeeyee ahh haircut, doctor doofenshmirtz ahh accent. yeah... he's got my vote.
Why is this Sindarov character such a heavy favourite, I have literally never heard of the guy before this tournament.
>>561846526most promising current junior
>>561846104i get some fischer vibes from him
>>561846992Is it his looks? Because the personality seems the complete opposite unless he's faking it.
>>561847373yeah he sometimes has that similar intense kind of look about him
>>561846104Agreed
>>561846526He’s Kramnik’s top guy
>>561841249maybe he'll make an appearance on the stream like he did last year where he was trashing on their moves lmfao. i'm only watching for hikaru's funny fucking retarded looks he gives when he's calculating and just to see if he wins. either him or fabi i'll take but hikaru winning would be pretty funny and nice. then he'd go on to dumpster on gukesh and everyone in here knows that to be a fact. gukesh lucked into his shit and gets dumpstered on by all the top players
>>561822283whole life huh? i didn't know 35 is the human life expectancy these days ugly incel retard
>>561759790you have to be fucking joking. please tell me you're just joking. how many fucking tournaments did he win in the last few years? if he enters anything he wins. what the fuck are you basing your retarded predictions off of, retard? another decade of magnus dominating is a very reasonable estimation. i wouldn't be surprised if it's another fifteen years instead

>>561588449lol nobody gives a fuck about lichess. just esl's play on it, oh, and marc esserman. all of the pro's are playing on chess.com and it's been that way since the beginning, it's the premier site. lichess is a pile of shit with disgusting looking pieces and boards
>>561853475>all of the pro'sit's you again, seething retard-kunback at it with yet another abysmal dogshit take
>>561853294he just had a kid and is 30 nigga it's a couple more years at best and it's over
>>561853294you really need to learn to handle someone disagreeing with you about such trivial things without combusting in autistic rage like a manchild
>>561557854there's many different mental aspects to the game that you need to be able to shift gears into at a moment's notice. rook pawn endgame? better get comfortable with reading files and prioritizing who will convert first, etc. that's a whole separate batch that you have to have in your mental filing cabinet to be able to pull out when that particular endgame appears. your first goal should be solidifying all of these different aspects to a respectable level and then from there it's simply improvement all the way to your desired rating
where's the FUCKING HYYYYYYPE
>>561821508that's just a sober norwegian
How do you respond when someone asks how good you are at chess without sounding autistic? I'm around 2000 lirapid, and I was talking to a foid who asked me that exact question, to which I replied: "I'm good compared to the large majority of amateurs, but bad compared to pros." She looked a bit puzzled, but I'm not sure if that's because she's a woman or because I answered incorrectly.

Daily endgame puzzle.https://lichess.org/training/0ZtCd
>>561858549I’m honest and own my ability with pride, I just say “very good”. The average person doesn’t even know the ranking of the master titles, you aren’t going to be able to convey the nuance of not being quite a pro. It’s sufficient for them to understand that there’s no world in which they or anyone else they know can compete with you.
>>561865770Did you bet on Hilaru :3Sorry 'nonny Fabi is in his winning era, a draw was always the most likely outcome for the two, they'll farm the others.
>>561865770what are your ratings to speak with such confidence about super GM chess?not making fun of you, I'm actually curious
>>561865770>Fabi’s locked into a clear drawhahahahaha stop the larp little bro
>>561866376900, why?
>>561866376Higher than yours little babby>>561866459Agree to kill yourself when I’m right then. His opening was nothing more than a performative way of playing for a draw
>>561866653zoomer using the word performative, how surprising
>>561866653didn't have the balls to say it, ok NOW I'm making fun of youalso my rating is completely irrelevant as I'm not speaking with confidence about super GM chess
Will this general be completely broken if somehow someway, the jeet (giri/prag) wins?
>>561866653you don't understand the most fundamental part of chess, stop larping
>>561867016If you weren’t so low rated you would know it’s hard to evaluate an openingYou can also feel free to kill yourself when I’m right
>>561867114yes, if pragg wins im quitting chess forever
>>561867309*not hardDumb site>>561867230Good, so then you agree to bet your life? Lock it in
the poos need to be flushed
>>561867309>when I’m rightyou know most games at that level end in a draw and you have the engine eval it's quite likely it will end in a draw it wouldn't make you right, the problem is calling it a "clear draw" when it isn'talso see>>561854569 you sound mentally ill, are you karla?
>>561861407Fide has direct cam streams of every game without commentary.
>>561867704The post you linked is not even responding to me dumb schizo. Clearly it hurts your pseud feelings when someone knows more than you and can talk about the hobby you’re shit at but want to take pride in as an “intellectual”, that’s not my problem. >W-well ok you’ll be right after all, b-but it’s only because—Just shut up lol, if it makes you feel insecure to see people discussing the games don’t come to the /chess/ general. You’re seething for no reason
>>561861843>>561861630I somehow agree with both of these posts.
>>561867415you don't understand that chess is a draw and you're mentally ill
>>561868064>and you're mentally illYou’re having a meltdown pretending to be two people over someone predicting the result of a chess game with authority because it makes you feel insecure. Insane thing to reply lol. You’re a great example of how pointless it is to come here now, enjoy your dead thread I’m out of this nightmare
Fide stream died. Is it really that hard to get the broadcast basics down right? It always happens.
wow fabi has gone under 'karu in time.
>>561868009>The post you linked is not even responding to me dumb schizo.so what it definitely applies to you as well>W-well ok you’ll be right after all, b-but it’s only because—do you think every game that ever ended in a draw was a "clear draw " at every point?and you call others retarded
whats with this dude who looks like firouzjas older brotherhe sucks

>>561868757He’s right actually and if you don’t stop seething about it and taking over the thread I might have to weigh in myself and blow you out. Kindly move on sarr
i smell a samefag
>>561869407Yeah your only way of arguing is to accuse everyone of being your revolving cast of rogues and samefags, literally that’s all you have. “Nuh uh” and “so YOU must be….!”It probably blows your mind when someone finally posts itt and isn’t just you replying to yourself
>he admits it
>>561869589>Yeah your only way of arguing is to accuse everyone of being your revolving cast of rogues and samefags>someone finally posts itt and isn’t just you replying to yourselfyou don't even see the irony do younta btw not that you will believe me lol
This is the same mentally freak btw >>561675931He gets called out for being the same guy obsessively malding for months and ingeniously confirms it by going “Oh so YOU must be my boogeyman from months ago heh”
>>561869810>Oh so YOU must be my boogeyman from months ago hehyou STILL don't see the irony do you?
i heard leko will be doing commentary for the WC match
>>561869948Ooooh >implyingOoooooh >Uno ReverseSpend the next five months seething because you didn’t know openings can quickly equalize into drawn positions and accusing everyone of being “me”. It won’t be. But that won’t stop you from replying to yourself talking about how clearly it isIf you weren’t a hopeless total waste of life you would ask yourself how I knew that post was you. But you will not be doing that.
>every game still evenare we getting draws all around?
>>561870319Nah, Sindarov will win
>>561870418but muh eval
>>561870471Oh I see you were trying for a gotcha. No, that’s not how that works, thanks for exposing how clueless you actually are.A position can be (and usually is) evaluated as “even” by the engine and have dynamism and tension and clear winning chances. A position that is dry as shit and clearly heading to a draw will also be evaluated as even.If you want to learn how chess works just ask instead of pretending like you know and trying to ebically pwn your betters. Grow up.
>giant schizo meltdown because you couldn't cope with most of the general not [agreeing with you on whatever the subject is] so you started accusing everyone of samefagging?can't you see this is a very rare and recognizable form of insanity and I don't have to be seething for 5 months to recognize you again?you are doing it right now in case you are too retarded to realize
>>561861026Chess 24 has that sweet Hungarian angel
I think he's mad because he failed once again to get anyone to his thread and now /tg/ is deader than everkeep up the spamming for another year champ maybe that'll work
>>561870885Insane how densely retarded you are. YOU are the one who got recognized. Both in that post at the time, and now once again. That is because YOU are the one who is distinctively retarded and insane and always samefags after getting clowned on. You have not recognized “me”. You have linked posts that weren’t in response to me thinking they were, accused me of being Karla, accused the anon who took my side of being the samefag after he called you out for clearly being one, as always.YOU are the issue.Post here often? How’s the general going? Little dead?Dumbass.You literally derailed the thread with a full on melty over NOTHING, which is what you always do.
Looks like a slurpfest so far. Thanks, candidates
Caruana is gonna lose in a time scramble, but no comments from /chess/
>>561871241that's the funny part I do have a very recognizable writing style with clunky long esl sentences and you still accuse others being me because of how insane and insecure you are, I will spoon feed you but the system doesn't let me reply to so many posts at once to show you which are mine and which aren't let me see if I can divide it in a couple posts

NOBODY CARES. We literally just want you to shut the fuck up and stop your mentally retarded temper tantrumThis was the first day of Candidates. It’s an occassion where oldfags, newfags, regulars check in on the thread and give it some life again. Instead, they’re going to check in and see your dumbass spamming and samefagging because somebody had the nerve to suggest a game would END IN A DRAW. You are nothing but a massive nuissance and we just want you to stfu. Move on

>>561871896>>561872027You’re hopeless. Genuinely sad
>>561872052you literally can't conceive I'm not lying do you, your insanity is fascinating, are you functional IRL?if so what's your job?
Can the most sane of you two that keep arguing just stop? The other retard will not have any fuel then. Please
>>561867230>>561866739also not mine I had missed them
>>561872138You never understand that it’s obvious that you’re lying because you are uniquely and disctinctively retarded. When someone says in a chess thread “The opening has equalized and is heading for a draw” the reaction of sane and sentient people is not to go “OH YOU THINK YOU KNOW? OH YOU THINK SO, WELL WHAT’S YOUR RATING” and start spamming and samefagging with varying typing styles “oh so you think it’s a draw because the eval says” People do not do this. You do. That is why I am always easily able to link you to your past instances itt from days ago where you are, as usual, defending yourself against samefag accusations and some other retarded take. “Nah that’s not me though” yeah we knowKill yourself
>>561872352I did, but as usual his ass was hurting too much to move on and he kept samefagging about it anyway. Long after I’ve left this thread he’ll still be doing this and arguing with new people telling him to shut up accusing them of being me.That’s what this thread is now thanks to him, get used to it or leave, which is what most people did. I only came back because it’s Candidates and was immediately aware of making a huge mistake lol
>>561872352ok I'll drop it the schizo never will it would be nice if some of these anons>>561871730 could confirm I'm not lying at least, I do get autistically mad when falsely accused of something and it would soothe that

>>561875487I don't think he's going to sell it, I think he's genuine that it's his own personal passion project, but I do think it's inevitable they're going to monetize, which is what moves like "you need an account do that" are for. It's business 101, you cultivate a consumer base and then monetize. Tubi, not a perfect analogy because it does have ads, will do the same thing soon.You'll start seeing announcements like "ok well our userbase has gotten so big that we just can't support the site anymore with just donations, so we're ONLY going to monetize analysis above Stockfish's default depth" and thus premium accounts are introduced for the first time and comification begins.

>>561875873>ok well our userbase has gotten so big that we just can't support the site anymore with just donations,put it like that sounds more plausible but I still don't think it will happen, I don't think lichess is growing at an high rate either the chess boom is long over

>>561876534If it helps I do think lichess will always be cheaper than com at the very least and probably not nearly as restrictive on freemium accounts. It will probably be like Free tier: unlimited puzzles and analysis, but you can't adjust the rating of puzzles and can only do analysis up to a certain depthMid tier premium account, something like $3-5: unlocks everythingHigh tier premium account, which is an open-ended big donation: special symbol thingy, thank you for your support!!I don't think they'll be a monster that just keeps growing and then growing hungrier like true capitalist projects like com

You "muh eval" retards are getting way too excited. Fabi's game is still a dead draw in practical play and still all he's playing for. be here later.
>>561878545it's not about the result, it was possibly the dumbest thing said about a top level chess game in this general
Can't believe the rival of Magnus is about to lose.

Remember when I said this? >>561872835One hour laterYou can literally tell this retard exactly what he's going to do, because he's retarded, and he'll do it, thinking he won the whole time rather than proving the point.He literally cannot help himself.

>>561879110oh yeah obviously he's wrong no matter what it's like if I said "since 2+2=7 tomorrow will rain" it's not like it raining tomorrow would make me less retarded but in his rotten brain if it does end in a draw he will be "right", I want him to KNOW he's wrong before I rub it inI know it kinda makes me insane too to care what some nutjob thinks but I can't help it I'm petty and belligerent like that

>>561884402Cope evalcel
>>561881481Yeahh saying "2+2=7 tomorrow it will rain" is equivalent to saying a drawish opening will result in a draw, that's something a a 6yo would understand in secondsWhat you are doing is comparing a nonsequitur to a logical conclusion, doofus
>>561884072I would tend to agree but svidler seems to think it's winnable I just hope he's not just saying it to to keep viewer engaged or something like that
>>561878987>>561884072Apologize.
FABI CHOKE FABI CHOKE
he actually choked
>>561885418>saying a drawish opening will result in a drawyou said it was a CLEAR DRAW around here you stupid fucking subhuman that what was called out(by several people believe it or not you pathetic coping schizo) don't change the goalpoast, I'm starting to believe you are a god tier troll because it really should be impossible for someone as stupid as you to read and write let alone using the internet, knowing the rules of chess etc
Why is the rival of Magnus getting BTFO?
>>561884072Retard.
>>5618860641. No I didn't, I said it here, and was correct. With d5 all the intrigue is taken out of the position and the flourishes are over. Obviously, there's still a game to play, and someone can blunder, which Hikaru did. That does not mean my evaluation of the postion as trending towards extremely drawish was incorrect. It wasn't. But what it did was upset an extremely insecure literal retard who has been absolutely MALDING about a throaway evaluation of an opening for HOURS ever since. >was called out(by several people believe it or notYeah you do this every time people clown you, it's so sad. You expose your samefagging by the very fact that you CAN'T just make a post on its own merit, you are obsessed, like all pathetic retards, in finding comfort in numbers. Even if everyone in the thread was agreeing with me, which many were, I would never draw attention to the fact. You do, and you samefag, because you're deeply invested in being validated, like all retarded pseuds.
Fagnus would have won this game 10 moves ago.
>>561886465you are intentionally baiting into thinking this is me samefagging aren't you?that's funny but he doesn't need any help being a paranoid schizo, I mean look at this surreal reply chain>>561880581he can drive himself to the wall all on his own

I said it's a "clear draw" meaning, this game is trending towards a clear draw. Not that the game is over, and drawn. You are so stupid>literal hallucinations too now lmao, show me one postIt will blow your mind to know most of the posts your dumbass responds to, that aren't your own, aren't mine. I'm only here in fact because people took up my argument for me and it felt wrong leaving them to your retarded flailings when I can just refute your babble every time you post myself.But I'm not interested in playing these "more people agree with me than you!!!" pseudslop posturing like you, I'm not going through the thread and linking them all.

I see. The power of Chokeuana manifested, but no one expected Hichokearu to make an appearance as well.If he wins it, this means that Fabi is destined to win this Candidates.
incredible sophistry on display itt

Jobiano vs Chokeamura
>>561887648>butI'm just the type of autist that just HAS to have the last worldThis is the same reason you started an argument over nothing fyi, you are deeply insecure and constantly jockeying for validation. Which, spoiler alert, you will never find, because you are literally retarded.>>561887782To what end literal retard? How are you this stupid? You want me to link the post so you can say "nuh uh"? Really, dumbass? I gave you the answer, it's no. I don't care, you do. Kill yourself
>Clear draw
All this nip had to do was let Fabi crash out like he always does. Absolute retard.
Jobiano tried his hardest, but Jobamura wouldn't let the win be denied!
did they draw? I think they drew
>>561888059yeah, the only draw these two retards get is a dick to their mouths
Spiritual draw
>>561888039>his is the same reason you started an argument over nothing fylol you were told you were wrong about a chess game and you immediately started telling people to kill themselves, I only got heated after you started falsely accusing me I might be crazy too but still galaxies away from your moron take a look in the mirror
ngl i kind of sex the divya
>>561888491>lol you were told you were wrong about a chess game No, no I wasn't. I was asked what my rating was to "speak with so much authority" about an opening trending towards a draw and then harrassed by you for hours, for daring to make a prediction while not being a super GM. You didn't give a contrary prediction and disagree, you were literally just malding for the simple fact that someone "spoke with authority" about your hobby that you invest too much ego in and made you feel small.>I only got heated after you started falsely accusing me I might be crazy tooNice try retard, you immediately conceded you were the posts I referenced and picked up the months long arguments of those posts right on cue.
>>561888707Same nigga. Literally the only brown girl I've ever seen that gives me a boner and makes me want to nut inside her.
Can't believe Magnus' rival lost to someone whose last name rhymes with marihuana.
reminder that Nakamura was never Magnus' rival, all of this was a marketing campaign by jew.com to get people hyped about their games. I REPEAT, Nakamura was never Magnu's rival in any time control.
>>561889138the funny thing is 'karu dove balls deep into becoming a speed chess specialist and champion of the speedchess game because magnus was absolutely fucking him in classical, but then Magnus also continue to butt fuck him in speed chess too.
>>561889121>>561889138This unbelievable loser really got out two devices to do this. What in the fucking world
There's something funny about these autistic chud meltdowns being about chess, there's a juxtaposition between chess's normie reputation as an intellectual sport for sharp minds and refined gentlemen while the reality is this
Svidlers mouth breathing bother anyone?
>>561888817
>>561889342yeah bro, nobody can have the same opinion, everyone is against you. Take your meds.pic related, all of my accounts to "gotcha"
this game cements that neither fabi nor naka will win candidates, sucks to say it USAbros but we lost
>>561889635Yeah dude, two people randomly reaffirmed your side of the months long argument that was literally just referenced for the first time in an hour and coincidentally post 4 seconds apart in a molasses slow thread.You are so stupid and impossibly pathetic.

>>561903119Yeah, I guess. I don't dislike either player so I'm not deriving pleasure from seeing him in shambles. People dislike Hikaru because of the sponsor shit he's done on stream right?
>>561903727People here dislike Hikaru because he's better than Fabi who they live through vicariously because he's a gawky nerd just like them
Pragg was pretty based wrecking Giri's plans at the Najdorf with a transposed GPA .... I have to admit...
>>561903727>People dislike Hikaru because of the sponsor shit he's done on stream right?That and bad sportsmanship.
>>561903727He's just very annoying. Have you ever watched his videos? He has a terrible personality

>>561906562I wish I could upvote this more than once! Happy kek day btw
>>561907053>hides his ratingoh no no no
>>561906864Hikaru is neither "gawky" nor the stereotypical "nerd". He's stocky and visibly powerful, and his day is spent streaming charismatically for millions of viewers and speculating successfully on the stock market. He's also a married chad with a child on the way, meanwhile who even knows if Fabi has had sex in years.
>>561907053Embarrassed to show the ratings, are we now?
>>561906562Yeah he's a fag ngl. Manchild. I'd be okay if it if he didn't hide behind a mask. Nepo has probably said similar shit but nobody cares because he's candid.
>>561907335>>561907384Shut up gay idiots
>visibly powerful,
>>561907734He’s got a low center of gravity and is meaty like a buffalo. Men with that body type would put a scrawny incel like you and Fabi through the fucking wall. Without a doubt he piledrives his bitch like a god, which is why she has already borne him a son.
>>561906864zoomer… gawky means skinny and lanky. nakamura is short and chubby. pic-related is gawky. ESL alert as uz.
>>561908814Both Hikaru and Magnus would fight like a retard, strong but incapable of landing a punch, super slow and awkwardNepo would be better but not by much, also bad at punching but would land and do damageFabi would be good at punching but folded into a pretzel by bigger guysWesley and Firouzja would be completely fucked and fold instantlyNodirbek would be the best fighter of all the top players by farOf the Indians nothing need be said
>>561907367>charismaticallyFor ADHD zoomers maybe. He repeats the same word 5-6 times and never pauses. It's an incessant torrent of BLA BLA blah.>stocky and visibly powerfulHe's short and wide. Fabiano's short and athletic >married chadHis previous gf was cute. The wife is meh
>>561910902Are you one of those idiots that think height matters in a fight?
>>561912382Hi everyone. The excitement of the candidates has brought me back to chess. What have I missed in the last 6 months?
>>561910902hikaru is skinny fat sedentary manlet I don't see where you get strong frommagnus always liked sports so I assume he's coordinated enough to throw a punchagree on the rest
Funniest part of it all is that hikaru was like 5-0 against godbi recently
>>561910902nobody on here should consider what a multi line posting attention seeking woman has to say on these topics
>>561914937he's a dad now. it's on his subconscious, i was worried about this happening
>>561907367>>561908814>>561910902Eric Hansen kicked Hikaru's ass
>>5619152453400 blitz called. what's your blitz on chess.com? 1850? oh...
>>561914937>godbilmfao, he can never be called such a thing after last candidates with nepo. tardbi is better, nonce
>>561915604>deflects in the face of irrefutable proof that Hikaru can't fight for shit
Patiently waiting for danya's recap
>>561915245https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FcokIxe50Awhat a classic the karate pose pic at the end gets me every time
>>561915931he was a drug addict and succumbed to it so i don't think you'll see that recap you're awaiting fella
>>561915994What was he on?
>>561916443vladimirium
>>561915245>>561915756That was like over a decade ago idiot
Has the time finally come Fabibros?
>>561916443https://www.cbsnews.com/news/daniel-naroditsky-cause-of-death-us-chess-grandmaster/>He had methamphetamine, amphetamine and the plant-based supplement kratom in his system
>>561916692looks like it by all measures. at this point it's worth considering how the fabi gookesh match will go
>>561916724he was actually on meth? holy fucking shit what a weird dude
>>561916724>>561916950What did he need those for. He was loved and accepted by the chess community and iirc he was a teacher in a chess school.
>>561916950That was clear even before it was confirmed, he was obviously tweaking.I don't believe in speaking ill of the dead or I would share some opinions on why he fell into drug use, and I don't believe it's because Kramnik is a meaniehead. But I shan't say more. Hopefully you can infer what I mean, which is that he had a guilty conscience and really was cheating and his overdose was a self-destructive half-intended suicide as a result not of false accusations, but the unbearable weight of them being true and feeling that he had betrayed himself and the world, and that his life was over. Beyond that, I wouldn't be comfortable saying.
>>561916950>>561917841My guess is that he got prescribed adderal since a young age like many americans, kept abusing it as chess doping then eventually had to look for harder stuff as his tolerance grew
>>561918170interesting. wow, didn't know that. he was playing on meth...
>>561918170>>561918250Kys dumb samefag, why are you like this
>>561918320i would never do that you ugly incel zoomer. but you should because you're an ugly zoomer
>>561918320>less than 60 second apartretard
I've been on adderall so long it's scary. I would need at least a month to clean myself while suffering and even then I would probably end up more depressed and dumber. It's grim
>>561918485at least you're aware of it. but yeah anon, that's how drugs work. you live through them, not through life. but at least you're not on something like meth so it's whatever
>>561918371Yeah ok dude>Asinine post right after a better one that clearly gives a better response>Respond to yourself with glowing praise of how fascinating it isJust dumb and so strange>>561918441He's using two devices, his computer and his phone on LTE. It's not even the first time today. He always switches up typing properly and then in lower case too
>>561918709ronnie mcnutt yourself ugly zoomer
>>561918538>you live through them, not through lifeFuck that hurtsI've been on the same lowish dose for half a decade. My biggest fear is that I wouldn't have been able to reach where I am now without drugs. I need to quit.
>>561918840Nobody knows what that means blown out nutcase
>>561918709>right after a better one that clearly gives a better responsethat totally wouldn't' happen to be yours now would it?you make up schizo theories because you are jealous of not getting a fucking (You) unbelievable, stick to discord or reddit your brain can't handle anonymous forums
>>561918936i think you may be able to tell that i didn't even try to say it to make it seem that way. i can't speak on where you would be without them and honestly i think you'd still be pretty close or even the same to be honest, i don't think it's that serious as some make it out to be, but plainly logically speaking that's how it works when you're on anything, it's a crutch to avoid interfacing directly with life. not a moral thing just logic
/chess/ zoomers have upped their adde scripts - notice how they are all paranoid and accusatory.
>>561919756heh, the way i look at is that if they are at least playing chess then i don't really care. i think doing meth though for example is crossing the line
>>561919308Yes it's mine, I'm not "jealous" I'm just aware that you felt mogged and are such an insecure weird ass that you made sure to respond exclusively to yourself to say how fascinating your asinine post was. You certainly do make me FEEL like a schizo by how ridiculous you are
>>561920138i think you're blowing things out of proportions, anon. you sound like the only schizo in here
>>561920265Just stop being a weird ass samefag and talking to yourself instead of other anons, why is that so hard?
>>561918485You are Danya speedrunning
>>561918538Adderall is literally meth
>>561920360try to breathe deep, zoomer. you are having a “seethie” right now. “crashing out” so to speak.
>>561920138>FEEL like a schizogee I wonder whyof all the countless schizos in the history of this general you might be the biggest one, that's no small feat
>>561916539Oh yeah. And surely he's an elite fighter now that he's gotten older.
>>561921135lmfao, that's what i was thinking when i read his post too
notice how zoomers in /chess/ have lost any and all confidence in who is who so they just say generalized stuff like “we know that’s YOU” and “only YOU would say that”.
>>561920760>>561920980>>561921347And there's the characteristic melt down, which will go on for the next two hours minimum
>>561917841that's the main question i ask regarding it too, anon. he had everything. set aside the kramnik bullshit, he had other issues upstairs very clearly. i think one of them which makes a bit of sense to me is that he took what people said online extremely seriously both in his stream and on his youtube. i tend to do the same thing mainly in person, i don't give a shit what people say online, but in person i do to a degree and i can see where his mind goes. but i think his went all the way to the very deepest darkest corner of the mind and would never eventually come out of it so to cope with being able to merely function day to day he turned to hard drugs
>>561920760kek you know someone has gone way down the deep end when he gets larpov to be the voice of reason
>>561921531You need to fucking stop.
>>561921861Or, maybe, like the post you ignored because it wasn't yours, posited: guilty conscienceWhen you were pretending to not know anything about the situation and were responding with reverent awe to your own asinine take, you were doing so with the caps reversed btw. You forgot who you're supposed to be
>>561922016could you believe there's only 2 people in this world and when you are not looking they change masks?
>wake up>fabi beat nigaruyeah im thinking a clean sweep for GODbi
>>561922220No until this post I never realized there are more than two people in the world, my failure to consider that is the only reason I think you're a weird samefag. Good riposteBtw your dumb paragraph that clearly you felt highly intelligent typing out is literally just the obvious public reason for him turning to drugs, it's not a take it's literally just the surface story lmao
>>561922336more like tardbi considering last candidates. he will never be godbi no matter how good he becomes. he's a hack
>>561922220What you have to understand is that a significant chunk of /chess/ have swollen up blue balls that get a little twinge every time they say something racist and stupid. They have never played chess OTB.
>>561922414he WILL win the candidates and he WILL flush your smelly poo WC down the toilet brownoid
>>561922397zoomer you're still attacking posts from earlier. you clearly became so rattled that you're perceiving all normal discussion posts through a distorted lens. you're just shit flinging because you're a triggered zoomer that got his shit kicked in
>>561922572What is this post even meant to convey? No wonder you have to reply to yourself to feel better
>>561922693
>>561921861Maybe. He had a big online presence, it wasn't like he was posting anonymously on 4chan. Maybe a floating accusation was too much despite 95% of people being on his side. Or even, as anon posted, it was some subconscious guilt (not about legitimately cheating, guilt for other things) that got activated. Maybe we could say he cared about how he appeared to others a bit much instead of focusing on his thing, whatever that could be?
>>561922693maybe eventually when you're older you'll figure that one out when you realize how fucked up you are and how easily you get triggered online
>>561922397your paranoid delusions simply reminded me of the line at the start of this songhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgE7Y1ONn7g&list=RDHgE7Y1ONn7g&start_radio=1don't think so hard about it god knows your brain has already melted too much
>>561922693lol apparently you are such a dumb fuck zoomer you don’t even realize when you are being mocked by everyone around you!
>>561922950>And now for a songWhat is wrong with boomers
>>561923045you proved his point once more, you're truly on a roll right now, anon. he posted a youtube link and you lost your shit once again because how dare he post a youtube link!
>>561923118Ok boomer
>>561922823would be super interesting to get a pie chart breakdown from the ether somehow of how much of all of these different moving parts pushed him over the edge.
>I.M.O. (in my opinion) he was in a dark place mentally, a deep dark dank disturbing depth of the dreary mind, because of the accusations which were made against him, and it was for this reason that he turned, as I believe, to drug use.>(You) interesting. wow, didn't know that.You really don't need to do this for the rest of thread
>>561923813you are the most sensitive zoomer i have ever encountered on this site. also no surprise you're in this general of all places. you've probably made chess your life which is totally fine but you're probably like 1800 blitz on chess.com or some shit. if you were like 2500 or so then your behavior would actually be more understandable. but you're just an 1800 shitter. go work on your chess little zoomer friend
>>561923813ok sherlock you got me every single post ITT other than yours is mine, good job I'm in awe of your geniusnow you can leave right?why would you keep lurking a a thread with only a batshit insane samafag in it after all?I free you you can leave and never return, you won because you are the smartest and mostly importantly sanest person in the world and everyone knows itmy charade is over and so is /chess/ no need to ever check it out again
time for Americans to dominate the candidate’s tournament as usual. >>561922950reminds me of a classic track adult swim used in a pic-related Tokyo bump. https://youtu.be/ONIiZX9RxJU
Yo Peter are you here?
>>561924765sure if you consider fabiano an american lol
>>561924850sorry but i do not consider zoomer non-rated opinions.

>>561924364Didn't read your latest melty, I'm a little tired rn. Happy for you, or sorry that happened

It's up.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQ_EsZviYis
>>561925248...but you're the only one in this thread ever having a melty?
>>561926015Why are you like this?
>>561925917It's a good meme though
>>561922016>Or, maybe, like the post you ignored because it wasn't yours, positedit's crazy how you think you are replying to a lunatic who talks to himself all day but you are still trying to have a conversation with him and even seek his approval>please oh insane samefag admit my post about danya is brilliant and so am I!you most be fucking starved for any form of human interaction and praise
>>561921531We're at 1 hour 15 minutes so far since this post btw
>>561927935you're projecting. you're the only one (zoomer) in here having a characteristic meltdown. you got triggered because naroditsky was being talked about because he's your zoomer idol and it all went further downhill from there. you zoomers truly are despicable.
so true sis, im going back to /tg/chess, the home of chess discussion worldwide
>>561928314least you agree, later buddy
Can some of you post your chess.com ratings? Just curious to see where some of you are at right now
>>561928196>you got triggered because naroditsky was being talked about he has been at it for 12 hours actuallyall because people called his retarded take on fabi-naka retarded it's almost impressive
>>561929062triggered retarded zoomer. naroditsky is gone. just face the facts of reality. your zoomer idol has perished to his very own demise matter of fact
>>561928703I don't be up in this thread much too often but I really sit around 2400 chesscom blitz on god. On god on my momma on everything. I'm really like that. Some days I dip to 2300 and I go "shit" but lock in hella and do my thang and you know what's up after that. 2400 yet againReal shit the only time I lost in the past three weeks was too titled peeps. I been in chat talkin about "yo" and they aint respond which tilt me not finna lie. But if I lock in they cant hang with me even if they titled. Only titled player I lose to with for real consistencory is "Magnus Carlsen". I don't pay too much of attention to the professional side of the game so I don't really know who that is but he be hella high rated and a tough cookie on god for sure. What I be trying to do against him lowkey is just get my bishops on they diagonals and make him overstep on god. Only reason I lose is sometimes I forget what game I'm playing and he wins. Sometimes I be thinking it's Valorant fr because I'm top .1% at that and spent so much time on it I built up the muscle memory. But I'm tryna really lock in next time I see him and play chess and not ValorantI don't know if I'm the highest rated around here but I'd defininately be happy to prove how I get after it if someone tryna drop a gamelink. Just make sure it be on com because I don't be fucking with poor people sites on god
>>5619292432400 isn't bad. my current goal is 2800 or so. not eyeing 3k just yet but i'd say 2700 - 2800 would satisfy me for a while
>>561929575Shit that's tight any advice you can give me? I only know one opening so far but it's served me well up to 2400 at least
>>561929769i believe you because i only play two openings myself lmfao and have gotten to where i am. all i do is flag, maintain closed positions and then calculate for a clear advantage when the opponent is eventually down on time to twist the plot on them and shift them into even greater pressure and panic
Bring back The Fish copypastas
>>561930264That's some dope fire thanks for that big dog I'm adding it to my notes. I got a chess notebook that I already filled with some little chess raps that I write when I'm really feeling myself in a position, I'm adding your post to it word for word. Thanks again big dog look after yourself
So you think you're clever opening with 1. d4? Yeah, I'm turning on the engine. Let's see how clever you are now. If you want to regurgitate "prep" and play for tricks instead of actually playing chess, have fun playing against the fish. 1. Nf3? Fish. 1. c5? Fish. Playing black and you want to try 1. ...c5?! against me? You guessed it. You get the fish. Let me know when you're ready to play real chess.
>>561930989imagine playing 1d4 zoomer. that's a pure zoomer opening which is what you play
>>561931068Ok boomer

just so you couple retarded zoomers in here know, i don't talk to u2000s so go work on your game. pretty soon i'll be upping that requirement too from 2000. go continue thinking you have it all figured out in chess but meanwhile only being 1400 or whatever you are

>>561938057Tg is the main thread, this one is a containment zone for schizos and Karla simps.

>>561939385It’s about time we go back
>>561940701probably why hes throwing a meltie over here
I should wordfilter zoomer and samefag, 80% of the thread is unreadable. The schizos are out in full force for the Candidates.

We need to be discussing how our guy Jobiano overcame his demons to slay the evil Nigamura to put himself on the path to take down the pajeet chumpion
Yesterday was only so shit because of one paranoid schizo and the anons who keep engaging him for 100s of postsIf we all ignore him he'll get bored of crying about samefagging to the void
>>561965236Yeah, I've noticed this as well, a lot of low IQ bait-rakers in here, probably third worlders too
Is magnus going to vomentate on any of the broadcasts? I really liked the year he retired when he roasted their trash play.
