So is all this drama about @GmNaroditsky cheating about him looking at Chessbase in a Speedrun game he was overwhelmingly winning? Players get those points refunded anyway. Am I missing something #chesspunks?
Is this a mistake? From Polgar's mate in two section. There is no mate here, I stared for half an hour before checking an engine lol #chesspunks
I've always been interested in correspondence. Isn't engine use legal? Or is all honor system based?
My coach was giving me an advanced position and told to spend an hour writing down every reasonable variation and sub variation, without moving pieces, as far as i could. It took some practice but definitely helped. I was using the advanced puzzles from the Woodpecker Method.
If you play 1...Nf6 against d4, I really like this rare line against the London from Jonathan Schrantz. I'll link the video below. #chesspunks
Anyone know the most recent or comprehensive resource on Karpov's games? I'm trying to model my repertoire after him. All I can is the book published in the late 90's. #chesspunks
If you love it, you have to let it go lol in all honesty, I just couldn't stomach another exchange French. But it will always be something I play. Similar structures so I can hopefully play both.
Everyone congratulate my c8 bishop on his newfound freedom, I decided to leave the French for @thelittlehat's Caro Kann. Loving it so far! #chesspunks
