There you go! Pretty tough one isn't it?

Not the move!

Try it!

It's white to play. I don't have a PGN

It's a puzzle

The key idea to find the correct threat was to ask "what if I had two moves?"

Just so! I found it a really tough one, I spent the whole hour😅

Bullet is a new one, but it makes sense. Turbo ultra pattern onslaught

I'm a Chessable pro until 2029 and am heavily invested in the platform. I hesitated to recommend the platform to new players before, now I definitely won't. The value proposition is not there unless you intend to shell out big. Chessly, or just YouTube, is the obvious choice for 98% of players now.

It's a solid lesson in how corporate arrogance and subjection to the logic of capital growth go hand in hand.

They paywalled all previously free content between a subscription, and made all discounts worse to non-subscribing users while essentially no better for subscribing users.

Chessable pricing was already extreme enough to warrant a 2% conversion from S&S to the full course. Now they expect you to pay to even use the platform at all. They couldn't make a better case for scrapping Chessable for Chessly for the other 98% if they tried.

All of them

I'd rather see more rapid and blitz where I have more familiarity but prep matters a bit less, than a new position I don't understand every single time.

I think if you buy and use video on chessable, chessly is worth checking out

Obviously, if you throw all your online games, you're not going to want to use it as your main performance indicator. Most adult improvers of the kind that care about their online ratings don't, though. Whether you throw or don't, however, it's certainly indicative of your online performance.
