Hello everyone, I am a streamer and (sometimes) post on YouTube! I play a variety of games, but I focus on chess more than anything!

4/4 and a trophy later, I'm quite happy with my performance. Hung a piece (while being up 2 pieces) in game 2, so there's that. Crushed the other rounds. :D

I love this about chess. You learn a new opening, go to practice against actual players online, and over the course of a day, no one plays it at all lmao. I just wanna play an Italian and just get used to the structures badly

Genuinely the most boring time of the year to play tournaments. None that happen near me or the ones that are close by are on weekdays when I work

I kinda forgot to talk about the last tournament of the year. Perfect score of 4/4! Going into next year with a new peak rating. I already have a team event and Congress scheduled, we'll see how that goes

Next week is the last tournament of the year, hoping it goes well. Already looking at a tournament in Chicago next year.

Going 3.5/5 in a tournament and still losing rating is insane lmao

Nearly been a week since my last tournament, but since there was someone who has Member ID issues, still no rating update :/

So happy YouTube is tackling very very important things, like ad blockers, while allowing literal porn ads on YouTube kids.

This Saturday should be an interesting tournament. 3rd seed, out of 16 people. Hopefully I can play much much better than my last one where I went 2.5/4, but I felt like I didn't deserve 1 of those wins.

Why is my online chess so much better than my OTB? Is because I just go "fuck it, we ball" so much more online and it works or something? I'm not understanding myself again

I hope I'm not the only one who has done this before.
You're playing in a 90+30 game, your opponent puts you in check. While in check, you forget that you are, calculate for around 10 minutes only to realise you're in check again and redo everything

Love how you can be 1st for points, on the first line, but if your team signs someone who has a higher overall than you, down to minors you go. NHL 14 is crazy sometimes

True question for those who play online chess. Do you have the piece notation be a figure or a letter?

Why does it feel like these are the headlights when I'm driving at night? Please tell me I'm not alone in this.

@chess.com is it just me, or is the night the best time to do puzzles?

Ready for the World Championship Cycle to begin! I still have hope Ding can win. But, I see why people think Gukesh can win it.

2025 is so close. It just feels like last month was June. Am I missing something?
