  1. Online chess league game went well, making up for last night a little (except otb actually counts while online doesn't) #chess #chesspunks

  2. from a game a couple years ago, one move retains an advantage (I didn't see it) #chess #chesspunks

  3. Frage an die Experten: in dieser Stellung war ich mit Schwarz am Zug. Die Engine empfiehlt, auf d1 zu schlagen, und - hier die Pointe - in einen Turm umzuwandeln (siehe Variante oben rechts).
    Ich frage mich: warum nicht in eine Dame?
    1. Weil es egal ist, da Weiß sowieso sofort zurückschlagen muß?
    2. Weil man dadurch nach der weißen Antwort nur einen Turm, und nicht eine Dame auf d1 verliert, und das für den Computer rechnerisch besser ist?
    3. Um Weiß den Fehler schmackhaft zu machen, auf e7 zu nehmen?
    4. Anderer Grund?
    Ich freue mich auf sachdienliche Hinweise aus der Community.

  6. I discovered a passion for chess a few months ago…

    So, I ended up developing a chess variant. 😅

    It’s called Split Chess, and you can manage multiple boards at once.

    It’s still in development, but you can play it here: splitchess.com/

    RT appreciated! Feedback welcomed!

  7. Hey #chesspunks and other #chess fans! ♟️

    I recently played quite a few chess-inspired games (both for fun and research purposes... 👀).

    I've compiled them into this list:

  8. In den USA tobt eine Debatte, ob Fantasy Sports in Wahrheit nicht nur ein Versuch sind, bislang illegale Sportwetten durch die Hintertür zu legalisieren. Das Geld der Wettlobby scheint sich durchzusetzen. Andererseits formiert sich Widerstand. #Chess #chesspunks

  9. Wish all #chesspunks & all friends & family a Happy Thanksgiving. Enjoy & be kind! Finished the last game in Electronic Knights Finals. And WOW, what a journey over the past 3 years!

  14. In eigener Sache: mich gibt es jetzt auch auf BlueSky. Die Zersplitterung der #Schach-Szene auf mehrere #Twitter-Nachfolger ist bedauerlich. Ich hoffe, es wird sich irgendwann ein klarer Nachfolger durchsetzen.
    Auf Twitter merke ich ganz klar, das Qualität und Quantität der Kontakte nachlässt. #chess #chesspunks

  15. @gmmds you might consider to bridge your account to Bluesky (with Bridgy Fed). A lot of #chesspunks left finally Twitter and joined BlueSky

  16. This is an older blog from the end of last year, but I was recently asked about playing online, tutoring, or even sharing virtual club rooms. So, I dug this out from my blog page and thought it was good timing to share it here again. #chess #chesspunks #schach chess.myvortexcloud.com/the-playches...

  18. Two blogs in a week? Why not if something is coming up? What was it? The ChessBase 18 release triggered me to write quickly down my first impressions - and - sorry to say - frustrations.

    I believe they missed an opportunity on Compute Cluster integration due to their lack of understanding of cloud architecture or tried to keep ChessBase a closed shop.

  31. Congrarulations to Chinese Grand Master Ding on becoming World Chess Champion.

    I've seen a few people saying he only won because the previous champion, Magnus Carlsen, declined to play. I say, you got to be in it to win it!

    I've seen a few people saying that the quality of the match wasn't as great as with Magnus involved. Well, even Magnus said this match was a different dynamic to his matches, where players tried to close positions down rather than take risks to keep the position alive.

    I can't understand why people who are nowhere near as good as Ding are taking shots at him less than a day after he scores the biggest win of his life. He's World Champion, he played better overall chess than his opponent during the match which was a spectacular delight for the fans.

    Great work Ding, and congratulations on becoming the 17th World Chess Champion!
