Hey Champs! Just a quick heads-up — I’ll be traveling this weekend, so there will be no Intermediate class or Sunday Tournament. Let’s kick off August strong! It’s the best month of the year — after all, legends like Kobe Bryant (and yours truly 😎) were born in August. Enjoy your weekend, stay sharp, and I’ll see you all soon. Cheers!

https://www.chess.com/game/computer/350163420 Martin is still stupid after being 1000 elo I went too easy on him I had 4 misses I deliberately played like a 500 elo still he lost by 30 points of material and checkmate obviously

It was really easy to follow what he was saying even as someone much lower elo, and he used analogies to make even simpler. Some key takeaways I got from the call: Most important -Review ur games -Spam practice 20-30 minutes of puzzles daily Less important -Don't tilt and queue right away after getting destroyed -Use chess.com lessons All around he was a very nice dude and if you haven't booked a call with him yet you should

Happy Sunday, Champs! 😎 Heading into Day 2 of my over-the-board tournament with a perfect score so far — 100%! 💯 Here are some aesthetic finishes from Rounds 2 & 3 yesterday — see if you can find the killer blows. ⚔️♟️ White to play in the first one and Mate Black to play in the second one and win/mate.
