6 times World Chess Solving Champion , double Grandmaster both in otb chess and in chess solving, 2 times Polish Chess Champion and winner of one Titled Tuesday
Guys, I'm so over the moon. This was my first time streaming this tournament on Twitch and had no expectations. But here we are, somehow at the top after many tense games (including ones against Jospem, Caruana and Bok) - will be hard to repeat that . And thx for all congrats! ❤️
🏆 Congratulations to

on winning the early

with 10/11! 👏
Christopher Yoo also finished with the same score but finished second on tiebreaks.
Can't play chess well, so will try to focus on tweeting. What a great decision to give them two zeros. They could play any theoretical line and noone would care. Both this decision and seeing

For the top-tier events, yes.
Once again, dress-code is implemented in nearly every sport. The one which is used here is the softest FIDE ever had - it was devised by Athletes Commission, consisting of active professional players. Ofc details can always be discussed and improved.
It's nice to be in 4th round with minimalistic approach, but it's even a bigger pleasure to watch the fighting spirit of Michal Krasenkow (amazing as always!)

Since many people post here nice and simple twomovers, now it's my turn 🧩 White to play and mate in 2 moves. Can You solve it in 5 minutes?

Finished 2nd in World Chess Solving Championships in Rhodes. It is time to get some break after 4 months of intense chess and to focus on the upcoming ETCC in Slovenia
I think I went a little too aggresive with the world "ban". Hovewer I do believe that chess community realized what that 🤡 has done. Still I won't shake his hand before the chess game in the next 10 yrs (at minimum). For now, pls be aware of what is happening and stay safe!

5th place in European Championship, spot in next World Cup and a return to top 100! Maybe one draw too many but still I'll take what I've got!

There is that part of me that regrets not seeing Magnus as the World Champ in the couple days, but that "second part" says: Holy, the current match is amazing! "Third part": I'm as confused as this game today

Having some relax in Abu Dhabi and preparing for World Rapid & Blitz by solving nice and simple puzzles. Can You find mate in 2 for White in 3 minutes? 🧩♟️✈️

Fabi points out the plan must be to meet 12...h6 with 13.h4!?

Currently in a middle of a wild trip to Fujairah ( World Chess Solving Championship starting tomorrow), then to Jerusalem for World Team Chess Championship. Will hope that training pays off finally. Wish me luck!

Hey. I couldn't sleep. I've had a small depression of missing some chess events. And now I'm returning back from running 4 kms. Life is better, my time will come. Anyway, how is Your Sunday morning?🤭👀
Really good result in

from me. Had many adventures, but I'll take at least Division 3 (maybe 2), since I used to play crap during these types of events. And draw with Wesley So is always nice 😎

1/ I started this series of 🧵s some time ago, to share fresh and challenging ideas that everyone can use in their repertoire.
Many asked me when I will deal with the French Defense.
This time has come!
Another day, another draw... My suggestion for the play-off - instead of playing rapid games, the players should compete in Chess Studies solving competition :D
#CarlsenCaruana
In the shadows of Candidates, this weekend started my series of (probably) 16 games in 16 days. Oh dear. Anyway, 2 draws in French Cup; travelling now to play Serbia Open.
Unofficially 8th place individually and 1st for the team! Danila Pavlov is a monster. And ofc congrats to Piotr Murdzia for 3rd place!

I'm so happy for Ding to win!🥳 Not only he show his incredible fighting abilities, but was constantly trying to get out of the comfort zone (including speaking in English, even if he didn't have to) GG!

After checking
@askavrukh
amazing puzzle, I've had to post this "little big brain" study, which I had to solve while streaming. White to play and win! (HINT: 1st move is "obvious", but finding Black's defense is tricky)
Polanica-Zdroj : place which attracted many top elite chessplayers for many players - It is nice to take this trophy for the 3rd place and extra 9 elo points
"Perfect" organisation. So many players were confused about "visible" pairings for 2nd and 3rd round. Also before the 1st round one local player - saw with my eyes - got allowed to enter the hall without checking. Come on, have respect for players.

ends, it proves, that you don't talk about 2600-2700 professional chess players. They have to train, they mostly avoid public media, they have to play good, but not too good. Tough life. When some streamers are popular by saying anything random
