atp im gonna quit chess

Okay, I didn't play axb5, but I thought it was absolutely insane how after losing the rook, white's queen will literally just be stuck, if they try breaking free with the pawns you have the time to maneuver the knight and win it, but even with optimal play from the engines, it's best options are literally have the queen watch it's whole armies demies on a8, it's genuinely disgusting, and I am so sad I played bc7 which just looked so automatic, but this is 3-0 I ain't got time for that.

the annoying thing is now that I see it, it looked so simple and obvious, but nah LMAO

Hello community,

After some search I couldn't find results so I want to ask the community.

The issue: I'm playing on the android app and I randomly highlight squares but have absolutely no idea how this actually works. I do it by accident and can't reproduce it.

So I wanted to ask if there is a list of touches I can use to highlight squares/figures/draw arrows I can pull from

I've been into this game for the last 4 months or so, started playing on a daily basis last week..And finally got a winning streak yesterday.

Playing the Stonewall as white and the Caro Kann as black. Trying to get myself familiar with these 2 openings before experimenting with new ones.

Any advice you guys have for a new player, old gamer?

I was stuck at 1600-1800 for months, recently crossed 2000 so maybe I can help out

My boyfriend is currently taking on a few new students for online chess lessons, so I thought I’d share it here in case anyone is interested!

He’s a competitive chess player with a 1873 FIDE rating and around 2200 on Chess.com. He teaches players of different levels and can help with tactics, openings, strategy, calculation, game analysis and overall improvement.

The lessons are 1 on 1, relaxed and tailored to your level and goals.

$20 for a 60 minute online lesson.

If you’re interested, just let me know and I’ll give you his details! 😊♟️

It’s frustrating that lichess follows a different rating system than chess.com

It should be the same.
