Happy First Round of #FIDECandidates2026 and #FIDEWomensCandidates2026 day! #ChessSky #ChessPunks
Played in my regional league this evening, and won! I think this was my first competitive game since January and I'm gaining around 15 national rating points from it. Now on to my tournament next weekend! #Chess #ChessSky #ChessPunks
Its the first Queen Sacrifice I think most people learn but it still feels so sweet

Commentary this afternoon was very fun! Unfortunately the player me and chat were rooting for lost, but commentary streams might be my favorite thing to do. Love the community vibe! #Twitch #ChessSky
It’s been many, many years since I played chess. Time for a refresher.

Rxd7 is the logical move and anything else is just silly

I just lost a chess game with a chesscom game rating of 2300. I played well until I didn't, and then it was all over. I played somewhere between 86-88% accuracy vs my opponent at 93% over 40 moves 😅

Two very sweet, cute young Asian boys mischievously rotated the #chess board at #Crossroads 90 degrees, and both Kai & I are triggered 😵💫
Kai: “UGH. The bishop lines are all fucked up and the king’s not on his own color. This is a disaster.”
🤣
We’re both such #OCD pricks #lol

Our 1st game is more detailed, earlier on my timeline, and I played Black and he mated me in, like, 14 moves. I HATE #chess 😑
… but I do play it sometimes, and #BlueSky about it, so if you’re into chess (hint hint: #ChessSky), I suppose you might follow me 😅
I don’t know what’s what. I think this was the boring terrible draw, where we each split a point.
Yawn.
This was one of the brutal checkmates. I must have been white. I played black twice, so yeah, this would be that.
Oof. Looks worse from here, if anything.
Kai & I played 3 games of #chess; 2 he checkmated the shit out of me, & 1 was a boring, terrible draw that felt like a huge waste of both of our time for most of it.
Why do people like & play chess again? 🤔
Oh yeah! I’m doing it for attention & to pick up #nerdy #chessplayer followers 🤓

-chess snob Redditors? Because of a bot game and I have lower elo? That kinda hurt. Just wanted to share the fun bot bug, and make conversation. Not get bullied off the Reddit. Jeez.

Played a pretty good game today! I thought I'd given away a pawn at the start but turns out it's a known position and I came away with a 98% accuracy game. Chesscom gave this a 2150 game rating 🤩🤩🤩

Back to back brilliant moves. I don’t even care about winning anymore. I just want the machine to tell me that my moves are brilliant. #chesssky
Blunder after blunder, yet he keeps going on. 🐭♟️
He thought he was searching for cheese, but ended up in a high-stakes chess match instead. He’s hopemaxxing his way to the top.

Playing my brother. Black to move.
Could folks make a suggestion or two, and explain the rationalization? I know how to develop pieces initially and then have absolutely no idea what to do.
Thanks!

Following on from this year in bluesky, This year on chess.com has seen fluctuations but a positive upswing over the last few months

I'D FUCKIN DO IT AGAIN
#ChessSky
Can’t believe I won this one! Victories at slower time controls hit different— I really had to focus the whole time. #chesssky
Finding this combo felt like sinking two pool balls and the 8-ball #chesssky
Does Stockfish prioritize taking the Queen always? Or is taking the Knight for free somehow a worse move or worse position after capture? I’m confused why the eval bar would worsen after taking the Knight. What is the best move for Black in this position? #Chess #ChessSky #Question
Well that was the most insane endgame I've played in several years of this stoopid board game. #chess #chesssky 👀 www.chess.com/live/game/14...
I am so bad at time management in blitz! It’s so funny when people resign or ragequit in positions like this, because bro, I’m three seconds away from losing. #chesssky
This is the most beautiful checkmate I could ever hope to pull off. I should stop playing chess now for a while. #chesssky
Hypothesis: chess.c*m is teaching players to be more tactical and less positional because of the dopamine hit from seeing brilliant sacrifices in review. #chesssky
At what elo do 9-move checkmates stop happening? #chesssky
