View of Barcelona! Thanks to everyone @Chessable office for making it a memorable visit! 🙏

this is not a drill the checkmate patterns manual with video by Christof Sielecki is out now!

The first chess video IM Christof Sielecki uploaded, in 2011, was for his friend. Today, Christof Sielecki is one of the most beloved chess content creators and Chessable authors out there. 💙 Watch him talk about his journey, ft. friend and fellow author, Michael Gorny:

This position could have happened in my otb game today. White to play and win. Not a simple tactic, you need to combine some ideas.

Does anyone habe experience with lost luggage after flights? Mine got lost and the airline is unable to use my provided location information based on tracking my ipad in the lost suitcase. Now they offer compensation, but refuse to reimburse the ipad at all. Any thoughts?

Mein Repertoire für Einsteiger liegt jetzt auch auf Deutsch vor!

Hm, ob ich auf Spotify hören sollte?!

White to play and win material!

This clearly shows how amazingly incompetent International Chess Federation is.

I am updating my Desktop to Windows 11; it is currently downloading. It took a while, as my PC didn't meet the 'requirements'. To fix the issue, I had to enter stuff in the command line!! In 2024! How is Microsoft a trillion-dollar company?!

Position from my league game yesterday. I played 42.c5 here, which looks normal (at least to me…). Turns out that after 42…a5 I have no win and thus my move was a grave error. 43.c6 Ke8 and my pawns are stuck. The way to win is 42.Rxh7 Rxc4 42.Rg7, winning the g-pawn.

I just started my Comp and Chessbase. It has !forgotten" every single setting. Board is on default, etc etc. Is there an ini file or something that I can recover somewhere to get my settings back?

Here we go!

Is there any recent info on the seconds/teams in the Ding-Gukesh match?
