Still waiting for my prize, about 2000 dollars, from the Moroccan chess federation. Let’s hope International Chess Federation will start doing something about it. en.chessbase.com/post/never-end…

Not sure I have seen this many passed pawns before!

Grateful to the organizers of Tata Steel Chess Tournament to be given the chance to compete on the biggest stage!

Dutch GM Max Warmerdam is set to make his debut in the 2024 #TataSteelChess Masters! Having earned his spot in the Challengers by winning the top amateur group in 2019, Warmerdam has performed in the Challengers four times. We are eager to see what he'll bring in the Masters.

A friend suggested me to do FarmChamps in style and invite people with the last name The Farmer. P.S. No it wasn't Farmerdam, it was Van Foreest who suggested it.

Erwin is a fighter on and off the board. He is an inspiriation and it is incredible to see him do so well again. Looking forward to many more walks in Wijk aan Zee with him!

Seems like Hikaru mixed up my Chessable course! The pawn should be sacrificed with the rook on c1, but a win is a win!

Elated to have won the Teplice Open after an exciting last round. Received a nice Czech as well✌️

Dutch champion!

Stumbled upon a new conspiracy theory🧐

It took a while, but it looks like I'm not going to be the last person who lost a classical game to World Champion Ding Liren

A top Beijing official told the FT that the best option for foreign companies would be to partner with local groups. on.ft.com/3OowQJo

I tuned out about an hour ago. Really looking forward to the tiebreaks of the World Championship tomorrow!

So you pay $80,000 each to two absolute elite chess professionals to fight for a World Championship title by playing two days of blitz chess after a restday, and when they say we are tired FIDE just goes Sure! ????

Don’t we all know the feeling? It also happened to Max Warmerdam in his game against Fabiano Caruana . But he did win against the highest-rated opponent he has ever beaten. newinchess.com/new-in-chess-2…

Thrilled to have successfully defended my thesis this morning and officially complete my BSc in Economics. First, some well-earned vacation before kicking off my professional chess year(s) at the Dole Open starting Saturday!
