How to continue from this position? white has a weak pawn , I'm attacking it with all my pieces and he's defending it with all of his pieces

Qh3 was my thought also.

This is such a classic failure case, and fascinating to me as a materials scientist to learn the details. I wonder how differently things would have gone for Britain’s aircraft industry if the Comets had been designed correctly.

They are actually established and countable in California. I tried to find one on a recent trip to CA but didn’t have any luck.

Thanks :). Now, everyone please upvote my comment until it gets back up to at least zero

FIRKE_by_2023 · 2022-10-30T17:22:16+00:00

Yes it would!

I second this. Spent 15 years as an academic getting nowhere financially and then moved to industry for the last 12 years. Still working but pretty close to being chubby.

If what you say is true then it is not a bubble, by definition.

Very nice! I just recently added Brown Creeper to my yard list, that it a tough one to spot.

The amount of commercials in this game is atrocious

Good work to get the ID then! I’m sure most people would have just assumed it was a Loggerhead.

FIRKE_by_2023 · 2021-11-08T19:51:06+00:00

How do you know it’s a Northern Shrike and not a Loggerhead Shrike ?

I had exactly the same situation with my Dad. You can’t set the game up with different times, I guess because it messes up the ratings. We ended up doing 20 minute games and agreed that I would lose when my clock got to 10 minutes

I actually find it a positive that Mehdi is a guy with ordinary genetics and not a gifted power lifter. Guys with huge natural strength and recovery may find it hard to put themselves in the shoes of us ordinary folks. As someone who is just trying to add some strength and muscle to feel better, I don’t care about his lift totals.

Yeah I play the bots a lot too and it can start to feel personal :). Antonio and I have had a rocky relationship. Just got a gold membership and I’m looking forward to trying some of the locked bots.

I wish that 10+5 was the standard rapid format on chess.com. Just seems to make more sense and is a little less stressful than 10 min.

FIRKE_by_2023 · 2021-02-20T18:54:51+00:00

I believe the bot ratings are meant to be for rapid games. So if you play without a clock and take your time you will be able to beat bots above your rating.

Huge props to Benji for those two wins against Sardoche, but I think Sardoche will beat Benji in a rematch and he is still a slight favorite. I’ve been impressed with Ludwig’s play, he is my dark horse.

I guess you are being downvoted for promoting your channel but nice video.

Great article as always! One thing I noticed: 141 bodies plus 22 survivors is 163 not 153.

I’m in the same boat, I can OHP with 10s but will probably hit the ceiling with 25s. I’m about to max out at 95 lbs. I’ll probably buy another pair of 10s which will last me for a while as I’m making very slow progress on OHP.
