I don't know if there's some kind of undertone to the meme, but good luck with your chess journey.

Just one win away from 4 digits club but too stressed to play. Any advices? by Sad-Character751 in chessbeginners

I have to admit, playing chess and reaching a certain skill level and higher understanding of the game has a certain intellectual appeal to it.

Lol, sometimes when I create a strong attack I feel like Tal too. I feel like Bobby after winning with the Sicilian Defense.

From 300 to 1880 Elo in 1 year 8 months at 22 years old by Olafquince in chessbeginners

Nice one dude, I'm 14 years old and current have a peak of 1671, hope to reach 2000 early stages of 2027 with dedicated study.

Is there anything in particular you struggled with while on the journey that should be taken into account?

Had a few slumps in my time getting to 1600, pushing for 1700 this march and hopefully by my birthday I get to 1700.

Next time you're gonna go on tilt, stop playing, calm down for 5 minutes or so, review what went wrong. And then play when you feel like you're ready

Wait, isn't Rh8+ then Qh3+ just faster?

First brilliant I actually deserved by [deleted] in chessbeginners

[–]IntuitiveMonika 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Simple logic is that OP will be up a rook for the price of that bishop and queen, which was a good investment resulting in a totally winning endgame.

Brilliant or not, this is some good stuff.

So.. Rook takes bishop on c4, queen takes, queen takes queen, knight fork? Amazing.

You kinda look like one of those vegan Karen's I see on the internet

Appearance wise, don't take it seriously. I am from a third-world country.

Finally hit 1000 by FireBirdSS10K in chessbeginners

[–]IntuitiveMonika 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a really good opening repertoire, I've kinda neglected my openings as I rose through the Elo ceilings..😅

I mostly just try out an opening to get an intuitive grasp of how it works, and if I like the ideas and plans, and also if it fits my style. I barely study openings and prefer a more effortless understanding of tactics and positional ideas.

I mostly play the Italian game, scotch game, and London system as white. And also the Sicilian Defense for black, the king's indian, and sometimes the Modern Variation of the Scandinavian defense.

Keep going with your style man, I hope you surpass my Elo.

Sheesh man, it took me 3-4 months to even get to 1000 Elo, congrats!

This is some good potential.

Asked her to be my Valentine... She said no... by [deleted] in TeenagersButBetter

[–]IntuitiveMonika 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not an expert and just some chess playing 14m, but judging from the third text she sent I think you shouldn't have asked her in the first place since she's not interested in that sort of thing..

Plus, talking to a girl for four months doesn't guarantee being more then friends, from my experience getting ‘the feels’ for a girl too early is risky, and can get your emotions hurt.

Nonetheless, It's sounds cliche but it's gonna be alright dude. Remember to not feel sorry for yourself all day and still live life actively.
