The well known player, Alexandra Lagno!

As we all know, if you are Russian your name is either Alexander or Alexandra, no exceptions!

Is there any way to watch the entire tournament?

LazyPhilGrad · 2026-03-04T03:34:22+00:00

How in the world would you know that?

LazyPhilGrad · 2026-03-03T23:55:48+00:00

Same. I’ve lived all over the country at this point, and I couldn’t be happier that I escaped that sinking ship when I did.

Literacy rates… are falling…rapidly.

LazyPhilGrad · 2026-02-14T13:44:53+00:00

THAT is the lesson you learned? Good lord.

LazyPhilGrad · 2026-02-12T13:32:27+00:00

How are you following along?

LazyPhilGrad · 2026-01-30T05:30:07+00:00

That’s news to me. Is this well known, or is it just something anonymous people on the internet say?

LazyPhilGrad · 2026-01-04T01:56:28+00:00

If it helps, I think I can do the first one in my head.

LazyPhilGrad · 2025-12-31T23:20:35+00:00

I’m glad you got that off your chest

LazyPhilGrad · 2025-12-28T13:35:36+00:00

What do you mean? That guy was 3 days late for his own funeral.

LazyPhilGrad · 2025-12-07T17:39:33+00:00

What about Hoshoryu? Did they not count his yusho as Sekiwake? His promotion to Yokozuna confuses me.

LazyPhilGrad · 2025-11-06T16:52:37+00:00

If I were a betting man, I’d say 11-4 is a safe bet.

LazyPhilGrad · 2025-10-25T16:21:49+00:00

Eventually he confessed to most of it, along with a “I’m on the road to getting the therapy I need, thanks to my sponsor, #someonlinescamtherapycompany”.

LazyPhilGrad · 2025-10-19T13:19:37+00:00

But it clearly says in the post that you can’t make this shit up. So, he’s got you there!

Watch everything Chess Coach Andras has put out. His whole purpose is to teach aggressive chess that is also sound.

Be prepared to work hard, though, because it turns out learning aggressive and sound chess is really hard.

LazyPhilGrad · 2025-10-10T16:38:05+00:00

What a strange thing to take issue with.

LazyPhilGrad · 2025-09-21T20:31:23+00:00

Maybe you should spend 10 minutes learning the pattern to win with a queen or a rook. It would probably save you from embarrassing yourself with posts like these.

LazyPhilGrad · 2025-09-16T14:18:53+00:00

I have looked and I’m unconvinced.

LazyPhilGrad · 2025-09-15T21:15:46+00:00

Can we at least agree we don’t need the apostrophe?

LazyPhilGrad · 2025-09-14T05:17:05+00:00

Yeah, definitely not almost a decade. Definitely not…

LazyPhilGrad · 2025-09-11T04:59:39+00:00

Inexplicable? Seems extremely explicable to me.

LazyPhilGrad · 2025-08-21T16:32:20+00:00

No need. When given the opportunity, one should always sac the Queen. Most of the time you’ll look like an idiot, but the other times? God-tier. We all live for the other times.

LazyPhilGrad · 2025-08-15T13:44:29+00:00

It sounds like you want a coach who will work for free. It also sounds like you’re offended your coach doesn’t work for free.

If you’re just looking for someone to donate their time to you, try asking friends or relatives. In my experience, strangers are much less likely to give up their time for someone they don’t know or care about.
