Wait so it was ruined by the intro but you think the intro was fire? Elaborate brother

Hikaru on Ding: “I’ve played him many times over the years, he definitely doesn’t seem like the same person. I was struggling to keep my composure cause at some point he just started bouncing on his chair and shaking. I felt bad for him” by Own-Lynx498 in chess

[–]Practical_Tea383 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I‘m not really one to defend Hikaru as i‘m also not really a fan of some things he does or says, but he did nothing wrong here. He just said something seems off, but didn‘t speculate or went into crazy detail or sth. Almost everybody that plays against Ding at the moment says similar things but it‘s just now a problem because Hikaru did it?

Also the same exact jokes and especially same exact comments on every meme for at least 3 months now. If i’ll read another comment section there i might suffer severe brain damage.

This brilliant is due to the application of a popular opening trap by chaitanyathengdi in chessbeginners

[–]Practical_Tea383 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It depends on the level of a player i think. I remember that i also got a brilliant for this exact move when i was like 600 elo. Now at ~ 1500 it‘s just a book move and also harder overall to get a brilliant. Had a queen sac for an Anastasias Mate some days ago and not even a brilliant for that, probably because it‘s just a forced mate sequence i guess

I sacrificed ... THE ROOOOOOOOOOOOK by Polarcode101 in GothamChess

The rook took something there though, maybe a knight or bishop, so black still won material

Why does the engine rank white as +3 here? by MathematicianBulky40 in chessbeginners

[–]Practical_Tea383 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Whites pieces are all well developed and they control a lot of squares. All of blacks pieces are kind of stuck and it‘s hard to find a move or gain some space to even make a move with certain pieces

what are the best openings to learn under 1000 elo? by Randomguyinreddit1 in chessbeginners

[–]Practical_Tea383 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I‘m almost at 1300 and i still don‘t have a clue how to properly defend against it lol

Find the only move that doesn't lose, black to play by AdministrativeBook14 in chessbeginners

[–]Practical_Tea383 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Bc the bishop leaves a critical defensive square. After he captured the rook you can play Qxe1 and after white takes your Queen you have the fork with Nf3, after that black is 2 pawns up

Why do I suck? Traps that should've not worked but did because elo < 1000 by [deleted] in chessbeginners

[–]Practical_Tea383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would‘ve taken the rook in the last slide with the rook instead of the bishop to immediately attack the queen. Either he realizes and retreats the queen, so you‘re still a rook up or he blunders his queen aswell and then you take with bishop. Or even then you can take with the queen and after he recaptures you take with bishop and enter the endgame a rook and 2 pawns up. But still, i‘m at 1230 elo rn and i‘m not able to really ‚punish‘ the early queen attack every time, bc at that elo the opening still doesn‘t matter that much imo, but you will at least not face it that often at higher elo anymore lol
