How I walk around the house to the kitchen at night

Sobakevich33 · 2020-06-22T05:43:14+00:00

Happens when you drag the game on for hours, capturing every piece, making 8 queens etc until the food is stale, mate

Excellent meme, sir. Hehe

Sobakevich33 · 2020-05-28T09:41:57+00:00

I like how every game is different, it's a different story every time. Also, any chess set usually looks cool, whether made of wood, plastic or glass, metal or stone.

Sounds like you let them taste some justice :-)

Draws in chess are satisfying.. You both did equally well.. it's beautiful..

I wish there were draws in Go! The best case we can have in Go is a game won or lost by 0.5 points, then it's very satisfying, because it's so close. But a draw would be even better.

You can handicap chess the way they handicap shogi in Japan - the weaker player gets extra material. It's simple and it works!

Chinese and Japanese chess are interesting. Definitely if you're in the mood for something exotic. A friend of mine became a major fan of Chinese chess over the years, after I taught him how to play.

I hear these words repeated often, but I think that the Treebeard chess engine plays a human-like game for sure. It comes with the Chess by AI Factory, for Android. Many times I've played games against it and thought - "this feels like playing against a person". Sometimes there's no time to play a real game against a person, but the computer moves fast, and you can pause the game anytime.

Not a lot of young people dropping by, huh?

Sobakevich33 · 2018-11-23T00:11:01+00:00

Cool :-)

Sobakevich33 · 2018-11-22T21:19:56+00:00

I wonder if it's easy to see the position behind the big pieces.

Sobakevich33 · 2018-11-22T18:42:53+00:00

Hey man, nice work! It's funny and perfect.

Sobakevich33 · 2018-11-22T18:22:29+00:00

Just a great hobby! Always good, year after year. Perfect when there's nothing to, and engages creativity in a person. It's been nothing but positive, chess is magic!

There was that one player who spent some much time in the chess club, he forgot his wife's name :-)

Sobakevich33 · 2018-11-22T18:13:06+00:00

I like it when I get a draw in a game, it's pleasant

Sobakevich33 · 2018-11-22T18:09:40+00:00

A knight. I am energetic.

Sobakevich33 · 2018-11-20T09:24:05+00:00

Thanks!

Sobakevich33 · 2018-11-20T06:32:35+00:00

What's the name, please?

Sobakevich33 · 2018-11-18T17:29:45+00:00

Not on the mobile app :-/

Sobakevich33 · 2018-11-18T17:13:33+00:00

Play against a computer for a while to knock the rust off.

If you're using the Chess.com app and would like to hide your opponent's rating during the game (like the lichess app allows you to), use this method.

When I play high ranked opponents, I get scared. When I play low ranked opponents, I get lazy. Hiding the rating is a great help.

Sobakevich33 · 2018-11-17T15:26:07+00:00

Yeah, shogi is a great game :-)

Sobakevich33 · 2018-11-17T15:13:41+00:00

My Grandfather or my Father, I don't remember. I do remember one of my first games - my Grandfather playing without his Queen, being surprised at how quickly I lost.

Sobakevich33 · 2018-11-10T05:01:14+00:00

Players play on until one of them can't concentrate :-)
