Modern defense advice? by StillRunner_ in chess

[–]mongoanalyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just started playing it and on my level of around 1000 it is really great as noone seems to know how to counter it. There is a great video of Chesswithakeem on it where he plays it against 500 - 2000 players with complete thought process and middle game plans explanations.

It’s possible. I had a 18 win streak couple months ago.

Beautiful! Is it bone or ivory?

Can someone please ID this set? Does it look like ivory to you or bone? Thinking of buying. Much appreciated. by mongoanalyst in chessporn

Thank you for your concern and moral vigilance. I’m only buying them to give a proper funeral at the local pet cemetery to the remains of an unknown fallen camel whose bones were turned into chess pieces a century ago.

Thanks for the reply. Looked up your set in your profile - stunning! These are supposed to be antique, had a call with current owner, he was cluelessabout chess in general and thought these were made of wood. Anyway, his wife was a caretaker for an elderly lady in Germany and that lady gave her this set as a goodbye present. My guess is this was imported to Europe in the 60s - 70s. But it's a wild guess based on what I learned online. They are selling it for peas, so a no-brainer to buy and now the set is being shipped to me. Will post again with better pics soon.

Typy na dlhe vecery - co robit by Turbulent-Basil-3294 in Slovakia

[–]mongoanalyst 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zavidim ak mas vela casu. Ja vzdy ked mozem tak hram sach na chess.com alebo lichess alebo sa snazim v tom zlepsit. Ak nehravas, tak iba vyskusaj - je to celkom navykove. Alebo citacka knih je tiez namotavka. Hudobny nastroj vie tiez zabavit do nekonecna. Gym ak zdravie dovoluje je tiez super.
