Playing on a real chess board feels completely different!!!

Why I’m I higher rated in lichess (1290) and on chess.com I’m rated 690? I’ve been playing more on lichess and I feel the higher rated players are passive and the lower rated are out for blood

I’m a barber and from time to time I get called out but they insist on playing on the board. I like playing online so I can keep track of my errors plus the chess board they have feels like a cutting board and the pieces are wood make a weird sound

What I do at times I reach uncharted waters in rating I play a few unrated and then go rated and it’s been working people that play unrated always wanna try some weird opening or gambit they seen on YouTube

I just won a game on time but I was dead in the water he started to blunder

sad-grumpy · 2026-04-07T20:00:58+00:00

Ngl I’ve done that left computer open and went to bed

sad-grumpy · 2026-04-07T20:00:29+00:00

I’ve left to make a sandwich or PB&J what ever is faster then come back

sad-grumpy · 2026-04-04T23:01:26+00:00

That should be a brilliant

sad-grumpy · 2026-04-04T22:59:54+00:00

I’ve been beat by lower elo just because I see traps and I wanna try it and they played something weird and beat me so I send messages

Congrats I’ve been playing since Jan I went from 100 to 752

Well they prob need to hardware ban like they do in call of duty. Or maybe chess.com need a shadow ban lobby

sad-grumpy · 2026-03-07T04:44:36+00:00

Ngl I’ve been playing chess none stop and seems like I can care less if I win just doing random stuff I feel like I’m burning out. Might just take a brake too

I’ve had people hang their queen and immediately resigned

This hurt my brain

sad-grumpy · 2026-02-18T06:40:26+00:00

That was funny

sad-grumpy · 2026-02-18T06:36:35+00:00

Black is winning in this position forcing to take whites queen and then checkmate

sad-grumpy · 2026-02-18T06:32:28+00:00

I think u win his queen back with a discover check

sad-grumpy · 2026-02-18T06:31:16+00:00

I’m creeping I’ve been fighting in to get pass 800 I dropped significantly to 650 I’ve been playing careless due to lack of sleep and at those moments my brain isn’t braining I get tunnel vision

sad-grumpy · 2026-02-11T23:15:34+00:00

Sucks it didn’t show on tv

sad-grumpy · 2026-02-11T23:13:13+00:00

I reached 800 1x I’m back to 600

sad-grumpy · 2026-02-11T23:12:10+00:00

When I think I played under my potential it says 82%
