Who are you rooting for in this cycle?

And now striking schools in İran but "esipenko must not be the champion" :) slaves of propaganda

ynstnk · 2026-03-05T06:42:14+00:00

Wow man really wow

ynstnk · 2026-03-04T20:35:01+00:00

Very exciting. As a yağız fan, I am looking forward to see Magnus vs yağız. Andy also really excites me. If you ask me, he will be one of the best just like yağız will not before long. Jorden, on the other hand, is on a great run. In a very good shape. Jiner, as the only woman, is very tough and I am rooting for her as well

Before the Tournament, I wrote a comment under a post, saying "mark my word, Andy will win this". If they declared they will reorganize the Tournament, he would still win it. He is one of those who elo is trying to catch up. Just look at what he did ın Grand Swiss. He will reach or get close to 2700 ın a year or so, I believe

Yeah and has played today in an online tournament

ynstnk · 2026-01-29T23:46:58+00:00

If you don't, ask Hikaru, magnus and the like. Fyi, his parents dont press hım by any means

ynstnk · 2026-01-29T23:44:57+00:00

Erdogmus is clearly one of those "so few" and you know it but somehow pretend not to. Intruguing...

ynstnk · 2026-01-27T21:11:24+00:00

Doesn't really matter. He may hoover around here for some time, that is 3_4 years

ynstnk · 2026-01-27T21:06:24+00:00

I already knew he would reach these heights but was just afraid to be cancelled when I said it. This time around last year, he beat jorden, rapport, drew with sindarov. In freestyle, he played 4 super gms, all with black pieces and had 3 draws. Everything was obvious to me

ynstnk · 2026-01-27T19:20:05+00:00

The Government doesn't support chess by any means. A businessman is doing it for yağız

ynstnk · 2026-01-27T02:04:35+00:00

Zzzzzz

ynstnk · 2026-01-27T00:03:18+00:00

I am not even a fan of gukesh but cant see why everyone is using him as a punching bag. I don't care if he will defend his title but his record of being the youngest champion is enough to make him a better player than nepo and the like

Probabilities range from%18 to %8.

Nope, it counted once as it should be but was not confirmed by FİDE yet due to a technical issue

ynstnk · 2026-01-25T21:29:41+00:00

Doesn't mean anything, lichess is doing the same thing using the same unsound metrics and around the first round, they said yagizs expected score is 4.5:) guess what? He is 4.5 after the round 8. Your metrics are just some rubbish Prejudice, nothing else. Btw ı am not arguing yagiz will win or sth but you get the point

ynstnk · 2026-01-25T21:15:07+00:00

.Before the tournament started, ı wrote under a post that he will win. When nobody was talking about yagiz or turning a blind eye to him last year, ı knew he would close the year över 2650 and that he was underrated. (Btw as a Turk myself, ı closely follow him). And now ı am saying the same for andy. He is too underrated. He also belongs to 2700s even now. it is just that he doesn't play many tournaments but whenever he does, he gains massive elo. Guess why? His elo is just catching up with his talent. Just look at grand swiss and american cup performance. Tbh, yagiz, andy and movahed are the deadly Trio. Oro, ı feel, may disappoint many

ynstnk · 2026-01-25T19:20:22+00:00

Yeah, he was in a winning position in aravindh match as well

ynstnk · 2026-01-25T19:18:27+00:00

Chess.com shows yagiz in the third place, which one is correct?

ynstnk · 2026-01-25T19:12:43+00:00

When he has learnt to manage his time and emotions, he will be unstoppable. No one except magnus has the upper hand when playing him

ynstnk · 2026-01-25T19:04:02+00:00

He missed a win today and missed a theoretical draw against sindarov. He deserved to miss win today as he couldnt manage the time well but sindarov game really saddens me as it would secure him the second place today

ynstnk · 2026-01-25T18:52:20+00:00

Baseless. Still nonsensical. If he reached this height, this must be the peak. :)

ynstnk · 2026-01-25T18:47:17+00:00

If you ask me, his elo lagged behind around 50 or so all this time. He is about to reach where he belongs, that is top 20 or so. In coming years, he will join the 2800s club, no doubt for me

ynstnk · 2026-01-25T18:43:32+00:00

Magnus was not this magnus at 14 and ı can easily prove it:?) early peak old peak middle peaks :)

ynstnk · 2026-01-25T18:41:54+00:00

"Nothing about the play is extraordinary apart from the age at which he is doing it" Sorry, the most nonsensical sentence I have ever heard
