I am very proud to be working on a big project like ChessMonitor. The intent and purpose is to provide actual value to actual chess players.

The only website (and app!) you will ever need for prep.

We are just getting started.

Alireza Firouzja sacrifices his queen to take a 2-0 lead against Arjun Erigaisi! If the queen is taken, the knight regains the queen with a fork on e4.

We got used to it now, but the fact that you would have the latest games of the players available, let alone on mobile, was unthinkable just a year ago.

Database that updates in real time.
And so much more is coming.

Download the ChessMonitor app, if you are a chess player.

I will not be running for the FIDE presidency this electoral cycle.

@MRobles1996 Well, not that it is my business, but this year Hans was invited to Wijk aan Zee, GCT Warsaw, UzChess Cup, Chennai GMs and Olympiad team of USA.
As for Carlsens "untouchability", he lost a bunch in Norway and Hong Kong and didn't win those events.

Not my fight. Just odd.🤷🏼‍♂️😅

[Anish Giri @anishgiri]

Hey, chessmafia, what was that?🤣🍿🤦🏻‍♂️

Maybe Hikaru was onto something, with all the inflation talk?

[Vidit Gujrathi @viditchess]

@anishgiri I hope you’ve made a decision by now.

[Anish Giri @anishgiri]

@DPruess @Apple Good one. Maybe easier to find an apple store that will repair https://t.co/g4E0mob29P?

[Anish Giri @anishgiri]

Want to get an extra laptop.

I think I should get MacBook air, but Vidit insisted it should be MacBook pro.

What do you think?

[Anish Giri @anishgiri]

This could be an interesting deal.

[Yahya Abdulkadir @yaxyacy]

@anishgiri Whatever you decide to get, get the same for me and I will tweet about Chessmonitor everyday for a year.

[Anish Giri @anishgiri]

@Ra1kshit So, you mean I should get pro?

[Anish Giri @anishgiri]

A fan reminded me of this incident today.

I will never understand how the copy got 10x more views than the original.🤣😭

[Anish Giri @anishgiri]

Normal position.
