I recently played in the World Schools Chess Championship this year.I got 4.5 as I was only able to play 5 rounds due to a few major complications that happened 😭
But I am nevertheless grateful for all the support I've received this far from @MeetsKids @LighthouseChess

When Bobby Fischer was 16 he played against Mikhail Tal on June 7th 1959 .Mikhail still won because of obvious reasons but it's still cool that he tried

I am amazed by how many chess players, who play a game that demands careful thought before taking action, will make strong opinionated statements without waiting to confirm all the facts. 😒🤯
