Queen/Rook fork: ✅
Discovered attack on Queen: ✅
Blundering mate in 2: ✅

I'm not good enough to spot mate sequences more than a couple of moves in advance, but I was specifically looking for this knight sacrifice.

I am playing Chess exclusively for fun (no studying at all unless you count watching some @GothamChess content), but it still feels good to reach a new peak ELO on https://t.co/Ol75wpSM3z.

927. Still bad, but slightly less bad.

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

Still chipping away at 5.8b XP in @RuneScape, only 800m left!

However, if I somehow manage to get an invite to the @EQ_Legends closed beta starting on the 24th, this grind will be getting back burnered in a hurry.

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

I learned to play Chess when I was a kid, but hadn't played in decades until the algorithm started feeding me @GothamChess content, so I picked it up again.

I'm not good, ~900 elo in Rapid, but getting a brilliant from the evaluator is an insane dopamine hit.

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

Closing in on 5.8b in @RuneScape, but it doesn't get easier from here.

Hunter at 200m, 16/29. Lot of slow skills left. End of May unfortunately not looking realistic.

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

These 2 achievements were absolutely obnoxious. I'd rather deal with breeding logs or Ports for months than do this again.

Golden and POH statue achievements in @RuneScape complete. Now I can get back to proper skilling.

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

My 4th 200m skill in @RuneScape for March, Crafting.

15/29

Unfortunately nothing else too close, so might be a bit before the next one. Best get to it!

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

Let's go, another 200m skill in @RuneScape.

Divination, my 14th out of 29. Almost half way there!

Not sure which will be next, probably Hunter, but maybe Crafting, Dungeoneering or Woodcutting. We'll see!

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

It always feels good getting skills to 200m in @RuneScape.

Today: Construction, my 13th skill out of 29 to reach 200m. 16 to go.

Divination will be next.

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

Another one that I'm glad is finished. My 12th skill in @RuneScape to reach 200m: Farming. 17 remain.

I should get 200m Construction and Divination this month, maybe Hunter as well if I have enough play time.

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

@fruition9249 @RuneScape Thank you! I'm close on a few others, Farming (8.5m away), Crafting (11.6m), Agility (15.5m), Dungeoneering (19.7m) and Construction (23m).

Farming will probably be the next 200m, early in March.

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

Glad this one is over with.

My 11th @RuneScape skill to reach 200 million XP, Fletching. 18 more to go.

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

Update on my @ClubWPTGold network issues...unfortunately, does seem like it's my PC. I think it doesn't like the interaction between client and location services, but I'm not techie enough to fix it.

I'll play on my phone, which works perfectly.

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

I can't be the only one having massive network connectivity problems on @ClubWPTGold, to the point that I'm getting timed/folded out of hands multiple times per hour, can I?

Surely this is not a me problem?

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

@ClubWPTGold Punt, Diarrhea, Suckouts.

Are we cooked, chat?

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

Unfortunately, I've been sick for most of January (REALLY sick the last 5 days), but not being able to leave the house gives me the time to grind some @RuneScape.

Firemaking is my 10th out of 29 skills to reach 200m.

Get your flu and COVID boosters, being sick sucks!

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

I'm back into poker after my hiatus, but I won't be playing live again until Thursday.

I've compiled my stats for 2025, my first full year of poker. Not as good as I'd hoped, but my game is a LOT better than it was a year ago.

Hoping for a good 2026!

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

@StonkMessiah @ClubWPTGold IDK man, if @DougPolkVids poking his head into a 0.01/0.02 NL HE table and jamming his 50 BB into my TT with A3 counts, then I have! 🤣

I had to hit a set to win that pot though, so I think I earned it (read: got lucky for it).

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

Ayoooo it's a baby prize, but free chips are free chips. Thanks @ClubWPTGold!

[Warhead42 Gaming @Warhead42]

Okay I haven't been playing poker THAT long, but this is the nastiest thing I've ever seen.

Not a gift box prize, but @ClubWPTGold definitely dumped some chips on me.
