@ChessVonDoom On the flip side of that, Sam Shankland (pre?)moved his king thinking he was in check at the Olympiads. We all felt so sad for him.

@ChessRumors This is a very ungrateful tweet and pointed to the wrong person: you should be asking your government (local, state and federal) why they’re paying teachers so little.

@natesolon Isle of Man seems fun if I had the level: being stuck on an island with hundreds of grandmasters sound like a life changing experience…

@hellokostya The real challenge with 4s on the clock is to have the presence of mind to realize it’s worth spending 3s to calculate. (assuming there’s increment of course)

@ChampChessTour Guess the GM.

@BRahming @POTUS ‘Climate change ain’t one of them’. Such a typical American way to view the world… grow up…

@Jacob26333 @GothamChess @TeamYouTube Be careful, YouTube might release a 75 pages long report on this matter, which they wanted to keep private.

@chicken_chess Would Laurent withdraw from a tournament if he suspected one of his opponent to have cheated against him?

[Niki Banerjee @ecn_niki]

@MagnusCarlsen @STLChessClub I’m really troubled by this decision. When you were ascending to chess imagine someone did the same to you. Losing is part of chess, if you can’t take it please retire for good rather than spoiling other’s careers.

@samidma92 1. f3 followed by 2. g4 (premoved) no matter what your opponent played. That way the suffering is short.

@MitchFabian It might make you feel better to know that it’s harder now to get to a given elo than it was 13 years ago. Either way, I hope you’ll make the best out of this ‘learning experience’.

[Niki Banerjee @ecn_niki]

Made it to 2200 rapid on #chesscom. And now the hardest starts: keep it above that :).

@olimpiuurcan Lichess, Apple podcast (so much chess content in there these days!), OpeningTree.

@aryan_tari You’re definitely not the only one. First thing I typed on YouTube when waking up to round 1 results was ‘fide candidates interview’ and the results got me sad…

[Niki Banerjee @ecn_niki]

@GMJacobAagaard @GMAlexColovic @EmilSutovsky @PHChess @ACP_Chess Such a great idea even beyond chess! I think we’re all tired of unnecessary interruptions and bullying in political debates.

@chesscom @Lona_Chess If Fide sees this they might ask you where the photo credentials are…

[Niki Banerjee @ecn_niki]

@chicken_chess In a previous episode you rated each player in the candidates across a few categories. Which player is proving you wrong so far and why?

[Niki Banerjee @ecn_niki]

@IglesiasYosha I can relate… similar thing happened to me this weekend.
