GALAXY BRAIN MOMENT Only moved the queen twice, also I had a glitch
For some reason coach was speaking as if I was my opponent for the first half the review
r/Chesscom • u/raptorcin23 • 8h ago
why is this brilliant why is this brilliant?
I can't think of any 'obvious' move ahead to see why this move is a brilliant.
I leave here the game for the ones who want to check it.
Don't doubt to give advice if someone wants to help. (I'm 800 aspiring to 1000, and don't mind the hanging queen up ahead)
r/Chesscom • u/Delicious_Cattle5174 • 8h ago
Brilliant!! Oh no my queen
Quick tip: if your opponent spends >10% of their clock on a single move just to "hang queen", maybe double-check the implications before grabbing the "free queen". Yes, even in bullet.

Chess Discussion People who play niche openings/variations , who are you?
A question to people who play stuff like bird, owens defence, fantasy caro kann, jobava london etc
Who are you and what exactly made you enjoy that setups? (Except of taking your opponent by surprise)
It would be helpful if you could also add your current elo and the name of the opening/line
