Dear #chess#chesspunks friends, I've decided to start using chess com more actively. It would be great to connect on the site. Here's the link to my profile: chess.com/member/milkytea
What Gukesh's critics overlook is that he's a streaky player. I also said this before he won the Candidates. He's inconsistent, but on his hot streaks, he tends to blow everyone away.
At his peak level, I don't think he's an underdog against anyone apart from Magnus
"I don't respect the tournament, but I don't want cheating to fester in it" is a 100% coherent and reasonable view from @FabianoCaruana on TT.
Cheating is an existential threat and we need harsh anti-cheating measures everywhere - for all our sakes!
I have a reputation for taking long thinks in board games generally, and unfortunately this extends to chess. Comparisons with Grischuk's time management have been made. Some opponents aged 12 or under have politely reminded me that it is my move during games.

I scored 4/6 in a 15+10 OTB rapid tournament today (u1800 section). Started with 4/4 and beat the #1 seed, but unfortunately got outplayed in the final rounds by 2 excellent players! #chesspunks
Hi #chesspunks, on Sunday I have a 6-round rapid tournament (15+10).
I haven't played an OTB rapid tournament for over 5 years.
Do you have any advice (about e.g. preparing, what to do on the day, or chess process)?
First win against a 2200+ in rapid on @lichess✅
Reached a peak rapid rating of 2191✅
Played a nice exchange sac ✅
The last 3 months has probably seen the best chess I've ever played! #chesspunks
At this point, becoming a Gukesh fan is almost morally obligatory.
He is not being given the respect he deserves by the chess establishment, so ordinary fans should compensate him!
