Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

JK - No reason why you can't use the current league to issue challenges.

I tend to only challenge people with a flag up out of politeness.

just timed out vs. cerid. Do I count it as a win (as I was up) or is that just mean? We are quick closely matched and I feel I'd earned my position.

Cerid, let me know what you think.

Here’s a nice lesson on how to win with a queen vs an advanced pawn (or try and draw if you’ve got the pawn).
The first 8 minutes cover the basics, the other 13mins are a bit more detailed.

CW - It's a win. Time control is part of it although it feels odd for a daily game.

Fair enough JK. I wonder whether the flag should be the opposite and mark busy with default being you're open to games.

From Jules post above Gotham Chess is good on twitch/youtube too. However quite a few of the other Chess streams are more about entertainment rather than instructional

Bugger, gobi just bullied me into a queen swap, and I'm wary of meglet's unorthodox knight positions
