Game Theory shows that burning bridges is a viable strategy. When you intentionally remove your own options, your threats become credible. The opponent knows you cannot back down, so they must now calculate differently. This is what a game theorist calls a commitment device. This strategy is massively high-risk, but it can change the entire game by forcing your opponent to readjust.

@Rozer_ This sounds smart in theory.. but Adverse Selection Risk+ Negative E.V bets would tell you to stay clear

Gambling hits completely different once you’ve got a few million. You can throw $200k on 1.25 odds and walk away with $50k profit. But when you’re broke, $50 on the same bet for $12.50 feels like nothing. Get rich.

Whatever you do, don’t be the guy who gives up at the exact moment when you should be fighting with everything you have. You’ll make it through either way, but there’s only one way you’ll look back and be proud of yourself.

Do you really understand that you’re never going to happen again in the history of the universe?

@HansMokeNiemann You don't deserve a say lil bro ... That 'supposed' number has won more tournaments between 2025-2026 than you will ever win in your lifetime .. learn to respect n learn from those who are already ahead of you...

For those without context, the supposed #1 player would be considered inactive in any other sport and wouldn’t be able to maintain his ranking. Tennis is the perfect example. Rating/rankings should reward ACTIVITY!

@SM_CEE1 It's the most expensive skill to learn in the world cuz you pay tuition with your time n losses but it's always worth it in the end

Experiencing mine ,like the great men that had come before me so help me God

@9jaTalkerX You can't outwork a poor economy n inflation... Sure they won't go hungry but they will progressively get poorer as the decades go by because of worse purchasing power n just Pure structural decay ... Trading your time for money can NEVER make u wealthy

No matter how you disagree, people with handwork are making it big now. Nobody wants to learn work, everyone is forming big boy and girl, looking for a fast money route. Skilled people are the ones now eating big; whether hard or soft skill. I know a saloonist in my street here, that woman makes of graduates salary's in a day. Builders and POP contractors, do you know how much they charge? Millions! Is it photo and videographers. Also fashion designers and printing press centers. Don't do anything na, your future go tell you.

@IAmManware Start Dancing on Tiktok bro... Attention is the new currency

My entire world view was based upon the narrative that if I am skilled enough, I will definitely get realized eventually. Even if school teachers or my parents fail to recognize it, I will pass the exam since I am skilled enough. And that did happen. But then - even if I have failed an exam due to bad luck, I am sure the right recruiters will eventually notice my skills. And that did happen. But then - even if most companies fail to recognize me due to flawed systems, I am sure my team leads, managers, teammates, and further companies will eventually notice my skills and I shall finally be fairly compensated. But then came AI. People are resolving tickets, building features and clearing interviews much faster than actually skilled people, with significantly lesser effort. On paper they're being way more productive. Being skilled enough doesn't get rewarded anymore. Delivering market value does. In a deeply unfair system where everyone is cheating, what can an innocent man do but adapt?

@teddi_speaks LARP

Thanks for the $bless ings! Nobody currently does it better, listen to me.

@liabilitree Do you use Orderflow

Percayalah walau leverageku 100x, margin yg aku pake kecil. Targetku sehari cuma $100. Selama 2 bulan ke belakang udah achieve. $100 x 30 = $3,000 / 51juta. Cukup buat funding kehidupan sehari-sehari seorang pengangguran kaya aku. 🤣

@rugal_fx Stop trading FX .. Pivot to Equities or stocks

Damn😭💔 I feel like crying. I actually don’t even know what to do again I’m tired of every single thing in this trading journey Have never thought of getting hard to this extent, have seen TP now it’s been over a month I’m going through that hell in trading I wish someone could just stood up and help me 🤲😭

@thatvietnamese @ChessbaseIndia @GMJSindarov GM level strength... Just Wow 😄

@ChessbaseIndia @GMJSindarov Bibisara and Javokhir are actually the strongest combined chess couple now with him being 2775 + Bibisara being 2516.

Bibisara Assaubayeva shares this picture with the words "My Champion!" While Javokhir has become the champion of the FIDE Candidates 2026 in the open section and will now play a World Championship match against Gukesh, Bibisara has a chance to win the women's section and get a match against Ju Wenjun. She is currently on 7.5/13 and leading the tournament with Vaishali. Bibisara will play Divya with the black pieces in round 14 and Vaishali will play Kateryna Lagno with the white pieces in the final round! It will be exciting to see who triumphs!

@Dr_Afo Oga na u choose to use cheap Redmi.... Go and use better Xiaomi flagship n stop capping nonsense

When you've used Samsung galaxy products for so long. You get used to their standard of smartphone. Fast. Instant. Reliable. Their only problem is fragility. Then you'd switch to another brand of smartphone like Redmi and you'd realize Samsung is not the mate of any other android brand.

Dear algorithm, please show this post to the odds, the outliers, autists, the contrarians, the weirdos who think differently, reject authority by default, are allergic to consensus, never fit the mould and rebel by instinct.

@therealoak111 @GMNeiksans True... But why take the risk though 😄... The onus was on Giri to bring the fight one which can go only 2 ways... Win a scintillating match or suffer an embarrassing loss😄 like Pragg(more likely given his Sindarov's form).. So Yeah maybe next year he will challenge Windarov😁

@GMNeiksans this is usually an indicator that the game never really reached a trully complicated state (and if it did, it wasn't for long as at least one side opted for a safe continution). A game where both score more than 99% is rarely an exciting game.

Imagine that in the most critical game of the Candidates you play a 99,2% accuracy game - should be a win, right? Well, the opponent responds with 99.5%! Congratulations to Javokhir Sindarov!

@vbnospace @chesscom Would agree but they are similar in over style

@chesscom Unlike the Gukesh, Sindarov’s chess is convincing and beautiful to watch.

WDWWWWDDDW Javokhir Sindarov 🇺🇿 has officially won the most games ever in the Candidates tournament current format - with FOUR rounds to spare #FIDECandidates

@Branen1977 @szobogod @chesscom Wanna play out the position?

@szobogod @chesscom Thats not losing.

@chessmateW @GMJSindarov @AnnaCramling @PeterGiannatos 😂 .... EQ vs IQ situation
