Monday warm-up. ♟️☕ White mates in 2

@Carl_Portman Totally agree!

I dont know why grown adults feel the urge to consistently swear on this (or any) platform. I simply turn off or don't engage when they do. There is a beautiful vocabulary out there, use it. We are not neanderthals. Well, most of us aren't. 😉

@chessmensch @chessable 1...Bd3+ 2.Rxd3 Qh1+ 3.Ke2 Qxe1+! ...and wins.

Starting Out: Queen's Gambit Accepted can lead to some pretty tactics. I played this against an IM today. What would you play for Black?

@AshtonChess I posted this recently on FB....a beautiful move!

Beauty

@GMIgorSmirnov 1.Rc5!

All the pieces are needed for this one! White mates in 2 🤔🤔

@Carl_Portman @LozHCooper A fantastic achievement!

Just reflecting. I don't want to bang on but receiving the MBE was one of my proudest moments. I am only a council house kid. I wish my mum and grandparents could have seen it because they encouraged me to work hard and try to be good, but above all be myself.

@ImShahinyan 1.e4

White mates in 2 A nice one 😍

@IMPeterLarge Agreed

Well done India. Pretty good effort by England though. #INDvENG #T20WorldCup

@IMPeterLarge Congratulations and welcome to the club!

Today: The first tournament of my eighth decade!

@dgriffinchess 1.Ne7+

Karpov-Kavalek, Turin 1982. Black has just played 36...Qd6-d5. White traded queens. The World Champion was evidently short of time, but even so, a truly astonishing miss.

@Chesspuzzle_net 1.Rg4+ Rg6! ( 1...Kh6 2.Qf4+ Kxh5 3.Rf5+ wins) 2.h6+ Kxh6 3.Rxg6+ hxg6 4.Qh3+ Kg7 (Kg5 5.Qh4#) 5.Qh8#

Only one way to win - can you find it? Interactive puzzle and solution: chesspuzzle.net/Puzzle/87532

@IMPeterLarge Congratulations!

Today. Colchester seems nice.

@Chesspuzzle_net 1...Ng3+ 2.fxg3 Rxh3+ 3.gxh3 Qxh3# or 2.Kh2 Nf1+! 3.Nxf1 Rxg2+ 4.Rxg2 Qxh3+ 5.Kg1 Qh1#

@ImShahinyan 1.Rh1

White mates in 2 It took me 40 seconds to find 🤯 Post your timing!

@bennettchess 1...Rxc5 2.bxc5 Nd3+ 3.Kg3 f5! ....and Black is in complete control and can simply start to advance his King.

Black to play & win elegantly:

@Beathhigh Beautiful!

The Shore, Leith, this morning.

@ImShahinyan 1...Nf5!

Black resigned. If you asked, "What else could they do?", look carefully 😎

@NewInChess Normal is 1 ...a4 pinning down White's Q-side.

IM Trevor Tao is leading the Australian Championship after 9 rounds. Here is a snapshot from is win in Round 5. How did Black get a slight enduring advantage here?

@GMIgorSmirnov Yes sir!
