Jacob Aagaard

Jacob Aagaard (born 31 July 1973) is a Danish-born Scottish chess grandmaster and the 2007 British Chess Champion. He is Scotland’s third-highest rated player as of July 2021, with an Elo rating of 2477. His peak rating was 2542. In 2004, he took second place in the Scottish Chess Championship. In 2005, he took first place in the Scottish Championship but was not a British citizen, so the title went to Craig Pritchett.

I will happily start working at 5.30am on a Saturday, but I don't drink coffee and I don't like Sunday morning rounds...

This one was quite tricky! The wisdom of crowds is less prevalent when it comes to tricky questions...
This was indeed Indjic - Carlsen, Warsaw World Blitz 2021, as some people brighter than I had indicated.

We have a record number of players submitting to our two homework clubs this week. More than 40 submitted to Friendly Homework and 22 submitted to Killer Homework, although it is a brutal week. Tomorrow @SamShankland will participate as a guest solver. Can he beat 9.75?

I hope @HarikaDronavali wins the event, as she is a wonderful player and person.
If she does not, I hope FIDE apologises to her and others for not having the rules in order so a repairing or partial adjustment of colours could have happened.

(4/4) On another note I could do with some tips on how to get a good sleep. It seems like I am a fully fledged insomniac. 😵‍💫
I was in bed at 1am last night but didn't even manage to get 1 minutes sleep after tossing and turning all night. Been awake for about 40 hours now. 😱

(3/4) I missed one very likely obvious winning move.
Here I played Bg2? but I should just play Qh6!
For some reason I had missed ...Qxh6 Bxh6 ...Nxc3 a3! Which is game over.
In the end I lost 😔 after Johann played excellently.
