I just crossed 2000 on @Chesscom I am 6.5 years old. And it took me 1 year & 2 months to move from 1000 to 2000. Let's see if I can hold on to this. Looking forward to bigger battles & greater growth.

Thank you, @sharan_rao_

Biggest chess influencer giving FIDE multiple free layups for engagement to promote their most important event of the year.

Instead, they're posting pictures of the venue 🤦‍♂️

(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.
