I'm balls deep in Chess

[THE Red Beard]

It's fun but bitches on Chess.com spoil it bit. Hit that resign button, motherfucker. Acquiesce to defeat. Don't just let the time run out or close your browser on me.

I can't stand quitters like that. In terms of stats, does a resign equal a win?

get on www.lichess.org homie

I'll check it out on the laptop!

I go through phases where in really into it.

Chess is always super fun to me but it's the same old story. Eventually it becomes more work than fun.

Eventually you're "studying" instead of playing, and there is an intense amount of memorization required to get better.

It's been theorized that it can drive you insane, as it did with Bobby Fisher.

The kid from that movie searching for Bobby Fisher (the real chess player, not the actor) said he felt that stress driving him crazy so he quit before he lost his mind and started doing bjj instead.

I can absolutely feel myself getting obsessed already and that has happened before. I have this thing where I want to be the master when I do something.

I think Bobby Fischer just had some serious issues with self-hatred. He was a Jewish person who was extremely anti-Semitic. I don't see how Chess causes that.

Sherbros!!! I have decided on my new hobby now that school is done and what not. I'm becoming obsessed with Chess. It's such a beautiful game and it has it all! The strategy, the style of play, the absolute art of it all! I'm reading a few books on it as we speak and I will be entering some tournaments once this pandemic ends. I play online a lot and my current ELO is 1740. I played my whole life but once I touched a vagina I shifted my focus.

Now I have one vagina for the rest of my life so I'm back baaaaaaaybeeeee!!! Any of you Sherbros play Chess? How's the competitive scene?

As I've said, I work in a prison and I have played countless games against inmates. They talk all types of shit but when you hit them with a Danish Gambit they realize you are an absolute savage.

Cliffs: Chess is my new thing...

Chess is a strange name for a dude that you're balls deep in my friend.

I'm thinking we should do a Sherdog chess club to have games together. Might be fun and we can have a championship belt. Anyone into that idea?
