GM Anish Giri joins us in the studio, showing off his new jacket! 😅 @anishgiri #eccc2025 #clubcup2025 Alojzije: It is like a motorcycle jacket? Anish Giri: Yes, and I hope the motorcycle comes as a bonus if we win the tournament! 🏍️ Alojzije: But it’s 20 degrees outside, you

Facts.😂
You can link all your "secret prep accounts" on ChessMonitor and see all your games merged together, 100% private. If you take screenshots of it and share them on instagram, though...

Almost leaked all my anonymous chesscom and lichess accounts on Instagram in the honest effort to promote https://t.co/aLodzdaORf. Total noob.🤦🏻♂️

If you devalue all titles, you have devalued none.
On a serious note, the official FIDE hierarchy from top to bottom now appears to be: FIDE World Champion FIDE Candidate (winner is higher, participant is equal to) FIDE Combined Champion FIDE Rapid & Blitz Champion

Win one world championship to qualify for another one, win that one to qualify to candidates?! 🤔 I told you guys, qualifying to candidates is tough!

The YouTube short is now approved by FIDE!
@viditchess Really funny, and to the point. But given a choice - would you prefer less confusing titles and less events/opportunities/funding? The status of official FIDE World Championship (Cup) brings in public attention, sponsors, hosting cities, etc. All these are multi-million

Indeed, this sketch is more informative, than it is funny. I guess that's what makes it funny.
Hey @viditchess, you nailed that short, bro. You explained it all so perfectly that @FIDE_chess should embed your short on their site! #incompletewccftw
