My new course with
@chessable
is now out, Starting Out The Trompowsky! . If you solve the puzzles I post here and wonder how I get so many tactics in my games. This is the answer.

What's the most beautiful (doesn't have to be the best) chess move you've ever played? This self-fork is my personal favorite.

Not worried about the chess. A bit envious of the beard.
If we end up with a teenage world champion, that makes you feel how about your own chess?

A GM hit me with this pretty decoy/fork tactic. What detail did he miss?

Black just captured a poisoned pawn on d4. Can you spot the trick?

Checked a past game of mine with

Carlsen will refuse to play unless they change the match to 250 games of hyper-bullet.

I sacrificed a ridiculous amount of material for checkmate but Black could have played an amazing saving tactic. How would you defend?

Everyone learns the traps in their openings, but one strange move order and we're all beginners again. What did my GM opponent just blunder?

This is the double rook sacrifice stalemate combination that it liked so much.

In a high security tournament Hans is barely as strong as … checks notes… Levon Aronian.

You don’t have to Einstein to find the best move here but he was and he did.

Found a nice shot in blitz against

today. He won the rematch in style as well. GGs.

For those new to chess, this is the part of the candidates where we traditionally take a year-long break.

A puzzle based on a recent game. White to move and win. Hat tip to

for the idea.

Figured I should remind myself how to play G/10 if I'm going to play the

Global Championships this month. Getting back in the groove with Qxh6+.

This is one of my favorite puzzles and Aronian solved it almost instantly. How kind does it take you to find the forced mate?

A man goes to a doctor and says he's depressed. Says he's been withdrawing from tournaments and resigning on move two. The doctor says "treatment is simple. Watch the World Champion's games and be inspired." The man bursts into tears. "But Doctor..."

Daniel Naroditsky, playing Black in a bullet game, found a move that would have impressed me in classical. What would you play?

Managed a beautiful end to my week. Black just captured a rook on b1. White to move and mate in four.

Love these sort of promotion tricks. Can you find the win if Black captures a rook?

I just uncovered a study-like sideline from the Carlsen -Firouzja game today. Black to play and win.

My opponent (who's never read The Next To Last Mistake) resigned here. How could Black prevent mate? Who's better here and why?
