Is my chess waifu here? I just want a qt chess girlfriend who can at least put up a decent fight. We'd play on our marble chess set during a thunderstorm whilst drinking tea.

Inb4 Mato is browsing this thread; hey there.

>not playing riichii mahjong

>tfw been stuck at 1400 for 6 months
if the game doesn't start with a ruy lopez, french, or italian i have no idea what to play

any more knowledgeable anons have some tips?

>>37709948
That does not work, the black king can take the white queen

>>37709948
Ah ok, that works too! Good alternate solution.

>>37710071
Holy fuck anon, who is she??. Also,that sounds hella nice senpai

>>37709937
I guess you mean d3, but that would be a stalemate

>>37710120
Shit, it's true my bad senpai

>>37710170
white can win in this position.

hint: find out a way to give black more moves

>>37709937
king g1, king f1, queen pawn, retreat king, mate. this sequencing avoids stalemate

>>37709937
White king needs to get out of the way to avoid stalemate. Then promote the pawn to a queen and do some cleanup. But I don't see a checkmate in under 4 moves.

>>37710226
after king g1, black has to play d3, no matter what move white plays then, it leaves black with no legal moves, stalemate.

>>37710130
Vesna Rozic I think

>>37710297
Uh, wait, are white pawns going up or down? How can I tell?

https://lichess.org/KL8XmEY6

>>37710293
moving the king still leads to stalemate.
hint: b6
>>37710330
white pawns are going up.

Yeah its totally real, Barron is a real character

He actually got mad and ragequit a few times, but I talked him back into playing. He said I was being too smug, but it was hard to keep a straight face

>tfw too shy not to play with AI

>>37710704
white has a forced checkmate, tricky to spot but it is possible.

pls play with me desu

>>37710819
yup! you got it! well done

>>37708818
>move h5 to f7
>black has to move f8 to f7
>e1 to e8

Checkmate.

>>37709937
Ok please explain to me why everybody is having a problem with this one. White to a-8, white gets the queen back. Blacks can only move pawn to d-3. Queen moves to g-8. Black has no pieces left to move, king can't move. Checkmate.

plz play with me

https://lichess.org/MBcdNmfr

>>37710951
if black can't move - and isn't in check its a draw.
You go to a8 get a horse - then d-3 then you go horse b6 - black has to take - then you do the same with the c-pawn evenutally you well go g8 and take horse checkmate.

>>37711553
nvm the > - fat fingers

>>37711490
its easy because there are very little moves to consider

>>37711490
what time format?

Is there a strategy in chess that revolves around using the king offensively?

>>37711778
not realy, unless its endgame and theres only pawns and a few pieces left

>>37711778
u need to use the king in endgames

>>37711778
>>37711805
there's also games like this one but they're super rare

tfw too dumb for chess

>>37711778
You can get pretty active with your king in the endgame, but it's obviously a fragile piece. The queen is strictly better in every way. Check out the "Bongcloud" for a joke King opening.

>>37712099
Eh, what's the problem?
White is just about to queen.

>>37712242
Bishop to b5 blocks his queening square for good

>>37712099
tricky one. Ke7, g4, Kd6, g5, e7, Bc4, Kc5 draw.

>>37712289
swicth g4 and g5 obv.

>>37712099
White needs to first take blacks pawn, then trade white pawn for blacks bishop to draw. First move the king to F7. It's not too hard from there.

>>37712289
>
aloso Bb5 not c4 - getting tired.

>>37711034
what an awful game kek

>>37712365
eh we both fucked up desu

Come join this tournament!
pw is the name of our glorious board
>https://lichess.org/tournament/1ufl8wa1

>>37712289
correct
>>37712310
kf7 loses black, black stops the white pawn from b5
>>37712384
that's what I meant

>>37712099
wow this was difficult, great puzzle
1. Ke7, g5
2. Kd6, g4
3. e7, Bb5
4. Kc5, Be8
5. Kd4, g3
6. Ke3, g2
7. Kf2,

>>37712289
>>37712418

Eh, can't Black simply move his King to b6 as 2nd move?
It's not like the White King can chase the black pawn down.

>>37712554
just kf6 attacking the pawn then e7 e8

>>37712554
Then second move is Kf6 and you caught the pawn

>>37712554
no because then white just plays Kf6
if black tries to run, you take on g5
if black defends with Bd3 or Bh5, then run your pawn down

>>37712554
Disregard this post, the White King can go around his own pawn.

Damn, my intuition is shit, because it looks like the distance is so big.

not too hard but white to move, mate in 3

>>37711490
1. Qxh6+, gxh6
2. Be5#

i would be interested anon

>>37712661
knight into hole forces Kg8, Nh3 double-checks and forces Kh8, Qg8 mate

>>37712661
>g5 to f7
>h8 has to move to g8
>f7 to h6
>g8 must move back to h8
>c4 to g8
>e8 must move to g8
>h6 to f7

Don't really see an easier alternative to checkmate.

>>37712661
mate in 4**************************** srry

>>37708818
I think its best to put bishop to f7, rook takes, rook e8, checkmate

>>37712971
oh yeah
Qg8 Rg8, Nf7 for smothered mate

>>37712938
yes thats right
>>37712888
Rxg8

>>37712989
>>37712989
no the rook can block. you take the pawn with the queen instead

>>37713016
>Qg8

Then the king just takes your queen.

Mate in three though

>>37713389
>Kd-8
Rook to d8? Doesn't put the king in check. Black can just take the pawn in e7 with their queen, plus a bunch of other moves that'll prolong the game.

Fuck Magnus, he's gonna lose his spot this weekend and drop like a rock. Hikaru will get rank 1 within 2 years if So doesn't

anyone have any good databases for chess?

>>37709361

Dis is my move for OP too

>>37713838
I've been thinking about it i actually can't think of one with only three moves from white

Has anyone read Tarrasch's 'The Game of Chess' or Nimzo's 'My System'
