Game of the Day!

Gawain Jones

Scotch Defense was played in this amazing match between Russia vs USA...

@UnityChess

For the first time, there are only 35 players on or above 2700.0 since http://2700chess.com was launched in May 2011, when there were 39 (the maximum amount of players on or above 2700.0 was 53) #deflation

Magnus Carlsen wins 8.5:4.5 in the end and is the first player through to the Last 16 of the #BanterBlitzCup!

After 115 moves in the last game of Portugal Open, Polish IM Stachowiak blunders in an apparently drawn ending by playing Rxh5?? allowing a killer blow by GM Aryan Tari who ends the event with a decent 7/9! Can you find it?

Happy 18th birthday to the reigning US Women’s Champion Jennifer Yu! She is a wonderful and dynamic young lady with a great future ahead of her! 🎂👑♟

Do you remember Carlsen's vs Peter Svidler end game when the played Rook+king vs Bishop+King ending game? (that some chess specialists called the best chess blitz ending game ever)

Now here we have same situation in a women's grandmasters game, which was excelent played too...
