Hrastnik ♟️<p>After defeating the world numer 1 Magnus Carlsen in the semifinals, Vincent Keymer now took the lead in the final against world number 2 Fabiano Caruana. Amazing performance by the 20 year old in the Freestyle chess grand slam!</p><p><a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/chess" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>chess</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/chess960" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>chess960</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/FreestyleChess" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreestyleChess</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/MagnusCarlsen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MagnusCarlsen</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/FabianoCaruana" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FabianoCaruana</span></a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/VincentKeymer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VincentKeymer</span></a></p>
Hrastnik ♟️<p>The <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/FIDE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FIDE</span></a> drama continues as it threatens to sanction players who play in the <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/FreestyleChess" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreestyleChess</span></a> tour. This fighting is not good for <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/chess" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>chess</span></a>.</p>
Ralf Stockmann<p>Hat hier jemand schonmal intensivere Erfahrungen mit <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/freestylechess" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>freestylechess</span></a> gemacht? Ich mag die Prämisse, <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/schach" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>schach</span></a> vom Ballast der ganzen elenden Eröffnungen zu befreien, aber kann mir kaum vorstellen, dass hier auch nur ansatzweise ausgeglichene Partien in Bezug auf die Grundaufstellung herauskommen?</p>
