I’ve recently been a little less active with making new videos and articles. We’re rapidly heading towards the end of the year, and I’ve been quite busy at work, and have been following the World Chess Championship between Ding and Gukesh! 🤩 As it was held in Singapore, it meant that the broadcast ran from 8 PM Sydney time, one of the few times that an international competition is at convenient hours for Australians!

So, congratulations to the young Gukesh, our 18th World Chess Champion! I was personally rooting for Ding, but Gukesh is deservedly the victor.

A week or so ago, Mrs Chess Noob and I were out at a local bar for a few drinks and dinner. I brought along a portable chess board (the Chessnut GO) and we played this rather fun game while a little bit tipsy. Mrs Chess Noob is much more of a beginner chess player and so, we allowed a rule so that she could change colours, swap sides, at a time of her choosing!

The big takeaway from this game is to try to find tactical threats to keep up the pressure when in a losing position, as it creates the opportunities for your opponent to make a mistake, and thus, get a reversal. Furthermore, consider playing this chess variant against an opponent who is weaker in strength as it’s lots of fun!
