chess makes 0 money

and 1200 at 13 is pretty mediocre, under average actually, compared to GM's and IM's ratings at that age. not meant to offend, just the truth.

good thing u quit, 0 benefits from chess

I wish i would have let my grandfather coach me. He is an actual chess talent, he was a local championship winner at 11 yo.
He had like 2k+ elo on internetchessclub at age 80.

Edit: I wish i would have been able to keep doing anything at all consistently since my youth.
But i didn't.

if ur not atleast 2k FIDE by 15 its over my guy

tell me u know nun about chess without telling me

all of the greatest chess players started chess insanely early, like 7-8 years old or something like that

and being 1200 on chess.com is like 1050 FIDE, they're not 1:1

i get that, but why would u waste ur time for this useless "sport", which wont make u money and will not give you any advantages

better put all these hours into an actual skill, be it coding or whatever so u can set yourself up for later

u did the right choice to stop playing

and u can still play chess for fun, no one is stopping you dawg

Because sports are fun? If something is fun u don’t care about the money in it and u don’t need to be the best at it?

"Tyler1's peak chess rating is 1960 on Chess.com in the rapid format, which he achieved around May 2024. This rating placed him in the top 0.5% to 0.6% of all players on the site."

fyi he played the SAME "Cow" opening every fucking game

he did have like 10k games total, but if u have the time and u learn some good openings u will get to 2k on chess.com

Current chess isn't the same like the one during fishers generation,we have Ai,computers and the internet all Fischer had back then was a book and a board,he also had multiple mental health issues.

When you see the current grandmasters today's generation they would slam the old era of grandmaster because the games change every year;even magnus carlsen admits his tactic is memorization.

I've tried to memorize but its very hard and when i mean its hard its literally take hours, days even weeks to fully memorize it, for me i see that old Gms is way better, understand the moves is easier, understanding why this move is the best move, if your opponent was memorizing type, you can easily defeat him by playing a random move, not fully random like a move he will never expect

Difference is today's grandmasters have been playing since a VERY young age,same like the old GMS but more competively

Memorization would kill any future move because you already have 5-7 different options to respond with instead of just calculating what's the best response

The main thing that low key made me a goat at chess in school was memorization;but that was last year:feelswhy:

yeah fischer hated what modern chess had become by the 2000's with deep blue and shit so he created the fischer random. i also don't think he had mental health issues, he literally just had one of the sharpest brains of the 20th century and people just didn't like hearing the truth from him
