I got kinda baited into it, but in general I don&rsquo;t really mind playing a game every now and then, that&rsquo;s pretty well known. I might officially have retired 24 years ago, and haven&rsquo;t played a single otb (=over the board, =in real life) for over thirteen years by now, but okay I played a few online games yesterday and today.</p> <p>I figured that chess.com 2100 is miserably bad. I&rsquo;m winning almost every game, but then get flagged, which isn&rsquo;t too surprising. Let&rsquo;s do one, It&rsquo;s been a long time since I showed a chess game on some blog. The final game I played today was a little miniature with the oldest trick in human history in the end.</p> <p>But I shouldn&rsquo;t complain nor get overly excited with my beautiful 2042 rating xD</p> <p style="text-align: center;"> <img src="chessgame.png" alt="Sky24 vs SleepyMario annotated chess game" style="max-width: 100%; height: auto;"> </p>
