[@gmraven]

[@22gregory22]

[@gmraven]

You're welcome 😄

[@Ryanrobert291]

Oh this is going to be a fun series!

[@gmraven]

were going up!

[@JohnJSchuh]

Thank you for doing this! This is very instructive on playing the bird!

[@gmraven]

Glad it was helpful!

[@zachariapember1416]

yess loving the new daily uploads bro

[@gmraven]

youre welcome bruv

[@kristianrother]

This is fun but I'd recommend starting at 400, 600 or even 800 :D Kudos on the language plans. I'm learning Vietnamese which is pretty hard since there's no vocabulary basis compared to European languages and pronouncing things is really hard.

[@gmraven]

Vietnamese is a tough one! Yes, for future speedruns I'm starting at 300. Around there people start playing coherent openings.

[@mahmoudm.5795]

I approve of this speed run!

[@gmraven]

lol!

[@GeorgeSmyth]

Yes, you will find many interesting games at this level. You may wish to consider moving to 5 minute games for the first few hundred points, as the moves will pretty much be the same.

[@gmraven]

It's tricky! Are you the bird course guy by the way??? I heard good things about your free course

[@burkster8]

to let you know boss, "it's time to go" man, Claude, passed away a year or two ago. Sad times, was a cult legend in the UK youtube football scene

[@assholepopf]

He died 2021. RIP

[@gmraven]

I know bruv. Sad day for all arsenal fans. It's time to go!

[@concool770]

100 elo. It’s time to go 🎉

[@gmraven]

its time to go!

[@justinmichot5298]

Will you be playing in the qualifiers for the next Champions Chess Tour event? Jul 12, 2024 CCT Qualifier 3

[@gmraven]

Don't have the time atm! I'm finishing bird course, making edits for another, and making an entirely new on around a black repertoire. Also the youtube. I plan to play seriously in mid 2025 when my schedule frees up

[@twiho]

“Will they play the Froms gambit?”, no ofc not. They don’t know what an opening is. Please remember that these may be children or differently abled. Btw see you when you around 600. I’m gonna give you a run for your money. And my queen.

[@gmraven]

Lol we'll see about that!

[@chilloutvibesforyou]

I've been playing Chess since the late 1960's so I've seen plenty of positions like this 😉

[@gmraven]

Lol!

[@iceyroo]

Lowkey 100 Elo is harder than 1700 Elo…

[@gmraven]

It takes a lot of dedication

[@sh3lton]

So there are people who are actually 100? Damn

[@gmraven]

Yeah bruv it's a wild world

[@feinfein4444]

What if u make it 3 min games instead or rapid time control, that way you climb faster ?

[@matthewhull9415]

need to have the analysis at higher levels

[@gmraven]

Those are some good suggestions.

[@rudisimon199]

I understand that he is a gm and I respect him, but why he thinking and making tactics against a 100?

[@gmraven]

Why not 😀

[@kheirosdn6483]

Speedrun let's goo 🤍 keep going bro

[@gmraven]

Thanks, will do!
