Top 20 DIRTY Chess Principles to DESTROY Your Opponent

[@miszczpowiatu7766]

The last one was too much...

[@stevekaczynski3793]

A bit sociopathic. James Eade described an early tournament of his where an opponent was eating a Sloppy Joe and took it upon himself to adjust all Eade's pieces, getting sauce on them. Eade was too naive to complain at that point to the tournament organisers and lost the game rather badly.

[@RJMTacoma]

2:59 into video the invite to take what seems a blundered Kt move by white is no a blunder, but a trap. Black’s move Q x Kt d4 results in black Queen’s lost with B x P h7 check.

Dirty trick #23. If the traffic light is green, cross the road.

[@funnyperson4016]

The dirtiest tactic was when Maurice Ashley was playing a chess hustler on the Tim Ferris experiment. He did a sneaky trick to try to capture two knights with the same pawn like it was an en passant but for a knight and he took the piece next to the one he was capturing. Then he used his pawn to capture the piece and took that too, and Maurice was like whoa whoa… and didn’t fall for it. It was some sleight of hand sneaky sneaky

[@kt_drul]

Tactic twenty, you can use the pawn as a queen. It is whatever you say it is at the back rank.

[@Grandcapi]

A pawn on the 8th rank does not mean anything. The rule is to replace it immediately with a piece.

[@pawnpusher]

Some of these apply only online and others only in person...

[@aimeeaveys]

For rule 7, Bxh7+ then Nxh7 or Kxh7 followed by Qxd5, exchanging a mere bishop for a queen and a pawn.

[@mortalchess]

nice, you gave the variations aswell.. your coach must be proud

[@patrickschott265]

I like how the knight is just hanging at 4:17, but you retreat the bishop anyway

[@mortalchess]

we need to stay on the script lol

[@kt_drul]

2:56 bishop checks the king leading to a discovered queen attack. As long as you never leave a piece unprotected, and look out for potential forks and pins etc you're good 👍 Three point loss in the mid game is not that bad though considering the you lost a knight and a bishop

I ask my opponent if he would resign and let me win. He said of course not. I then took out a 100 dollar notes and said "do we have a deal here ?". He smiled and took the money. Now, That's a dirty trick.

[@galaxytractor]

Actually you'd be better off in a tactical game against a strong player than in a positional game. You're probably going to lose both, but at least in a tactical game the stronger player may miss something. Not putting pressure on a stronger player is unwise because (left to their own devices) they can out maneuvere you.

[@freddiemercury2075]

Hard to outsmart a stronger player in a tactical game, unless your opponent is Ding Liren, then he probably would fall for a mate in 2.

5:12 Fun fact: if white's pawn was on the h, f, d, b file this would be a draw cuz the bishops after promotion would be the same color. And on this position there is a way to lose. Kc6 Ka4 Kd5 c6 Ke6 c7 Kf7 c8=B Kf8 Ka3 Kf7 Ka2 Kf8 Ka1 Kf7 Bf4 Bc1 Ba2 Bb2# The best try for white to draw is to not push the pawn at all and try to go for the 50 move rule.

Bashing poor #20 guy while Nakamura is firmly holding opponent's queen too. BTW, this list seems made by GPT. Real dirty is banging the clock, not letting opponent press it, knocking the pieces and making opponent return them to correct squares. Smoking in your face. Talking and distracting by juggling near the board. Checkmating by playing 2 moves instead of one when no witnesses, and famous number one - steal his rook. Bonus tip: hover your hand above piece like you will grab it, but fake change of mind many many times :) Bonus tip #2: you have body - use it. From staring to kicking.

[@mortalchess]

The kicking part might get you a black eye lol😅..is it worth the win?

[@strong8705]

[@RustyWalker]

"The first thing to note is that even if the opponent is deliberately hiding your captured queen (or any other piece you might want to promote to) there is no excuse for using some substitute because the rules allow for a simple solution: stop the clock, call the arbiter and ask for the piece you require. It is part of the arbiter's job to do this." If there is no arbiter, there is still a clock that can be paused while a queen is found

[@mortalchess]

you are not pausing the clock against a chess hustler in the park..you wont hear the last of it lol😅😅

[@freddiemercury2075]

If you do that in a tournament your opponent would call the referee and the referee would speak to a microphone he's wearing and the whole stadium would spend some 30 minutes shuffling around awkwardly while waiting for decision from the VAR.

#17 is _Keyser Söze_ "...and like that...he's gone."

[@yosefcohen483]

I like rule 16 - use the rules to your advantage. words to live by. * You forgot Visual tricks: People don't see queens who move horizontally, or straight backwards (like rooks do, say from h7 to h1, if your rook is already on 7th rank, neither you or your opponent can imagine it coming back, for attacking purposes). look at 4x4 - coins, dots, smileys. you know automatically that it's 4x4 - you don't count the row or the column. Now try 5x5 - you need to count it to be sure. Same goes for pieces in chess - the opponent can hardly see it if your queen moves from a5 to e5. to d5 he can see. Also, it's kind of hard to see that the queen can jump from d8 to g5 (Qa5+, Qxg5) especially because she's dark, sitting in a dark camp.
