My very talented gf is in STL photographing the US Championship! She’s a university photography professor and after falling in love with chess decided to lend her talents to our favorite game.

First commentary video! It’s a bit rough around the edges but I’ll get better. On the condemnations of Hasan and how Zionism foments antisemitism
I got to play this in a rapid tournament. Black to move 😫
I made a video about this exact game a year ago, never thought I’d see it over the board. I can finally die happy
Gonna be annoying and tag my favorite chess creators @ben_finegold @GothamChess @GMIgorSmirnov @fins0905
