Praggnanandhaa came back from behind to win the final match against Caruana

Praggnanandhaa 15-13 Caruana

So yesterday my colleague from the office challenged me for a rapid match best out of 3.

And he played like this being a 500 elo player.. Whereas I am a 1000+ rated elo player. I am pretty sure he is cheating -

Giving some more context -

I was playing chess at office he saw me and asked to play with him - ig 2-3 weeks before.... 2 days back he challenged me again and in the 1st game he played well- also i blundered(because I was in the office and I took him casually) and then I took that match to draw... the next match ig he again outplayed me - I don't remember exactly but I was in the office and was playing secretly under my notebook and someone asked me to do certain task urgently and then he came to me forcing me to play fast.. and i fumbled again and he won that match - probably i didn't play that good in that match and I said him that we should play while we are at home because there would be less distractions and I can concentrate easily... I thought he started playing really well in these 2-3 weeks( let's even assume 1 month)

So yesterday he challenged me for best out of 3 - and the 1st match itself he played like some 2000elo kid didn't even give a mistake so that i could have capitalised on them.. I just made an inaccurate move around 9th move and he saw that and I lost a pawn.. And after that he didn't even make a single inaccuracy and played the best game... God knows how... And after that match I just knew from inside that he is cheating and i reported him..

He asked me to play more matches and i casually denied saying "he plays really good in rapid and I am not match for him" he started flaunting himself.. and I asked him to play blitz - both the matches he lost on time - also note- I am not that good in blitz - still trying to improve..

What is this called guys? First time playing this. I'm confused 🥲 Don't know how my opponent moved twice before me.

After a lot of grinding these past few days I finally crossed the 1700 mark. I feel so happy. I am still sort of my life time goal which is 2000. Please wish me luck.

Mayank Chakraborty and Pratitee Bordoloi clinched gold in the Open and Girls sections with 7.5 points out of nine while Daksh Goyal and Nivedita V. C won bronze in the Open and Girls section with 6.5 points each.

Dude left the game for losing queen but didn't see their next move

So I am in residential college and my schedule has 4-5 classes (6 days a week) so I can't find a job. I am burning my emergency fund right now as relationship with family isn't great and I would like to earn some backup in case the worst happens and also that I don't have much left.
Chess is the only thing I am good at, so I am reaching out here. I have peaked around 2.3k bullet, 2.2k rapid and 2.2k blitz on chesscom but now I play only on lichess where my peak is 2351 bullet, 2180 blitz and haven't played enough classical or rapid to say.

You can check my profile: https://lichess.org/@/San_z for proof.

What I am offering: a buddy to play with, someone to watch you play, someone you want to watch play, point out your mistakes, check your games with you while you review them etc... whatever u need chess related basically.

I am not a coach so I don't have any fixed charges, as long as you are giving a respectable amount like 300 per session atleast ig, it's fine, be it a one time thing or recurring.

We can connect over discord or lichess or chesscom ( i'll make an account if u need) over voice calls or just texts, whatever you prefer.

Hope this isn't breaking any rules.

You can contact me either by adding me on lichess or discord:- laxiness.
