Just now I was watching a video on one of my favorite chess channels on yt when daryls name appeared as top donator (financial helper) of the channel.
Darryl Magnuson Morey! I challenge you to a live game of chess! Anytime, any place. Preferably in home box seats at halftime of game 1 of the 2019 WCF. I'll even let you play white.
I honestly hope we win a ring with Harden and CP3 in Houston, but also have to expect the unexpected.
As the saying goes: Morey is playing chess while everybody else plays checker. But seriously, $250? How much does the dude make? C'mon, Darrell. Don't be so cheap!
teh fukk is daryl morey? thank god our dorrell marley doesn't waste time in frivolous things like this.
Started watching this channel a few weeks ago, great content! I actually watched this video already but didn't notice the contributor list
Found this on a reddit AMA: Link: level 1 sixseven89 238 points·4 months ago Hey Daryl. Thanks for doing this. I have a couple questions. I follow agadmator's chess channel and I noticed that for a time you were one of his top donators. How did you get into chess, and how has it helped you in your career/life (if applicable)? Do you still play (and if so, what is your rating, lol)? [optional] Thoughts on Sam Hinkie? level 2 dmorey 403 points·4 months ago I still play chess on chess.com – I love that app. When I was 14 I was 5th in the state of Ohio tournament in my age group which was a total fluke – I was not that good – but it got me super jazzed about chess for a bit. I was lucky enough to catch the candidates tournament on an off day on my trip through Europe recently – I was very excited Caruana won – it is amazing to have the 1st American since Bobby Fischer to compete for the world title. I don’t really know if chess has helped me later – most studies about similar aptitudes have found no crossover – e.g. that being good at chess shows that in the future you will be good at…chess.
