Hey Reddit, I’m Maxime Vachier-Lagrave (aka MVL), chess grandmaster, 3-time French champion. AMA!

Glad to be here for this AMA!! I’m excited to chat with you all today.

A little about me… I started playing chess at just 5 years old and became a grandmaster at 14! In my chess career, I’ve been a three-time French chess champion, ranked world #1 in rapid οΌ† blitz (2019) and I more recently finished 2nd in the FIDE Candidates tournament last April. I also took up writing and published a book called "Chess Player" in 2017. I am currently a Kasparovchess ambassador, Garry Kasparov’s new chess platform where you can find a cool documentary about my journey at the Grand Chess Tour in Abidjan and Paris (https://kasparovchess.com/documentaries) (2019), among many other pieces of exclusive content.

Aside from chess, I’m also a tennis and soccer enthusiast. But I never stay away from playing for too long as I enjoy all things game related - video games (Fall Guys, Among Us, ...), board games and I even try my luck at the casino sometimes! 🦈

Soooo ask me anything about… anything really! Let’s do it. Starting at 7pm CET / 1pm EDT

About this AMA: This AMA has been organized by Kasparovchess. Kasparovchess is a world-class chess community and platform for beginners, enthusiasts and experts alike which offers exclusive access to chess lessons, matches, articles, in-depth videos and documentaries as well as an invaluable master class with the 13th World Chess Champion Garry Kasparov.

[Upcoming AMA] Maxime Vachier-Lagrave on June 29

We welcome one of the world's top chess players, MVL, to join us on an AMA this June 29 at 10am PDT/1pm EDT/7pm CEST (click here to see what time that's in your location).

EDIT, Happening here: https://www.reddit.com/r/chess/comments/oabae9/hey_reddit_im_maxime_vachierlagrave_aka_mvl_chess/

Maxime needs no introduction, but in case you are new to professional chess, you should know he was once the world's #2 and with a peak FIDE rating of 2819, it makes him the seventh-highest rated player of all time. He earned a spot at the 2020-2021 Candidates where he ended in second place, half a point behind Ian Nepomniachtchi.

Some links here to learn more about him:

So start preparing some good questions for Maxime. DON'T POST THEM HERE, MVL will make his own post on June 29.
