I’m obsessed with chess and currently on the grind to 2500 ELO, documenting the ups, the downs, the big wins, and of course the moments where I blunder my pieces. Check out my YouTube channel @chesswithtobescox, where I break down the idea behind every move I make — basically sharing my thought process in real time. Chess has become more than just a game for me; it’s a challenge, a teacher, and, like I said, a bit of an obsession.

I mainly play the Jobava London and the Scandinavian, but on a good day I’ll dive into the Italian, Scotch, or Spanish, throwing myself into sharp, tactical positions — even if it sometimes ends with me blundering in style. Wins keep me motivated, losses keep me humble, and together they fuel my improvement. When I’m not playing, I’m creating content around my games to share ideas, mistakes, and lessons with others chasing the same journey.

If you run into me online, expect creativity, unpredictability, and a player who’s always learning.
