Chess career edit

Pichot was Argentine champion at the U10, U12, U14 and U18 levels,[1] achieving the latter victory at the age of 12.[2] He became the Pan American under 10 champion in 2008 and as a result, he was awarded the title of FIDE Master. In 2014, he won the U16 section of the World Youth Chess Championships with a score of 9/11 points (+9–2=0), half a point ahead of the rest of the field.[3] He earned the grandmaster title in 2016, aged 17.

In July 2019, Pichot placed fifth in the American Continental Chess Championship with a score of 8/11 (+6–1=4), thus qualifying for the FIDE World Cup 2019.

In 2022, Pichot won the Magistral 50 Aniversario Torre Blanca tournament in Buenos Aires with a score of 8/9 (+7–0=2)[4]

Pichot has represented Argentina at the Chess Olympiad since 2016. He was on the reserve board at the 42nd Chess Olympiad, scoring 5½/8 (+3–0=5).[5] He played on fourth board at the 43rd Chess Olympiad, and scored 5½/9 (+4–2=3).[6]

In August 2023, Pichot announced his decision to transfer from the Argentinian chess federation to represent the Spanish chess federation, citing a lack of financial support as his motivation.[7]
