    He always plays white and his first move is usually h3. Then he asks me how he can take my pieces. Sometimes he gets moves right, and I'm thrilled when he does.

    If you watch the clip, I want you to pay attention to how well Karpov and the host treat the kid, who is obviously under some massive pressure in a completely foreign situation. Again, there is the question of whether he belonged there in the first place. But apart from that, once he was on stage, the draw offer, the ushering the kid to his mom when he's crying, the pick-me-up of the puzzles after. It was good.

    My son was an excellent chess player at 3. He was also fluent in three languages and could read and write. He grew up to be normal, intelligent but not Uber nerdy. We moved to Australia when he was 7 and he lost the ability to speak German and Dutch. He lost interest in chess and would likely fail to reach a 1000 rating. Kids are amazing in their first years. Like sponges for learning whatever they set their attention to. Some parents push their kids to excel, but I think it’s better if they do things only as long as they enjoy doing them.

    The kid is undoubtedly exceptional! The first puzzle was actually fairly simple, and I saw the solution at the first glance. The second puzzle was more challenging and quite interesting, but it was still solvable, as there was nothing else to do if the back-rank mate was to be avoided. But the third puzzle-oh, my God! I failed to recognize the solution to that problem because, contrary to conventional wisdom that having only a king + a knight or a bishop is not enough to mate the opponent's king, I had not even considered the idea that one of the two figures should have to be sacrificed.

    • @36AccountsBlockedRIP
      @36AccountsBlockedRIP Год назад +4

      This is Russian TV so I'd be skeptical. The kid must have seen something similar to the third puzzle before and had an idea what to do. It's pretty incredulous for a three-year-old to solve that one out of the blue in front of an audience with limited time, especially considering that this kid is now about 10 and 1173 rated. If he had done that third puzzle out of the blue at that age, surely he'd be 2000 by now without even trying hard.

      After around 1500 it gets tricky. A lot of players stick around 1500-1700 their whole life. So it depends how much you like to improve. 2000 also can achieved in 2-3 years i would say. Time is definetely on your side.
