Appreciate the effort in coming out with content despite the hectic schedule! There should be a medal given at the end of the Olympiad for this as no other participant is doing this!
Really, a medal? I think she would be fine with a sincere "Thank You". If she wanted to give you a medal for putting the toilet seat down, "because nobody else is doing it", well forget it. Because it is better that she knows that you did not piss on the doughnut seat. PS: You gals never thohght of that huh? lol
These recaps have been fantastic. There does seem to be an elevated maturity to how you are presenting/explaining as well as your insight. So exciting to watch you progress in your career.
Very enjoyable analysis and awesome to hear that Sweden is doing so great. Thanks for keeping us updated! Jag håller tummarna för er. Ni är riktigt grymma! Heja Sverige
Super refreshing seeing someone that is able to have such reflection (and make a public video) without negative emotions about a 6 hour game loss. To me, it teaches me that I need to be humbler than I am and that you are more than those saddening emotions. Vamos Ana, dales caña!
This analysis was fascinating and thank you for sharing with us your own learning experiences through this game. What I love about ALL your videos: you are a happy warrior and you use every game as a learning experience.....first for yourself.....and then you share it with all of us! I want you to win, but I appreciate your healthy attitude (and good sportsmanship) whenever you don't. That was pretty wild when she played all those great moves with her time running out! And I LOVE the main lesson: the game isn't always what it seems. I'll DEFINITELY remember that! Thank you, and good luck tomorrow!!!!!!
I enjoy watching your videos Anna. I appreciate your happy and upbeat demeanor. I got a big kick out of your quote at 23:45 "these knights are the most annoying knights I have ever played against." lol. Your commentary is excellent and very instructive.
She does not seem to live in a self delusion about how good she is in reality. A lot of people do that. I try not to, because I think it hinders further understanding and growth. The seemingly back side of that kind of thinking is, it seems to hurt your confidence while others may win more and be cocky (to themselves or others) at the time. But true confidence comes from winning and winning only, and doubting your self from beginning to winning, (while building on what you know),---is real tough to beat IMO. I enjoy her, "sense of life". (A wonderful term from Ayn Rand).
Strengthen your body with physical training and your mental strength will increase as well. Bobby Fischer won many of his games through mental toughness and strength. He wore them down mentally. But you must strengthen your body with weight training and running endurance and speed. It will transform your game and your life. You can accomplish things you never dreamed of.
yes c3 was a mistake...instead Ne5 supported by f4 is a very strong position for white especially against a higher rated player. a blocked centre leaving you space on the kings side to bussle in.
Back around 77, we had 2 Swedish students stay at our home for a couple of weeks in rural Michigan. They had wooden shoes, did not like Italian salad dressing, loved our piano, and wrung my dirt bikes neck wide open down the roads. I liked them myself. :)
Anna said she was "sad" after this game Of course it is so normal after such a long and intense game that she cares about the result But then she questionned herself why is she being sad? I mean she is that much smiling and happy all the time that she ask herself when she is not Her mentality and positive energy is so inspiring for me, and her smile is also very contagious so please, Anna, keep this up, you make me happy ! Btw very good job on the recaps and the games so far, I very much enjoy them !
Great job with the video. You did excellent with looking up making eye contact and can hear you perfectly clear and understand what your saying easily. I think you did a great job overall thanks for the video.
Thanks for this video it was really instructive and inspiring to me even if this was a loss. You fought really well against a strong opponent. Good luck on your next game.
Nice video ! As for the brain "slip" strong players suggest to look away of the chessboard so as to visualize the line you are calculating and move the pieces on your brain and avoid being "destructed" from the view of pieces on the real chessboard.
Congratulations Anna. You are so important to chess in World. I'm your fan. Very, very special your dedication to make chess more and more funny in ours lives. Good lucky in the next rounds of Chess Olympiad.
Oh that knight move to protect your queen and attack hers, I didn't see it either until you pointed it out. That would have shocked her I think. with her low time.
If you can explain to me, (us). At min 5:34 you say you made a mistake and should have moved a pawn 2 places to "break the center". But that black center pawn is what is keeping the black bishop from controlling that diagonal to square e-4 that you mentioned earlier. My (lesser thinking) would say leave the black pawn there to make that bishop less effective. But my plans always get changed in this game on the average of one more move. :) Can you tell me if my thinking there is valid?
15:16 That's happened many times. It's probably calculation shorthand to register space as being threatened so we can eliminate it quickly from move tree. But when situation changes in later moves on our move tree we forget to remove the threat square. I don't know how to not keep making this mistake
20:24 Seems you went for b4 because you hoped to wait out your opponent and get her into deeper time pressure. You played even less aggressive when actually you should play even more aggressive during your opponent time trouble. Time trouble is like a multiplier on your aggression. So if you don't use aggression then the time trouble won't have much to multiply upon
23:13 I realize this mistake happens a lot too. When you make the obvious automatic move and then only after the play do you see what you could have played. I guess there are three kinds of main feelings we have in chess: There is no danger--No Wrong Move; Everything is danger but it's already lost--All Wrong Move; and warning danger--All Wrong Move Except One. Maybe it would be helpful to identify the situation in this way to decide if what you are subconsciously telling yourself is true.
I sure do love watching your recaps Anna. I really love how clearly you speak and you pronounce words so well. You have the kind of voice I could listen to and never get tired of. So sweet. And that is so amazing about Sweden! What a team!
The Colle is fine. Re1 would have helped your push better. The system of b3 rather than x c3 might suit you better. Koltanowski's move, I think. Good Luck!
Anna saying “I have very exciting news and I have to tell you **them**” Me: reconsidering whether News is singular or plural… or if News is plural and it’s singular is New…
P.S I can't speak for anyone else, but I don't expect you to always be smiling. It's nice to be called a ray of sunshine (been there), but the sun isn't always shining on us, sometimes night comes and things get a bit darker and that, is also, okay 😊
11:25 Your knight is hanging and pinned. But you can play Nc5, attacking black's queen as well as a double attack on the bishop, basically forcing a queen trade, because i don't think black would like your queen on g7, forking a rook and a pawn. Not sure if that would lead to a preferable position because your knight wouldn't have many squares to go after the trade, but at least you wouldn't lose a piece there. You would also end up with a terrible development of pieces in general. Complicated position :) You were under the impression that a3 was still under attack. In the situation i mentioned, your opponent may have been under the impression that your knight couldn't move. Jumping out of a pin like that, can catch your opponent by surprise. In some situations, you may be able to use such tactics to your advantage. :)
Hi I have a question, why is the Boards1 to B4 are hving alternate colors? If a weak team encounters a very strong team, cant B1 and Brd2 just copy the movea of there opponent and ensure a 2-2 score for a forced draw? I read this in a novel.
People can analyse your online games and prepare. And you get advice, insight, feedback from your whole community, they don't. Great reflective comments, that's the way forward. Better lose now and learn from it, vs. when you defend your world champion title. :-)
This girl cares more creating content for her channel than preparing for her next games in the olympiad and taking rest. Thats a truly "team player" right here
Ask her teammates if they think so. Her mom is on their team as well and they all support her. A lot of chess players make recaps of their games afterward. It doesn’t take that long and it’s not like she doesn’t prepare for the next day or get enough rest. You’re just a loser
Enjoyed the recap? Anna this is far & away ur best video!!! I love ur observation, You can't think that an IM is going to blunder when in time trouble." Also, your comment about being new at this after you referred to the audience as "Chat:. Adorable. One question. Somewhere above it indicates that this video is from 8 months ago. After you called your viewers "Chat" you apologized and said "I am new at this." I thought you'd been streaming for either two or four years. No?
Are you playing for Sweden or yourself from the USA? Hey, I love that my Polish great grand parents moved here around 1903,-----for good reason. To live for themselves. Not one of my large members of family moved back, but I would like to visit. In advance,- welcome home when you get back to the USA. :)
Thanks for sharing with us. You are so impressive as a chess player, but even more impressive as a person. Good luck and I hope the brain slips stay away.
Do u think u failed to coordinate pieces and kept your bishop inactive while the opponent had connected rooks and an open space to expand on your king side with pawns? I think u castled too early, failed to gather any firepower to actually carry out a queen side invasion and with that failure came counter invasion. Check out 2018 alpha zero games and how it uses tactics for invasions, its kinda enlightening.
How this pointing system works? :D 19 countries has 3 wins but different points :D Is time left is giving some points as well? Btw Poland is doing good job ;)
The game was a slow squeeze from the very beginning. I watched as it happened and to me, it was loaded with tension. I kept hoping Anna could find a way to break through. Her opponent played masterfully.
As I watched some of the moves you chose not to follow through with were the moves I would have gone with as I was thinking ahead on your positional situations. Well done none the less. Here's hoping the next match goes better.

Sorry for the video being uploaded a few hours late! Was a long game but hope you enjoyed the recap :)
Norway did terrible. Even with Magnus Karlsen on board. They lost 3-1 to Italy.
I hope you guys win the competition.
All the Best !
Hey Anna. You don't have to care about us while tournament is going on. We will always be there for you.
Hi Anna. Welcome to india. good luck for your games
Tks!

As a born and bred Canadian, all I can say is “Go Sweden Go”. :)
I appreciate your detailed recap, your attitude, and willingness to learn and get better. Good luck in the next round!
Keep it up! Your fans are proud of you! 👏

Awesome recap. Thank you so much for sharing this with us, I learn so so much. Saludos desde Bcn!!
Crazy good commentary on your own play. I think few people can really do that.
She does not seem to live in a self delusion about how good she is in reality. A lot of people do that. I try not to, because I think it hinders further understanding and growth. The seemingly back side of that kind of thinking is, it seems to hurt your confidence while others may win more and be cocky (to themselves or others) at the time.

Your recaps are fantastic, Anna! And it so good to hear how positive you are despite the loss.
Love the commentary Anna, thank you.
Love from India ❤❤💓Anna and your team ,hope you enjoying tournament and indian culture and food ,good luck for next rounds👍👍😀
Thanks for showing us this, well done! Very strong opponent! Well done for learning from it and good luck for the rest of the tournament!
This taught me alot. The possibilities. The end game . Thank you. And good luck Sweden 🇸🇪 !!!!
Watch anna big smile in the first seconds of every video make me smile..
What a queen.
yes c3 was a mistake...instead Ne5 supported by f4 is a very strong position for white especially against a higher rated player. a blocked centre leaving you space on the kings side to bussle in.
Back around 77, we had 2 Swedish students stay at our home for a couple of weeks in rural Michigan. They had wooden shoes, did not like Italian salad dressing, loved our piano, and wrung my dirt bikes neck wide open down the roads. I liked them myself. :)
I always like players who show both their wins and loses. Really appreciate it.
Anna said she was "sad" after this game
Of course it is so normal after such a long and intense game that she cares about the result
But then she questionned herself why is she being sad?
I mean she is that much smiling and happy all the time that she ask herself when she is not
Her mentality and positive energy is so inspiring for me, and her smile is also very contagious so please, Anna, keep this up, you make me happy !
Btw very good job on the recaps and the games so far, I very much enjoy them !
Great job with the video. You did excellent with looking up making eye contact and can hear you perfectly clear and understand what your saying easily. I think you did a great job overall thanks for the video.
Such a great postmortem. Chess can be such a heart breaker. Thanks for sharing with us. Nothing like those tournament blues.
The miscalculation is literally everyday of my 1100 rated chess experience
Thanks for this video it was really instructive and inspiring to me even if this was a loss. You fought really well against a strong opponent. Good luck on your next game.
Wonderful analysis and an amazing game to go 6 hours! Thank you Anna 🙂
I just started playing chess a week ago, and these recaps have taught me so much. I'm currently here at a 600 rating lmaooo

Fun to watch: play over some games of Karpov, he is known for playing ..Ke7 in the opening with succes.
I sure do love watching your recaps Anna. I really love how clearly you speak and you pronounce words so well. You have the kind of voice I could listen to and never get tired of. So sweet. And that is so amazing about Sweden! What a team!
Nice to see the more relaxed version of you!
If that was THIS exhausting to watch I can't imagine playing this over 6 hours!!!
Great job beating Spain.
First it said that Inna drew, which would have been very weird considering how easily winning the final position was.
your analysis is amazing
I love that you are telling us what's happening with your Olympiad as it progressess. I am having a hard time following Belenkaya's progress
Awesome job and you did great! Had her sweating on time!!
Thanks for the in depth analysis. Good luck tomorrow!
The Colle is fine. Re1 would have helped your push better. The system of b3 rather than x c3 might suit you better. Koltanowski's move, I think. Good Luck!
Congratulations. I am pulling for you and your team.
great video! Thanks for the recaps :)
You are doing awesome with the videos, keep up the great work 👍
Anna saying “I have very exciting news and I have to tell you **them**”
Me: reconsidering whether News is singular or plural… or if News is plural and it’s singular is New…
You did awesome! We're proud of you.
What I find amazing is that Anna can speak eloquently and accurately for 38 minutes straight.
Thanks for the video. Good game.
Good game, Anna, you did what you could. IMs are tough :)
Thanks for you comments and analysis. Better against next game.
I think I learn much of chess from
this programs. Anna is a star.....
Super Happy for 🇸🇪 😊
The thumbnail of Anna is fabulous!
That was a tough game! I encourage you to allow yourself to grieve and not hold yourself back from crying. There's no shame in that!
P.S I can't speak for anyone else, but I don't expect you to always be smiling. It's nice to be called a ray of sunshine (been there), but the sun isn't always shining on us, sometimes night comes and things get a bit darker and that, is also, okay 😊
This is the london setup with the bishof at the wrong place
Not only interesting, but very exciting as well. Good move to not display the result until the end. This is quality content.
You learned a lot in this game. Go Sweden!
Nice recap. Stay strong!
instead of 9 Aa6 , what about 9 Ce1 to continue with f3 and e4 with your initial plan?
you and levy must be using the same editor for your thumbnails hahaha, love them though! lol
My brain doesn't imagine that squares are attacked, it forgets that they're attacked and blunders pieces on them!
Good luck Anna✌️
You often learn more from a loss than a win. It seems that you optimized learning despite the loss. Stay courageous.
Annas got fight, if the zombie invasion comes I want her on my team, your videos are informative and fun, rock on 😇👍
New thumbnails are awesome
Heja Sverige! Lycka till i nästa match.

What about queen takes f1 with check, king takes, bishop takes queen f3, the knight is hanging so its 5 points up
@@tarenk6102 Good point, i didn't consider taking the rook.
After getting my butt handed to me three games in row by engines on Lichess it's always nice to unwind with a little Anna.

Never mind Anna. Now be prepare for the next. Good luck! Saludos!
There's a profound difference between losing and being a loser. You don't strike me as a loser. Keep going!

Good luck against Cuba - you've got this!
Once again, you bring chess to life. Everyone has a plan until the first punch is landed. Keep fighting Anna. We are all in your corner.
Very long recap, Anna. Interesting all the way. Altho the game was very stagnant. Really hard for either side to create anything amazing
Once the opponent's knights got to e2 and d3 white is cramped and eventually lost.
The game was a slow squeeze from the very beginning. I watched as it happened and to me, it was loaded with tension. I kept hoping Anna could find a way to break through. Her opponent played masterfully.
You’re doing better then fabi. Keep up the good work
As I watched some of the moves you chose not to follow through with were the moves I would have gone with as I was thinking ahead on your positional situations.
Well done none the less. Here's hoping the next match goes better.
