exactly !!! this is exactly what I love harmonious energy, and just humbleness. Which is the best. Absolutely f*** people like that kid who Anna played some months ago in one of the usual places. The things he said it’s not hustling it’s being a complete asshole, as it’s absolutely not necessary. I was so glad that at the end they played another game, which we will see soon. Also I wish Anna could have reversed taking the bishop so that he could have played his line. But later it was cute and funny that he thought for a bit that he might have blundered. Even after Anna gave a check with her queen, he knew it was a bad move just didn’t right away know the best response. I hope you could play him more !!!
Lol, he did not overwhlem her. Anna used all her time (not the best in blitz) and then at the end anna is up a piece if she doesnt flag. He didnt execute the attack
@@lws7394she played a different youngster not long ago he was very competitive and trash talked throughout the game kids are kids many of them emulate the grownups that are closest to them this young man was taught to have manners and be respectful that was obvious
@@lws7394 At nine children ARE competitive... What are you talking about? We aren't talking about 600 elo players :) Who has 1900 at their 9 years - are competitive
Unfortunately within 2 years he needs to focus on school exams so he won't have that much time to play chess, I just had lovely long conversation with his parents yesterday...
What scared me was the THX logo at the beginning of movies and that scary increase of volume sound that would happen… I don’t even know how to explain it ahaha
not only has she developed confidence in going against several range of high rating players in tournament format but she also helping young new talent get exposure by upsetting higher rating chess players and is not afraid to show it. I'm sure the kid is going brag that he was able to get 1 off a WFM and make his parent proud that their kid has done such a good job in practicing and getting good at something he liked. Must be enjoyable to play with good personality like this
@@thomasdalton1508 the competition will immensely increases after 2000 so I think 4-5 years is more accurate. He will probably reach FM in like 2 years and IM in 4 I think
@@twgs60 I didn't say he would be a GM in a year or two. I said he would be beating GMs in a year or two. If he becomes an FM, that would put him within 100 rating points of a lot of GMs, so it would be very surprising if he hasn't beaten several GMs before that.
Anna is so gracious to a stranger. You can see it in her remarks to the young player throughout the game. Ethan handles himself so nicely for a youngster.
Ethan Pang, FIDE 1878, number 10 among players born 2015 or later. And, amazingly, number three in his own country (behind Bodhana Sivanandan and Kushal Jakhria). That's a strong generation of English chess talent coming up.

It’s always a joy to watch Anna play. She’s always smiling and laughing. She’s a lot of fun to watch and she’s pretty smart to say the least but her opponent here for eight years old is amazing.
I'm a new follower of Anna and I'm 75 with little knowledge of Chess. I think kids as young as 8 years old like Ethan may have the kind of brains that learn fast, analyze and absorb anything including chess game strategies. Just my humble opinion. Even if you talk to them, they will remain focused.
The despairing laugh by Anna when he said 2400!!!! These games are so nice, so educational and so humbling. These young kids with AWESOME chess skills are astonishing. THANK YOU, Anna for bringing these to our screens.
So, that was very cool to watch. Ethan, just wants to play chess. You could tell he just likes to play. I don't have a clue how to play chess, but I love watching you play and interact with others.
Yes, England have a few superstars in the pipeline - Ethan, Supratit and Bodhana are all in the 8-9 years bracket - but also Shreyas Royal, who is 15 with a classical rating of 2519.
An adorable video. Sort of knew how the game would end after you asked him his online rating 0:40 😄. Cracked me up seeing you stalling asking Ethan questions to delay the onslaught. Hope we see if you had better luck playing as white.
Ethan calmly: blitz 2400. Anna smiling: ok, then good night ladies and gentlemen. Anna is always smiling, which is really nice, she has a fighting spirit too :)
5 months after this video: "Nine-year-old CM Ethan Pang, the youngest-ever 2200 player, defeated three grandmasters in a recent classical tournament in Hungary and came close to breaking the 2300 rating barrier for the first time. Pang, who made headlines in July when he broke IM-elect Faustino Oro's record to become the youngest player in chess history to achieve a rating of 2200, scored a remarkable performance at the Vezerkepzo IM tournament that ended last week in Budapest, Hungary."
Chess is like marriage. The queen does all the hard work and sometimes sacrifices itself, while the king doesn't do much, but he's obviously the most important.
Ethan is so kind and cute, Anna is so kind and sweet. Both are brilliant chess players.They are a perfect pair. It is absolutely a pleasure watching them to play. Three minutes is too short for us to watch
This kid will definitely be a great champion someday. I'm just sure about it with no proof more than his very accurate thinking and excel level at chess at his young age.
Hi Anna, I watch a number of chess youtubers. Yours is by far the most pleasant and entertaining. It's not even close. Good stuff. Just keep being yourself.
the kid is SUPER cool, very cute boy, and hyper intelligent. carries himself with maturity beyond his years. obviously from a classy family. Ethan should hit GM 2500 FIDE by the time he is 12 or 13 at the latest.
I'm confused. At 3:58, why didn't Anna just play Nd7. That would threaten his queen and preventing his Nd6 move. His queen can then not take the pawn because it could be captured by either Anna's bishop or the king. This move would also provide cover long enough for Anna to slide her king over to d8. Then if he does play his Nd6 move, her pawn would capture it. Maybe I'm not thinking enough moves ahead, but seem like the obvious move to me (but I'm also not a 1200 rated player - much lower)

No Its not, at least thats shows he got RESPECT, teashtalkers have a LOT to learn from that
No Its not, at least thats a sign his parents have learned him MANNERS are respect för others. Trashtalkers has a LOT to learn from that.
When their humility is greater than your competence.
Ethan: I saw 14 million possible variations
Anna : In how many did I win?
Ethan: one...
underrated comment
Doctor strange!
in which universe?
i mean other universe maybe got better odds lol
When an 8 years old kid tells you there´s only one variation that doesnt lose, it´s prbly time to resign...
😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
absolutely
Kid could be the next Sorcerer Supreme 👁🕑
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes that means he knows them all and know the only way out is, and he is 8 😮 wow
Ethan is my new idol, i hope he never stops being this gentle!
😮😮😮
Unfortunately within 2 years he needs to focus on school exams so he won't have that much time to play chess, I just had lovely long conversation with his parents yesterday...

At 8 I was a prodigy in checkers
6:43 emotional damage (she was gonna shake hands😂😂)
😂
Lol😂
hahahha
Hahhahah😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
The fact that he knew her entire game worth of moves after 2 moves is mindblowing to me.
Yes true, but there is still room for being unorthodox. Moving the King forwards so early threw him. A little.
He is so kind and cute, Ethan please never change, You are a Prodigy but stay humble even in success. Two lovely person here 😊❤

He did blunder and she missed it. She should have taken the knight on B5.

1900 in 2 years is f*cking crazy. 1900 in 2 years at 8 years old is even more crazy.
less crazy, you learn more and more slowly as you age.

He missed a couple of killer moves but it didn’t matter, his position was so good, it was impossible to lose.
Now there's a player that knows his theory. Absolutely amazing at that age.

Anna's version of trash talk. "Ethan, how's school"?
Ethan reaches 1900 in 2 years and im struggling to reach 1300 for the past few years 😅. What a talent this boy is.
Nd5? He was just being savage and sweet. Loved the way he didn’t trash talk her but still bullied her 😂😂
What a pure love of chess that this wonderful child expresses.
Distracting the opponent with questions... 🤔 Could have worked but time was missing.
Wasn't that so Cute?! Haha! "How's Math Class?!" What a fun Match!
Could've worked if he was 14...
He is really brilliant, maybe he missed an opportunity where he could check the king with the knight and take the queen for free.
It's got to be scary playing little chess geniuses like that! You're brave to share!
Love Ethan, his parents must be so proud.
Anna you need to play more Chess with Ethan. This post is my absolute favourite.
i love how he was so polite and helpful but still kinda like "oof" thats gonna be a rough one for you
Bro won't be a trash talker like other kids , he's nice
great, wonderful, such a talented boy, I love your vids, best regards from southern Germany

Rule no. 1: If u see a kid in a tournament, RUN
“My rating is 2”
“…2000?”
“No. 2”
That white opening was nasty. He came uber aggressive and flustered her.
Getting outside of theory and making a few unorthodox moves threw him a little. This kid is a prodigy for sure!
He's so polite while ripping her in pieces.
