Your dad looks happier to be standing next to you on the podium than on his 2nd place finish. Nice work the last week and a piece. Congrats and keep chasing your passion.
CONGRATULATIONS! I am so proud of you!!!!!!!! It was YOU who got me into chess, and watching chess videos. Through your videos, I discovered the Botez sisters, and Gotham, and all the other great channels. I am ALWAYS rooting for YOU, Anna!!!!! Very very proud!
I came across your channel by accident and I absolutely love the sheer joy you get from playing Chess. It’s infectious and your parents are super cool! ❤
Agree 100% :) I used to be a chess player long ago but when i accidentaly saw few videos of Anna playing chess and this positive energy she made me addickt of chess again and i returned to play :)
You’re a winner Anna regardless of what happens on the chess board. Your smile and enthusiasm light up the chess world. You are inspiring many people to learn this game. Thanks and congratulations!
Way to go, Anna! I have to say this tournament has been some of my favorite content you've created. I hope you continue on this path as it really validates how good of player you are while still showing all that amazing passion you have. Also, I really enjoyed Pia commentating on your games! Your mom rocks! Subscribed!
Congrats Anna with your epic/stunning result and gaining so many Elo points is just icing on the cake!!! It has honestly been an inspirational journey following you at this chess tournament giving us all great content each and every day:) Thank you so much!!! Hope to see you in many more tournaments going forward.
Amazing job Anna! Thanks for taking us with you on this journey. It has been absolutely fantastic watching you thorough the whole tournament. Looking forward to see more of it in the future.
Congratulations to you and your dad! I have enjoyed watching these past few days. Thank you for taking the time to film and share your experience with us :D
Wonderful commentary of the 9 games that you played. Very instructive for sure. We have a saying in the states that says; "The apple doesn't fall far from the tree." I think your dad was very happy and proud of you too!
Congratulations! You're inspirational, and your enthusiasm is contagious. Keep at it! :) (Also, I think being able to share something like this chess tournament must have been very special to you and your father. Priceless experiences.)
I'm 52, and this lovely wee lass is a great ambassador. Also, even though I am going blind and old, guess who got 100 elo in the last month? It is never too late to love the game.
dear Anna. congratulations to both you and your dad and of course all the participants. But the real winner is your dad..that proud smile is priceless--- fathers recognize it immediately.
Wouldn’t it be weird if we found out that she cheated and since they are worried it will be a huge scandal, they paid other players to be silent because she is so important to chess popularity and bringing sponsors to their tournaments?
@@jamespacker9110you must be crazy, if you write such a thing. Seriously? Either you do have proofs or you must shut up!!!! What you did Is a crime, my friend. It will not save you saying that you talked hypotetically .
@@jamespacker9110 You are disrespecting the time and effort she dedicated studying chess for this tournament. Just learn to appreciate when someone does something good.
@@raffaelecafiero3608 it’s not a crime where I live unless they outlawed asking questions. Maybe they did but whenever someone asked them if they made it illegal to ask questions, they arrested them so none of ever found out. I never said she cheated nor do I think, much less have proof, that she cheated. Also, I’m not being serious. I thought the specificity of the question would give away that I was just messing around. Maybe I should’ve asked: wouldn’t it be weird if she was actually a alien from a planet rotating the star Vega and she came here specifically to win a tournament for best female chess player in Spain and she is going to fly back with the first 7 people that comment on this comment? Also, wouldn’t it be weird if she unhinges her jaw to eat medium sized mammals whole? Wouldn’t it also be weird if a lot of people came on here and white knighted a chess player?
Congratulations on your prize, well deserved. You have also done a wonderful job of promoting the love of chess. You have broadened the awareness of chess and the interest in chess by making your chess self so accessible. You are an inspiration to me and I am sure others. Thank you so much for sharing and I love the smiles :)
Awesome, congratulations Anna and to your Dad (and to your mum who was amazing on the stream) your whole family had such a successful tournament. Mon a sad note I’m going to miss waking up every morning to these new tournament videos. Absolutely loved the last week.
@@isaacong77 Super happy for the Family. Anna always 2nd guesses Herself with Her English. She should be more confident; if it's incorrect, someone might correct Her.
I like to see people like Anna go and play some classical games from time to time. Her analysis showed that she spent some time on these games. When they all play blitz we get 1 and 2 move threats and very little in terms of in-depth chess concepts. I don't even follow long blitz steamers much any more as I get very little out of the games.
Congrats!!!! You're beeming with that smile! It shows how sincerely happy this accomplishment has influenced you. Congrats again to you and dad! And thank you for the wonderful videos.
Good job. Your videos are fun because your personality and your smile are very infectious and genuine. I'm glad you took us with you on this tournament it has been fun and I hope you do something like this again.
Awesome to see you play each game. It was a real pleasure. Thank you for sharing this tournament with us. Keep pushing, I want to see a GM title next to your name one day!!!
Congratulations Anna. You really gave those of us who haven't played in multi-day tournaments a wonderful sense of what it would be like. I do feel inspired to go out and play and I'm going to make an effort to find a tournament I can play in soon. Your enthusiasm and chess teaching were so great!
You popped up in my feed a few days ago and I was hooked. I didn't really understand that I was watching a tournament but it was fun watching you. Certainly made for some compelling viewing. Congrats on placing 8th! Hope to see you again.
Im very happy for you Anna and I also want to thank you for all the time you put into these videos. My chess really improved and it's always such a joy to watch you. Keep on strivin' :)
It has been really fun to follow this tournament! Please let Pia know that her commentary has been spectacular as well, it really made the streams so much more exciting. I hope to see more content like this in the future!
I don't know why but this last ep makes me wanna cry. I am very happy for you, and ur dad, but I was spending my whole day just waiting for u to post new video abt this tournament, and new updates haha, and yeah i'm just sad it's over.
The vlogs are so good that they should be much longer. I would have loved to have seen more of the venue, interviews with friends and the behind the scenes with the arbiters etc. thanks a bunch.
This is my first time following a chess tournament this closely! Everyday I’d wait eagerly for you to upload to watch your recaps and mini vlog. Thank you for all your effort to film, do a post-game analysis and for your amazing energy and heart! Congratulations on your amazing results and win, you deserve it :)) It would be amazing if you can post a select few clips from your Mum’s commentary! I don’t have Twitch so feel like I’m missing out on all that content!
Congrats Anna . On top of this stupendous performance , hoping you got a WGM or at least WIM norm . Hope this performance inspires you to roar past the WGM norms . 😊
What an incredible performace in all the tournamet, Anna!. You played really well. Muy contento de que tu juego atrevido, fresco, valiente y con desparpajo te haya dado tan buen resultado. Además, tienes que estar super orgullosa de haber aguantado tan bien la presión, con gente a tu alrededor tan buena y sin ser una jugadora habitual de torneos presenciales. Bravo!
Congratulations Anna, you did so great! It was a blast watching you play so well, and having your mom's commentary. I really liked the vlog style you've done here. Hope you and your dad celebrate your successes!
Thank you for sharing everything in your tournament, including your thoughts about the games. You really learn a lot by watching your videos. Your mother, PIa does a phenomenal job of showing how a GM sees both sides of the board and all the move combinations that could happen moving forward. It is special the skill you have in explaining as well as playing so well.
Well done Anna, it literally could not have happened to a nicer person. Congratulations!!! You got 8th, your dad got 2nd, and your mother even had a brief appearance... truly a family affair 🙂
Congrats on the successful tournament! I really enjoyed this series (watched a fair amount of the livestreams too) so I hope you do another tournament before too long!
So proud of you!! Very glad you're satisfied with how you're playing again, you deserve to feel like the great player you are. Loved the video content too, thanks for keeping it up.
I love your attitude and your charisma and how you deal with other people and how you burn for a thing. Makes me smile alright. Keep on going and good luck!
Your dad must be so proud of you! Probably more proud of you than happy for himself. Congratulations!
she is not godlike but still.. gg anna. :D
i think so too her dad is always so sweet to her :)
@@TheLeopard2A6
She is still young and improving.
Thanks!
Your dad looks happier to be standing next to you on the podium than on his 2nd place finish. Nice work the last week and a piece. Congrats and keep chasing your passion.
I'm sure he is very proud, and rightly so.
Parents Juan and Pia have a lot to be proud of!
Ty Anna; hurray for a ❤ tournament. Saw 9 games
Yeah, as a father I know I'd be far more proud of my daughter being up there than I was for myself.
CONGRATULATIONS! I am so proud of you!!!!!!!! It was YOU who got me into chess, and watching chess videos. Through your videos, I discovered the Botez sisters, and Gotham, and all the other great channels. I am ALWAYS rooting for YOU, Anna!!!!! Very very proud!
It makes me feel good to see you win, because you're always so positive and it's just impossible not to like you. Congratulations so so much
the whole family element of this channel is so wholesome and positive. I love it.
Define wholesome.

Hey Anna, now that you're done covering your tournament. It would be cool to see some of your dad's games with his commentary
great suggestion
@@isaacong77 Super happy for the Family. Anna always 2nd guesses Herself with Her English. She should be more confident; if it's incorrect, someone might correct Her.
did your dad play the cow opening. I'm curious to know how this opening performs at tournament level
Top secret ?
