![Natanael Cano - Ya Te Olvidé [Official Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/xLig8I91SJQ/mqdefault.jpg)
why is everyone expecting from him to be polite and to have a small talk. he came for a chess game. he won it. job done.
you can be a human being along the way.
wtf, are you saying he was not human ? he smiled couple of times. should he be flirty so we anna fan boys still can be happy allthough she lost?. come on man. dude just played perfect chess. not more not less.
It cost him nothing to be kind, chess is for gentlemen.
@@gutenachtworte they want him to strike up small talk and flirt so that they can project and call him a weirdo
@@firexsun3495 today, women don't want gentlemen (they say so). Gentlemen are done playing gentleman when women are behaving like they do in these times. I am not talking about Anna but about the generell/ standard women in our society -> fake strong, independent, bla bla
I like the way he behaved. Not like a douche but also not like a gentleman.
I know some people are upset at him not being 'polite' but i don't see that he did a lot wrong. He shook her hand at the beginning and end with a smile at the end. He isn't obligated to stick around and talk afterwards. If he wants to go and reset for the next round, that's completely fair enough. I've encountered this player Daniel Fernandez in my local chess scene and he seems a friendly enough guy- there's a lot of unjustified hate in these comments.
Finally someone with common sense. Maybe he also didnt want to talk in front of a camera, or he had other places to be. I dont understand all the "impolite" comments about him.
Finally someone has some sense
No one is saying he's not polite. I read most comments. Why do you lie something to make your point seem more relevant ?
@@luizfelipemedeiros7506 I was here when the video was first posted. 1 of every 3 comments were about her opponent being rude. They've fallen down a lot further now.
"Hey, your next match will be on a million subscriber youtube channel where hundreds of thousands will evaluate your every eye move! Make sure to be relaxed, helpful, and nice or you'll get flamed and made out to be an asshole! You may just like to play chess and be a introvert, so don't be shy!"
I tried to be a GM too ! I looked a lot at the ceiling while palying my blitz game, but I lost on time...
😂😂😂 i’m gonna do that from now on…at least i’ll have an excuse
That's because they are not actually look around rather going into their memory bank....it only appears that they are looking around.
Chess is a memory game.
i'll try that too lol
He shook hands before and after the game, and even smiled once or twice.
He did nothing wrong…
maybe you also don't have basic manners
@@realplonk What exactly are you referring to? I mean he could have been less abrupt but he does not need to do skittles with her if he doesn’t want to.
I would argue, Anna shook his hand but he didn't shake hers. In the USA, a handshake like that will loose you the job before you even get to the interview.
True, but I don't think the GM was Anglo.
He didn't really shake her hand, he kept his hand completely flat both times...rude...or germaphobe, one or the other...
He seemed polite enough, if you talk to much to this woman she won’t be quiet she’s chatterbox.
Daniel did not let his guard down and let Anna play the Flirt Sacrifice strategy which is deadly for males over 13
He came, he conquered, he left
I know he is a Grandmaster 2500+ but that was very impressive indeed. Anna not Qd8, but Qd7 don't know if it would have been better just looked at it quickly, I think it works from instinct.
That guy played his part perfectly. By both image and personality, the word 'chess' is synonymous with 'competitive introvert', and the name 'Anna Cramling' with 'charming extrovert who makes chess interesting and fun'. Thanks!
He just came to play. Don’t bring this introvert bullshit for him. Some people just don’t small talk when they are competing.
@@macdonaldnnadi Whatever his actual personality is, the image of 'no talk just compete' sounds pretty introverted to me. Maybe verbal descriptions of players and pidgeon holing them into categories demeans the beauty or appeal of the game for some. That's understandable, not extroverted, but understandable.
@@bentz98125 Some people talk, when you talk to them... She didn't talk either here... If I go to the dentist and nobody talk to me and just do their job, I don't gonna talk either. But if they talk to me, they need to have the rest of the day off... Okay, maybe that's why nobody talk to me -.-
And by the way, a lot of people don't like that camera crap. I mean, they accept because they don't want to be rude and it's for chess, after all. But dude, you are recorded to the end of humanity! You say ONE thing not perfect, one move, your hand, scratch your nose, whatever you do.... Your OVER.
@@XxKidnoffxX You're absolutely right. It surprises me there isn't more resistance to video recording in public. As a viewer I enjoy watching but it would take someone like Anna to persuade me to be in one. I'm far too self conscious to even compete in a chess tournament. Doubly so if someone streamed it. But on the other hand it's no accident professional athletes are contractually required to give press conferences. If a tree falls in the forest and no one sees or hears it, it didn't happen as far as public promotion is concerned.
@macdonaldnnadi that's the definition of introvert
I never lost against a Grandmaster in chess
Me either ❤
Did you ever play a GM? 😉
...and I will never loose against one 😊
And you've never lost against me either. So I suppose that makes me a Grandmaster.
I also didn’t lose again a grandmaster 😄😄😄😉
You're great Anna, your honesty in self reflection is admirable! Great channel!
yes anna i played 3 times a grandmaster .2 times christian gabriel and online fabiano curuana .chrisian was about 10 or 11 years old and i felt like playing against a wall.the same feeling i had later online against fabiano .it was a great joy playing and watching him
What’s your elo? I’m a 1800
@@alexanderassaf8820 i have no elo it happened 40 years ago in a blitztournament when i played in the c class .i had an INGO of 150 about
What a match, fun to watch! The Grandmaster is intimidating indeed. Good commentary, and the music you choose is so sad, but proud!
love your vids! keep up the work
It’s really interesting to watch you do a blitz game commentary as I’ve mostly watched your classicle game reviews! I enjoyed it as well ☺️
He didn't want distractions. He came to destroy.
Or how about simply showing a minimal level of civility.
@@Roberto-REMEperhaps you should be civil and not demand everyone you encounter bend to your will and feel like you're entitled to someone else's mannerisms. That's far more rude than anything this polite gentleman did. If someone didn't want to engage in small talk or flirt so they can get clicks and likes, then they have that right. He did nothing rude or indecent. Again...your attitude is far more egregious and impolite. People these days feel like they're entitled to everything and it's disgusting.
@@Roberto-REME Which he did.
@@Roberto-REMEhow about you shaaat aap?
In the 80s in Romania the Grandmasters played only in closed tournaments or in team matches. In such a team match I was able to play against a GM. I managed to draw with
perpetual check but then I lost to all IM or FM. Thank you for the video, it was instructive!
This was a learning experience, certainly. Thank you for this upload.
Brand new subscriber here! Love this video. I love chess but I only play against friends and such, so I'm as amateur as it gets. I don't really have the ability to follow super complex moves in real time in quicker games like this (it's fine if I'm given the time to analyze the board, though). The way you explain your moves, the reasoning behind them and the match as a whole, was fantastic. Thanks for the video, definitely looking forward to watching more stuff like this :)
Nice presentation , Anna ! I have had the chance to face some grandmasters over the board. My first attempt was a draw after being almost lost from the opening on a simul . Next year played again on simul another , was losing but i had a chance to draw on a rook endgame. 3rd attempt was on a blitz , got a promising position, ruined it and lost very easily. Its very nice having very strong opposition where the opponent is "forced" to take the game . The weaker side always gains something. Apart from experience, you test your openings prep at the max level possible
I only ever had the honour of playing with one Grandmaster, in 1971, who happened to be world champion at the time! Will never forget it.
You played either played Boris Spassky or Bobby Fischer?
@@reyhaangehani1773 If it was 1971, then it was Boris Spassky (if we assume he's referring to "the" world champion).
@@reyhaangehani1773 Or maybe it was just he's grand father who lied to him...
Don't psyche yourself out with things that don't matter. Him looking around "like a grandmaster would" has no bearing on the game. He knew exactly what he was doing. Focus on Anna, not the other person. You are doing great Anna. Part of the learning process at that level of play. Just know we are here to support you, Anna. You are still so very young for that level of play. Maturity and discipline will come in time. I'm sure your parents are proud of you just like we are.
She was not looking at him during the game and was focused. Those comments were made after the game while watching the recording. It's not like we're listening to her thoughts mid game.
He was actually very polite. That fact that someone is arguing he wasn't polite is a symptom of the idiocy of this channel.
This channel's still fine, but the comments are going to hell as it becomes better known.
I just kept seeing that bishop sitting there doing nothing. In my head I was yelling bishop! Bishop! Move the bishop! Haha. Great match.
She left him in a useless position.
Good demonstration of how strong GMs are. It looked like all of your moves were quite logical, but they so easily somehow get a dominant position
its always crazy to watch. they just little by little keep their position strong, and then pounce at the perfect moment. Even if you can manage to get any advantage, in the words of Danya (i think) "you have to kill us at least 3 times"
His parting words of wisdom will forever inspire me.
At the end of the video, not only were you and your opponent (your smile / humor about this is great) opening with the cow but it looks like the guy to your left is also setting up to play the cow. I really appreciate your videos. You have a great spirit and you have encouraged me to start playing chess!
Also the board to the left of that as well
I've never even SEEN a GM. I was never rated, but played around 18-1900. About 30 years ago I played a NM (2200+) a 5 hour game in a Air Force Base regional tournament. We got down to pawns and a King. After the game, he showed me a King move that would have gotten me a draw. Even though I lost the game, it was the best game I ever played. I am now 72... my game started going downhill at about 45. Back in my day, GMs were like rock gods... no RUclips, no internet, just pictures in magazines. Nowadays on RUclips, GMs seem to be a-dime-a-dozen. But I haven't lost my bearings, I KNOW how big they are. Hats-off to all who show up here. RUclips for President! Thanks Anna.
I love the videos with your commentary.
I played a Danish GM in RD 1 of a local (NZ) tournament and gained the advantage -- it was a standard game -- but he spent a lot of time and his time kept dropping to less than 3 minutes and then less than 2 seconds etc...I couldn't offer a draw, he knew he was lost in effect, but I fantasized some fantastic idea he might have, and made a quick move...then his game was easier....not winning but I had lost the big edge....I played the Rubinstein against 1 c4 and he went for a b4 idea as White...He was good about the game, he won, but it was an experience. Very exciting even though I lost....
she is such a sweetheart lol I feel like her confidence is her key to winning every match
Confidence is good and important but it won't get u to win against a GM.
omg I love chess! Thanks for the awesome content!
7:13 What was that handshake bro 😂💀
Once. In a small Swiss tournament in Chicago 1979. I saw that if I won my first two games (I did) I would get paired against Raman ... Ramen .. Ram .. Djindjidashvili, just like it sounds (your spelling may differ). A classical V. G. Gambit (von Goom Gambit), similar to Volga Gambit, in that I was a pawn down after 7 moves.
Up until this game, I had played 1. d4 about as often as Bobby Fischer prior to his 1972 match with Boris. Main difference to Volga Gambit is that I had white and absolutely no compensation for not knowing the move order.
IM totally new to chess ,just barley know the rules but loving these games with the play by play you provide. I too am trying to understand chess etiquette and game attitude. thanks for a fun and educational time . tom
Well narratted Anna .
I have played this guy, he was really pleasant. He was very encouraging after the game, though I lasted fewer moves than Anna.
What's his name
Daniel Fernandez
I once played blitz against a GM
I really dont know chess, but this video was fascinating! With the analysis of the guy and the music I just had to watch it to the end :) Well played anyway, Anna :)
Nice game Anna, I agree I think your nerves got the best of you.
4:40 your plan was solid, knight f4 you went for that line it looked great.
5:00 the panic >< you had a lot of pressure and build up for the long dark diagonal.
I’m think knight f4, rook f4, rook f6 or dsb d6 all looked like moves to better serve that initial plan ><
The moment I start thinking I have to defend 1 minor piece rather than continue building up the attack, is often the turning point from a winning position to losing one ><
Blocking his dsb paved they way for a king side attack and pressure build up, but you fought for middle and removed the congestion that highly benefitted you
I was playing against international master John Donaldson in a simultaneous of only 10 people. Soon it got down to only 4 of us.
I felt incredibly lucky because I got to play an extremely complicated brand new variation of the Benoni as white. I looked so complicated he spent the most of his time on my game. Being only around 1900 though, it was way too complicated for me. So I felt I had to exchange a few pieces to come to a near endgame. If I had only looked at the next move, I would never had done that, for it instantly loses to a queen enterening the 7th. You think a rook on the 7th is losing for the most part. A QUEEN demands instant resignation!
Which I did.
He played the queen move with a loud
"AHA!!"
Well. . .at least that told me he was sweating a little😂!
I played Var Akobian in a 30 player simul and then in a 5 minute blitz in a bar. Of course I was demolished both times. He was very friendly.
yesterday I disabled ratings, and jumped in an
I love checkers such a good game to watch these two play
This is why I avoid the championship/open sections. There's a reason why there are rating sections e.g. reserve/booster, championship/open sections, or open, U2200, U2000, U1800, U1600, etc. Saw Alex score 8.5/9 at the Sardinia chess festival in the U2000 section (Open B). A sub 2200 competes in a field of senior masters, GMs, and super GMs wouldn't stand a chance. I wouldn't even think of competing in open sections of any USCF event, or any OTB event back in my high school years. That game was hard to watch as he easily exploited every mistake she made and became a one sided game.
It's scary how simple he made it look
Yes, I've played a few. Drew GM Lars Karlsson in blitz in my youth. To the surprise of everyone basically (I was rated around 2000 at the time).
Grandmasters have the moves in their head. That is why they will look up and see the chess pieces in their mind.
This GM not being polite did not even come to my mind, he was polite.
As a 14 year old boy I once played against a grandmaster, Jan Hein Donner, it was a simultaneously game. The local organiser offered fl 7,50 if you would get a draw, and fl 15,00 if you would beat him. after 8 or 9 moves i thought what the hell and offered him a draw, he looked at me for a few seconds, started to laugh and shook my hand!
Hope you come back Stronger in your next game Anna that was a tough game especially at the end not many options as he had a strong attack going on around your king hope you picked up on something to avoid that happening again
I played a grandmaster, but I blew it and he escaped with a draw.
Anna you played one heck of a game don't let this discourage you at all this is just something you can learn from. Plus don't forget that you have faced Grandmasters like Aman before and won so the gifts and graces for you to get to the next level are there.
He never shook her hand. He just reached his hand out. She shook his hand only.
Wow! That was fun to watch.
Just trying to get out of 1700 I can appreciate a grandmaster's mental prowess.
Just following this channel a couple of weeks. I didn't even notice youre first language isn't English. I love chess and i teach it to my son.
(We are level 10 i guess)
It would be an honour to play against a grandmaster like you. I would lose against your cow-opening. Mindbogling! Have nice games and enjoy the journey.
She is just a WFM bro!
Even better than a GM, I faced a GF! - I remember playing with my grandfather when I was a little child. Like 35 years ago... Good times!
You faced a girlfriend!! DAMN
He seems like a fun guy
I've never played a grandmaster but I have been absolutely crushed by two different IMs.
You know, you've achieved your goal. After a lifetime of being around chess and loving chess (I'm 40), watching your videos is the only thing that has truly made me confident enough to want to PLAY chess myself. I even bought myself a beautiful chess set for my birthday. So, you have gotten at least one person playing chess over here in America. (We have our Swedish heritage in common, though. :)) Best to you friend. J.
Man.. this dude's vibe is like a cold assassin doing his job. Fast, clean cut, effective, then disappear...
I played a grandmaster once. I resigned at move 8.
Wow, that's tough Bruce! I lasted till move 12 (v Jon Speelman). It felt like taking on the mafia with a water pistol.
Awesome game, great vid!
The fade to black and white :D
People on here are so quick to bash the GM bc he didn't wanna engage in small talk and flirt with her so she can get clicks. That's apparently rude..but conveniently forget she abandoned a game she AGREED to play. Up until she found out magnus was in the park. Then she asks to ditch him and the game and go see and play magnus instead. Which i honestly don't even remember if she even found that guy to play their game after she ditched him. The double standard in the comments is unreal.
people are simping
she got a whuppin', no cutey chat giggles or flirting just a whuppin'
Love the Meuves when you play Chass!!
The mistake was the move threating the knight instead of moving the bishop in 4:26? 🤔
Looked like just another day in the office for the GM
I played a grandmaster once removed. I played my dad, and he played I want to say Mikhail Botvinnik, because he visited his work, and my dad was the strongest player there. This was in USSR a while ago. I was a kid, and my dad died a while back, but I remember him telling me about it, and he had a signed chessboard, but I'm not 100% it was Botvinnik.
Lesson learned: never be too creative playing against a GM, in particular, do not mess up pawn structure.
ehmmm, I dont think that is a good lesson, it depends on the position, sometimes it is in your favour to mess up your pawn structure
@@user-ym8if1jf3l i said it applies to when playing against a GM. Same reason as you shouldn't sacrifice your rook for a knight when playing a GM, despite that such a sacrifice could be good.
If I was playing, I might get distracted that the ceiling in this room is clearly being held up by giant Frosted Flakes.
Anna great for the game, win or lose. Keep posting 😎
It's super interesting that he looks like he's playing the game in his head, where you are totally focused on the board. So that's what grandmasters do ... hunh!
Nice video. Loved how he played. It would be nice to see the video again with is command. Why he did what he did. ❤😉👍
I have played against a GM, I tried to attack, but it got nowhere, and I lost. Similar story when I played an IM.
What’s more devastating was the fact that he got up and left, for sure she wanted a rematch with the grand master.
Anna ,
You are a great player and every
game you play against difficult opponents
improves your mental skills,
concentration and virilization.
Ask your Mother how often emotion gets in Her way and
ask her if her game is more the forest than the trees.
I am sure you know the quote "He?She couldn't see the forest for the trees.
Cheers,
Rik Spector
Somethings it seems about his playing you. He seems to know your moves whether watched some of your past games or knew some of the moves you made, from watching and studying the moves. He has a quick mind knowing moves ahead of play that you could make, then knowing how to counter back. Another thing was not using your bishops to help with the knights or queen on the open pawns.
What does it mean when he was looking around like the way grandmasters do? Is it because they memorize pieces and placement so well, they don't even need to look at the board? He seemed a little bored and was all business -- like taking his time before pressing the clock after his first move and quickly leaving afterwards.
Aww well played AnnaPanna. 👍
I was confused as I've taken pictures of Daniel when he was a kid and thought he was Singaporean. Then I looked up Google aand his father was Singaporean and he was born in England but lived in Singapore for most of his life but went back in England for studies.
I actually like the music in this video because it felt more ominous that way and it made me feel like going against him was a much larger task and it was.
It felt like you were confused at the beginning and played reactive and defensively but I understand why. He was somewhat unconventional and seemed to have a game plan and he executed it perfectly. You tried which is all you can do, Anna. Keep going :)
2:45 You have a fantastic line after 9...0-0 10. Nxc6 bxc6 11 Bxc6? Ng4! and, for example 12.g3 (Qf3 is best) Qxc6 13. Rxe7 d4! and the black bishop will become a monster on the a8-h1 diagonal. Instead 11. Be5 Qb7 12. Be2 Bf5 is about equal. Yeah I used an engine.. but something seemed off..
The last guy began with the cow opening 😀
ANNA made quick moves (loved it anyhow).
hope you feel better.
Any player 2000 or more in blitz rating is very strong. It's hard to play blitz against strong players we've never played before.
That’s exactly the move I predicted!
Anna, deberias jugar una partida con Faustino Oro, quiero verla.
Jonathan Schrantz defeats Stockfish using the Urusov Gambit.
I actually Googled, has a human ever beaten Stockfish, and I find this video from 3 yrs ago.
Using only 1 cpu and making moves Stockfish didn't wanna play and he calls this a win.
No human has ever beaten Stockfish.
Your thoughts Anna and your mom & dad can weigh in. ♥
03:30, when you castled, he knew he had won and that was the last time he was interested in the pieces on the board lol
Those were anything but a handshake
You are Gold Anna Love the Stevie Nicks voice.
amazing game, amazing commentary - GM is GM, you did great :)
Almost inhuman, he looks like he relied on intuition without even trying… his subconscious played for him.
This was the first time I have seen someone play to crush the propensity for black to castle to the left. I am a novice. Can someone explain what she could have done differently as she took control of the center in her mind but then was left with no good options the further she advanced.
And again, at the end of this one, a double COW, hilarious!!
I played a Russian Grandmaster in a quick chess tournament in Austin Texas in 2000 (i believe). I couldn't believe I was paired with him.
I was having a great tournament and he was not, therefore the pairing in the final round. He was not happy playing me, as I was an unknown. I played e4; and he did Sicilian, so I went smith-morra. At the time I was rated about 1950 and was somewhat unfamiliar with the line, but played it anyway. He spanked me hard and took a piece in what I learned later was a well known trap. So I lost in about 25 moves
He has a t-shirt "Омладински шаховски клуб Параћин", which is a chess club from the town Paraćin in Serbia. Not so important for the game but a fun fact for the people from Serbia. :)
excelente el tipo muy educado.
eso es lo bueno del ajedrez y del mundo que cada uno tipo su tipo de ajedrez asi como personalidad.
aunque a muchos no le guste ciertas personalidades solo te queda cerrar el culo y acostumbrarte por que el mundo es asi, la gente no se puede acomodar a tus preferencias, dejen de ser niños llorones.
incluso me gusta la gente que va hacelo lo tuyo y se va o que tienen una personalidad mas fuerte o hasta arrogante. la victoria te da el aval
I also never lost against a GM
