Hehe, the saying "like father like daughter", I mean the spanish Tal with play offering and a nice chessmate. Congratulations on the win :) Two bishop sac: Lasker 1889 Tarrasch 1914 Alekhine 1923 Rubinstein in 1925 Kasparov in 1983 Polgar 2003 Cramling 2022 Not bad to be on that list.
16:13 "She's so much material down" Funny that you said this in a position where you are actually 2 pawns down on the board. Those bishop sacrifices destroyed the king safety and gave you overwhelming piece activity which you and the engine naturally translated into a decisive advantage. Good game!
It's "Lasker's two bishop sac", from his game back in 1889. Similar thing Tarrasch did to Nimzo, back in 1914. but those sac's are always nice to see! 🙂 Congratulations!
I still remember a game played in India shortly after chess was invented, where two bishops were sacked. The unnamed player who sacked the bishops lost the game however, which is probably why that game is not remembered and even the players names are lost in time. You have to sack two bishops of the same colour after a minor promotion to prevent stalemate to really become immortal. ;)
@@BobbyFischer0000 Oh no I didn't realise I was dealing with sherlock Holms but fair enough what youve said goes without saying and isnt a revelation to anyone mr insightful. Put it this way if your manifestation of passion is a whole lot of complaining, drama and constant divergence away from chess into 'other content' then maybe the chess won't be quite as inspiring. Anyway my comment is praise for Anna where as your comment is more troll like. I won't be replying again cus this is really boring. Cheers mate
Chess is fun. With Anna it's even funner. And she's also good at explaining how expert players think so that even noobs like me can understand it to some degree.
Thank you for this game, you have a beautiful way to explain the game... your style fits my chess level better than other chess streamers... you take the time to explain the questions I would have. Great job!!! subscribed all now.
Inadvertent disadvantage of ... Nh8 : Anna forgot that this N existed. 12:55 "Either this is the most beautiful way of winning in the world ... or it's not." Taking lessons from agadmator, I see. But seriously, there is an omission at 8:20. What if Bh5? The best I can see is ... e4 followed by ... g5, which is good for black, but the game goes on.
You make chess fun to watch. That was wonderful. It's like watching a thriller movie when just as you think someone is safe something bad happens and they have to think fast to avoid the new danger.
I was watching your (Swedish team) games today. I was cheering when you initiated your aggressive attack. It was a couple of really nice sacrifices. Felt like you were putting all your eggs in one basket. Though I think you could have won a bit earlier. 🙂
This was a really funny game . Spectacular knight retreat to h8 , twin bishop sacrifice and in the end giving the opponent an opportunity to escape with an fortress . Glad Anna won .
Anna, nice game. What I really enjoy about your analysis is that you mention how your thought processes are during the game and how you may have miscalculated at times.
Again a fun and great recap, i think you're the most appreciable woman chess RUclipsr actually, love the way you describe and react so naturally but with clever thinking its just perfect ... Dont change anything and i hope you'll crush them all ;)
As a kid I used to sack my bishops often to put preasure on the castled king, but that was more a result of me always being in a rush than any actual tactical insight.
Lasker-Bauer Amsterdam 1889 I had to immediately open to compare. Perhaps somewhere your tactic puzzle training included a position from that game. The double B sac has become a theme like back rank mate, though much rarer. Good eye memory for pattern. Congrats and go Sweden go.
Anna, congrats for winning 👏🏽You are clearly inspired for double bishop sacrifice from the game of Aron Nimzowitsch - Siegbert Tarrasch, two opening inventing grandmasters. Good home preparation.
GG ! Anna Thanks. I like to play ...d3 against that white set up. Some morra players a little bit underestimate this move or dont study it. ...d3 one of my jedi mind tricks. Good luck for you next round !
It ain’t over til it’s over. I might have played the two bishop sac, but I would never have had the stamina to play out the complications afterwards. Dramatic sacs never get into the history books when you lose 3 moves later, so well done!
I got the chance to be live for Round 7. I saw both Anna and Pia from far off. Overall it was an amazing experience, for someone who only started playing chess 3 years ago, going to this event made me fall in love with the game even more. Unfortunately, I couldn't follow the games because they weren't shown on a screen and you aren't allowed to take your mobile phones in the hall. This was the only/major downer of the event because you can only spectate games that are close to the gantry.
At 15:33 if she goes Rook -> E5 instead of B5 doesn't she win after plowing through Bishop -> G5? Cool setup with the double bishop sacrifice, but it looks more like luck than a deliberate strategy.
Was your best move ever the sacrifices of both bishops? If so I admit I cringed both times yet it did expose the king with plenty of power pieces available to check the king multiple ways. It worked. I do think you missed a great move when you noted that the queen had literally no safe spaces left yet you did not attack with that knight buried in the corner.
As a Smith morra player myself (all be it a rubbish 1) I have to say I hate facing the alapin line although pretty sure the Smith morra champion 🏆 Marc Essaman got a draw against Anand in this line which considering he's rated about 500 elo below Annand is still pretty good going
I also sometimes forget what I have, but I lost some pieces from my chess set years ago, so I'm playing with the top hat and boot from Monopoly. It all get's very confusing. Good news is, if I land on a corner square I collect $200.
The best move of my life was in a Bishop endgame in the first round of the U1800 section of the World Open a decade ago. FEN is "8/1p3p2/p1p1k1p1/2P1P3/3B1PKP/P7/1P1b4/8 b - - 2 35" I just put my bishop on a square luring my king's opponent to a central square on his fourth rank to attack said bishop, when it seemed that the bishop had nowhere to go without me losing queenside pawns, but in seeminngly anti-positional fashion I retreated my bishop to a square where it could be traded off and my queenside structure would be smashed, but his King would be too far away from my Kingside majority to stop me from getting a decisive passer. Same applied to the way the game actually proceeded with my opponent refusing the bishop trade.
Esta partida fue una de las más divertidas que vi en vivo. Muchas gracias por contagiarnos con tu entusiasmo y actitud hacia la mejora continua. Solo espero que hagas más videos en español.

Btw queen vs rook +pawn is a winning endgame bc there is zugzwang preventing the rook from staying guarded by the pawn. You can "stalemate" the king forcing pawn or rook to move and get closer with the king. It takes pretty long though.
It's refreshing to see greatness and blunders all in the same game and explained so openly
Congrats Anna! I'm really enjoying this series. It's great to have a personal window on the Olympiad!
Funny to see you here, City Beautiful.
Hehe, the saying "like father like daughter", I mean the spanish Tal with play offering and a nice chessmate. Congratulations on the win :)
Two bishop sac:
Lasker 1889
Tarrasch 1914
Alekhine 1923
Rubinstein in 1925
Kasparov in 1983
Polgar 2003
Cramling 2022
Not bad to be on that list.
Brilliant.
don't forget Taimanov - Shassin 1978.

Annaas combinaation is actually original. I know both the Lasker- Bauer and Tarasch's game against Nimzowitch.
And I know all of these players’ names because of openings

Love your analysis and insights into your games. One can learn so so much!
one of the hardest things to do in chess is to win a "won" game :) well done!

Anna is in check.

chess popularity in Sweden.
She is a star!!
how the heck would you have won earlier except for the tiny mistakes she said?
"Though I think you could have won a bit earlier" Did you think that before or after she said exactly that verbatim in the video?

Amazing job Anna ! Beautiful win, and I love the joy that you radiate in your videos , clearly you love the game ! G.

10:12 Why not Bxh2+??
Good stuff! Double bishop sac!!! Stunning! Thanks! Totally making up for Johan Stigefeldt crashing his motorcycle 11 million times.
I am starting to see a theme to these recaps. "I am winning then I made a mistake."
At 15:33 if she goes Rook -> E5 instead of B5 doesn't she win after plowing through Bishop -> G5?
Cool setup with the double bishop sacrifice, but it looks more like luck than a deliberate strategy.
Anna: I just wanted to checkmate her
Me: Good plan
You are such a positive and gracious person. Thank you for imparting your knowledge and making our days better.
You have such a contagious energy. Really makes me smile.

Are you preparing your openings / games with your mom or only alone?

11:33 cant the bishop take h2 then queen is hanging?
Yeah the 2 bishop sac is a famous one! Still takes guts to play it over the board in a serious game.
you played in great style, in the spirit Emanuel Lasker, who sacrificed two bishops in a similar manner.
Felicitaciones por tu gran triunfo, Estas aportando mucho a tu equipo. Suecia sigue mostrando un nivel muy bueno.

Do you always play in defense?
Why are you afraid to continue attacking?
Love ur recaps! Congrats :D
Nice moves!! Good luck with the next round. ;)
Amazing how difficult chess is, being able to defend even this. Imagine how it works at the 2500+ level.
Dang that's a nice move Anna! Even after you pointed it out I didn't see the idea lol
Nh8.. plus double Bishop sacrifice. What a game. 😊
Very fun game, fantastic analysis, I feel like I just played it myself!
question, why isn't Bxh2+ a good move? it wins a queen, but she instead plays Be6 attacking the queen and losing a pawn
Cool game. Good commentary. Good luck with the other rounds.
Wow what a scrappy game, love it, also encouraged by the occasional blunder and recovery, so it's not just me that does that!

So which one was the best move then?

The game is off a half move from there? Do over?
smh..
Great well done thanks for the insight!
when i think i played my best move ever and look it up on the engine it turns out to be a blunder :(
Btw queen vs rook +pawn is a winning endgame bc there is zugzwang preventing the rook from staying guarded by the pawn. You can "stalemate" the king forcing pawn or rook to move and get closer with the king. It takes pretty long though.
I've seen the move realtime on your Twitch, amazing game Anna
