Simon is definitely NOT a budget GM, I've seen the prices of his products and services, don't know what Alex was smoking when she said that... but she can stick that in her pipe and smoke it! 😉
Do you mean she was loose out of the opening? Because she was anything but lost- ESP considering the amount of traps she set up for Simon. She was playing like a GM.
I used to play, to see chess played at this level is so awesome. My knowledge of the game today is so much greater because of the internet. Thank you for posting this.
Humility is this, it makes the great even greater. I made a review about touching one piece and playing with another, Botez corrected it and continues to win! Congratulations!!
Ahhhhh, a frind of mine played the Millner-Barry Gambit against Miller-Barry without even knowing he was playing Sir Stuart (thats what you get for arriving late at a chess game!)
Botez gambit works. At 5:09 knight instead takes knight should go to c5 discover attack on the queen. If king d2, defending queen, rook to f2 check. Queen blocks it's free queen as white knight would be pinned to the king. So king must move away of the 2nd rank and knight takes queen for free, black is back the material with so much better position and active pieces, knight attacking pawn and threatening forks, rooks coming to 2nd rank and so on.
It's a nice thought, but no. After Nc5, the queen blocks, and it's not a free queen. Black never has a second attacker aimed at e2, and doesn't have enough checks to drive the king away. If rook takes the queen on e2, the king just takes the rook back, and White is ahead by a full rook.
@@glenm99 so knight to g3. If king connecting rooks d2, than rook f2 check, king has to go back to the first rank, knight takes rook in the corner for free. With so much initiative and plenty threats this should be winning for black.
nevermind I put it to the engine, winning for white. In that variation knight is not even free as queen check scoop up knight in the corner and it's not even the best move xD
Sammy had her queen with a discovered check/attack on the queen with his knight! I can’t believe he missed that chance to even up things after HIS queen was taken earlier!
Humildade é isto, torna os grandes mais grandes ainda. Fiz uma crítica sobre tocar em uma peça e jogar com outra, a Botez corrigiu isto e continua vencendo! Parabéns!!
3:58 Now bRf8, bBc5 and bNe4 all attack f2, and wK is still at e1. Shades of Légall. But BxQd1 is actually best, and Black doesn't have a winning attack.

Legendary GM ,by far the most entertaining GM I ever seen , he is being polite by sacrificing his Queen as a British ! Lol thanks for game simon
who won
Cheers GM Ginger! I have been following you for years
AAWWW Ginger GM you could have taken her queen right back. With a discovery, but didnt.
The Williams Gambit: knock your pint over so you don't have to play out a losing position
Lmao
It's not a gambit because it always works
LMAO
hahhahah nice one
@@drakeking9628 it's a gambit because you lose your pint
Cute, witty, clever.. just the full package! Oh, and Alexandra is fun too!
And an awesome beard! Simon's is decent as well.
🤣🤣
Hate Alexandra
@@bbkhrn619 why?
@@bbkhrn619 Why?
I love the good natured trash talk. It was very entertaining!
Sounded like wholesome siblings.
"Just a Budget Grandmaster"
"Is your best friend Ben Finegold?"
Classic.
id go as far as to guess Simon and Benjamin are good friends irl hence they trashtalk about each other all the time over the internet
Alexandra was lost out of the opening so she was right in her comfort zone.
so true!
Damn

@@justintharp5652 She was playing like a woman.
@@MrTheMark21 Yeah a mean one 😂😉
top tier content as always
i love you, the self spot, the ultra British trash talk, and the absolute skill that comes with it.
The crowd cant stop bringing you more drinks, they know you well Simon lol

Budget Grandmaster just means great value!
The junior ginger watching the game is a highlight. He must be a fan.
GG
Simon you shared with us a beautiful chess moment, chess can be popular and fun, chess belong to everyone
when your dad's trying to video discreetly but doesn't realize the flash is on
Rook takes beer.
Hahahaha
damn simon without a mouse is a force haha
Looked like you both enjoyed the banter and the chess.
Being a Budget Grandmaster means you bring a Lidl more value to your game.
I laughed germanly
Wichting und Richtig?
Alexandra Botez: *you dare use my own spells against me, Potter?*
a really relaxed atmosphere, wonderful!
I'll bet Nigel Short never attempted the Spilled Beer Gambit Accepted.
Mickey Adams at the Biel Interzonal was playing blitz with Jon Speelman and not a drop was spilt!
"It's tea with milk, you should know that!"
"It's okay, I'll cheers with coffee"
I love how the Ben Finegold beef is still there! We need to see a rematch Simon
Glass sacrifice on 05:54 aahahahaha
"Miles-Kasparov 1970" was even more dubious than Simon's j'adoube.
I was about to comment on that. Kasparov would have been just seven years old at that point.
@@davidcopson5800 "So he could not have been a full student at the chess school." said Arnold Rimmer.
Huge Ginger GM fan. Love his courses, but when she called him a “ budget GM” I laughed long and loud.
what does budget GM mean?
@@Nathan00at78Uuiu LOL. She's making a joke at his expense. It means that he's a "cheap" GM or a "fake" GM.
The good 'ol Brit banter. Thanks for the upload Simon!
I've heard worse from Americans while playing chess on RUclips videos.
Humility is this, it makes the great even greater. I made a review about touching one piece and playing with another, Botez corrected it and continues to win! Congratulations!!
i cant believe she started trash talking at 11 seconds into the video XD
turned into anarchy chess towards the end there
Ginger Gambit. Spill your beer to pause the game.
Love this video.. Omg Simon is the best.
Simon played nice this game, while Alexa went for the jugular. Hope the table talk continues, we expect it.
Andrea?????
@@bftjoe Thanks Joe. No idea how I wrote Andrea after watching Alex.
@@SpaceCadet4Jesus Alexa? I’ve only heard her go by Alex and Alexandra
Perhaps in the beginning he played nice but certainly not towards the ending😅♟️
great vid, TY
If you cant forget your loss for hours, it's a sign you are improving.
3:48 Summary of Botez' chess career.
lmao this is much more entertaining than tournament chess
dude filming in the back with the flash on is cracking em up
This banter was legendary
I love it when chess players smack talks eachother.
My man got PLAYED!
Thats why I love this game with a passion
Thanks very much you’ve teach me a lot of things.. gingerGM
Ahhhhh, a frind of mine played the Millner-Barry Gambit against Miller-Barry without even knowing he was playing Sir Stuart (thats what you get for arriving late at a chess game!)

Guy with red jacket so disrespectful with that flash mate

wow Alexandra is an absolutely ruthless ball buster
at 5:54 GM makes a horrible blunder beer gets spilled
Bruh with the flash camera on the whole match 👀 someone get they mans
3:57 "Oh no - my queen!
"Well those who can't do, teach."
Time scrambles OTB are so chaotic they don't even look like chess anymore.
it was the equivalent to a mouse slip in real life.
Possibly the most entertaining GM in chess.
This is how all chess games should end. Massive explosion and launching alcohol at children
English people are so friendly well done
Did I just witness Chess Omnislash
White Clearly Cleaned his Clock!! Nice one Alex!
It's the ginger from Godders!
He got anxious
What a game
Love the trash talk!
This is Battersea Chess Club
The William Gambit : "that's a really good competition ain't it right?"
4:19
Black Bf2 is up for immense discovery
I bet she talked him into investing in Luna
I feel like 14. .. Bf2+ would have collected a fair bit of material.
Humildade é isto, torna os grandes mais grandes ainda. Fiz uma crítica sobre tocar em uma peça e jogar com outra, a Botez corrigiu isto e continua vencendo! Parabéns!!
Where's the chessboxing video, Alex and Andrea?
At the end it looked like one of my games
Ginger GM destroyed her opening completely!
Oo er missus.
He had it so early
"Those who can't do teach"
Well that's classy.
down a beer glass is -15 in this position iirc
Harry and Freddie were distracted
Can anyone tell me why he didn’t move knight to f2 to fork the rook and the Queen
commenting so I'll get tagged for the answer
I guess if NF2 then NF6 then RF6 then QD5 with check getting out of the fork
Quite difficult to follow both the game and the trashtalking at the same time but it's worth the effort.
Legit Viking vs Queen of Gambit
That’s how most of my chess games end as well…
Friendly game. A nice cup of tea and a breakfast beer. It is England after all. LOL
This woman doesn't seem English!
"Aww, canadian mask..." how totalitarian.
🔥🔥🔥
can someone tell me what budget grandmaster is ? simply don't understand what Botez said
A grandmaster that's usually FIDE rated about 2400, but scraped the GM title during a good run of form/luck.
@@SuperYtc1 thanks
Did she ask how the horse moved? (Too soon?)
Cheers without drinking? Dubious. Also, great vid.
Budget patzer has entered the chat...
Stella and chess,a great combination
He used the botez to destroy the botez
When you went for Kc3+ you missed Kc5+ to get the queen back at 5:10, but still a good game.
Everyone all mad about banter. I’m here trying to figure out why Simon didn’t play Bf2+?
Was thinking the same thing, but after calculating it, it turns out the king is escaping.
@@dimaselang930 I saw that but with the discovered checks etc he would’ve gobbled up material.
Forfeit the rest of the day for that party fail!
Lol 😆 I thought it was just me and my friend 🤣🤣🤣 who talk nonsense to each other while playing Chess
I am in love with this girl!
I dont know if its just me but wasnt the game over when she ate ur queen then u check with the black bishop???
Good game
I really hate trash talking in chess.
that aint a pub thats a school hall XD
3:58 Now bRf8, bBc5 and bNe4 all attack f2, and wK is still at e1. Shades of Légall. But BxQd1 is actually best, and Black doesn't have a winning attack.
