Such wonderful humility. Watching you with your mother's commentary has been so much fun. Fantastic recovery today and can't wait to see more tomorrow. Learning so much from the games and commentary. This has to be the most wholesome and touching content for anyone who has shared a hobby with their kiddo.

Kudos to you that you don't try to hide a defeat. You're as open about it as about a win. I like that and it shows that you're a great person.

Hey Anna - love your honesty and vulnerability. Wishing you all the best and strength to bounce back stronger!

1:05 that's what we say when we realized that we are getting old

It seems challenging to maintain focus during the chess tournament while simultaneously managing live streaming, posting analysis videos, and, of course, preparing for upcoming games. I really appreciate the work that you and your mom are doing. Wish you all the best in the tournament!

I seriously watch Anna's videos partly to learn from her charismatic mannerisms. I have been reserved and taciturn as hell for several years, and Anna's mannerisms are how I pretty much used to be like, so I am trying to regain that part of myself by learning from how she acts around people.

Good for you getting so much sleep

While he did look bored while you were thinking, he looked bored on his own turns too.

Pia Cramling is now my favorite chess commentator

Unconvinced that it's a good plan to play a completely different opening in classical chess just because others have seen your normal openings online. You'll be less familiar with the type of positions arising and what to do in them. If you're happy that your online openings are sound and safe, stick with them! Opponents can prepare for them but you will still be in a position where you feel comfortable. In this game it feels as if Anna's opponent is more comfortable with the strategy of what to do in the position than she is. He has a clear plan, she can't find one (and indeed there may not be a good active plan in this line - another reason for not just following book theory if it leads to positions you're not happy in). So she gets short of time in a tricky position where she's on the defensive. Simon Webb's "Chess for Tigers" made interesting points on finding openings that suit your style rather than trying to play the "best" book moves.

Well said Ian! I wish Anna had confidence in her game. Question! How many moves ahead do you think someone should hypothesize/strategically play-out? I ask because I feel a player not only loses time pondering each move but they also become mentally and physically fatigued worrying about moves that never come to fruition.

@iankemp1131

2 ай бұрын

@@pglover64 That's a very good and interesting question. If there's complex tactics you have to analyse key lines several moves deep if you can, especially if sacrificing material. In Anna's first game in this tournament (against the Cow) she sac'd 2 pieces but missed one resource that allowed White to give one back and have a won ending. But for a strategic plan in one sense you're seeing many moves ahead in principle, but only checking for immediate tactical reasons which might refute it, maybe a couple of moves deep. "Tactics is knowing what to to when there is something to do, strategy is knowing what to do when there is nothing to do." Try to form a plan and stick to it unless something major happens that forces you to change it or gives you a tactical opportunity. Sometimes that plan is to sit tight because there is nothing better. I think that was the case here and Anna got into a time-losing spiral while trying to find something to do. Maybe that would not have happened if she'd played the lines she's used in blitz games so that she has seen the shape of the positions hundreds or thousands of times before and you can tell instinctively by gut feel whether something's likely to work. Also interesting whether she has a different approach from playing most of her games as quickplay unlike those of us who were brought up on classical chess. Simon Webb quoted a classic example where he got into a "nothing" position against a known time-trouble addict, waited for him to use up all his time trying to work out the best plan, and then opened up the game so his opponent couldn't work out the best tactical lines with a couple of minutes on his clock for 20-odd moves. Sorry about the long essay!

When your tired that's when the demon of doubt shows up.

Enjoying the journey is all the matters. Hugs and kisses my dear friend. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Try not to stress too much, focus on the board and the clock and don't worry too much about your opponent! Best wishes for the next round Anna.

Oh my! I am speechless LOL. Well move on and good luck today Anna

I'm always rooting for Anna. I love her smile and her beautiful adoration for the game of chess. I will give some tough love here and say I don't think Anna will ever go much higher in her rankings for the following reason. I always hear her say how "nervous" different players or situations make her. Those who are really higher ranked players are usually fearless when it comes to their opponents. Her lack of "time management" demonstrates a lack of confidence in her moves and overall play. But in the end I don't care if she is 2200 or 1200. She is still my all-time favorite chess player. Go Anna. We Love You!!!

Always positives to come out of the negatives Anna, keep smiling as you always do. You are still young enough to learn and get better at what you do, and you will because you have the passion to do so and age is still on your side, unlike my old squishy brain that has decided to start playing chess lol (happy birthday in 1 months time btw if I don't comment on you until then :)).

An hour in four moves is crazy. Good luck for the rest of the tournament

Hello Anna ! I think the turning point of the game is at 4:51. The situation is bad for you, because you have 2 knights, against 2 bishops, which always offers better zones controls. But, when the black bishop steps back, you have one option to retake the initiative. It’s time to be aggressive and force the opponent to trade their bishops with threatening knight positions (or lets you retake center control of chess). The best move, for you, was Black knigth c5 at 4:51, and target e4 with knight or pawn (depending on the opponent’s response).🧐

@iankemp1131

2 ай бұрын

Although c5 looks a thematic square for the Knight, surely it is just met by b4 driving it away again and gaining time. White has absolutely no need to trade bishops. So it seems to just help White's own initiative by giving an extra tempo for c5. I think the position is difficult because Black has no obvious route to counterplay and just has to sit tight and await events. So not convinced this is a great opening to choose, especially against a lower ranked player where you want to win.

Wish you a lot of luck ❤

Math genius

Online vs Live is a big difference in Poker. I'm pretty sure chess have the same "problem", even tho it's because completley different reasons.

Anna I really hope you're safe in Iceland. Because I just heard TV info saying that there was a very big eruption and a big crack in the ground not far from Reykjavik so I really hope you're ok. Also it was very sad you lost yesterday, I was on the KZread live and I was sad for you but it will make you grow. When we win, we learn. When we loose, we learn even more.

Better luck next time. He was really good.

This line just looks difficult to play for Black because around 4:45 it is a solid position but there is nothing obvious to do and seemingly no good plan. I can see why Anna spent a lot of time here trying to find one, because it can feel demoralising just to sit tight and wait for your opponent to do what they want. White exploited his positional advantage well. I personally don't like the e5 variations of the Sicilian giving a backward pawn on d6 and a White outpost on d5; the e6 variations seem to give Black more counterplay options - like the Cow!

He’s not underrated! You once again beat yourself because of poor time management. I wish you better luck in the coming matches with how you manage the clock. I enjoy watching you win. It is heartbreaking to watch you lose, but it is gut wrenching to watching you beat yourself. We want you to win as bad as you want to win! We’re all rooting for you Anna!!!!

@@AlanTov He will definitely earn points this tourney and you are correct he has played well in this tourney, but I was referring to his rating not as a knock on him but more so on Anna’s rating. I really like Anna’s game but she is not playing like a mid-2100 player. Once she is able to time manage better and not over-analyze every conceivable move that her opponent may or may not make, then she deserves that rating! Anna is 3-1-3(wins-draw-loses) against players rated 1850-1900. Do I feel Anna has the skill level to perform at 2140, sure she does, but having the ability is one thing and performing consistently is another. I’m still rooting for you Anna! Please please please, just make the moves you already know and have confidence in yourself that no matter what move your opponent plays that you will counter-act their move with a better one. You play each game as though you are losing from the beginning. Just have fun! What’s the worst you can do, lose! If you can’t enjoy the game then you have already lost.
