He didn't only go over variations with her, he is the one who challanged her to play the game in the first place, even though the difference in skill makes it like playing against a toddler for him. Usually, the weaker player is the one challenging the stronger player, hoping that he agrees to play at all

@@pneumonoultramicroscopicsi4065 I think it's more that those "bad" (ChessNetwork calls them "hope chess") moves have a good chance of working against weaker players. Similar to how you can play for a win with Black if your opponent is lower rated. So Anish is making the game interesting, giving her a chance to win if she finds the right moves, but also giving himself good practical chances (especially with low time) if she fails to find the reply - all in one. It's all for fun but it also makes a lot of sense to play like that. An alternative could be playing very solid and if Anna doesn't make serious mistakes herself, slowly grind her down. But that's not without risks too - there is only so many moves you can make in 2mins.

I think it's necessary to experiment with questionable moves every once in a while, or one will not improve anymore. In fact, I think when chess AIs are being trained, they have some chance to make a random, almost always bad move rather than the one they evaluate as the best one. If this is not done, they fall into unproductive patterns, where they plateau at some level of skill and cease improving. It's probably the same with humans.

I love how humble you are, that you are just having fun with the game and if you win you're happy but if you lose, you've had fun and you take it as a learning opportunity. And I love how he took the time to talk about what had gone wrong at the end. LOVE your channel!

Anish is such a class act, he’s one of my my fav GMs up there with Magnus, Dayna and Eric Hansen

I don't play chess, I barely know how, but I love watching Anna's videos, it's so fun to watch her. There is something so pure about very high level players of any game just going to the park and playing people for the love of it.

You guys just look so chill together, it's awesome

... for the chessable joke alone, this was worth it. :) Anish, what a cool dude.

There’s just something so funny about how honest and direct Anish is.

3:42 Eval bar pointing Anish made a blunder then Anna Making a blunder the next move, after that Anish accurately pointing saying don’t look at the eval bar it will be swinging. Wow these GMs have a computer inside their brain 🧠

Lifelong players of the game basically have those movements burnt into their muscle memory, I always found it really satisfying to watch. Every GM has their own unique way of doing it. My favorite is Fischer's piece handling, it was really snappy and sort of aggressive.

'Are you able to take there?' 'Yes, CHESSable' 😂 Gotta love Anish

Anna is remarkable how she can communicate with everyone, on her level or theirs. She could sit down with the Queen of England, a movie star or a 5 year old, and each would find it fun. That the chess is irrelevant is an especial credit to her parents.

Hey! Of course Anish knows his stuff: I was thinking exactly about this e4-e5, ...dxe5, f4-f5 sac which is typical in Benoni positions. You could check it at the moment you played f5 or even the previous move instead of Qg4. Ask your dad about this plan, for sure he knows some Tal games with that plan. You could even check similar ideas before your g4-g5 plan. But that one was interesting, even though I wouldn't play so personally. Anyway that was nice. Not only you, Anish talks much more nowadays 😉😅

In the opening after white plays Bd3, there is some interesting line like b5 offering a free pawn. So suprising that a super gm like anish didnt go to that line.

I like how the game started with the eval bar being -1.5, knowing that Anish is better.

We need more players like Anish

The conversation at the end was the chatter of experts. Nice game and thank you for this content Anna : )

super GMs can beat anyone blindfolded so not only they remember, but also can do board analysis by thought

I didn't think the evaluation bar swings so much in so high level games

A wild Anish Giri has appeared!

Anish look like to be a good person and a good teacher as well.

'please don't look at the eval bars after this one', Anish Giri after a?? - move.

Her: "Am I actually just.." Him: "Yeah, yes.."

I used to have a GM buddy. He would get 1 min, I got 10. He never lost, he simply thinks while my clock is running. He also played blindfolded and never lost. GM’s are on a different level, one we regular people can’t comprehend.

Thoses birds sound is perfect music for chess i love outsides chess

I love how the eval bar at the beginning favours black, which it normally favours white. I do not know whether it was done on purpose, but it is hilarious.

"It definitely became a thing later.." Cracking up so early into this video.

A lot of anishes moves were not the best but thats the thing about being a super gm against low rated players, you need one tactic and you can just try in the end and will still probably win the game even from a bad position

I love how anna has the same manerism with her mom like "can i do this?" And do it anyway.
