You couldn’t find out who Hessling was because they don’t exist. The game was entirely composed by van de Loo (who is real) because iirc he’s a fan of the Traxler and wanted to see the counterattack on steroids.

Like no joke. I live in the Netherlands. And whenever I play with my non chess friends, their tactic is litteraly: "Koning naar voren" meaning "King forward". This was basicly every game I play with them
I wish you would always include the evaluation bar. That makes it more exciting and helps the newer chess players understand the significance of certain moves.
When I was a kid, I always opened with knight to h3, and one time my cousin and sister spent 3 hours unaware that no one can win when only the kings are left, so yes, I’ve seen and played dumber games.
I got one better. When I was a kid, I 'invented' my own opening. e4 Bd3 Qf3 Ne2 O-O. Then pushed the H pawn for good measure. Didn't want to get back ranked, after all. Played it every single game. It didn't work out well. I also remember someone stalemated me, and I informed them it was a draw, and they were like "Whatever, I won. I have more pieces."
Good. No one has ever watched me play before. I somehow always forget that the king is actually important, and I can't think any further than the next move my opponent will do.

“And hopefully the dumbest chess game you have ever seen in your life, that you, yourself have not played.”
Me: Is this a personal attack?
I stood up for a moment half way through. Then I came back, and I wondered how in the world white king got to the other side of the board without moving a single rook.
"arn't you happy you clicked" is also what Levy tells his tinder date in the middle of a hookup.
this is not the dumbest game ever. this is the most mind blowing game ever
this was more of a rollercoaster than my parents divorce...
not gonna lie - i was expecting an certain 2021 anarchy chess game
The eval bar is like my heartbeat after a 30-second bullet game.
never in my life have I see a white king on a8 with a +11 on the evaluation bar, this game was truly a work of art
If there was something called King Sacrifice , this would be it.
At 10:30 when the King had to leave behind the knight he spent the past ten minutes saving, I felt that. RIP Ne5...
