The best computer review I've gotten so far was 2200, in a 30 minute Rapid. I was over the moon, so I know how you feel Anna. Those milestones are incredible. Good job!
Those ratings estimates aren't accurate and change player to player even if its the same exact moves. Computer % accuracy is always much more relliable.
I saw one of your videos one day of you playing in the park and then another one featuring your mother and I became a fan of yours due to your style of play and your overall personality. I didn't play often because I'm not very good and other players would easily pick up on that or I'd just tell them, so they'd just toy with me and I'd lose in embarrassing fashion all the while having to hear little jabs and insults during the game. It just got to the point where I stopped playing because for me, it was about having a good time and not just crushing the person across from me. Then, I came across your videos and saw how nice you were, even during play, and it encouraged me to get back to the board. Thank you and your mother and your family for igniting the spark for me to start playing again! 👍🏽
Your stream worked its way into my feed - and subsequently, because of your enthusiasm and approach to sharing and educating your viewers I now have an appreciation of the game and culture of chess. Thank you. One vote and subscription added.
It is refreshing and quite mature that you not only show your victories but also your defeats. We always learn by playing someone stronger than us. I love your delightful attitude and providing us a glimpse into how your chess mind works... All the best!!
I feel very happy for you for that extraordinary game you´ve played! I´m again new to chess as an adult, with some little experiences from my childhood, but you´re energy about the game got me into giving it a new try. Thank you for that!
@@chriscorkas I really love this! That are memories they will hold on to for the rest of their life's! I still remember my grandpa introducing me to to chess and to bond over it.
This, so much this. How often have I heard in competitive scenes, where a team is facing a much stronger opponent, that "there is no point", "they have no chance", etc. The truth is, those always picking from the lower shelves in fear of not being tall enough to reach the upper ones will never really know how tall they truly are and more importantly, how far they can stretch themselves. Your approach to the game and general personality is truly amazing and even though chess is not my cup of tea, I always find myself watching any of your videos i happen to stumble across because of how full it is with positivity. I loved the story and especially the ending of the story, as you demonstrate so well, that even if you "lose" in a competitive sport, it doesn't really matter as long as you gave it all you've got or more. You did and you have all right of feeling happy and proud of what you accomplished. More so, maybe, than you realize, given how rare this attitude is out there. :) Thanks for sharing the story with us.
Listening to you go through this match? Was a LARGE improvement in your thinking process.... because you DID begin to let yourself play chess. It's not a question of IF you will unleash what many out here can already see, only when. I've no doubt your parents already know this, and are just having fun watching you work through it all- It IS very cool to be able to watch as it happens, because it pulls all of us in with you, lol. Your mind has a steel-trap aspect to it? That, with practice, you'll be able to learn how to keep the time aspect in a better position. It's not over-confidence? But it's similar- more excitement that your actually keeping up in a match such as this? And that's causing a bit of a blind-spot. But you'll get it, because as you said, you love playing in harder matches- That's how you develop that clearer vision. Excellent job! Really fun to watch. Oh, and yes, I already cast my vote- of course!
Anna, you played a great game going toe to toe against the GM. About time management, there's probably a fine line between feeling like you are playing too slow vs rushing. Once you find the happy medium, I bet your game will be that much better. You've inspired me to slow down and think more at critical moments in a game instead of rushing. Like I said, a fine line.
The same thing as many people. By coincidence I found your video's and found them entertaining. Knowing NOTHING about chess but I kept watching. With you analyzing games I started to understand some things ( like castling etc..). So I started to play. On the computer because for me that was a great way to learn. With those coloured squares. And a few days ago we bought a board. And it turns out learning with the computer and watching your video's really helped. Online theres always a draw or a win and got a level up against the computer. And on the board I'm winning a lot. So you are a great advocate for chess !! I got from: eh chess is far to difficult for me to rather quickly learn the basics and start to play.
Great job. Only two suggestions. First, you may want to mention that you just connected your rooks. Also when your rook reached the seventh rank and advantages of that. Thanks, Brad
The one time I beat the Naroditsky bot, the analysis assessed my level in the game to be 2650... And I was 1700 at the time, and it took me almost an hour and 92 moves 😂😂😂
I saw this on stream, it was awesome!! You and Eric Rosen, my favorites...both of you have the habit of thinking the time away. I think because I need to slow down and think more! 😂
Two things that were good about this video. One is you tell me what is theory and I wish you would do more of that. And the other is I realize maybe mainline openings are mainline because they fight in the center where all your pieces have maximum activity.
I see so many comments like this that sometimes I wonder whether I'm in the minority, being a chess player who watches these videos for the chess content.
Just found you about 2 weeks prior to Iceland ,your a blast !! Great personality ! and your ahead of your age,its refreshing . Ive been playing sence 64 and its still a pleasure.Good luck to you!!
Hello Anna ! 12:12 Black Queen on b5 is your better option ! Because White opponent cannot take your bishop without loose the game, and that forces white horse on b4. Then you can retake the control of game, and keep your bishop. If opponent do another choice, you go to win !!! 🧐
No,no, Qa4 is better, because in that case black must play Rf1, he is forced to lose two steps backward in tempo. Taking pawn with Queen, and then, after black choose will he take bishop or save knight, advantage is obviouse, knight is removed from strong position (or eaten), oponent rook is stuck with king so opponent first must develope it again (that is what Qa5 is forcing -- two forced moves from opponent), and foxus on remaining c-pawn security, and Anna would have in that case compelette initiative, tempo, + material, + better pawn development and structure -- impossible not to win... except on time :)
The level of happiness, enthusiasm and being proud over your accomplishment is intoxicatingly infectious and makes you suuuuper sympathetic. Your personality is just great, please stay as you are :)
It's so wonderful to see your passion for chess. I love it. I'm not a much of a chess player, but I do enjoy when I get the opportunity. Watching your passion is heartwarming. I bet your grandmaster parents are super proud.
That's great. Period. I won't say my usual criticism about time (and yeah, I get it about over-thinking is an addiction) because you were playing a great GM. Cheers.
she nailed it in the intro - better competition really does bring out the best in us and it's so fundamentally important we not lose sight of that in pursuit of avoiding hurt feelings. sportsmanship matters too, of course, which often softens the sting of defeat when an opponent is especially gracious. but leaning into scenarios in which we face stronger competition in any aspect of life is really "it" when it comes to humanity and this chess match was a beautiful expression of that important truth.
Congratulations and Bravo 👏 Never allow yourself to be intimidated by anyone! You have learned that you can compete with the best players in the world. Stay focused and you will become one of them!
Good for you. Keep working; you’re getting better. You made a key point though - do your best to play every game like you’re up against the very best. I know you know you should. I’m happy you’re having fun.
Yeah, I saw this game the other day. It's very good but I have to admit I don't really understand it. Well, I've always had problems with ...e6 Sicilians. You did really well, and you know it.
I love your attitude. You are such an enthusiastic learner. I feel like at some point, we are just going to witness an absolute skyrocketing of your rating, abilities, and accomplishments, cause you're just working steadily forward!
Congrats on a great game. As for time management, all one needs to become a slow player is to have one time when an opponent nails you on a careless mistake where you forgot to guard a piece or you missed a fork. Perhaps when you were young and just starting you got surprised by a mistake? I know I have made enough mistakes by NOT thinking long enough.
That’s always the case for all competitions. The underdog has so much more motivation to win and the favorite can’t really benefit even if they win. It must be rough being on top. You have little to gain and can’t really get excited over any matches.
Incredible and fantastic, and you did it, Anna! Thank you very much for reviewing this game again: you did as well as you truly can be, this wasn't a once off, when you find the right moves. You're entitled to be so pleased with yourself! Let it continue with your next challenges.
Hi @AnnaCramling, why is the d5 square the most important in the position? Can you explain that please? How do i know the most important square in any chess position?
Anna - I'm not even into chess per sé. Watching you has been delightful! You're so wholesome! The joy you have from playing the game is delightful! I even tried watching the Queens gambit - first episode was a little hard to watch, but I'm going to give it another go and hopefully get hooked! Something that also has me hooked is your accent and voice! Haha - sorry - I'm really big on accents! But thankyou for sharing your joy of the game - it's contagious!
its funny you missed f5, its a very thematic move of the Shveshnikov. Anyway i'm psyched you played one of my fave openings, and very well too! Qa4 is wild! that's why i like this opening!
Congratulations Anna. You played good enough to win and held your own against a GM. He knows he was very lucky to win and could have lost. Keep pursuing your playing against tough opponents. It only makes you better. Hugs from Santa Barbara, CA. 🤗😘🌹👏
Good one! I played a Grand Master (from Europe) OTB in Auckland 2015 and got a very strong position. In fact as I was on board one (one fellow NZ player 'wondered who the GM was'...but I played the Rubinstein idea in the Symmetrical English. Now I think he chose one of the weaker plans (I think the best Idea for W is to get f4 in). As the game went on I saw the various threats and kept such a good position his time kept dropping to round 10 seconds, even less sometimes...there were increments....I couldn't offer a draw until move 30. What freaked me was looking at his clock times.... But then I made an inaccuracy and that led to a weaker or not so clearly won position for me. However in that tournament my plan was to get 50% which meant if I got more that was a bonus and I had practiced or imagined losing then drawing then winning and then thinking of the next game and so on. I didn't do an evaluation of my level during the game I knew I had played well....but of course in a match he would have won everytime overall....no illusions.
I remember Gotham Chess lost a similar game on time and it broke him. You lost on time and it inspired you. Wow your positive outlook on this situation is very inspiring.
Played in an online Tournament and used a way of locking my moves to enable checking but in that game I realized too late I didn't know how to 'unlock' that and it caused me to lose on time....But it is all fun and games. But managing the clock is one of the skills of chess.
I didn't think watching chess on TH-cam was a thing, but somehow ended in this rabbit hole. It's quite fascinating, I enjoy it, despite not knowing a single thing about Chess.
In Bridge a Chess level complexity card game at the highest level of play but played as partners many and I think playing and being crushed by better players great way to improve ones moves.
First time viewer and very happy for you. You have my vote and congratulations on a great game and result. Keep that sweet personality and never let the game influence what you are on the inside. Good going
Tienes una energia increíble. Eres una realmente bonita persona, y tu alegría es totalmente contagiosa. A y dejame decirte. La vaca es de lo mejor que le ha pasado al ajedrez. Me he divertido con tu vaca por horas sin fin, y es la razón por la que he vuelto a jugar despues de .. décadas. Y no se que magia tiene la vaca, en serio me ha dado los mejores resultados jamás, a pesar de que a ratos amarra demasiado. Un abrazo grande. Espero ver tu canal por mucho tiempo. Sospecho eso si que aún no te has percatado de que tienes un talento natural para crear contenido. Cuando tengas en la vida esos momentos que te achicopalan, solo toma un respiro y recuerda que me has dado a mi uno de los más bonitos regalos de la vida. Un abrazo grande y toda la buena energía para ti, y tus encantadores padres.
Ha, now I wanted to vote for you, and had to find out voting closed yesterday. So sad. Good luck nonetheless - your coverage of chess events and especially also your own games is really excellent in both presentation and content :)
I am a casual player -- but the times I have spent a lot of time practicing -- I have found myself "in the zone" and surprise myself about how well I played -- I look back and think: "Was that me" -- but it was. Now, those days are rare but I enjoy them when the happen.

Is she cheating? She's getting crazy accuracy games lately - Kramnik
😆 Besides losing all self respect and feeling terrible. What would she possibly gain from cheating?
Being accused of cheating is the greatest compliment for a gamer.
Shes in the Future Safe a gm 😊
Super grandmasters are all acting crazy these days. Anna was booked up pretty good because she's played this opening literally a thousand times.
Everybody who beats me is cheating - Kramnik

For me my best game was Last week
Because in that game me and my opponent , we played 79 moves!!
hard work and rigorous self assessment are a potent combination. congrats on your hard earned success
I think you forgot to retrieve the "variant filter" at 4:45 😂
@5:46 if white plays b4 couldn't white play Nc4 and his knight looks like it's in a good position?
the best estimated rating ive gotten was 2600, when i played against Stockfish 16. i was under 1100 at the time
Congrats on a great game.
As for time management, all one needs to become a slow player is to have one time when an opponent nails you on a careless mistake where you forgot to guard a piece or you missed a fork. Perhaps when you were young and just starting you got surprised by a mistake?
I know I have made enough mistakes by NOT thinking long enough.

I’ve never played chess but find your videos intriguing. Your honesty and enthusiasm are captivating. Now I want someone to teach me how to play.
So tough a loss! Your videos got me back into chess and I'm loving it! thank you, Ms Cramling!! You'll be GM 3k+ if you want to... it's in your DNA.
Trying to vote for you, Anna...I'm not getting any Category No 4...just a home page about getting tickets for the show!
Thanks!
15:00 Anna, I would find a way to lose in this drawing position.
My best game we remembering where the horsey parts can go. I love your walkthroughs and detailed explanations.. Thank You.
Why is it better to capture the knight on F6 with the bishop instead of the pawn? (Probably a dumb question I’m just curious).
Love the video and have voted for you. Your enthusiasm is so contagious.
Great Vid, but tbh, I am Just hyped for the next Tournament🤘 it was so much fun to follow you through the whole Tournament 🔥

Me he divertido con tu vaca por horas sin fin, y es la razón por la que he vuelto a jugar despues de .. décadas. Y no se que magia tiene la vaca, en serio me ha dado los mejores resultados jamás, a pesar de que a ratos amarra demasiado.
Un abrazo grande. Espero ver tu canal por mucho tiempo. Sospecho eso si que aún no te has percatado de que tienes un talento natural para crear contenido.
Cuando tengas en la vida esos momentos que te achicopalan, solo toma un respiro y recuerda que me has dado a mi uno de los más bonitos regalos de la vida. Un abrazo grande y toda la buena energía para ti, y tus encantadores padres.
96 percent.. this is for sure very interesting
Ha, now I wanted to vote for you, and had to find out voting closed yesterday. So sad. Good luck nonetheless - your coverage of chess events and especially also your own games is really excellent in both presentation and content :)
I was very happy to vote for you. I watch all the videos of yours that show up on my TH-cam feed.
Can't seem to find voting page? Keeps bouncing back to details about the show
I am a casual player -- but the times I have spent a lot of time practicing -- I have found myself "in the zone" and surprise myself about how well I played -- I look back and think: "Was that me" -- but it was. Now, those days are rare but I enjoy them when the happen.
Thinking is good, overthinking can cause problems.
