Grandmaster Maurice Ashley plays NYC trash talker - The Tim Ferriss Experiment

- I was schooled by the best hustlers back in the day! This was actually in Washington Square Park where the late great Vinnie Livermore used to beat my ass at that same table! (This is a bonus clip from The Tim Ferriss Experiment TV show. Watch the full series here: fourhourworkweek.com/tv/)
This is what smurfing in real life looks like.
The guy was trying to hack the game and STILL loss 😂😂
omfg
It's not smurfing. He knows exactly who he is, and everyone else around the table knew exactly who he was. That was someone who was wilfully ignorant. Nothing more

Is that code for something?
Chess rating: 1880
Trash talk rating: 2588
Double horse taking pawn: off the charts.
Lol 1880 is way too high for him. I'm 1934 and I'd whoop his ass any day of the week
@@fili0938 But are you rated 2957 in double-piece switching?
Tt rating over 2800
Horse.
it's over 9000!
LOL "Are you rated?" "Maurice Ashley, Grand Master." That's better than "Bond. James Bond."
I don't think he revealed the "grand master" part, someone said it off the camera.
omg it was BOMB
For a moment, it sounded like "Grandma... sir"
I've heard "are you ready". Lol
@@CarlosSuperCute 😐
I aspire to be as calm as the grandmaster.
He's like a fucking jedi

You don't need to be full of yourself when you got nothing to prove. Chess tests your humility
Dude so true.. I play chess just to practice control over my emotions.. the calmer I can be the better I play for sure.
funny to see the the hustler's facial expression at about the 2:00 mark when HE starts to realize that HE is being hustled, LOL !!

Read this while he was on his Oh ohhoHHH loop
damn he a cheater!
boom hit! boom hit!
Grandmaster has to be one of the coolest titles to have.
That and the Tour de France 'King of the Mountains'

@@alanbright4823 ehh KOM is not always won by the best climbers. If you are the best climber you are usually fighting for the yellow jersey not the KOM.
Right up there with Grand Wizard
Saint Michael'Champion of God'. Can't do better. Although being baptized makes you a 'soldier of Christ', pretty cool👍
He was slick with that double knight take, I wonder how many amateurs he’s gotten with something like that
He a hustler for sure
I think many amateurs/tourists, even if they noticed right away, might not have the courage or experience to speak up and call him out right away either. So my guess is many players get hustled like that all the time.
I'd get up and walk away from a cheater like that.
It was cold out, and dark. It didn't seem intentional.
And this was being recorded. If it's just your word against the guy and his buddies, then you're screwed
You can tell he was embarased getting schooled in his own house. I used to walk by these guys all the time
I read that and literally went “Ik....wait.”
Maurice Ashley moved to NYC when he was a kid, he grew up there too and he actually learned a lot from these chess swindlers in NYC growing up!
Easy dude its scripted hahaha ..
@@xxxtabamimingxxx6853 lol no its not
Its not his turf. description literally says its the very same table he was schooled in by the greatest hustlers
His "double knight with pawn" technique was phenomenal. My go-to chess strat has always been the "forearm massacre swipe" where I take out the entire opponent's side with my arm prior to flipping the entire board to go along with a curse-filled rant.
Classic move
LMFAOOOO
Jacob Taylor hahahaha
Call it "Natural Disaster"!
Brilliant move
pawn takes both knights. Best move.
It was a dirty move and completely intentional.
peffiSC2source very suspicious
he needs to be put on double secret probation
Legit
KETROC I FOUND YA COME BACK TO STARCRAFT IM BEGGING YOU I WILL RESUB TO TWITCH PLEASE DEW IT.
Love the way Maurice refuses to let go of his hand at the end. Wasn’t about to let him escape this moment.
just like from that show 'billions'
A lot of NYC chess hustlers use talking and verbal deflections to try and distract from what’s happening on the board but Maurice has played chess hustlers too many times over the years and knows all their tricks (being a grandmaster helps too!)
Nah you dont need to play them all the time just be a decent player and u can keep track of the board and call out their cheats
He might never play hustlers. He’s a grandmaster so his concentration and being several moves ahead could make him see that move.
he can probably play blindfolded. he's not going to miss 2 pieces being taken. he knows where all the pieces are and where they can move and what's under threat at all times
His title alone, means, he easily destroys 99.99998% (yes, the math is correct) of the population in chess. Earning the title of Chess Grandmaster is an incredibly impressive accomplishment.
He came up in chess playing with/against the hustlers in NY.He knows it all.Inside and out.He used to lose too but he kept studying books and got better and better till he reached Grand Master

There are VERY few things more satisfying than beating an obnoxious opponent at Chess, or any game for that matter.
Alan Grey ... I’ve encountered the “trash talker” several times in the park, and I agree wholeheartedly!
Yeah, that’s satisfying, but seeing the Golden State Warriors team getting blown out is equally as great
To be fair, the guy DID hang with a Grandmaster.
Trash talk is part of their strategy to take their opponent's attention off the board.
He didn’t hang at all. Trash talker had zero chance. Doomed after his first move.
This guy knew it was over as soon as Maurice moved the clock.
Why is that? Cheating clock too?
@@belloffields In tourneys black gets to choose the side the clock goes on as a courtesy since white gets the advantage of moving first. Putting it on the right side of the black player means he can hit the clock a tiny bit faster after making his move since he's right handed.
@@NocturnalBeing Interesting. Didn't know that.
An underappreciated moment here is when he moves the clock in the beginning.
Hey there is a new chess movie in netflix called "The Queen's Gambit"
"don't I get to choose side as black?"
Wilson: *screams internally*
im not sure i understand why is it a known hussler thing to mess with the clock?
@@Mt-BNN in chess rules, You have to hit the clock with the same hand that you move your piece with. So it’s a slight advantage to have the clock on the side of your dominant hand. White has a natural slight advantage, by moving first, so Black generally gets to choose the side of the clock, as a sort of balancing rule.
@@pontiusaquila6907 That makes total sense but I didn't know this was a thing. Thanks

Most of my chess games end with a "WHATS GOING ON NOW?" also @3:45
Like a true grandmaster, dignified. He remained calm and friendly throughout even when the other guy deliberately tried to cheat.
and called him a nitwit!
He didn't try to cheat, he cheated and was caught and denied it. No respect for him.
I would say he did cheat but was caught but to be fair this isn't the nationals youre in "the park" so catch it and take that dignify
maurice ashley earned his chess chops early on in washington square playing hustlers, so this is no problem for him.
its part of the fun. the thing with playing on the streets is that people will always try to go a little bit outside of the rules. too much is disrespectful, but trash talking and keeping your opponent on edge with the little moves, it is par for the course, and in my opinion has some charm to it.
Random guy in the back: "MATE IN 3"
Maurice: "Mate in 23" *plays 3 moves*
Random guy in the back still: "MATE IN 3!!"
It will be mate in 3 at some point 🤣
He probably saw some sort of "strat" and called it that without realizing mate in 3 actually means forced mate.
mate in 23. just says it so casually
@@jackkenefick2696 It was just an estimate. There's no way anyone without a computer could know that.

When he asks him what his name is. Maurice Ashley. And the guy just stops moving.That was a golden moment.
I’ve played Wilson before in Washington Square Park. He’s a good player, but mostly full of parlor tricks. If you can play a solid endgame, you’ve got an advantage.
I analysed the game with Stocfish and according to the engine the double knight capture was a Brilliancy. Even the engine couldn't find it at first

+Andrew Isbell Does anyone know what the move is at 3:45 Ive never herd of that before? Ps this kind of chess makes me feel soooooo dumb lol. Takes me and my pops avg 30 minutes for a game haha.
He's haitian!!! I can feel the haitian uncle vibe from him w/ the trickery, the trash talking and the accent!
As a Haitian, I was waiting for the confirmation!
He had him when he tried to cheat. He knew he'd met his match...LOL
That pawn was definitely on steroids taking two muscular knights down.
He takes one "en passant" xD
Nah don't twist the truth bro. He was on steroids. So he took one out with his one arm and tossed the other one over his head upfront with his other arm.
@@Ianthe22 yeah that was quite an impressive move xD
@@iyazakimthom Ofc the move is impressive if it wasn't for the fact that it was illegalXD. If i could in all my games take 2 pieces everytime i took one , i would be the first world champion in my familyXDXD.

yea pantheon
ok panth i see you
Maurice was very professional. He kept his cool and remained polite the entire time during all the trash talking and attempted cheating.
Maurice is the Mace Windu of chess.
He’s my favorite commentator by far with how animated he is in the explanation of each other GM’s personality in the game. His Ted Talk explains efficient ways to navigate and think about complex systems.
Overall, powerful person and a gift to the world.
You know why that sleight of hand trick doesn’t work with chess champs like these? Because they play the game for years. They know by memory where all their pieces are at that very moment.
Exactly. That's why invisible chess is a very fun option on most computer chess games.
I mean anybody who is looking at the board remembers the position they are playing with lol.
As long as you're keeping track of it there's no way you shouldn't notice you are missing 1 full knight

When I was in jail, I played chess for 8 hours a day for a year and a half straight, I got real good at playing chess. Then I went to prison and i ran into a ton of old geezers that always talked a lot of shit when I played chess with them, it was so much fun making them tip over their kings. I can't say that I enjoyed being there in that hell for my bad choices I made in life, but those memories are priceless man, I kinda miss those people. It makes me sit back and realized chess kinda saved my life, cause if it wasn't for chess, I would have gotten myself in trouble, and trouble usually means death or endless PC in prison...

This is something I would love to master but never will. it's amazing, the thought processes used. it's also very special seeing so many skilled and talented players.....who just play.
I watch this video every so often and I just replayed the ending from 4:12 on and its so wholesome. The hustler is extremely impressed and shocked, motioning to his buddys like ''who the hell is this guy, he just beat me with ease and talked the talk at the same time'' And then he finds out Maurice is a GM and almost seems elated to have played a game (you can see it in his smile)
At the same time maurice is humble but with a devious smile (expecially the chuckle when the bystander reveals his status/rating as a grandmaster)

Had the pleasure of playing Maurice back in the early eighties, and he could trash talk with the best of them in blitz. In blitz he was seeing the entire plan of a game while we were seeing just a move or two.
A total gentleman in a tournament game. I'll never forget at the Kingsmen chess club they had a tournament, and Maurice was in it. In our game I forgot to hit my clock twice, and he brought it to my attention by extending his open palm toward my clock.

+peffiSC2source I'd guess higher. I'm around 1700 and I wouldn't be a good hustler at all. You can be 1700 and have extremely little theoretical knowledge.

In case anybody says this was staged: it's footage of multiple cameras, there's obviously a crowd, it's Maurice Ashley, the hustler yells to cut the cameras in the end. Televised, but not staged.
Love how he pretends to be outraged and still shakes his hand and asks for his name.
First he didn't care for small talk introductions... Then he tried to cheat... Then he wanted to turn back the hands of time after getting his butt kicked. Heeheehee 😁
