Seriously, even if Penny is more intelligent than you might believe at first it is absolutely impossible that she wins her first game against an intelligent guy like leonard. I mean a good chess player doesn't necassarily need an extremly high iq but playing chess still requires quite a few cognitive skills. Even if you have a natural talent for chess you need some practice to improve and we do know that leonard already played some games against sheldon. But this just a sitcom anyway, so who cares.
She's seems quite smart as long as she can see the things in front of her or make a connection to things that she can see. Which is why she is skilled in chess, video games, Pictionary etc. It is when things becomes too heavily focused on math and things that she can't see that she no longer is able to follow along.
I'm not sure anyone ever figured out Penny's secret genius. She beat Leonard in chess, helped Sheldon make a breakthrough in string theory (knots) & managed to grow from waitress to actress to successful pharmaceutical sales representative early in her career. Deep down, I think she's smarter than us all ;-)
@@Red_Beard2798 You may find that people like Penny succeed precisely because they are not "book smart." Without the unneccessary jargon and intellectual hangups of traditional learning (totally engrained and rewarded in most Western schools and universities) she was free to exercise her creativity and people skills. P.S. I forgot to mention her "Penny blossoms" start-up business in my earlier comment. You can add entrepreneurial mindset to her list of skills as well.

@@lobsterfork yep and theirs no way a beginner could possibly do something like that against a player who wasn't as they would know openings and how to properly control center and squares
@@kjamison5951 they played it once and she didnt understand the game itself just like Leonnard. How could you even compare them? Sheldon has beaten Hawkins (Rest in peace), Penny isnt even close. And by the way, her victory is a common thing amonst newbies. I lost couple of times to people i taught (beginner at the time).
So I looked at this game carefully and it is in fact a checkmate on Leonard. Penny's rook on the bottom (her left) blocks Leonard vertically, then the bishop in the center of the board blocks diagonally, and her knight prevents any other movement. Good job Penny. I didn't know the show would put in that much effort into a single skit.
ur explanation is wrong but she did win. "knight prevents other movement?" uh, no. the knight doesnt do that. it is the rook and bishop preventing movement. the knight just delivers mate.
The rook is not blocking movement, it is in line with the knight being C1 not B1. You can see the 2 spaces from the side. So he could have moved his king beside the knight, however Penny could then move her queen ending in a win still.
@@Jalbesbe That's incorrect. The rook is in fact blocking movement/cutting the king off. Look carefully, the rook is on b1, a light square, and the square next to it is a dark square (a1), there is only one square next to the rook at the edge of the board, to further prove that. The Black king is in mate because the rook is on b1.
She's actually pretty intelligent, able to memorize very well, and retains the information she learns. Penny, as a character, is one of the best well written diverse characters out there that shows that a woman can not only be girl but she can like boy things too and learn very well. She's an extremely well written female character, which you don't find much of these days.
AstroBard you know penny is an example that you don’t have to destroy a show with over aware woke nonsense to write believable talented women characters. Penny has held her own surrounded by highly educated people based on her native ability, character and wit.
Being good at memorising or retain knowledge does not mean you are intelligent ... it just means you are a good sponge at learning .. intelligence goes beyond knowledge .. intelligence is often how one uses that knowledge
She's not a believable character at all. They make her smart sometimes, just for the joke. They don't care about creating good characters. The characters are all extremely stereotypical. Maybe you should watch more sophisticated shows if you think this is good stuff.
I love the part where Leonard says 'Between you playing chess like Bobby Fischer and Sheldon not mad at someone sitting in his spot, I'm guessing someone went back in time and stepped on a bug and changed the entire course of human history.' To which I say: Dang it Barry, did you mess up the timeline again!?
Laughter is a sympathetic response, just like yawning. If you ignore the laugh track things start looking and sounding a lot more sketch. But Penny beating Leonard was pretty funny, because it was expectation subversion in the best possible way. 😁
Still is extremely unusual for a first time player to beat anyone who knows the game and has experience in it. And Leonard isn't bad at chess; it's that Sheldon is extremely good at it.
@@idontknowmyname1708 1st María Martínez is correct, the chance of a new player beating an experienced is so close to zero it might as well be. Leonard giving a handicap is the only way I see a real game unfolding this way. 2nd this isn't a real game, Leonard has 2 black squared bishops.
@@idontknowmyname1708 never said it takes a genius to win. In fact on a different section on this video. I state that chess takes only memory to win, which is why and new player is highly unlikely to beat an EXPERIENCED player. Machines have no Intelligence and easily beat people.
@@idontknowmyname1708 "U just need to learn and understand the game".... Kid I have an elo 2390, you could study for five years and on your best day you still couldn't beat me!
True, but that just makes her a better character. She has smarts for certain things and is able to retain information, she's not a moron by any means, but she's flawed and realistic. It makes her more of a character. There's a bit to like and a bit to dislike. I agree with you as well!
sheldon is the most unrealistic character in the show - amazing that people do not see this - being a genius does not mean you know everything there is to know - they make it seem like he knows everything - he does know biology, geology etc - but he acts like he knows every thing
Chess nerd here. I took a look at the chess position. The nice thing about it, is that Penny actually checkmates Leonard. Her explenation of why this is checkmate is also correct concidering the position. But also there are some things wrong with the position. Leonard is way worse in this position than Penny. He is down a queen, two knights and a pawn. Penny winning is not really a surprise, Leonard should've resigned long time before that. Also Leonard has two darksquared Bishops. This is not impossible, but very unlikely. The only way to get two Bishops of the same colour, is to promote a pawn to a bishop. But this doesn't make any sense. Why would Leonard promote a Pawn to a Bishop instead of a queen, althoung he is down material? Also there is something wrong with Pennys Bishop on g4. The starting square of the white squared bishop is c1, but there is no way it could have moved to g4, as there are still pawns on e2 and g2, which would block the bishop. The only logical explenation is, that Leonard must have taken the Bishop on c1 and Penny than also would have to promote a pawn to a bishop. Lastly there are many pieces hanging in the position, which is odd. To reach this position both white and black must have made a lot of nonsense moves.
I was relatively new to chess when I joined chess club in highschool and beat the teacher in our first game. He knew my older brother as well, and he said "I assumed you would be as bad as your brother." We played another 31 games after that one while I was in high school and our final record was 1 - 31.
I asked my father to let him to let me check mate him once iny life...... Like I requested don't move the knight, I want the satisfaction once...... And yes, the record stands 1-53... I feel you buddy, though I have an idea that you are way better than me...
It’s always nice when they get the chess board set up the right way round and the icing on top it’s actually a very pretty checkmate! White rook on b1, bishop on d4 and knight on c7 with the black king on a8.
They see this happen alot with fighters. When your trained and practice you have a certain degree of expectations from opponents. And when a complete amateur does something either you've learned is wrong or isnt done you get caught off guard.
@@animefan7424 id say if you know the rules. Your not a beginner. The rules of a fight are clear. Win. Its fighters who have the stipulations. No kicking in boxing, etc.
I like to believe that she was deliberately doing this “horsie, lighthouse, pointy guy” bit specifically to screw with Leonard and make him underestimate herz
Any one who calls himself a "chess player" cannot lose to someone who is playing for the first time its just impossible no matter how much IQ the untrained person has he cannot , because its not about IQ completely it is about recognizing preplayed patterns and further moves because tactics in chess are applied by playing a move that looks "normal" or harmless but it forces the opponent player to play a move that further depletes his/her position and it is not possible for a first time player to know the chess lines of those moves and thus they can't counter it which leads to their loss
In the real game yes but they're just acting, in the real game Leonard should've seen the "kc7" move to stop checkmate but as I said that game was not real and even begginers can't find the kc7 move
It's the overconfidence what gets you. Regularly showcasing itself in the world of chess, if you think you have already won, it's a game over for you. I bet Penny went for h4.
That happened to me once. I was engaged to the woman at the time and she had stopped playing chess after one attempt with her father when he beat her in some very small number of moves. I decided to give her an easier time so I taught her the game and just kind of wasted time on my end of the board for a while. In the middle of the game I had someone give her advice when I left the room. We were talking and playing and I should have been paying attention because she won. That was the only time she ever beat me at chess although she did enjoy it after that and learned a good deal more about it
I have realized Sheldon would have a nervous breakdown during the pandemic. Can't get a haircut. Can't go to the comic book shop. Has to wear a mask when he goes outside...
Reminds me of that time on "Future Card Buddyfight 100" when a Buddy monster kept losing Buddyfights to other players. Including an actual baby and an actual cat.

@@animefan7424 id say if you know the rules. Your not a beginner. The rules of a fight are clear. Win. Its fighters who have the stipulations. No kicking in boxing, etc.
The 2020 pandemic would have broken havoc on Sheldon's life, that's an interesting new season right there.
I like to believe that she was deliberately doing this “horsie, lighthouse, pointy guy” bit specifically to screw with Leonard and make him underestimate herz
І've been watchin' it several times and yes, i love it. Again!😁
Had this exact same thing happen when I taught my first gf chess
Any one who calls himself a "chess player" cannot lose to someone who is playing for the first time its just impossible no matter how much IQ the untrained person has he cannot , because its not about IQ completely it is about recognizing preplayed patterns and further moves because tactics in chess are applied by playing a move that looks "normal" or harmless but it forces the opponent player to play a move that further depletes his/her position and it is not possible for a first time player to know the chess lines of those moves and thus they can't counter it which leads to their loss
but then again he was playing with a hot girl so he probably wasnt even focusing that much and could have subconsciously sabotaged himself
In the real game yes but they're just acting, in the real game Leonard should've seen the "kc7" move to stop checkmate but as I said that game was not real and even begginers can't find the kc7 move
It's the overconfidence what gets you. Regularly showcasing itself in the world of chess, if you think you have already won, it's a game over for you. I bet Penny went for h4.
Is your real name Sheldon, because you missed the point?
@@alisotoudeh08knight is n😊
"He's crazy" ahahahah
Leonard explain it... He is crazy... 🤣🤣🤣🤣 OMG what a great line... im dying of laughter at 2 in the morning
He simply underestimated her because it is her first time, thus he didn’t take the game seriously.
No, they never played the game. This is a show, its not really happening. Penny beat him.
That happened to me once. I was engaged to the woman at the time and she had stopped playing chess after one attempt with her father when he beat her in some very small number of moves. I decided to give her an easier time so I taught her the game and just kind of wasted time on my end of the board for a while. In the middle of the game I had someone give her advice when I left the room. We were talking and playing and I should have been paying attention because she won. That was the only time she ever beat me at chess although she did enjoy it after that and learned a good deal more about it
No, this is real life.
You see? It is a game were everybody wins!
@@jorgelopez-pr6dr Except for the people who lose
This is exactly what happened when I taught my sister chess and she played for the first time 😹😹
I changed the rule and said you cannot do that 😹
"You playing chess like Bobby Fischer" 😂😂
i lov the way penny called the chess pieces cause thats was funny lol
I cannot imagine Penny as a chess prodigy. The center cannot hold.
I have realized Sheldon would have a nervous breakdown during the pandemic.
Can't get a haircut. Can't go to the comic book shop. Has to wear a mask when he goes outside...
I actually experienced this. A guy I really liked was teaching me to play chess, and I somehow beat him once. He stopped teaching me after that.
Leonards "hmmmm" was priceless 😅😅
Leonard was going to cry at the end.. just so humiliating for him to lose..
i like the show, but, this is an ooooooold trope. Reminds me when Martin beat his son Frasier several years earlier.
And how Woody beat Frasier in Cheers :)

My horsey, my castle, my pointy head guy. How can you not fall in love with that.
Ok the pointy head guy cracks me up every time!
1:36 “I’m sorry I don’t understand!” Penny.
1:39 “Leonard, explain it to her!” Sheldon.
1:41 “Oh uh, he’s crazy!” Leonard.
can you imagine living with sheldon during The Pandemic
Good observation!
Reminds me of that time on "Future Card Buddyfight 100" when a Buddy monster kept losing Buddyfights to other players. Including an actual baby and an actual cat.
