Nice teaching moment from a GM, Dada probably registered lots. Dada has potential! Nice of Hikaru to show up again! Very classy!

[@ckobo84]

He should have gave her Queen odds (playing without a queen).

[@Wexexx]

@@ckobo84 Personally I think that's just boring. It's better that he does it like this, where he deliberately puts weakness in his setup and lets her experience the and different setups. You won't learn as well if the other one doesn't have a major piece to play with. Much more instructive to have the GM play 1500-2000 ELO setups and try using it as a teaching moment instead.
