I Fascinated This 18-Year-Old Guy at Local Chess Tournament

[@richardjames6947]

I became enthralled with this game between the pace and narrative. Most excellently played, analyzed and narrated. Thank you.

[@gustavdingertz2053]

GGs. . . rematch soon :)

[@cirkus-n8j]

Damn is this her opponent?

[@jeggspecial_6628]

😂😂😂

[@AnnaCramling]

Yesss :D

[@axelbruv]

@@cirkus-n8j Yes, it's the one and only Gustav.

[@Liberty_Freedom_Brotherhood]

Gustav has chess Rizz for sure 🙌♟️

[@GeomAndTonic]

This style of narration is lovely

[@kimoda9451]

i def want to see more of this tournament! i miss seeing you in live tournaments, with either your own or your mom's commentary!! lovely!

[@OlleJonasson-pr8lu]

Anna, This is good pedagogic show. You do it so well. Wery intetesting and good teaching.

[@ramachandra776]

Anna is on fire today . The Annaisms are dropping like rain . 1:06 - "i dont really love playing against this opening because even though i think i like playing against this opening i lose most of my games against it" 1:38 - "sacrifice the bishop and then greek gift me ...erm ....which is a tactic in chess ". 😂 Best of luck for the match against Odin Anna .

[@R.Akerman-oz1tf]

I also enjoy the dark hair. I might expect meeting Anna in a shopping mall; I'd never be in a Chess contest.

[@danielrocks234]

Once she starts integrating basketball tactics into her games, she'll be unstoppable

[@R.Akerman-oz1tf]

@@danielrocks234 "Hoop, there it is".

[@brucecrane9605]

Never get enough of Anna playing chess and narrating the match. Chess Princess

[@SunnatSodiqov-d9g]

Lmfao

[@davidw4781]

Me neither, and I would love to sit down and play a match with Anna just for fun.

[@TheVeeginator]

Chass princass

[@jimweights8908]

If only all chess players could describe their thinking so well. Great commentary thank you!

[@rousseausp]

"...this 18 year old guy" as if he was sooooo much younger than your 22 years lol!

[@alanwhiplington5504]

She probably broke his heart!

[@rousseausp]

@@alanwhiplington5504 oh 100%

[@R0I3I3IE]

Yep, her usual arrogant thumbnail! I don't believe she's very humble these days, and more about the clicks and views. That's why, in my opinion, she'll never be as good as her mum.

[@alanwhiplington5504]

@@R0I3I3IE A mean remark. It's not her fault she's pretty, personable, and intelligent.

[@It-b-Blair]

@@R0I3I3IEthat’s some wild projection…

[@RossEricJamesAustin1001-0110]

Really good game! He almost trapped you with the blitz. Your activation of quick deep analysis; the duration, is getting shorter and shorter in length. Instead of the vice grip rut of circular indecisive thinking. The improvement is noticeable.

[@NotTheUnsub]

That was an exciting game. Great narration and yes definitely I want to see more. I was surprised that he didn't swing his rook over to attack like you thought. Loved the part when you said that you were looking to use his time against him!

[@lordenoch0]

She fascinates a whole lot of 18-year-old guys.

[@Philbert-s2c]

Not just 18 year olds...

[@RVMD95]

And not just with her chess. This young lady is the whole package.

[@xtolhim]

@@Philbert-s2c and us 58's. 😅

[@AlexLmcool]

@@xtolhim WTF you could be her grandpa. Wake up !

[@xtolhim]

@@AlexLmcool There's nothing wrong with appreciating beauty, Alex.

[@bipmix]

really good play! seems like your confidence helps eliminate time...great job, congrats!

[@Newbie.y]

This is the first time that I saw Anna played so good SHES ON FIRE!

[@truthpopup]

I think the blitz time control tends to make chess superficial, and that the rapid time control would allow for more strategic thinking.

[@It-b-Blair]

Agreed, a rematch in classic would be cool.

[@JulianHedonist]

I wonder what Gustav was thinking when you entered your hyper focus mode, lmao. Great game, please keep us updated on your progress in this tournament!

[@Minder777]

This was some excellent narration, Anna!

[@hiddencuber2250]

Anyone noticed that She took a picture with IShowSpeed after he won Streamer of the year award.

[@trz_lewis]

i was about to comment that ahahah

[@plbeatriz]

Oh my goodness, you are playing so fiercely!!!! Your mom and dad must be so proud omg

[@cellistefly]

Of course I enjoyed it! SOLID! Definitely interested in more of the blitz tournament.

[@sonericss]

Good game Anna! Poker face as always high quality! Your style of commenting on your thoughts on the development of a chess battle is unsurpassed! Continue to create like this! Thank you

[@tbremard]

The guy is not acting like warrior. Warriors remain until the fatal death !

[@njvalueinvestor]

You have a very steady poker face

[@skiddwister9143]

Good practice for the 2 tournaments later this month, Anna!

[@spudjuice9314]

Gustav never stood a chance. Anna had him glamored before the 1st move was played.

[@mplussant]

…almost unfair, isn’t it…

[@jqxok]

In Swedish you can say "den sorgligaste löparen i universum", but in English you would have to add a definite article and make it "the saddest bishop in *the* universe."

Yes, more games in this tournament. Much prefer live matches vs computer generated games. Your commentary is always a nice accompaniment.

[@svenjonsson4275]

It's so Intresting watching your games and I learn so much from It. GREAT start of the tournament Anna I'm confident 2025 will be the year for YOU. Take care

[@Humfreeee]

CONGRATS ANNA! 🎉🎉🎉 YOU DESERVED THE STREAMER AWARD

[@dan92677]

I always enjoy watching your posts !

[@KaranDeuinva-x4f]

Every second of this is stunning, just hypnotizing.

[@G.M.1944]

You gave him the prettiest of smiles as you stood up, and I he didn’t even look: his loss because that was a beautiful smilin’ face he could have seen !

[@gastonmolina4271]

Yes i wanna see more videos of this tournament

[@DanielPittaluga]

2:12 - Did you consider sacrificing your bishop after she castles? It might throw her completely off balance-haha! There are some fascinating ideas that follow, like Knight to h4. That’s the move I’d go for!

[@Pratyut]

This fun chat created a laugh over here at Thailand. and someone today at the library said, "The Anna that played the cow opening?"

[@twindl89]

Dingy, Dingy, Dong i told him to be more careful

[@sodertorn-4cm]

More games please!!

[@alessandrozigliani2615]

They look like brother and sister to be honest.

[@davidw4781]

I thought Anna is an only child.

[@zen1752]

Yeah, well done. GG Yes, I always like watching games in tournaments. Please do more Anna, if you can.

[@Lawrence_writer]

Very interesting. Thanks for posting.

[@michaelmassaro4375]

Gustav did not orchestrate any kind of attack on your king not for nothing his pieces set up but no offense happening . Nice endgame bringing your rooks to e1 forcing him to lose the Queen . Hope you are enjoying your time playing chess there in Sweden have a great day hope to see more games

[@meneerhalfwerk7096]

Summary: They were smiling alot.

[@YesPlatinum]

My team played against his in the Swedish Junior Chess League. We lost to their team although my teammate beat him

[@danielroberts8721]

Liked the game, and I saw the Rb4 move and thought White was maybe better as the Black kingside was denuded, but I think that White has to get the Rook to g4,come what may, with Bh6 threats, after a Rook doubling by Black I thought maybe Rg3 and Nf5 looked complicated to me, instead of Bf4, Bc1 still retains options of taking the Rook to the Kingside. after a5 by Black and Rb2 the whole White strategy unwinds. Nicely played by Black, but early on it seemed to me that there may have been insufficient Kingside cover. Maybe …e5 at some point made sense instead. I have watched this on silent, so I will now listen as I see the commentary mentions analysis. Anyway, nicely played by Black and efficiently finished off.

[@lordenoch0]

Some day they will make a chess movie about her starring Anya Taylor-Joy called "The Cow".

[@LearnMusclescom]

Question… why couldn’t he have attacked by using his dark square bishop to take the h6 pawn? And then bring his queen over and also his rook. It seemed that most of your pieces were blocked from being able to defend the king side 🤔

[@mhghuwe]

Que pedo con la pista de audio JAJAJJAJAJ

[@jamesduggan7200]

nice - I enjoyed watching; thanks

[@aishwarnadar6178]

Fun fact:- If you search the cow opening in google, the generative ai will show something funny.

[@mitchkatz4918]

at 5:29 I was thinking moving knight to thretaten rook

[@gdffdhewqrad6559]

Waiting for the rematch

Can you make a video on chess sets materials like marble.wood. buffalo horn ?

Oi Anna :) Gostei bastante que o vídeo tem faixa de áudio de vários idiomas, eu acompanho o canal muito tempo, assistindo do 🇧🇷

Hey Anna, love ur videos an ur accent

[@timothysorenson8701]

I believe Swedish is weird with universe. Största stjärnan I universum Vs Störstas stjärnan I universet. That is perhaps why you dropped the "the" from your sentence talking.

[@jamesharvey-j5f]

solutions dont always present themselves at the beginning

[@robbeny6743]

At 7:17 , after bF4, wasn't kD5 a good fork for black?

[@DeaconCheung-eh5jg]

More games please!!!!

[@scottcampbell5536]

Great game and content as always Anna :)

[@ernestgolden3864]

I'm not very good at chess. Would moving your knight to fork his bishop and rook been a stronger move instead of attacking the rook with pawn?

[@ernestgolden3864]

I see you won. But was curious on your thoughts

[@Buffoonwalkr]

What chess piece set are these? I’m looking to buy some with wide bottoms and chunky pawns

[@Meaganttv]

Could have been much like convenient for black had he played Rg4 I believe.
