I love how Karpov respected the child enough to not go easy on him

[@dasiro]

If I didn't know any better and ignore his age, I could imagine refusing the draw was his only opportunity to see how a grand-master finishes the job. Since there were no points involved getting to learn from the best is more valuable than a pity draw from a gentleman. If he was 23 instead of 3 he would not have been offered the draw and as such this was a lack of respect to his chess-intelligence.

[@killtroman]

@@dasiro But the boy responded with balls to two draw offers. I think neither of them were bad. Karpov did what someone who wants to avoid traumatizing a boy with a crushing defeat would do (he is a 3-year-old boy who everyone called a prodigy, one must act with caution in those cases since those experiences remain for life, and Karpov had to read his chess to understand his mood), and the 3 year old responded twice that he was fine and wanted to continue. Now that I see the context, I do think that people have gone a little overboard with the meme, the kid put up a good fight, either of them would have crushed me in 3 moves, with some luck (or pity) I would have lasted 5.

When there are children with these conditions it is usually because parents are involved for different reasons, but this can end badly if not handled properly by the parents. This can quickly kill the child's interest (in what the parents want) or make them feel pressured by their parents' expectations. Yet the important thing would always be to support the child's interests, as long as they are not self-destructive.

[@mickthegeek875]

Got to hand it to Karpov, he didn't see Misha as a 3-year-old, he saw him as an equal, maybe not in skill but definitely in commitment and tenacity. The kid may have lost, but the respect and admiration he earned will be invaluable.

[@anibalrangel2612]

Everyone who knows Karpov, knows he's a loving human being. He treated Osipov as a gentleman, let him played his game and even offered him a draw (not necessary for Karpov).

lmao I recently played chess against my nephews of age 5 and age 3 (recently turned 4), I was shocked that they even knew the rules! Okay to be fair the three year-old did get confused/cheat a few times but still the fact he even knew how to play at all was pretty insane. Or, wait, maybe it was just the three year-old I played against, though the five year-old knows how to play too and is apparently good at it? Can't remember. Geez, when I was in elementary school I tried joining the Chess Club but I was probably 8 or 9 (or 10) and I STILL couldn't seem to really figure out how to play! It was hard for me to remember what all the pieces did and I kept losing against my peers, so I ended up dropping out of Chess Club lol.

First time i see whole context behind a meme (and the actual game). As someone wrote, this was so well done by karpov. Showing respect to a kid, but also teaching him to accept reality of his situation when playing. All while laughing and having a good time. Also, hats down to the kid, im not a chess expert, but he didnt do much wrong. At the age of 3, he played one of the greatest of all time, a guy who can still beat anyone in the world at his old age.
