"Little girl beat 20 folks in chess♟"

[@PrimaMapleSyrup]

People don't understand that she's not keeping it all in her mind. She just looks at the board and makes the best move. The moves that made the board come to this position are past, they don't matter.

[@Andrewallday]

You have no idea about how chess works do you?

[@lefcso]

​@@Andrewallday? You don't need past moves to evaluate the best one in a given scenario

[@jeepmanxj]

​@@Andrewalldaychess is a game of future planning and setup. All that matters is where the pieces are and where they are likely to be moved. You bait and lay traps. It doesn't matter if a rook took a pawn 3 moves ago. It matters where that rook is sitting now and that the pawn is gone, not how it came to be

[@bachvandals3259]

Chess is 70% memorize, 30% calculate. You "calculate ahead" then save it.

[@asher2304]

@@Andrewalldayhe’s right lol, what she’s doing isn’t really all that special especially if she’s playing people way lower rated than herself which I assume she is based on how fast she won

I never understand how people get chocolate on their face. They either have to repeatedly miss their mouth or melt the chocolate in their fingers and then repeatedly touch their face for some reason.

[@sophiemendez5567]

The same reason you sometimes get poop accidently on your hands while wiping. It's called being oblivious to what's going on in your ass surroundings. She probably wanted to share what happened to her teacher so intensely that she didn't maintain focus on other things.

[@sophiemendez5567]

Why did KZbin/autocorrect repeat the word ass again?

[@JzargoTodd]

I know like learn how to aim

[@violetskies14]

It's called being a child with developing motor control. They do miss their mouths a little while eating a lot of the time especially with messy foods or when they're doing something in addition to eating. That's why typically as children get older they get less and less food around their mouths while eating.

[@MillyThe_Rat]

​@@sophiemendez5567 I.. do not get poop on my hands, never... Are you okay?

[@IdealX-fr4eg]

I can't play chess but you can be damn sure I can eat some chocolate without it covering half my face

[@JDYTC]

I guess you’re not a kid anymore. But I bet you’re not a father either 🙃

[@garfield2130]

She’s a kid, they did it on purpose to remind the audience how young she really is despite her adult-level genius.

[@ImARealCat]

​@@garfield2130shes also in an orphanage so shes probabaly never had chocolate like that before

[@Josh-nm7bs]

What a idiotic thing to say this is setting in a different time. Anyway, she was poor and probably didn’t have chocolate a lot. It’s not like you can run down and get it like you can today for a dollar. Different times.

[@michaeljiggs2053]

If you haven't watched this mini series it's worth every second.

[@neovalenzuela417]

a knight-rook combination to mate means real talent cause any pair that has a knight in it is the hardest checkmate to ever do, my chess coach said this herself.

[@TheWhooshman]

"How does her mind handle all this" pretty easy actually. Only takes thousands of games, seeing damn near every possible play and just knowing what to do strategy wise. OK, so not so easy lol. But I feel I could do this with Cribbage cause I've played THOUSANDS of games on my phone. Roughly 6-8k. You have to eat, sleep, and breathe the game

[@cashdingo6386]

I salute you Lord Of Cribbage, a more worthy pursuit there is not!

[@Obi_Swagg_Kenobi]

[@pegse536]

Sure bro

[@lunyfool872735]

Chess is not a skilled game but a memory game. Only real time your skilled is if your playing for the first few games and see how it’s played without reading about openings and so on. If I’m not mistaken Bobby fisher was frustrated because all you had to do was remember all the moves.

[@nerdsunscripted624]

Exactly. I’m not even a chess genius, far from it, and I can tell a winning position or a losing position from any point in a game just by looking at the pieces. You don’t have to keep track of every game, you just have to have good pattern recognition and be good at chess puzzles lol

[@MrJohnchatfield]

I should watch this series again

[@anthonyrossiter1374]

PEAK show (The Queen's Gambit)

[@daryllaksa1518]

Tbh what Magnus did (or hikaru i forgot which) a few months back was more impressive as they has played against 3 boards but blindfolded which is more mentally challenging due to needing to memorise every single pieces position at all times simultaniously

[@HomeVidEdd]

No one cares. That's not relevant here.

[@daryllaksa1518]

[@jshorts9152]

Never watched the show but idk if she and the others think weird but as a chess player I've never when playing chess thought they left backward pawns all over the place and forks every feels like movie people trying to sound like they know chess but without committing to specifics

[@swellshark6575]

Well Garry Kasparov was advisor for the show so I’m pretty sure they knew what they were doing.

[@rzszcz3972]

if I remember correctly, it was just some random school club and it was 1970 or sth. So I think the level there was pretty low

[@thelosts9940]

Backwards pawn is more of a Theme to exploit at 1900 fide and above

[@specific78]

The fact that the character is a chess strategy genius doesn’t jive with a complete inability to keep her face clean while eating

[@muse5722]

[@springer131]

How many chess prodigies do you know personally lol

[@echo4428]

Children, even prodigies, are still children

[@violetskies14]

Kids are still kids. Even prodigies or kids with something like autism. They still have developing motor control and trouble keeping their faces clean while eating. They might be quicker than a regular kid to feel uncomfortable afterwards and want their faces clean, but their face will still get dirty while eating.

[@emeraldphotography7363]

I remember an old friend in elementary school. He was a great artist. If I tell him to draw an aircraft carrier. He would draw one in 30 minutes with every detail possible. He was amazing. But he always had boogers sticking out or very visible. He just wouldn't do anything about it. LOL!
