      It's because he doesn't think it through quite long enough. I don't want to do too much backseat gaming, as it's obvious NL is learning and having fun either way. But his first opponent here wasn't very good. And NL _still_ goes for the queen trade way too quickly.

      One of the funniest segments I have seen in a long time. Just every swing of the eval bar, with him like, ok then we do this!, no, the computer is like "what are you doing?". And the ending, "well we deserved to lose that about 20 times" The vibe he had with this chess series was just goated

    41:18 I think the main reasons the computer doesn't like b3 is because, for one, it puts literally all of your pawns on light squares. Leaving them to maybe become targets for that light squared bishop. And the second reason is that it's the endgame. Your King's a fighting piece. It wants to be active too. So, it didn't activate your king and it created potential weaknesses.
