When I was being taught chess as a kid the knight’s L-shaped movement was explained to me as ‘clippety-clippety-clop’. I still say it to myself in my head every time. I’m 39.
The knight always landing on the other colour is a good way to avoid knight forks in a time scramble. Two pieces can only ever be forked by a knight if they're on the same colour as one another
Only people who didn't learn chess traditionally talk about a diagonal part of a knight's move. Traditionally it's always taught as two forwards then one to the side. Some manuals never even occasionally refer to it as one to the side then two forwards (which would yield the same result). There are often diagrams showing the eight moves a knight can make depicting it as forwards then sideways (and not the other way 'round). People who claim it's just one forwards and one diagonal (in either order of your choice) are trying to show that they're clever because they can visualise it a different way, were taught by someone lazy who wanted to show off, or are trying to teach you something that will annoy proper chess players later if you brag about knowing it to show off.
Tissues! Nick you said the "waste baskets are full". Well, I never. Reminds me of Michael McIntyre "waste paper basket". Not new paper but waste paper!!!! Made me chuckle.

Hi Jodi & Nick, would you consider reacting to a full episode of QI like you do with Countdown? There are some classic episodes including stars such as Carrie Fisher, Daniel Radcliffe, and Trevor Noah
The person she was quoting was Martin Amis. I wonder how he, Stephen, Victoria, and an unknown Ricky Gervais all ended up in a poker game tho. Ricky's breakthrough was around year 2000 so it had to be before that. I'm pretty sure Victoria would also have been unknown at that time which makes it even more wild.
They played on a celebrity episode of Channel 4's Late Night Poker broadcast on 6th October 2000. The finishing order, from 1st to 7th place, was Anthony Holden, Al Alvarez, Martin Amis, Victoria Coren, Patrick Marber, Stephen Fry and Ricky Gervais

Well hatless Nick and stoner Jodie, that Doug cartoon was written by someone existential angst because they reference French philosophers and loads of esoteric things that kids just wouldn’t understand. I miss that kind of intellectual tv.
Not sure if you guys know this or not, but Victoria Coren-Mitchell (blonde poker player) is married to David Mitchell There's a great clip of them both on WILTY
If we're really following the rules of allowable knight moves, the answer is 64. They just all need to be the same color, because you can't take your own piece.
Victoria was asked after winning $US500,000 "what she was going to do with the money", she replied "pay off her mortgage", apparently the printed story quoted her and said this was the reason women should not play poker!
The skill in poker is more playing the other players body language telling how good a hand they have and not showing ya own tells and when to fold , play or bluff . It’s just a different skill . Although u do read the playing in chess to some degree
Both require skill. Chess is a zero sum perfect information game, while poker is an information gathering and risk management game. Both requite skill and understanding, just in different ways.
Victoria has won over $2.5m in televised poker tournaments.
The funny thing was she couldn't read Lee Macks tale on WILTY about breaking his wife's cooking pot? Laughed so hard as she was wrong.
Plus she's an absolute fox.

Victoria's father was a staple of British entertainment for many years and she is a class act
Martin Amis is an author. Search his name in any book store. Son of Kingsley Amis, also an author, his most famous work was probably Lucky Jim.
and passed not too long ago. A great writer.

A quick yodeling lesson:
"Knock! Knock!"
"Who's there?"
"Little Old Lady"
I haven't played chess for a VERY long time, but here in the UK at school, that's how it was explained. Up 1 diagonal 1
yep for me too
Jodi ha such a nice smile, you can tell they are such a perfect couple and genuinely happy with each other

QI is such a great show. I've even got the book. Its only half an hour so maybe you could do 2 parts of a complete show 👌
You can have speed chess. You have click down a button on a two face countdown clock,every time you make a move.
My father taught me 40yrs ago & I'm still learning. Great reaction. Love you guys
Have a look at the quiz show that Victoria presents called Only Connect. The questions are all fiendishly difficult

The knight can i either go up or down 1 and across 2 or up or down 2 and across 1, so 3 but never in a straight line

I play chess using the Richard Richard method, but it always ends up with my face in the fridge.
😂😁
there are also tons of different poker versions but rarely special house rules for chess.
There are special house rules for chess up until you’re about 6 years old
@@andywatts8654 There are special house rules until you learn chess* doesn't matter if you're 6 or 60.

Although the egyptian version it allegegeldy came from, was very different.
I always remembered the knight as it was told to me originally, move two then one to the side.
One straight then one diagonal
I was taught the Knight moves " one, two and one to the side".

@@sloth_energy Oh thank you I never even knew that was a thing. Hopefully I will be able to find it somewhere.
No, the maximum number is 64. If they're all the same colour, none of them can take each other.
Either way is fine. L or 2 up 1 d. Chess is taught with both movements for a Knight
You done good nick, essentially got it. Arithmetic schmerithmetic
Chess can be fast if it wants to. «Coughs in 'Bullet'!» 😅

You can actually put 64, 32 of each colour, because they can only take the other colour pieces.

I do an "L" but I guess it don't matter how you get there as long as it is a legal move.
Perhaps Russian players call it "ghe" 'cos their letter Г is shaped like that?

Chess and Poker aren’t really comparable, given one requires skill and the other just pure luck!

Clearly not true, you wouldn't get good players who consistently win if that was the case.
