These videos are very helpful because you are teaching in real time and is on the field when you actually get good at anything. Way better than other channels that only show fake scenarios ," if you play this your opponent plays this and if you do this, let's say your opponent plays this then you do this this and that"
insanely valuable video, would love to see you make this a series :) Always find 10 and 15 minute rapids extremely enjoyable to watch because it gives us plebs some more time to think as well. Commentary on blitz games is always a bit lacking
I love learning things to look out for like “the dark square pawns are blocking the dark square bishop” over more openings courses. Makes chess a bit more fun for me :)
What a clean game and simple explanation... You made it look so easy!! Indeed to evolve from 1900 to 2000+ you have to start thinking deeper into your opponents ideas and responses, counter tactics etc .. great job
If you look ahead and you see that you are going to lose, you have not looked ahead far enough. If you look ahead and you do not know who is going to win, you have not looked ahead at all 🙂
Playing a game in real time and explaining the moves is a lot tougher than it sounds; the explanations often times put yourself into time pressure. Nice game where you made it look easy :)
Very good content. It seems it'svery important calculating, seeing the board widely and sort out what the opp is up to. I think I'm settled around 1600's and this isn't something i do. Great lesson thanks!
I was 10 minutes in before realizing this was a live game. Insane flex, and skills. I definitely learned that it's okay to think a bit more before moving. If Anna can do it, so can I?? 🤣🙏
Yes keep giving us videos where you walkthrough your games telling us your every move. I learn something new every time. Plus the fact you are so sweet and adorable!
This was a super interesting and helpful video Anna. As a player practicing against 1500 level right now, for me to understand how you apply logic assessing the middle game around threats, probable next moves and best options is very useful and interesting. More videos like this please!
I like talk through videos. I'm 89, a 1300 and now living retired in SC after the NYC and Jersey rat race. You talk and think very quickly so it is difficult to follow. However, with stop, go, back up, and fwd on my computer I can play your moves and thought processes multiple times until "Je Comprend". Thanks a lot. Keep up the good work.
I love this format as much as I love watching your channel Anna! It's good to hear what goes on in your brain! I know how your gears rotate, how your transmission transmits too!!
This was great learning for me. I paused between the moves to come up with my move and then hear her ideas. As a 1550 I was proudly able to conclude the same moves quite often but I had to use waaay more time, I also completely missed a couple critical moves despite that I used more time. My calculation is definetly much worse, I get lost when many pieces get traded and I am much slower.
Love these videos. I've noticed that when I get to the middle game and we both have decent positions, I sometimes have no clear idea what to do next. You talked a little about opening theory helping in the early middle game. I'd love to hear more about that, if you're so inclined.
Hello Anna. This video is a perfect chess lesson for lower intermediate players. Thank you for sharing your thought process. Congratulations! Keep up the good work.
Lower ratings too please! I’ve played casually for a while and just started digging deeper and I could use all the help I can get. I’m around 600 elo in rapid, which is what I’ve just started. Did mostly daily games before. Haven’t played enough blitz for it to be accurate.
It's funny to see that only in a few video I watched, I noticed at 14:29 your elocution sounded just so much like your mother :) Nice game ! I didnt play chest since 20 years (I'm 30) and your videos give me motivation to try it again. Especially your video about -800 rating where you gave me the overall goal I missed to have in a game opening: Move everything forward and bring out knight and bishop then castle. Thank you for your greats commented games, keep the nice work !
Was an interesting video as an intermediate player, from what I see 2200 players, also talking about the opponent, see more in depth, for example you immediately realised he could trap your knight and it was indeed what he did the move after, they are better positionally\strategically and recognise better which rook, knight, bishop is good or bad and hence know which are better off traded and kept, just the first things that came to mind here. Also, that blunder you show towards the end, looks to me like it wasn't easy to find the move to punish it, sacrificing that pawn to decoy the bishop away and then being able to pin knight and rook required some in depth look at the following moves, so not surprised the opponent missed it.
It makes me realize how many things there are to consider during a game and that all of this must become an acquired reflex in order to become an excellent chess player. Is there a kind of recipe that tells us how to develop this reflex step by step from beginner to a level of mastery? For example, you mentioned a routine of checking for possible checks, then captures, then forced moves, etc. There are, of course, a lot and lot of other things to consider. Thank you for another very informative and helpful video.
13:20, after that seems you were surprised that the opponent didn't defend the pawn, but from what I can see, the only other place the bishop could've gone to in order to still defend it was e8, and by attacking it with your king, the bishop would've been trapped, I think the opponent realised this and went for the other move, sacrificing a pawn rather than eventually losing the bishop.
Lol! You have to appreciate how high level this is. Timed. Live streaming. Chess. And EXPLAINING. I just played a 560 match with my buddy watching and trying to explain a 3 set move I have planned to sacrifice a rook to draw the king out it's impossible. "Just watch, bro." Is a little different than a 15 minute treaty on real time analysis...lol i do enjoy Anna's content.
Never expected someone to explain & think each move with such clarity that too in a 10 minute game where you can run into time trouble pretty quickly.
@@chessgains8075 Im watching him sometimes and i think his channel is the best channel to learn how chess works.
@@marcelmattern7722 yes totally! I've made the most elo gains thanks to his videos
@@chessgains8075 Too fast 4 Me. Seemed as if Anna got 2 consecutive moves. I'll just watch the next vid- cool beans.
her english is really good!
Danya also does this very well
These "this is what I'm thinking" videos are VERY helpful. More please 🙂
Indeed
Ditto!
Excellent. Thank you. I feel better already....
You can also try to watch Daniel Naroditsky's speedrun series.
I think these videos are obnoxious. I keep wanting to see well thought out tutorials and all I can find are people playing games.
I could honestly listen to Anna narrating her chess games all day
Weirdo
Even a dictionary
@@casewhite5048 what about a Swedish dictionary? 🤔
!scream ))
simp
I aspire to be able to think as clearly as you do Anna. You make it look easy👏
LIkewise bruh
@@mythbuster6126 even if anna adopts me it's not sure if I can reach 2000+..
It's amazing how you didn't want to give up the pawn and later whole game was influenced by that pawn
Please make this a series, where you explain each move and your thought process while playing.

I can tell you love talking about the moves. Thanks, it was good teaching, I hope you do more explainers.
Love the way you describe your game. It's so clear and instructive, I'm actually learning from this a lot!
Great game, very educational and amazing explanations, love your content.
No it was not, she can do it better.... The opening was not good.

this is awesome! the way you played the queen trade sequence and Operation Save the Knight were really instructive, thank you!!
It was very instructive. You explained very thoroughly ,what I learned was that there is not just one good move at any given turn.
Very good content. It seems it'svery important calculating, seeing the board widely and sort out what the opp is up to. I think I'm settled around 1600's and this isn't something i do. Great lesson thanks!
I'm just amazed how flawless this video was.
i loved this video ! it looked pretty intense to explain your moves with so many details and calculate at the same time so big gg for the video !!
Yeah, Anna finally made 2200, must be from all the effort to make these videos. Congrats
14:32 bishop to h3 is a beautiful checmate :) lovely video thanks Anna!
Yeah just saw that myself so came.looking for comments
....but this also explains why I'm not a 2200. Bishop takes rook 🤣🤣🤣
@@tonybarnes ohhhhh i didn't realise that
Ummm no.
exactly. although there's still Bd1, then Rxd1#
I’ve learned the most from you over anyone else on UA-cam! You’re a Queen!!
Props on your channel. It's a lot of fun. Love the smack talk with chess hustlers.
I was 10 minutes in before realizing this was a live game. Insane flex, and skills. I definitely learned that it's okay to think a bit more before moving. If Anna can do it, so can I?? 🤣🙏
Anna is a GM kid so nothing is impossible for her .
@@RUSSIA-007 No she isn't. She's a WFM. Woman Fide Master
@@RUSSIA-007 she is not a gm

@@elias-ee9kn no, she is woman fide master. That’s nowhere near fide master strength.
This is fantastic. Thank you. Much better than other youtubers who always only say "I'm gonna go here now, I'm gonna go here now" :)

However, with stop, go, back up, and fwd on my computer I can play your moves and thought processes multiple times until "Je Comprend". Thanks a lot. Keep up the good work.
I think this format where you explain your logic is so beneficial for my overall game. Plus your cute and easy to listen to :)
This is a fantastic video. Thank you. I'm definitely going to watch this again tomorrow morning on the treadmill at the gym.
I love this format as much as I love watching your channel Anna!
It's good to hear what goes on in your brain!
I know how your gears rotate, how your transmission transmits too!!
Absolutely brilliant. Great to see how a master works.
Love the video. Very informative. Your very talented at explaining things.
Love your videos Anna 🇧🇷
Very helpful, thank you! I enjoyed this rating, since the combinations from both sides are more thought out
I was waiting for this serie ^^ I found almost all the moves except the back rack checkmate threat
This was great learning for me. I paused between the moves to come up with my move and then hear her ideas. As a 1550 I was proudly able to conclude the same moves quite often but I had to use waaay more time, I also completely missed a couple critical moves despite that I used more time.

This was an excellent instructional video. Please do more. Thank you!!
This is not only a game of chess. This is a MASTERCLASS

It’s insane how you defeated this person while teaching us! Wow, you are awesome !
Really Thanks! i always enjoy for your brilliant speech into explaining chess 🤩
Good video and excellent idea to try to cover thought process during the game. Please do more, I'm sure it will be very helpful
Hello Anna. This video is a perfect chess lesson for lower intermediate players. Thank you for sharing your thought process. Congratulations! Keep up the good work.
Awesome video Anna! Thanks! You're going to do big things!
bigger* things!
I found this very instructive and would love more. I’m around 1800 for many years and can’t seem to advance.
Brilliant video, learnt so much!

Pretty impressive that you could play and explain what's going on the same time and still winning.
Excellent. Thank you, Anna.
Talk away! I really like this format and learn a lot from it. Thanks.
This was very helpful, thanks Anna!
12:01 "So actually my opponent ends up sacrificing... THE ROOK!!!"
