Here's my thoughts on this blunder: He saw his rook was getting attacked but calculated that it would be better to take the h4 pawn instead of moving the rook to a safe sqaure? why?

[@AshuToast]

Same thought

[@user-ws7kp1yh9l]

He thought he could gain two pawns for the exchanged?

[@adityakayet9056]

I think he saw that after g5 and nf6 white was better

[@altrfryd5859]

I think he understood that he is only 14 years old and facing a world champion doesn't make it any easier

[@itchyscorpion7830]

@@altrfryd5859 he's an IM. He is more than capable of finding the best moves in this position

[@dacianbonta2840]

"tragic"?!? a bit hyperbolic, init?

[@SanjitDoesEverything]

Mayank is a very good player tho hes one of 2 IM's in Assam and has played really well in other tournaments too.

What was the purpose of this video? Better highlight the problems of Hou Yifan. Wenjun isn't worth world champion

[@user-ex7kv9fs3k]

Ju wenjun is adorable

[@luohao2321]

she's the women's world champion. Hou Yifan is semi retired.
