      Can you put the time in wich he "acknowledged that he lost and put the piece back to look at the position to see what could've been done differently"?

    Couple of responses to the comments:
    Somewhere around the 1:30 mark, I'm not going to bother to look at the exact time, Cornbread knocks over some pieces, and place his rook inside his king. This was not cheating. It was a fairly fundamental chess play called casting. If you watch, the kid castles as well either just before or just after cornbread. Furthermore, after he was checkmated once before, he wasn't trying to cheat by resetting the pieces. Checkmate was called, everyone knows who won. ~ Cornbread let the kid win both games. It's hard to tell in the first game, but if you watch Cornbread's body language at around 7:00 all the way to the check mate, he's smiling to himself looking the kid down waiting for him to see the opening. It was sweet. In the second game, it should be obvious the Cornbread let him win. The kid was just trying to trade Queens, the kid's queen was unprotected, there was a pawn right there to take - anybody's who played chess knows he saw the checkmate coming

I think it's pretty obvious he let the kid win, but it seems like winning he game isn't as important to him as being a role model to the kid. 👍🏻

    I recently taught my 5 year old to play chess. He learned the rules and starting ideas quite quickly, then started watching beginner lessons on UA-cam. Within a week he was using notation and terminology (“your pawn on b7 is hanging dad!”), applying beginner tactics, and had learned several types of checkmate. Thanks to UA-cam and other internet resources, young kids can now learn chess quite easily. It is a great time for the game.

    Is his father telling him, "Oh, you better see that, John," at 16:16 -- right before John pulls his hand back from the pawn he was about to capture? If so, that's not exactly kosher.

    • @WFDConnor
      @WFDConnor 8 років тому +13

      Seems that he begins saying that before the kid moves and then retracts. Seconds later the child confirms that he did see that and didn't need the fathers input.
      Also he's a kid so the game wasn't "kosher" to begin with.

    • @FurtherReview
      @FurtherReview 8 років тому +15

      Well, if he gave his boy any advice on what piece to move next or what to watch out for, he was cheating, even if he retracted the statement. Look at how John reaches and suddenly pulls his hand back, presumably from whatever move he originally intended to make. The fact that he's a kid doesn't change anything as far as the game's legitimacy -- kids play adults in chess all the time ... and often win!

    • @WFDConnor
      @WFDConnor 8 років тому +2

      That queen trade would've been hugely favorable for John , seeing as after that he would have a stacked pawn on the H-file in front of his king. It would've been game over anyway. to say he "let the boy win" is just not giving John the credit he deserved.
