i love how ur mom is like “this is ridiculous” and ur dad is like “this is ridiculous i’m gonna try this”
😂
This is how every dad should be 😂
El padre español 😅😅
He will play any crazy opening under the sun! He is spanish Tal after all :)
You have to be creative and open minded like Anna's dad to be able to create a new chess opening.
Anna: "and now we go Knight e2" Mr. Cramling: *puts glasses on concernedly*
Being a descendant of spanish people, I can tell the look of concern on an elder family member. That was one if I've ever seen one. LOL.
Actually it is GM Bellon. GM Crammling is Anna'a Mother. Anna normally uses her mother's last name
@@sgeskinner GM Bellon Lopez?
@@alinevennemann1904 Correct. Look up Spanish naming conventions for complete explanation of his full name
Mr Bellón; Ms. Cramling🤣🤣
Pia is REALLY worried that people might one day call this the "Cramling Opening" and associate it with her 🤣
🤣
HAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
An opening in chess is only brought about by the response of the other persons moves. Starting off with white and doing those moves just for the sake of moving into that position makes no sense. First white makes a move then Black and so on, each moving in turn to the response of the last move. Improvements are found over time to the persons last move and so on. What is considered the opening in chess? The opening in chess refers to the first several moves of the game. "Book" chess openings refer to common sequences of moves that have been studied and are generally well-known by professionals. Many such lines are well documented in authoritative references like The encyclopedia of Chess Openings (ECO) and others You cannot just make up an opening just for the sake of it and call it what you like. It has to be played at top level chess in general and played for a reason, i.e a sequences of moves. The sequence of moves are played for a reason and again not just for the sake of it and calling it what you like. Hell if that were the case all of the people playing chess could make up a name and call it what they like.... It has to make sense.. I think my sweet you might have mad cows disease. RANT OVER.
lol
@patrickdoyle9369 Well yes and no. There are certain system openings e.g. The London System, which ‘makes sense’ against the vast majority of possible responses. It may not be optimal but it’s fine. I’m not saying that applies to this opening, but you made a sweeping statement.
I love the pure glee on Anna's face when her father says he'll give it a try, followed by Pia's horror when he says he might play it in classical 😂
Pia before seeing the opening: I find it surprising that this has not been played yet. Pia after seeing the opening: Ah.
Yeah she's supposed to be thinking ahead... but I think we saw this before she did.
GM Pia is usually correct
I recently joined a chess club and am still amazed what GMs are capable off. The thing that stands out is to imagination of what an opening might turn into in the long run. Not the exact moves but the general layout of the position that might occur. It a long way up that hill for sure. And having so enthusiastic people like Anna helps a lot.
@@MrDahunta in this particular case, you are wasting two moves jumping around with the knights and putting both your bishops in prison. GMs are awesome, but even the 7 year old me could see how this doesn't work (albeit after losing the 30th match with this).
"online you can play if you want, but not classical no" - spoken by the boss in the house :D

She's like "you will not ruin your rating just to appease your daughter!"
Bahaha the 2 comments on this is funny
She's like "don't bring shame upon this family"
... and then Juan quietly says he'll do it anyway. 😂
Mom has the Swedish chill and polite vibe, and Dad has the adventurous Spanish flair. A perfect combo for the cow opening! :-)
Umm sir do we leave it void
Actually cool chess oponents
I just won my first game using the Cow Opening :) Thank you ! It was a 5 minutes game and I am rated 1500. I was actually playing really bad, but he did seem confused :D
Lol way to go lol
Did your opponent use the Bull defense?
Honestly, there’s value in playing an opening never before seen!
I am also 1500 and played it in 7 consequetive games. Won 6! I think people just get confused, because they've never seen it.
"Confuse the enemy" LMAO whatever works ig
This is like when you’re little and you show your parents something you think is really cool and they’re like “WOW” but in reality they’re not super impressed.
I feel seen.
!sadge
I have the same birthday as your dad 😂! And I share it with my twin brother.
@@CharcoalVictor Did you know that if there are 23 people in a randomly chosen group, there is a better than even chance that two of them will have the same birthday. For more info google "the birthday paradox"
The difference is only they actually know about what it is 😅
Mum looking at Anna as if she has completely lost her senses, Dad saying "I'm crazy enough to play anything once". A work of genius Anna!
Dad just dotes on his wee girl. So does Mammy, but she's not sentimental.
Oh, your Dad is amazing. So is your Mum, but your Dad promising to play it - ❤❤❤❤
It makes sense, a grand master going for a weird (i.e. "new" or "bad") move can really upset even the strongest players, especially if they know that said GM has "been looking into it", see Euwe vs Botwinnik 28 dec 1963 (blind), for instance. Yes, that one is on KZhead, with that spelling of Botvinnik's name. (they played in German, comments in Dutch, illustrated in chess for the audience).
@@Official_Anna_Cramling. I don't know what that means!
@@blindknitter It's a common scam from random accounts impersonating KZheadrs. Don't worry about it
Anna's enthusiasm for this game is contagious. I haven't played since I was a kid but watching this channel is really getting me interested again.
Same here I have not played in the last 30 years but Anna and he parents revived my interest. I dug out my chess books, started solving problems. A big thing for a 76 year old man. Thanks a lot.
Me as well, and I’m 62 ! Haven’t played since teens.
i saw wirtual play and wanted to play too. too bad i didn't do any studying i just play solo my rating is still stuck in the 100s haha i think i'm around 800ish.
@@takumi2023 It means you're naturally good at chess and got amazing intuition. Study one two openings and a few alternatives for your mid and end game and you'll get to 1000 easily or demote to 400. I got to 800 by only knowing the moves and catching a trick or two from here and there and now, I'm 1200, but that's many years later and been 1200 for a long time.
The love i saw between the daughter and father when he said he wants to try the opening in a tournament i almost cried. Shits beautiful
I can barely believe these are humans, seeing so much bad in the world and then seeing this family, it's like a different species made of love and joy.
@@calumjones very wholesome indeed. Returns your faith in humanity
Pia: "Yeah but it's some reason why it hasn't been played." 😂
My black King: I think I know why..
Pia is my hero 😂😂
Savage 😂
Juan: I will play it in a tournament. Pia: *Absolutely not. Not in my house and not outside of my house.* xD
So the doorstep is fine :D
@@Ttavoc that was so funny.
I'm kinda with Pia but like Juan's response. Don't play it in a tournament unless online play proves it's effectiveness. But thumbs up to try it out online. I've tried it out on computers and it does well until you get to the top engines. Stockfish rips it apart. But then again, Stockfish rips any opening apart. The Cow is definitely unconventional.
@@kenmccarty6229 I mean, Stockfish doesn't care about openings, it only cares about absolute positions. If you want to compete against Stockfish, you have to forget all you think you know about chess and play it completely differently.
Hahaha!
The excitement of announcing THE COW… with jazz hands included, Anna your positivity is simply contagious
Anna showing her parents this opening and laughing has the exact same energy as a kid showing her parents some memes on the internet and laughing.
or just anything else you came up with and are proud of but your parents are reluctant about lol. or are Anna and I the only ones who put ourselves in that position :D

I swear, Anna and her parents are some of the sweetest people ever. No wonder Anna's got such cheerful vibes
I just wish she's mic up her mom a bit better. For those of us whose hearing is sub par she is very difficult to hear because her voice is so gentle.
@@dondeb9191 turn up the volume cuh
Maybe there's something to doing what you want to do with your life, like chess, vs. doing what you don't want to do, "working for the man". As I am often, stressed out, and overly reactive.
@@michaelbauers8800 Working for who?
@@twitter.comelomhycyThe Man
Imagine the GMs who are up against Annas father researching openings he might play, and finding out they have to prep for the Cow opening :D
Whether he plays it or not, his opponents do have to consider the possibility now!
I'm not good at chess, though I've watched a fair amount. I imagine this would immediately make his opponent uncomfortable... which sounds like a good idea to me!
I felt that Anna got her crazy creativity from her Dad when he suggested f4 in the opening. It's like him saying, "If we are playing crazy, might as well go all the way".
I was once an avid tournament chess player (still play casually) in the 80's and 90's and was quite aware of Pia's accomplishments in those years (along with Chiburdanidze and Gaprindashvili). It is so nice to see Ms. Cramling with a wonderful family and an exuberant daughter that keeps her parents entertained if not a bit mystified. Best of luck to you all and I look forward to seeing Magnus Carlson essay "The Cow" at some point.
Pia with "There's a reason why it's never been played." had me 🤣. She's always so supportive and nice so this must have really upset her! 💀
it hurt anna most when pia said “i wouldn’t even play this in a blitz game” 😂
The reason it hasn't been played is the moves aren't natural, but seeing the plan to rotate the knights, and develop the bishops in place, I really like it. But it's the opposite of intuitive and breaks many rules.
I get the feeling that she might feel that its mocking everthing she knows about chess. It sorta goes against every chess fiber in her. So I agree, it probably upset her at some level but as you say, she is the queen of congeniality so even when she is "negative" she is softspoken and hesitant. But who knows, she might think its just as funny as Anna does. Its the Internetz after all.
@@perkalov it is a wicked opening that breaks SO many principles. I kinda love it.
@@valeriekeefe8898 Nahh, mate, its less shit the bongcloud but Its a meme opening. Objectively you are giving away the advantage of playing white and putting your self to -0.3, within 4 moves. You are not losing, but you have given away about half a pawn and the game havn't started yet. As Pia said, there is a reason to why no one invented this opening
Her parents are going to smile and then put the Cow opening up on the refrigerator. 😂😂😂
I keep laughing at your comment.
LOL
this comment is probably better than the opening
Your parents seem like very calm and sweet people. I can tell why you are so happy and positive as a person Anna.
You and your parents are absolutely delightful, each in your own ways. Thank all of you.
I was playing some 5 minute games last night and one of my opponents did the cow opening. It was beautiful to see.
And, since you've seen it played before I hope you had a very good defense for it. Or was your opponent playing black? Then of course you just have to attack it.
@@RingsLoreMaster just what the parents say
It was probably me !
And you concede, just for respect
@@soidnarg you punish
The comedic timing of Anna's dad putting on his glasses when she moved the knight to e2.
This video shows EXACTLY why your parents are so entertaining. I don't know which one I enjoy more. All I know is that I definitely want to see the game your dad plays with the cow.
Yes that would be realy interesting. And efter he perhaps win he can give Anna credit for it.
Great parents. They did a very good job raising you. You are lucky to have them as parents.
Dad: „I would play it in a tournament!“ Mom: „No! You can play it online! But not in a classic game!“ 😂
The Dad will loose a lot of his hairs, if he plays it in a tournament!
Today this opening was used in a classic tournament. And by a GM. And he won. I watched it live.
I love how your mom laughs every time you say "it's never been played before" with that smile that says "there is a reason this has never been played before..."
Yes the opening is drawish, but that just means an engine can defend the position. The problem is that it poses zero problems to the opposing side. You're not going to have a pleasant game trying to play this as a human
@@12jswilson only if ur over 2300 💀 which ur not
@@masteroogway2853we are 💪🏻
May I just say that I have watched many of your postings and it really is a pleasure to see such a genuinely happy family just doing their own thing and bringing pleasure to others by doing so.
I had such a huge grin on my face the entire time. This was fantastic. Happy Birthday!
This is like the parents politely praising their 3-year-old's crayon drawings, except Anna's in her 20's now and they don't find it so cute anymore. "I'll play it in one game," is basically putting it on the fridge.
She'll always be daddy's little girl, but mama's ready for her to grow up.
@@chitlitlah Is this comment a joke or something? I don't get it.
@@brycemedvin8765 It was a half joke based on the OP. Her father put it on the fridge and acted proud. Her mother was a little more blunt about thinking it wasn't all that good. It plays on the stereotype that fathers are overprotective of their daughters and find it hard to accept that they've grown up.
Anna's dad is such a legend for even considering to play this in a real game
She's right though, this is not a bad opening. It just SEEMS bad.
Yes, he will play it against a very weak player so the opening won’t matter.
@@valeriekeefe8898 it’s horrible.
I played it in the afterschool chess club I run and corrupted a generation, because every kid who tried it won. What have you done, Anna? Irish chess will never recover (and there's not that many of is to start with!) And whatever nerd made the joke about 'It's my mooooove' - thanks, the kids loved that line. Help me.
@@ronbirnbaum1968 It's not remotely horrible, if it was the engine would have shown that. It looks far far worse than it plays. After you get your bishops out to further build defense it would be hard to break through.
It's the cutest, most wholesome video I've seen in years. Thank you, Anna! Happy birthday GM Cramling!
I like how Anna is really pushing the Cow opening. T-shirts and Merch next please!
This family is absolute happiness. And for character wise, Anna is the real mix of dad and mom. She is always in between with adventure and theory with the chess. Also, she is very lucky to have this kind of supportive dad, I love their relationship :)
Her parents are a bit older then most. They are also chess players. Stable people with a lot of experience. Ideal to raise a child. I see a lot of happiness.
Cow opening soon will play in official tournaments
Between cows
"& today Magnus Carlsen played the Milky gambit declined, for the 1st time in Chess tournaments history ! Let's study that move for the next 8 hours"
What a wonderful family you have! Your mom's voice sounds so caring and your dad seems so funny. I am a fan !
Wow, great grandmaster parents, and such a lovely daughter...I am sure they are truly happy with Anna and how she turned out to have such a natural and out-going personality...:)
Anna: This has never been played before! Pia: I can tell…
Now I am DYING to see how your dad plays it in a tournament. No matters if he loses, your dad would be SO COOL if he really tries it.
Agree!!!
You suddenly care about chess that much
Speaking as a grandfather, a daughter who loves what her parents do is a treasure of the first order.
The dream, is it not?
I have no interest in being on my phone all day or sleeping on the couch out of boredom like my dad though. I love him but he has no hobbies and is not interested in finding any either... it worries me for his upcoming retirement. I'm basically the opposite and have too many hobbies...
Most love and pride between family members I've ever seen. I now know where Anna got her smile and from who.
Anna and her family are so wholesome! I never tend to stick around with youtubers for a long time, but Anna looks like a genuinely fun person, and it shows that she got her personality from two great parents. Lots of humor, some roasts for her stupid mistakes, and generally great vibes!
My thoughts exactly!
She's great but I don't think she's like either of her parents in any way. She's all about having fun but her parents seem so studious.
Mom: "Are we going to have to buy her a helmet to wear around the house?"
😂😂😂😂
Will be HER birthday present 😏
😂
Nearly spat out my drink on this one 😂
🤣
You are all so delightful! I am good at openings, and if I luck out and have a strong position near the end, I can usually end without embarrassing myself. It's the middle stuff that I'm just not good at. Making a plan. I'd love to see you make a video about how to strategize once the initial positions have been established. Thanks so much for these videos, they're very enjoyable!
aww...it's just so heartwarming to see Anna with her parents! I love this family! ❤
Your mom is funny--she's not gonna milk that cow. 🐄 😂 Happy Birthday to your sweet Dad! 🎂🎉🎈
Milk the cow is the euphemism for cow opening FTW :D
I tried the cow opening, got a winning position which I maintained all game and ended up winning. Also had an accuracy of 85.5 in the opening. It was interesting, I'll definitely play it again. For a new opening in today's times, it's really good lol.
I really like how your mom is always true to how she feels like. That's so rare to see women that are so firm and at the same time very kind. You actually got this quality from her I believe. Funny how I still watch your videos from time to time even if I'm not into chess much. You're very charismatic and whilst I'm aware people are like that nowadays for "the show" I truly believe you're very genuine. All the best to you and your family.
Love seeing the happiness between you and your parents - the chess is just an extra.
Now we need to see your dad play the cow opening against your mom😂
Can you imagine if he won?
@@blindknitter +0.3 is not something he wouldn't be able to turn around as black :)
I really want to see that.
Just what I said in my comment. I wish Anna had gotten them to play there and then!
@@SilviuBurcea1 3 tenths of a pawn is nothing.
Your Dad is very sweet! You can tell he loves you so much. (Obviously your mom does too, but it just struck me as especially noticeable in this video.) You have great parents.
You are so lucky to have grown up in a strong chess family. I love the game end I must admit I am envious of your strong family support and teaching. Great content as always Anna :)
Blimey, your parents have the sweetest patience, and so much love for you - you are blessed!
I played the "Cow Opening" today on Lichess and won and got 7 rating points. LOL. It's not a half bad opening; It does develop the knights and leaves space for bishops. Although I'm not quite sure it stands up to the highest levels, it does confuse the opponents while being somewhat sound.
How does it leave space for the bishops aren't they trapped?
@@codeallnight56514 they are never trapped since the knights will always end up on b3 and g3
Cow opening allows for some really good mooooooooooooooves!
hahahahahaha...
especially for the enemy ))
@@TheLeopard2A6 no sir, the enemy does not get good mooooooooooooooves, the best they can hope for is good moves. Boring, been done and uncreative good moves. But no good mooooooooooooooves!
Anna has me laughing until I get tears. She cracks me up. That laugh is infectious.
6:34 your laughter is so contagious and your relationship with your parents is so awesome!!!!!
Happy Birthday, Juan Bellon!!! We wish you many many more!
Probably the funniest video so far because of the reactions and then the reactions to the reactions. I will watch to see what happens if Anna's father actually uses this. I'd probably try it out. It reminds me a bit of the hippopotamus, but for white or black.
The hippopotamus can also be played with White. Chessbrah did a whole speedrun with it.
I love how they get the chess jokes. How lovely to have such an interest as a family.
Yes.
Not too bad, about -2 against kings indianish setup which was stockfish top moves or -1,5 with this setup at 3:40. Also cow opening has like 10k games by now at 1600+ lichess. Good job Anna!
Gotta love the mix of amusement and bewilderment in their reactions lmao
This was sweet to watch. Happy Birthday to your Dad!
Your parents are such good sports. I love your enthusiasm.
What a great video. Your parents seem brilliant, no wonder you seem to have turned out so well.
The sentence „I would have played it a bit differently“ lives in my head rent free…and I love it…maybe we could get some merch with it? :D
So delightful put a big smile on my face. Mum's not convinced lol. Dads enjoying winding mum up!!!! Happy Birthday Dad!!! Your family are great Anna thank you for sharing!!!
I really enjoyed this! the mom and dad seem so kind, and sweet!!!! Very enjoyable video :D very nice and happy family !!!
You are definitely a daddy's girl. He loves/ proud of his girl! Your mom cracks me up. I try to watch all of the videos with your mom. She is one smart lady.
You are so genuine and have such an inspirational family life. Don’t ever change.
I love when the parents get involved. So wholesome.
they both laughting outside and in the inside thinking where have we gone wrong
What a wonderful daughter, the parents are so lucky…can’t say enough about Anna’s personality and how smart she is, and also how she gets along with her parents..
being willing to play your daughters terrible opening at a tournament was such a great dad opening lol
I couldn't stop smiling. Delightful family interactions.
he's dad is so lovely right
Anna's enthusiasm and joie de vivre are infectious. I hope she has siblings because Ma and Pa definitely know how to make wonderful children.
Your energy and excitement about the knowledge of play is awesome 👌
This is FANTASTIC! Maybe not The Cow but seeing you and your parents in this casual setting. So much love!
I understand the principal reason your mother is not a big fan of the cow opening: your knights each take two moves to plant themselves on squares near the edge of the board where they lose the option of moving to two squares each. However I do like unexpected openings like this that can draw your opponent forward and create space behind their over-advanced line of pawns. Well done Anna! Now go win with it.
It's biggest flaw though is its difficult to attack from because u surrender a lot of space in the middle
Its not the tempos, or I should say its not just the tempos lost. Its also the fact that the squars are objectivly worse and you lose control over two centre squares. It might work on lower level because we dont know how to take advantage of the weakness , but on higher lvl... Already at Annas streangth they are so skilled that they will have an advantage from it. You are 4 moves into the game an have -0.3 with nothing to show for it. You are objectivly just worse of. The only thing that you got going for you is that you have no obvious weaknesses. But that can be said about your oponent as well, who in fact has better pieces and control over the centre.
@@justincase1276 That is however true for a lot of "accepted" openings as well. Dutch Stonewall, Hedgehog etc. You will, possibly, be able to attack but in the middle game.
@@perkalov absolutely, there is a king and queen side pawn push feeing both bishops that helps. U then castle on the opposite side to that pawn advancement. Usually I castle king side and weaken the queen side as my main point of counter to the weaknesses the opening creates.
@@justincase1276 You made that account just in case your original one was banned? Anyway :p Im not saying that it loses by default. Im stating that its simply a bad opening. Just as Pia implies.... There is a reason to why it wasn't invented before. The only advantage I can see, from a low rated players perspective is that it is solid. You have few weaknesses that can be easily exploited. This is true for better openings, like Kings Indian Defence/Attack. Most low rated players dont like to play solid(read boring) chess, but thats an other issue. The Cow is a meme opening and Anna knows it, so should anyone else. Teaching or luring beginners to disregard basic opening theory isn't really helping them. No "hate" on Anna. I don't think she really wants newbies to use it, but a huge part of us watching is far from as strong as she is.
Hi Anna I love watching you play chess and the way you socialize or interact with others. Anna, you seem to be just wonderful and full of life, awesome trait for sure.The video with your parents is so nice and congrats to Mom and Dad for making a wonderful daughter.
Good luck dad on the tournament game! Looking forward to see it :D
Can never get enough of your mum's smile. What a warmhearted, lovely person.
Pia is dead pan sarcastic but she hides it with that “know nothing innocent smile”😂
Happy Birthday to your dad. Great family and great video.
Thanks for sharing this video content, it's great to see wholesome family oriented games like these.
That was super wholesome. I was smiling the whole time.
May parents had the same look when I in grade 2 mixed baking sode and vinegar and showed it off to them like I was some kind of scientist. A mixture of calm panic and concern with a soupcon of "be quiet and don't hurt the kid's feelings"
love how proud she is for creating a brand new opening
Such passion! Anna. You parents should be very proud.
This video was _just_ what I needed after a terrible morning... your parents' reactions to the 🐄 opening made me smile so much. 😊 Also; happy birthday Juan! 🎂
I tried this today opening today at my club and managed to get a good opening but then my knight on g3 got into trouble and I started to get cramped on the kingside, luckily my opponent blundered 2 pawns in a row in the endgame and I won. I highly recommand this opening to those who like to wait until their oponnents start to blunder so you can get a win later on in the game
I REALLY want to see your dad play this opening in a tournament!
I LOVE your parents ❤! And Anna's personality & enthusiasm is ELECTRIC 😍. And your Cow opening is FANTASTIC 🤣! You GO Girl xxx
The best reaction I had of her father was, "You play like this?" from guess the elo video. Now, this one, putting on glasses concernedly has topped it.
Yes! The Old Man playing the Cow Opening in a Classic Tournament would be fantastic. You guys can spend some time developing some theory and why the heck not? The Engine doesn’t seem to hate it… maybe there’s some traps and or gambits that could work well in Rapid or Blitz?
I just love watching this family interact, the good humor and love they all show for one another. It's what makes this channel really special.
This is such a loving family, you can see the sincerity in her parents eyes, they love that their child is having fun with chess, even if she's not as good as them xD
