As a Norwegian, we dont claim this man or his skills
You can beat him? ;)
@@MorningNapalmHe seems like a nice guy. Why would you want to beat him?
Snurre means the same in Norwegian, he's really lost. It's not a common name.
@@paulgoogol2652this is why we want to beat him.... Off
hes about 300 elo so yes i think 99% could beat him lmao@@MorningNapalm
Guys. Basic rule. Anna is super distracting so don't look at her, don't respond to her questions, be super scared when she is chatting away on HER time and not bothering to move. Just pretend you are somewhere else. It will delay your loss.
ajb - Was she playing chess? I didn't notice. I was looking at something else.
I would only look at her. Never at the board. Who cares abou that.
Guys, do exactly the opposite, if you know you're on the way of a loss, at least have a great time and share a laugh with her xD
Better rule- learn the fundamentals of chess before attempting to play an expert 😂
@@danwilliams8626fundamentals aren’t going to help you against a GM just play knowing you are going to lose but at least watch in amazement as she beats you 😅
Anna smashing muggles with a smile on her face as usual
Anna Cramling: Domination with a smile!
Has She ever mentioned playing a musical instrument? It just seems like it would be fun to watch(I dunno).@@ivan_pozdeev_u
@@BobbyFischer0000Well after all, she did beat the entire country of Norway.
Do you have instagram
😂😂😂
He didn’t play the best chess. But he got to play and chat a little with Anna so he is a winner.
"He didn’t play the best chess." - That's an understatement.
He didn't play anybody's best chess.
Dude seemed to just be randomly moving pieces around. I'm not sure he even knows how to play chess, he just wanted to talk to Anna. 😆
As an 800. If I play against anna I'm either running out of time or checkmatting her with 1 second left, or maybe she'll checkmate me without me noticing . Either way ik trying to get a rematch and suggesting where we should get lunch
absolutely
5:15 watch as Anna tries to contain herself from reacting to his move and instead politely listens to her opponent. Great self control, Anna! lol
i was thinking the same hahah
"A three dimensional space is too much for me" "it is, it is" 😆
“Ok…great”
I'm barely a chess player at all, but if I were playing against an inferior opponent and they made that bad a move, I would ASK them to take it back, not just LET them take it back.
I’ve only just discovered Anna and I know absolutely nothing about chess but I’m beginning to suspect you need a chess face, like a poker face. Love watching her smashing her opponents 😂
Because of the conversation you two had, I did a quick search and discovered that Norway and Sweden fought two short wars in the early 1800s, and were in a union as countries until 1905.
Adding...and now he knows just how good Magnus Carlson is, since MC beat Anna.
Fought many more wars than that when Norway was in a union with Denmark.
@TheGames Win. I think Sweden and Denmark have fought more wars against each other than any other European countries.
LOL, and now we are friends, but with "banter" :D The standard Swedish joke when meeting a Dane is that they thought Danish was a throat disease. My standard reply is that the Muppets didn't make a Danish chef :D The Swede then replies that the Swedish Chef sounds nothing like a Swede, but to a Dane, or anyone else, other than a Norwegian, he does :D @@michaelgoetze2103
@@michaelgoetze2103 spain is the winner, vs all the world xd
your videos have me back playing chess after 40+ years of not playing. still fun.
She did the same thing for me. Her exuberance over chess is inspirational. I’m 64 and have just started back since my last game in 1989. Anna makes it seem fun, and so it is!
That knight checkmate was nice!
A striking double-knight checkmate.... I was expecting the bishops in the role. Nice one indeed!
@@fplancke3336 Yeah, she really beat him up with those knights. Not being able to see what a knight is capable of is a rookie trait.
It's fun to hear the banter between Sweden and Norway.... Just shows how nice the people are from that area......thanks for the video
"are you ready to say goodbye to your queen?" haha thats cold
"You're playing well. I feel like you're the best chess player in the group." Leave it up to Anna to make a sarcastic remark sound like a genuine compliment. If Dinah Belenkaya had said something like that, one could've tasted the snark.
i actually think she meant it because he didn't take the pawn just then, so it seemed like he saw why he shouldn't. But then he took it anyway like 1 move later lol
She probably meant it - the group were probably worse.
HA! " you're the best chess player in the group" as she's developing while chasing his queen all over the board.
That's Dinah's schtick... it's very Roosian
This man is an absolute beginner in chess.
And yet, he got the opportunity to sit down at a table with Anna for like 10 minutes chit-chatting, so he's kind of an absolute pro isn't he? 😂
This was his idea of a speed date. I don’t think he got her number though.
@@Dave67AZ No.
no shame in that. and he got a chance to already play with one of the best chess players of our generations. he won.
Well he said he only played on a chess website
First winning a queen and then checkmating with knights and bishop without even using your own queen, now that´s beautiful
"Sweden is better than Norway" - Anna 😂 . Poor guy .
I love your straight face just before the final checkmate, I bet inside you were secretly loving his pain.
Love how "Snurre" is pronounced with such obvious pitch accent even though you two were speaking in English not swedish/norwegian 😅
Anna's happiness when she wins makes me play more chess
Anna’s rizz is unmatched. Just the most likable, engaging, charming person.
Bringing out your queen at the start of the game is a really good way to help your opponent develop pieces
I am no great chess player but as soon as he brought out his queen and started losing tempo as Anna chased it around I knew he was doomed. Even I know that is an amateur mistake.
And then he doubled down on the one piece attack “strategy” with his knight after losing his queen. Definitely a very inexperienced player.
Yeah I don't know if he knew who she was. I learnt to defend against this highly aggressive "Scholars Mate" type of stuff in one evening when I first started playing.
You just beat me in 14 moves, and I must say you also played very well...ha....too funny!
😂😂😂
Anna saw his level early and took it a bit easy and was kind to give him me credit than he deserved but that's what good people do.
Hard to tell whether the "You are playing well" while he does total BS was seriously kind, or just very subtle vicious mockery.
In Sweeden sugarcoating is mandatory. They are super friendly.
"Sweden is better than Norway, ok, thanks, bye" 🤣🤣🤣
Anna has almost become a reason of fight between Sweden chess-players and Norwegian artists in the Dutch bar. The Armageddon Clocks never were so close to the midnight😁
Watching this guy made me more confident about my 150 elo abilities ahaha
I have been learning a lot from you and that game was too funny
Oooh I'm from the Netherlands and thought "hey I can read the posters on the wall😅" But now to the game, Anna says "you play quite well" but let's be honest....Snurre moved only his much to early queen around and get a punishment for that. Anna forked him with a check, she could take his rook, but chose for the pon instead....and looked at Snurrre's face at that moment. Wondering if he actually saw that or not. So she makes a second forked on the other side with a check....again Anna didn't take the rook and I thought...oh Anna doesn't want to hurt him to much, but I was wrong! She saw a checkmate coming, that's why she didn't take the rook😂 Always love to see Anna play and talk and her body language ❤
Are you from Amsterdam
Do you have instagram
@@ahmadansar7771 No not Amsterdam,. Groningen
@@ahmadansar7771 yes but don't use it much
Ik zag de poster en dacht waarom lees ik dit makkelijk. Lol.
4:40 you’re playing well as the eval bar shows he’s almost completely lost 🤣
Anna, you were so gentle & patient with this clueless fellow. Well played.
clueless fellow
Anna you always seem to have a great connection with every player. I feel like you are the “fizz queen “ as the kids say.
Dang...another thing the kids say that I am clueless about.
He moved his queen five times while Anna developed at least four pieces, most of which were attacking moves. He needs to review her video where she covers: 1) Check 2) Capture 3) Attack in calculating potential moves. Oh yes, also where she discusses defending one's own pieces at all times, if possible. Both of these points have helped my own game.
Absolutely I would play you in a game of chess. Surely I would lose the actual game, but it would be fine, the pleasantness of your conversation, as well as the "learning points" that you give your opponents, and your energy and smile, I know that is ALWAYS A WIN for me.
I would use up all my time on chit chat and smiling... as I was crushed LOL
After his second move he was already in trouble.
The guy was too busy flirting to focus on the game.
Hi, I just subscribed. I don't know anything about chess but love the interplay between you and the people that you play with. Looking forward to watching the next match.
Omg Anna was in my country!!! 🇳🇱 Next time I want to play a game and have banter too!!
"It works sometimes against the bots" LOL But not against Anna... she nailed him witha "Horns of the Cow" checkmate.
You smoked him Anna 😂. I knew it wasn't going to end well when he brought the queen out second move against a master!
Fascinating evaluation so early ...
This may be the first time that I comprehended what Anna was going to do at the same moment Anna knew. So maybe I am starting to progress.
That checkmate was gangsta!
Don't let her sweet nature fool you... Anna is a savage!! Lol that was brutal! Didn't even bother taking the rooks, went right for the win lol
that's not brutal, if she wanted to be brutal she would have eaten all his pieces, then sacrificed all her pieces and pawns (except 2 of them) for nothing, then promoted them to knight and bishop to checkmate him
@@RaghavBabbar Can Anna checkmate with bishop and knight? I know that Ben Finegold can, but he was playing chess before I was born, and I'm almost 40
@RaghavBabbar that wouldn't be brutal... that would be mean and humiliating lol 😆
@@sebu1301I certainly hope she can. I'd expect 95% of those rated 1500+ to be able to do so nevermind those at her level. I'd actually suggest lower but it's easy to mess up and run out of moves.
@@GuardOfGaia You have high expectations. I don't see a reason why any 1500 would even consider practicing that, one of the least useful skills in chess. Somebody said, that even many GMs can't do it. But Anna is kind of a chess nerd, so maybe she has practiced it. I'm 1200 and can't even reliably mate with king and rook 😂 I wonder how often knight & bishop vs king endgame happens. Maybe Hikaru has had it, with the crazy amount of games he's played...
Anna gane o pierda siempre con una sonrisa, me encantaría perder una partida con ella 😂😂😂
That guy was a disaster.
You teach me a lot about chess - and make these fun. Thanks!
Jesus this was like u playing someone that never even played before😂

5:00 "but I think you’re going to mind very soon" 😂😂😂
Im rated 440 in 3 min blitz and I honestly feel I would’ve given you a better game. He must’ve been star struck or something.
Bra Anna, du gjorde oss inte besvikna! :)
Haha when Anna says you got your queen out early and that it works against the bots, that isn't a compliment!
I think this is my favorite game that I've seen you play! It was like you started at middle game....Wow!
they had such a nice vibe together- they would make a really nice couple!
oh dear. saw that coming on move #2.
Anna's conclusion: "Sweden is better than Norway", as an offhand parting shot. ahahaha ))
I love watching Anna's videos she is always bright and bubbly with a fantastic attitude to life. Let me start off and say I cannot play chess and these videos have opened my eyes as to how complex a game it can be, but let us factor in something that cannot be taught human nature. Imagine if you will you are there, at some sort of chess tournament, you have come with your best game plan to do as well as you can. Then your opponant turns up, she is a young woman, with a dazzling smile and wonderful personality, ( and pretty damn good at the game as well) I have to admit, personally there is no way I could concentrate LOL. I love the way Anna explains the games so even a chess idiot like my can understand he thinking for why a move was a good idea or a bad idea. Keep up the excellent work 🙂
WOW! Anna, do not tell him that his strategy sometimes work. Tell him not to do it ever again. lol
It works... again bots lmao
"You're playing well". Anna, you flatterer. Then he blunders his queen into a royal fork
You are an ambassador for the game. You are competitive but, make the matches friendly and fun. Chess Princess.
"Are you ready to say goodbye to your queen?" She said coyly.... Ok, maybe not so coyly! She's good!
Anna was very gracious. He was obviously overmatched.
På norsk: Snorre Sturlason var en islandsk høvding, historiker og skald, og hørte til en av de mektigste ættene på Island, så Snorre/Snurre er et gammelt norrønt navn. Det er laget fra verbet snurre. Navnet kan ha betydd ‘den raske’ eller ‘den uvørne’. Greetings from Norway 🙂 In english: Snorre Sturlason was an Icelandic chieftain, historian and poet, and belonged to one of the most powerful families in Iceland, so Snorre is an old Norse name. It is made from the verb spin. The name may have meant 'the swift' or 'the fearless'. Greetings from Norway 🙂
This is a masterclass in why not to bring your queen out too early
thanks for these videos. very enjoyable and i like playing chess now lol
When he brought out the Queen so early, Anna must have wanted to roll her eyes.
Your videos inspired me to play chess again after decades. I'm uber trash but I really love it. It's such a good way to relax.
He moved his queen way too early. And she BS'd her way into really disarming him.
Honestly I just started watching you and just by one video I could tell your very good at chess
you're very
Brutal.
His second move was a bit insulting but the game was a real laugh, her chasing him around the board with one knight for a while, classic.
Hard to believe he put any thought into that game at all. Hopelessly outclassed.
being a pusher is no fun. take it from me. I know of what I speak.
Just a beginner.
He seems really dumb
He was distracted by her outrageous flirting. I know I was.
You are a nice person you don’t make anyone feel small it’s very honourable
She knows that her comment section will do it for her instead, lol
Here in Minnesota there are many Swedes and Norwegians. They have the same kind of rivalry I see in this video. My Swedish American father and my Norwegian American mother-in-law used the talk the same way as these two. I think it is the only way to maintain the illusion that there is some important difference between the two countries.
"If you win"... I think she's pretty confident!
hi, ana, congratulations on this win :-) could you describe how do you obtain all this videos... are they taken by the organizer or do you have your own equipment?
Nice, fun Chess content. Thank you 😊
That was a very beautiful checkmate.
Norway isn't better than Sweden, they are both the same - like Canada and America or Australia and New Zealand. Now I think I'm really in trouble 🙂
anna says, Your playing well your best of the bunch, He moved 1 pawn & followed with his queen, 1 move later she takes his queen..
😅
Anna, killing him quietly: "You're playing well!" *family fork*
Anna: "You're playing well..." Sarcasm level 11 🤣
He is definitely a complete beginner that had no idea how strong Anna was! I'm nowhere near as good as Anna is and I knew he was playing complete rookie moves! But she had the right attitude to keep him interested in playing chess, winning graciously is a good skill that I think comes naturally to her
Good chess content as always Anna.
Over forty years ago I played a similar game, but with black, against a guy named Victor Tudisco. After I chased his queen around for the fourth move in succession he let out an audible groan. After I beat him he refused to shake hands and stormed off. The thought of it still amuses me to this day. I still have the score sheet.
This was actually great sitcom episode 😂
The Wayward Queen sacrifice Followed by the King sacrifice. I think pawn sacrifices are better.
Anna's technique consists of talking to her opponent to distract him so she can beat him hahaha.
She just bets Sweden’s pride casually 👏👏
I've both Swede/norwege in My Fam. Never a prob.
“Sweden is better than Norway okay thanks bye.” Haha
that was personal. obviously.
“You only have ONE move”!!😂
how did i not notice the dutch poster in the background until she said that they where in amsterdam
Ik had precies hetzelfde😅
Anna is able to make the sweetest trash talk ever
He was thinking about everything except chess 😅
I love the little under the eyelids look at about 7:06. Checking to see if he realizes hes toast. LOLLLOLLOLLO
Felt like watching a date turning into slaughter.
Anna, talking about when she lost against Magnus: "but it was an endgame!" Bro: "wtf is an endgame?"
@@sitbone3 thanks! I was more referring to the fact that she made it to an endgame with Magnus, but that her current opponent probably doesn't know what an endgame is because he always gets mated first.
You were more than generous in telling him that he was playing well. It's like in poker where the saying is, "Don't tap on the glass." Don't disturb the fish. Until you crush them.
That's what I used to do as a kid. Get my queen out early and tour the board taking all my opponents pieces 🤣. I'm not an advanced player but I always liked doing that. I'm not much good at chess now but would like to get better
