A NM vs GM. There is 300p difference in rating between them. Of curse a GM can have a bad day, and the NM a good day. I'm not saying the win wasn't fair and a great win, but there is nothing spectacular about this video. The NM got a nice rating bonus for beating a highly rated player, but all in all, why is this on hacker news?<p>If you want chess analysis, check out Agadmator, Gotham Chess or Hikaru Nakamura's youtube channels.
One of my passions is to play chess. I have been privileged to represent South Africa internationally at chess for more than a decade.<p>Here is a short video explaining the strategies that I used in a chess game to win against a Grandmaster.
"winning against a grandmaster" although they played 1+0 which favours lower rated players much higher than any other timeformat. still an impressive feat to score that high.<p>the explanation literally takes twice as long as the actual game they played, its insane how large the information processing speed can be in humans.
