I love this format. I don’t have to skip the intro to get to the chess, and within 30 seconds the game is on! The introduction is super smooth-just you and the board and a warm welcome. I love it! Thank you Eric! Keep going where you’re going!

30:46 Isn’t the Knight pinned to the bishop so it can’t move ?
@mikebaker2436
Жыл бұрын
The pin is relative. Example, if Knight moves to e4 and white takes the free bishop, the black knight takes white's queen with check... so taking the e4 knight is somewhat forced... making the bishop trade the likely follow-up.

you mentioned that GMs get a bye, but then you play a WGM in game 4. I guess they're not considered real GMs? that's kinda weird.

Well, it's not that weird. Women can still achieve GM titles. I get that women titles are there to encourage women to participate, but unlike most physical sports, there is no inherent advantage men have over women in chess. So yeah, the title "GM" is higher than "WGM"
@KF1

@@Andrew-jh2bn yeah the lack of a physical aspect to the sport makes the WGM title seem sexist. The pieces don't care and they're not aware that any meaningful difference exists, if any does. It's good that women can achieve true GM titles.

@@KF1 Some women such as Judit and Susan Polgár and Pia Cramling refuse the women's titles entirely, preferring only to go after the open titles. There are 40 female GMs now, up from just 6 entering 2000. There are just over 300 WGMs (with some overlap).
