She went through a run of 4 straight games against players rated higher than her and only had one loss. She's better than her ranking.

@robertwilson3866 Год назад

I think online rankings are always lower than what they should be. Because there are so many people online and the ratings are relative. Also she plays in public all the time, that must help too

@KKJazz Год назад

That’s what happens when you take a break for 3 years. rankings will fall into more accurate places as you play more

@52000rightwing Год назад

She took this more seriously than she normally takes games. Definitely a ringer.

@harborwolf22 Год назад

The fact that she is so humble and says stuff like 'I'm really not the wisest person...' is such a great indicator that she's a damn good person and will continue to improve. Badass

@zulkzymobile7901 Год назад

I mean she literally is no where near the wisest person whats so humble about that 😭 She gets cooked by grandmasters on a daily 🤣

@zulkzymobile7901 Год назад

But yes i understand she is very humble but her saying she is not the wisest doesn’t make her humble

@harborwolf22 Год назад

@@zulkzymobile7901 Her saying that in the midst of being the center of attention for a big meet and greet, and being a pretty popular personality for a good amount of time now, makes expressing that sentiment in the moment 'being humble'. It's not a thought that 99% of kids in her situation would have or express.

@Vivungisport Год назад

@@zulkzymobile7901 I agree with that to a larger extent. Her statement was quite accurate though😌

@finosuilleabhain7781 Год назад

@@zulkzymobile7901 Au contraire. "Not the wisest" isn't to be taken literally but to mean "not really very wise", so she's downplaying herself - a definition of humble.

@TTM9691 Год назад

THANK YOU! I've been dying to see all about this tournament!! I am SO PROUD of her, like she's my own family! I actually teared up seeing the picture of a young Andrea proudly holding her trophy....I'm just always rooting for her! I'm rooting for both sisters. Ultimately, I don't care about their ratings because they have gotten me into chess and taught me so much. They're about improving, learning, and most of all about having fun with the game (and with life). LOVED the vlog, I was DYING to know all about it and couldn't understand why there was so little content about it. Now I know why. PS: The Meet & Greet was beautiful to see.

@robertwilson3866 Год назад

Andrea 2.0 is turning into a chess engine. 19 perfect moves in a row....

@brendaz.9126 Год назад

I Love the Botez sisters… their videos make me laugh all the time. This one was much more emotional, the amount of gitters/anxiety/excitement before each game and the emotions at the end of each game made me just want to hug her and tell her she did amazing!! Overall really enjoyed 💜

@Mayhski112 Год назад

Truly think this was some of the best content you girls did this year, both this and Alex her tournament have been a blast to watch and a great idea to follow that up with a very well put together vlog. Keep doing what you're doing! 👍❤

@rasmusbrege7433 Год назад

I learned years ago, but didn't really play it much coz everyone I knew couldn't play it. Thanks to the internet and some Botez motivation, I play at least one game a day now. I'm on the easiest level v the computer, but at least I have a 100% win record so far 😂

@calm713 Год назад

In that Robert Forney game, Andrea played at a level that was easily 2500, IMO. I've never seen her play that well before.

@autosemimatic6071 Год назад

You dont understand the level difference if you truly think that she played a game like a 2500 fide rated player. While she played very well on critical moments the general basis of moves were nowhere near the level of a 2500. Shes under 2000 fide and played absolutely great but its just disrespectful to call that a 2500 level game from her side
