Chess Match vs Andrea Botez BUT LOSER HAS TO JUMP IN THE POOL 

The thing I'm noticing about anna is that she's polite, and excited without being wild or boring. It's a great disposition, a very balanced persona. What a fun kid.

I love you girls promoting chess online so much. My 10 year old daughter is interested in chess. Thus I’m interested in what you are doing here with these videos. She loves watching these videos with me, especially with all the trash talk in quick or blitz games (especially Coffee Chess). It makes the competition exciting to watch. And gradually she is becoming interested in the analysis part. She can ask me questions too. I have a very old USCF rating of 1900 plus from the 1990’s. I gravitated to play online using alternate accounts and got a max rating of 2354 before having to quit for a variety of reasons…Bells palsy that continues (although much less) to effect my vision in my right eye. It became too difficult to see much less to improve my chess skills online at the time. And frankly, the influence of computers into the chess world at the time was destroying the chess community IMHO. I’m glad to see you and other die hards are continuing to rebuild the community. In fact there’s potential for it to be better than it ever was before. Recently I’ve brought out my old chess library and started reviewing them again. And my 10 year old daughter is right there beside me learning. She’s into dog training as well. And she came up the idea of training our dog Bruce how to play chess. I was very skeptical at first. But she is already successful in getting him to take it and drop it. So perhaps it’s possible to get him to push a few pawns and allowing a human to use the fool’s or scholar’s mate on him. Regardless it would be hilarious to view a human playing an actual game with Bruce on one of these chess channels on RU-vid. Maybe far in the future….

Fun to see some competitive stakes!

If you live in England, having to jump in your outdoor pool in the sunshine isn't much of a forfeit

I like how even when she jumped in, they kept fighting in the background not even noticing.

I love chess but I am terrible at it. The game is incredible but I can't think ahead at all. I truly admire people with a mind that allows this level of play. I literally think a move or two ahead and then I forget what move I was going to make. I can solve mechanical problems and fix almost anything but you guys are amazing.

Anna shows how to lose with grace and humor.

Playing with fire ... there's a shark in that pool.

Not fair ending the video before you get out of the pool.

To be fair, "bean there done that" was quite a decent pun actually

We all know Anna threw that last game because she just wanted to cool off in the pool....

Pre-jump was better than the actual jump into the pool.

I must admit, I just jumped in the end of the video 🤣

interesting, anna’s hair matches her dress and andrea’s hair matches her shirt

Anna shines in comparison to those two. Grace, maturity, poise, etc

Swimming pool is a reward not a punishment.

The shark going back and forth in the background gives a quite surreal and creepy ambiance to this video...

"Bean there!" Ya got me lol

Anna is too quirky ... even for Andrea 🤣

15:30 ftw... 🤣 Also, ur crazy! Didn't you notice the shark floating in the water? Ya coulda got ate up. 🦈

Alex is doing her best to help Andrea by distracting Anna with her kibitzing trash talk.

In the end, her honor remained intact!

1:58 totally agree with the gremlin... teasing is annoying when it is constant

great tuff ladies thank you, we play chess here in New Zealand, but we play with sheep, very hard to keep score, because sometimes they pull the wool over our eyes

"HAS TO JUMP IN THE POOL" without bathing suit...

Anna, Thanks for visiting Los Angeles, CA. It was a pleasure playing you over the board.

3 ladies playing chess at a pool. 1 is rather humble. 1 is being neutral and chill. 1 has a big attitude. I don't mind losing, but let's just say of the 2 currently playing. 1 would beat me, smile and say what I did wrong as a learning moment. 1 I feel would rub it in.

All chess games should be like this.

LMAO the way a Swede jumps in a pool. It's almost like it's too cold to swim there. 😜

honestly not surprised to hear Andrea has been eating vitamins like gummy snacks her whole life

Okay.. both of them in the pool 😊

Oh my god at 9:32 Andrea had her queen trapped with Rb7. AHHHHHH

15:20 when Andrea pokes her face in shot, reminds me of the meme of the little girl in front of the fire. CHeeky look in her eyes lol.

I gotta say i dont really like those two sisters personalities. The one that wasnt playing doesnt bother me as much as the one that was playing but neither compare to Ana

I have played Chess for 60 years.I must be a Grand,Grand,Grand Master by now.

13:46 what am i missing? why did Andrea not take the rook? it's double attacked now, right? so it's a free piece?

Playing in the pool and the loser comes out.

At 10:45, why wouldn't the black rook take the white rook? I think that is where Anna lost that game.

The girls are so funny it's easy to forget they're all strong players.

The second game was instructional too. I was seeing stuff and missing stuff.

6:16 The second the thumbnail is taken from if you were obsessing over trying to find it like I was.

Strip Chess... just a suggestion.

Andrea seems to be prepared to run a marathon. 0:01

This isn't the chess club I remember from high-school

Dangit, ladies, how could I NOT click on this one? Smart thinking, ladies. You can't help people learn if they don't click! I would have bet on Anna winning. Good job, Botez.

I came to see Andrea jump in the pool, but I'm satisfied with what I saw nevertheless 😁

5:06: why didn't Anna play Nf6 threatening mate? Wouldn't Andrea have to sac her Queen then? 6:01: definitely a dad joke. 6:32: Andrea, what happened to 'bing bing bing ... bing"? 14:45: Andrea, promised a better (worse) dad joke if she won. We've been cheated! 15:15: Anna, total commitment.

When Andrea was completely winning couldn't she have gone bishop from A6 to b7 threatening the pawn and to win the trapped rook, don't know if anyone else saw the same thing or can explain why that's bad

Such a sexy chess board, nice change from boring beige and brown.

Where is that part of the video when Anna comes out of the pool? I want to speak to the director immediately! :D

"watch until the end"... yeah I'm not sure anyone would miss it... should say "don't skip to the end"

Meanwhile the shark in the pool roams looking the board.

I like the direction this is going

@13:17 "oh dang" - Alex is human.

A pool full of water in the midst of drought!

All I saw was Alex.

They have the face, the body, and the brain.

and the true winner is the game of chess..........for the reason that is so much fun to play

"I kinda wanna jump into the pool!" - Anna Cramling to chat, 2 hours prior 😏

Every time the shark floats by all I can hear in my head is the the Jaws theme that's leads up to him attacking. You missed an opportunity not editing in the sound lmao There were 2 great opportunities to use it. About mid video the shark comes in to view and slowly floats towards your end, and at the end before Anna jumps in it was like the shark was stage cued to turn towards her lol

omg botez sisters vs anna cramling!!! I'm like super stoked.

Why is the most replayed section at the end after the game?!

Trio de bellezas y además juegan bien al ajedrez. La perfección existe.

If I was them I would tell that girls with the phone to please be quiet! Geesh!

Most tanned chess player must be Andrea Botez

Jumping into the pool like a sims character 🤽‍♀

That pool jump is as awkward as the toilet variation opening

Jumping in the pool on a warm sunny day, dang! lol. Fun either way.

I forgot I committed too much Lmaoooo

Wow. Alex is sort of mean!

2:54 why didn't u fork queen here

No quiería que perdieras, pero sí quería que fueras tú la que se aventara al agua

Every 15 yo boy’s heart was broken when you didn’t show yourself getting out of pool. However, as an old man, with daughters and granddaughters I have great respect that you didn’t do it just to get views.

Hooray Andrea! Well played.

It seems to be rough to be Alex’s younger sister.

I feel like at some point black has to make the thematic break f5 otherwise they tend to get squashed by of lack of space and counterplay.

Andrea played Hans for a date, but when she lost, Hans just got a lot of sour grapes. 🤷‍♂️

i don t understand why anna jumped into the pool when it was 1:1

**LOVED THE >>>HOLD THE NOSE

It always hurts to lose, but that's part of the game. Everyone loses now and then. I don't want to sound like a smart alec, I'm by no means a better chess player than you, but after having observed your play, the thought occurred to me that you might have two weaknesses that you need to fix in order to improve your chess. First, sometimes you move fast and hang a piece in one move, which could cost you the game already. I think most strong players aren't strong because they can calculate better, but because their play is consistently on a high level. Second, you're a very tactical player, and maybe for that very reason you sometimes might forget about positional play. I don't know what you saw there in that last game after you sacrificed your valuable bishop-pair, probably you saw some tactics with your knight, but if you look at the board from a positional point of view there's no way a knight alone could inflict any damage on the king-side, you need at least a second piece to make any attack happen. The knight didn't even have an outpost, it could be kicked away with h4, which actually happened, and finally you had nothing to show for your sacrifice. These are just my thoughts, I just wanted to help. I'm looking forward to your future games, I'll be rooting for you! ☺

Andrea looking like snooki

Am I blind or she's just loosing a rook by playing Qe8 at 13:44? Andrea captured a pawn on d5 but wasn't there a rook take to win the rook since queen's protecting it? It looks so obvious, am I not seeing something?

In minute 14:25 Queen f2 and then g3 wouldn't be a victory for the blacks?

Anna crambling play same line and choose only white pieces

I'm only glad anna lost so we could see her stand up in that dress.

**LOOK OUT = THERE'S A SHARK RIGHT BEHIND ANDREA!!!**

Literally these people just play chess and collect money haha

WHY YOU GO TO THE POOL IF YOU GET 1-1

I've seen a few of these chess videos now. I love Alex's sense of humor, her chess skills, and her beauty, but I wish she would tone down the teasing when it comes to her younger sister Andrea. As the youngest myself I know that sometimes older siblings don't realize they're being mean. At the very least, not in front of the whole world. Alex always seems to be super sweet except when it comes to her younger sister...

Ce trio de bombes atomiques qui sait jouer aux échecs !!!

0:11 rejected...

It'd be more fun if the pool was real shark infested.

Next time you should wager 2 minutes in an ice plunge

I jumped right to the end

11:43 well

Cramling vs Gremlin

Jumping in the pool in summer isnt that bad, it could have been winter

Just a couple more dad jokes and this would have been perfect :-)

They set you up!

Anna u missed mate in the fiirst game
