"HE HAD BEATEN HER... in chess"

He did not seem angry. He seemed like a nice guy.

"Igor first, Italian guy second, Maya's dad third, me fourth" - what a nice summary of such a friendly competition with so much great chess.

There are 2 serious problems with being an angry father wanting revenge for Anna beating his daughter at chess: Anna's Parents!

The Italian guy: I have a name! Okay, The Italian guy

"I would have won my own signature"...😆

This whole series was fantastic! Wholesome competition and brilliant commentary.

"STOP DRINKING BEER!" Nono, Anna, you gotta stay hydrated!

Italian Guy is trying to flirt, but she's having none of it

You should get a public signature, which is different from the signature you use to sign bank checks.

Love your content anna, its crazy how extroverted you are. Going out in the public and playing chess while also making youtube content. Its inspiring! Please keep up the great content!

Who’s Angry? You don’t need clickbait..

Anna, even when you don't win a game, you remain gracious, and a class lady. Well done.

This is one off the most fun and interesting channel I subscribed to in YEARS! Amazing, I can't wait to watch all your games and I learn so much from your commentaries and the 2D board. Thanks so much for your content, and greetings from Amsterdam, the Netherlands!

I love her self-revealing commentary. That's rare.

Love your commentary, Anna! Keep it coming.

Anna speaks multiple languages. Her Spanish is flawless so I must compliment your English as well

Bro is over there dropping chess pieces, infatuation for her is through the roof lmao.

I loved the way you presented these games. The v/o helps explain the positions and thoughts, and I learned quite a bit from these games (not least to think about time)

Almost a MILLION people like you! Your signature is worth something because your presence and passion for the game creates inspiration in so many, and that is priceless! Thank you for sharing 😊

So great of you Anna, to share your wins AND losses. Sharing your chess prowess like no other. This just shows your enviable character and exemplifies the ultimate sportsmanship and humbleness which makes you unique. This brings life's lessons to us all... through chess. Thanks so much for you!

Drinking beer, looking around, you distracted yourself, got too comfortable. Had fun, let your hair down and enjoyed your company. It is not all about winning, but enjoying your life with respectful competition! You are a winner!

Loved this series, and great to see you playing chess in my home city. Keep up the good work Cramling!

"Looking around, smiling, feeling amazing" (ie. Anna was a bit drunk) 🍺

loved the series and you did well

Anna's biggest opponent as always is time... always an enjoyable view. Keep up the great content.

Her focus drifted. I'm glad she shared the loss. A lesson learned.

"I would have won my own signature." LOL.

Väldigt bra serie...mer sånt. Nästa gång vinner du!

Great content. No too long and it's fun to see you in a relaxed, but still competitive, environment.

That was a very entertaining tournament! Your content is always nice.. thanks for posting for us to enjoy 😊

3:18 I love how Anna refers to herself as the 3rd place in front of her opponent before the match 😄😄

Congratulations on winning 4th! 👏 I love watching your games! And i love how you edit your videos! I love how you find a way to keep things private while your there but having your own commentary over the game! You've definitely made chess very fun to watch! I'm sure you'll also achieve your goal at getting faster this year and I'm sure your learning lots from watching the game being played again now you can reanalyze your strategies. Keep doing these videos! They're so fun to watch! I hope you never give up and you always grow!

Congratulations to Igor and to you and Maya and her dad, and all the other contestants. Thanks for sharing it.

Fantastic! you played so well! defeated only by your own slowness, which you already have as a goal to work on. I love your interest in words and language! and you have the far and away the best incidental music while the game is unfolding. So dramatic! I feel as though I've been drawn into a movie. Dramatic and relaxing at the same time. Great music and wonderful chess at the same time. It's like being in heaven. Thank you for creating these sorts of experiences for us to enjoy and learn from!

Great series! Thank you

Great to watch, I'm really enjoying your plays and teachings. Good luck in Iceland 😊

Thanks for sharing this, although I felt sorry you lost… your explanations are simply great , thank you !🙏🏼

Omgggg thank you for taking my note on Shook hands!! I love your videos :)

I'm happy to watch these, and I enjoy listening to you discuss the game! :)

We love that 4th place finisher. She is so cool.

Ouch! The old time bugaboo! Loved the videos of each game Anna!

Loved watching you play. Cant wait for then next time!

Anna, I love your videos but I have to say, this one (thumbnail included) seems a little click-baity. There's no angry dad out to avenge his daughter here...

The italian guy is just happy to be hanging out with Anna.

You are the best chesstuber. You are the best at articulating yourself (and English isn't even your first language) and you are very personable and relatable. I would be glad to win your signature in a local chess tournament.

Well done Anna, I hope you enjoyed your stay in the UK. Yes, more videos like this!! Very entertaining. Been subbed to you for 2 years I think. I still don't play chess 😄

happy you switched from shaked hands to shook Anna haha--your videos are great keep going, you gotta hit 1M subscribers soon

I'm with ya Anna! I hate time constraints. I have never played with a clock in real life and don't want to... but, you (and other ChessTubers) have inspired me to maybe sign up for a tournament.

Thanks Anna! I think from the positions you reached you should have won this tournament. However it's true that playing faster could raise your chances even more! And one more thing: Don't think too much about winning just play the positions! When I played our traditional Blitz tournament (around the 6th of December) I always wanted to win it! When I finally won this tournament once (and the only time) i thought that I'd finish second if I drew the last game (which I did). But it turned out that it was sufficient for winning the tournament! What a pleasant surprise! It would have been even harder had I known that a draw would have secured me the victory in this tournament! That's highly psychological - the pressure under that you'll put yourself! Failure will be programmed in most of those cases!

All of your videos are great! More like this would be fantastic!

The way you talk is adorable, never change

If competition sports were this friendly and relaxed, I wouldn't have been turned off from them when I was a kid.

That was very gracious of Anna to let the old man win.

" i have lot more time of my opponents (65 seconds), I start to feel really great, looking around smiling, feeling amazing" Anna, you are amazing

He had a lot of concentration.

You did a GREAT job and it is a pleasure to watch you play. Sorry that you and the Italian guy didn't come in higher in the final positions but it was wonderful watching you. That dad will get his, don't you worry!

5 minutes is not long enough for a game of chess.

Congrats on your effort! Well done!

so cute the flirting continues on into the finals.... hope the flirts inspire someone to write a modern chess version of pride and prejudice

2:38 - … in chess!! 😂

I love how humble you are. Face it Anna, you're famous.

Strong narrative doesn't need emotive string music, l love that you play well and speak without using distancing or hesitation words Thanks for sharing this game

3:25 “You want my signature? I’m in third place.” How does she know she will finish third? The game not even started yet! 😂

I am a slower player, too. So, classical for me. Congrats on 4th... you're a great person, your followers attribute this and are a testament to your journey.

Well done. I loved your series

Love how deeply unimpressed you are with the ‘bottle of wine’ and ‘signature’ prizes!

I enjoyed it very much Anna. Thanks for your commentary. Wishing you luck in increasing your speed. Wish me well in trying to reach a rating of 1800 on all 60+ puzzle categories. Currently stuck at 1400 on the Defensive Move puzzles which I find far harder than the other handful of puzzle categories I have so far understood and reached 1800.

Of course they wanted your signature. You are a celebrity.

Thanks so much Anna, have learned a lot from you!

great series -- love the place!

She did not like losing and I love the competitive spirit!

Gratitude for the uplifting content, your unwavering dedication doesn't go unnoticed.

Hola Anna!! Me encanto esta serie ; )

Wonderful video Anna. I've throughly enjoyed watching this London series. Looks like a nice pint of ale you were drinking too. 🍻

Igor, the Italian guy, and Maya's father. Quite the names there. 😂

Loved this series, is there anywhere I can find out more about this chess club?

You were so close, but time got you again forcing you into panic mode. But you did have a good time and made new friends. Chess Princes.

anna's smile and friendliness is so contagious ❤❤❤

Great series. Very enjoyable. Perhaps enter one of these tournaments in future with your mum? 😊

I enjoyed your so-called Triangle Defense, Anna. I'm going to try that! Muchos gracias😃

I always told my children when they were learning to play that they really have to focus when board control shifts to your opponent. That's when we tend to start gambling. It appeared you had him until you gave up your first bishop and it didn't really look like that weak of exchange. That what I liked about chess not the exchange of pieces but the subtle change of power and what I could learn from my defeats and sometimes wins.

This series was good. I'd like to see more like it.

The title of the video is father wants revenge after I beat his daughter in chess. But at 2:35 she says, I’m going to avenge Mya and I’m gonna beat her dad. Funny!

8:48 love how you talk to yourself almost yelling❤😅😅

Anna, thank you again for explaining your strategy. It is so helpful in my games. You are a champion!!!

Thanks again, very nice following the tournament and hear the analysis of your own thoughts. Get a second public signature to use, as many advised you already. 😊

This was a great series of games to watch!

The chuckle at 0:57 was so awkward 😂 had me lmao

Still well played looking forward to see your journey!

3:10 THAT OLD CHESTNUT 😂😂😂 They wanted your digits. +46…

The Italian guy is soooo into you its making me laugh

11:33 I play The Pirc and similar styles with black a lot. Usually the computer says putting the king in the corner is safest, even though it looks silly. It prevents harsh pins.

I'm still pulling for the Italian guy!

Anna pro tip: from watching your blitz and classical games, what i see is that you can play both time controls very well, but you panic when switching time control in between a game. like having lots of time and needing to blitz in the end.

You won they wanted your signature, they didn’t ask anyone else👀 you’re famous!

Every time , she loses time, aiming zeitnot for her. She is more powerful than any of them.

Man I wish we had these sort of bars with chess tournaments

Bro is like, I just wanted her number, the hell with the win.

Kudos to whoever is choosing the background music.
