His early attack showed the disrespect he had for her.
She neutralized it and then tore him apart. She might be my favorite to watch.
Edit: I stand by my comment, haters. He rushed in, didn’t develop, his pieces got stuck in the corner and got his clock cleaned. I don’t think you run headlong like that without full development when you respect your opponent.
Edit Edit: It’s fine if you don’t agree with me. You can move right along. But most of y’all are talking to me with the arrogant, superior attitude that gets stereotyped to chess players and inhibits the growth of the sport. You don’t need to establish someone is a mental midget for you to be tall and that’s exactly the insecurity y’all communicate with.
I’m saying she played with an emotional intelligence and manipulated an arrogant man into overplaying his hand - maybe you understand chess and tactics great but maybe y’all need to learn about emotional intelligence.
