Hey Anna, I'm Axel, the guy in the video. Thanks for the game, it was nice meeting you ! Long live the cow !
Thank you so much for the game!!
@averellgamble2130 Je pense que tu voulais dire crawl et non creep ;) pour ton ouverture. Great video again Anna!
Axel, I think the creep opening is better than the cow. Just need to find ways to develop the Queen side. Sorry Anna. In exchange, I will sub to your channel. 🎉
Yes, ma traduction était approximative, je pense en effet que crawl est mieux haha ! Merci ;) @@beastmtl
You seem like an awesome dude, Axel
I can hear Pia now: "Axel made an interesting opening. Very interesting. Not what I would do."
Exactly!
Yes, I can hear her say it
PIA FTW
That is absolutely an opening.
He put his shoulder into it.
he is probably too shy and too humble to say it; but Axel
is one of the best poker players of his generation. This is the very first time I've commented on a CZcams video and I wanted to say that I really appreciate your content! THANKS!
I knew he looked familiar and then it hit home. Axel is a bloody brilliant player!
If you are writing cow theory you'd better play the right moooOOOOoooves
Brilliant!
@@scubadawgy Udderly Brilliant.
Lmao
😂
I heard this in Anna’s voice for some reason 😂
What a flex!
Make the creep an opening
The creepy crawly is already an opening
Real chess rizzzz. Man of culture.
Not really
The first 4 comments in this comment really making a sentence😂
We need a hybrid of the two openings here, The creeping cow would be popular just because of the name.
Nice! I was thinking creeping cow too and found you beat me to replies.
What a bizzare name.😂
it's a fun tournament idea to make a tournament where white plays the creep and black plays the cow.
Opponent: Hello, nice to meet you! My name is Axel
Anna: *your name means shoulder in Swedish*
Could be worse though... In German his name literally means armpit :D
And in English of course, it means the bit between two wheels. And then there's Axl Rose ... well, we won't go into the origin of THAT (not with sweet Anna around ...)
No it doesn't.@@QuentinSingvogel
@@msch2229 Well, it's Achsel in German and oksel in Dutch, both mean armpit. Saterland Frisian seems to have acsle as shoulder too. The Old English version used to mean both things in the run of time...
He's right - he's a man of culture.
I think playing cow-cow openings was very gentlemanly to Anna. Because, if a side loses to the Cow, the Cow still wins! EDIT: Then, in the 2nd game, it became, you showed me yours, now I show you mine!
A man of cowture.
Men of culture assemble! We still want words with the cameraman from the Anna & Botez arm wrestling thing!
I choked when he said that lol
I love Axel, he came prepared
The way to a woman’s heart is through her opening.
Underrated comment
Ayo
This man bringing the cow to you as his opening move is the equivalent of a chess pickup line. You are a smooth operator, Axel. 😉
He's got some competition from the Italian though ...
really loving this format with the voice over explanations. It's great. Nicely editing in the actuality as well - nice touches.
Yes, she's so polished that you seamlessly follow her games without even thinking about the production. You're right there watching the game holding a consolation pint after dropping out.
It’s officially an opening now
Axel is a great poker player. He's won a total of more than $1.5 million at poker tournaments, including 136,000 euro at a live tournament in France.
The smile when Anna saw the Cow opening, worth it. Well played sir.
He really investigated his opponent and made the game as such to a present. THAT's flirting at higher levels :D
French "ramper"
To crawl, creep, trail
Or otherwise to move out of the opening like molasses, it's like a single-sided cow.
Try adapting it to the cow double-sided style, can be "the creeping cow" with horns turned inwards
Shoulder with cow opening should be Eva Bergman’s next movie’s name which plots on rural Sweden
Congrats Anna!! He played your opening! You're officially a celebrity now 😂❤
I love that he says he knows it because he is a man of culture! haha
The Checkered Pasture: The Complete body of Cow Theory by Anna Cramling
clever, clever!
I think she should hire Ben Finegold to write it: "Moo like a Grandmaster"
“DO YOU KNOW WE NAME PEOPLE SHOULDER IN SWEEDEN?”
Lmao. Had a couple of pints in ya I see! 😂
One really cool thing about this tournament is that you are meeting some realy cool people. Also I like your tournament videos more because there is more suspence in addition to the banter between players and commentary of the game.
Cow ain't no joke. I got beat by the Cow yesterday in a frustrating locked-down position. Think it was the first time I lost against the Cow but certainly could tell that opponent knew some theory and had been playing it for quite awhile. The Cow ain't no joke.
Enjoyed cordial interaction between the players. Good sportsmanship.
In Fact, Axel in german means Shoulder too. Well, actually it means armpit, but i wouldnt have said that one either.
It's spelled differently though. But you are right, if you just hear it spoken, you can't tell the difference.
Epic battle between shoulder and inventor of the cow.
Well plaid. You bring a smile to my mornings. Love the actual plays with commentaries. You do it very well.
I've been working on the Black Knight's Tango lately, and seeing this game of Cow, I imagined a push in the center followed by a knight manoeuver Nd7-Nf6, wich could give a nice position attacking on the king side and could be called the Cow Tango variation, or the Mexican Cow.
Thanks Anna, so glad u won. Looking forward to the next game and you up on the podium.
la rampante, don't call it the creep opening 😂
If she wants to use the English at least call it "creeping" instead of "creep" -- there is a huge difference.
what a gigachad, just feeding the content for us. what a guy
Great match and narration. Thank you Anna & Axel.
In Game 2 Axel's opening is unfortunately old news as creative/prolific GM Duncan Suttles often played the KIA with Nh3, and then many times followed with f3/Nf2/e4 (60's 70's), including Suttles vs. Hort Polanica Zdroj 1967, Suttles vs. Polugaevsky Belgrade 1969, Suttles (2470) vs. Keene (2435) Skopje 1972, Suttles (2425) vs. Andersson (2595) Thessaloniki 1984. Because of his influence I have tried this in a couple of serious tournament games, as well as speed chess in the 80s.
This is great! Been playing the cow with friends and have had pretty good success with it.
This is chess history. Axel has brought us the paleron de boeuf variation of Anne’s opening.
The king/queen fork was a thing of beauty.
Awesome Anna ! fascinating games. The cow Trumps the creep. I think I was playing the creep opening back in the day too. BTW got my favorite colors down to 3 . Sky Blue, Sunset Orange, or Sunrise Yellow...... Love ya Anna !!
2:26 NO WAY
Congratulations!!!! That's actually awesome
I have yet to try playing the cow 🐮, but I really like watching it. Great job winning that round!
You have to like how the winning line began with B:f2, which was the essence of "La Rampant" (the creep). Very nice combo with the rook sac - great game Anna - enjoyed
Truly enlightening when you bring you own art in to change the playing field.
My own example is Smite and the Goose Chase to maneuver an entire team like a shepard without "boots" , a staple item. Did it so many times, they took boots out of the game entirely and made a new game mode.
Every time friendly team OCD for their own strategy had them screaming at me to buy boots, I was way ahead of them, and they never knew why I was running like a mad hatter when they couldn't see on the mini-map with what I saw with my own eyes. Very few saw the opportunity of time and placement, using the definition of speed (distance over time) to line up everything like a good shephard. There were other items for speed that scaled damage off the bat that made me faster with the same amount of gold.
Beer was almost spit on the chess board there when she saw the opening. What a fun game! I get stressed thinking about both the cow and creep openings, not in my wheelhouse at all, but it was so fun watching you two play them!
It is always a pleasure watching you:
.Play chess.
.Talking.
.smiling.
.joking around with other people.
.having fun.
Love and good vibes from holland 🇳🇱
Congrats, Anna and Axel
Brava Anna, è sempre bello vedere ragazze allegre e cordiali. Continua così!
That was so cool that he opened up with the cow. I did that today as well. I got killed.
Should’ve played a vegan
Killed or grilled?
@@dougjustdoug6391 that would’ve been better
I did too. h5 is so annoying.
@@dougjustdoug6391 or smoked?
Guess it was only fitting how the Cow vs Cow game ended. The Creep (as in creeping up, not creepy person) opening is a bit like the King's Indian but with a knight in place of a pawn. Between the two, I like the Cow more because that doesn't feel as awkward to set up as The Creep. Looking forward to the next video!
This is wonderful, a good man :) Well done, Anna.
Axel (aka The Shoulder) was such a great sport! First he played the Cow opening! Then he showed you the Creep opening which he invented when he was 12! Hard to say which is better since the time allotment was so short in the Creep game. But both are part of chess history a la Anna now!
That openening with Nh3, Bg2 and Nf2 isn't new. It's called the Paris opening IIRC. It's mentioned in BCO.
@AnnaCramling I learn a lot from watching your videos, been gaining a lot of confidence in my own moves from watching you make the same kind of moves that i would always disregard because i always presume “well the internet would think there’s a better move here.”
I guess my main question is where would i go to learn more chess theory?
Axel is such a good person! Dream to had him as a friend!
That makes sense. Your shoulder joint is an axel of sorts.
There is a book on the cow! It's called "The defense game" from pafu, someone show this to Anna
I never thought I'd love watching a chess match until I discovered how entertaining and skilled you are at chess. You are the Chess Princess.
Ahhh, come on Anna, what a cliffhanger!... Laughed heartily when the two cows meet on the battlefield, both smelling the flowers. Brilliant 2 games. Hoping you get the 3rd place spot.
I love this series!
Cow vs cow! That's almost as epic as hikaru's and magnus' double bongcloud
anna so nice to opponents she has a great greeting smile
5:05 I feel he was doing an impression of the great carlini lol
Hi Anna! I just started playing the COW, and have won every single game in a row. I did not think it would be a good opening, but now I have changed my mind. At least people are not booked up on it. Thanks for showing it to us. I am shocked so far.
"The cow needs some center too"
Anna,you have the BEST sense of humor playing chess that I have ever seen on You Tube!!!
The sisters can't hold a candle to you!!!
Looks like you had fun with this match, I hope you win the next match. 😊
Anna, watching you is better than not watching you, good luck in all your games 😄 and Axel shouldered his responsibility playing the Cow.
This is the reason we love Anna. ❤
GM Duncan Suttles was known for many creative ways to play on the kingside with the KIA, including other ideas after Nh3.
need to try the new drake opening for sure
Experimental Openings AND it's an Anna video--I never stopped smiling!
anna basically did to his opening what her parents did to her. pia’s critical ‘it’s not very good’ and juan’s supportive ‘i will play it in a game’
Tyler1 is writing most of the cow book moves at this point xD
You can call the book. “Chess dairy”.
"Where's the Beef?"
That was such a fun video thank you 🙂
So freaking awesome!
I also get excited when a guy says he's gonna show me his opening 😂
Hi, i am Axel's cousin, didnt see him for long. Happy that he played Anna. Best wishes man, love you.
How are all the players in this tournament so good looking?! In my area all the board game players are swamp goblins.
All people in your area are
Ouch. That's harsh
Thats how i played when i was a kid, i thought i was so cool didnt know it was an actual opening i always called it my "castle defense" even though castle is an actual move haha
A new video?!? Sweet!
😃
Such dramatic music - I hope it is reserved only for Cow opening games! I am mesmerised
Now Anna knows how Goku felt when Cell tried a Kamehameha on him.
Goku didn’t create the kamehameha .
@@songoku-jx3cbno, but he made it famous
15:30
Smash the french creepy opening😂😂
Actually, the interesting part about the Cow is that if you both play it, it’s like a mutual handicap
nice of anna to let him play white again after he played cow in the first game
Love this
I’m so glad Anna didn’t lose to the cow opening
That's a good game right there.
if I search or use the analyics mode, I don't see the cow opening anymore seems replaced with "Van't Kruijs Opening"
Congratulations
Cowabunga! It's Cow vs. Cow! And that's no bull! 🤣
Another very enjoyable video 👍
That guy has game.
Wait, his 2nd opening is actually known as the "Block opening" as much as I know.
My friend taught me this around 20 years ago..
Very interesting
the cow's gotta graze the center
Well done Anna. You managed you time well and didn't bog yourself done in useless banter. You focused yourself. When you do that you are almost unbeatable.
cowtastrophic opening !
"Rampante" is more like "crawling" than "creeping". I guess he meant like "creeping forward". It could also be used as for something that is "building up"
Rampant in French also means aggressively ambitious.
I have an opening that I call the bull. Looks similar to the cow, but slightly more aggressive. It's been a fun way to open. Would love to share.
like way you look in there eyes yet they dont
