    As a non chess player your Mom's 20 minute rule makes so much sense. And not just because she's a grand master. What do you really gain after 20 minutes? In pretty much any task, once you've processed all the alternatives you end up rejecting almost all of them. If you don't end up with an obvious best move, then you probably are down to 3 or 4 possibilities. If you can't tell which is best, then just pick one. This emotionally very difficult, but at that point you're not problem solving, you're just agonizing. I may not understand chess, but I do understand the interaction of logic and anxiety. Listen to your Mom.

      Sometimes you’re not just calculating when spending that much time. You might have 4 or 5 different ways to trade into an endgame and you’re taking into consideration positional factors that could come in 10-15 moves down the road. Then you also have to consider the tournament standing. Do you need a win or just a draw? Usually I think you’re right and 20 minutes is too much but sometimes there are massive differences between different moves

    • @snowmonster42

      @@flavory9891 Yes, I do realize that chess is a game of alternative universes and as you think about your move you have to play each possible game in your head, but still this is a chaotic system where the ability to predict your opponent's moves is imperfect. I admit that I wasn't really considering the possibility that someone wouldn't be playing to win. I specifically said that I'm not a chess player and that I was speaking more in terms of following algorithms and not mistaking anxiety for solution oriented thinking. I have no idea what an appropriate time cutoff would be, but Pia clearly does have this expertise. That's all I meant. And I also have no idea why I've been watching these games when I really have no idea what's happening. It's still interesting, though.

      I've never really played chess except as a kid up to about the age of 14. I was pretty good at it and most often played my grandfather. I beat him most of the time. The thing is, my grandfather was a world class checkers player. Checkers and pool. The only chance I ever had is if he toyed with me. I've watched Anna agonize here game after game extending the permutations of play to the point it hurts her play rather than helps. She ends up toiling with rapid moves and losing because of it. Maybe if she just rethinks the process of play and sets a reasonable time limit for making a move. It would force her into more decisive and confident action. She does the best job of anyone I know at making chess interesting and fun and I appreciate what she does.. But I wonder if she could be better at chess? If that's the goal then she will have to evaluate how to do that a little differently.

    At first I thought you were in Sweden and marveled at how early Spring was over there in comparison to our current wintry weather here in New England with some areas set to receive up to two feet of snow as a Northeaster barrels in. Your mention of the island of Majorca in Spain early on didn't register until I saw the palm trees. No wonder you're happy! But we break into the 60's next week. Good luck in the tournament!

    Anna is satisfied with her time management in this game but my honest opinion is she spent too much time on those 8 or 9 opening moves. I am a weaker player than her but I would spend less time in the opening even though I am not familiar with it. (I would play 4.a3 instead of 4.g3.) Also, it is quite clear that opponent's idea with 5...c5 was simply to get Anna to an unfamiliar territory. He didn't care too much that positions arising from this sequence are almost always slightly worse for black. And he made a right choice - Anna got into time trouble and then he overplayed her.

    • @magitsu
      @magitsu Před měsícem +7

      Yes, it was almost guaranteed that it would lead to time pressure forced mistakes later. 1.18 vs 0.39 left is intimidating to look at for the rest of the game and then witness how your opponent instamoves due to him using your thinking time.

    • @elvenbread191
