How about a “heifer” variation?
More like a brand moo chess opening😭
Bully variation, if you go rogue.
U should add a variation called the smoked brisket variation
Can I beat anna playing cow opening if she plays cow opening?
I just won 6 games in a row thanks to the cow opening thank you anna it's amazing 🙌🏻
Deez knights
If noone has ever played this opening before it means it must be really really bad
Moo…milk. milking. Bam bam bam
Smiling 😂
i learned to never play an opening named after an animal
1. e4 e6 2. d4 d6 3. Bd3 Ne7 4. Nf3 Nd7 5. c3 Ng6 6. h4 h5 7. e5 Nb6 8. Bxg6 fxg6 9. Qc2 *… something went wrong 😬 ; me playing with Black
I'm waiting in anticipation for the Beer and barbecue variation
I played the famous cow opening and I immediately won.
Cowabunga
Cow opening: Curd Variation
Cow opening: Grass Gambit
I play the hippo opening, which is pretty similar, so of course I had to try the cow. I just played my first cow game and won, so it's definitely a playable opening. I do have some advice. From white's perspective, after you move the two center pawns to the third rank I recommend immediately moving the A and H pawns to that rank because people LOVE to move their bishops onto the diagonal to either check the king or attack your queen. That results in blocking with the knights, which is fine in the hippo since that's where you want the knights, but in the cow if you're knights are pinned on d2 and e2, then you can't actually get your horns on! Having the A and H pawns on the third rank is different from what Anna played, but that's what I did, that's what I do with the hippo and I highly recommend that with the cow, because if you get your knights pinned then you might as well just switch to the hippo since you can't get your cow horns.
I'll definitely play this again and see what happens, I'll probably also play it at my local club just to see how people react.
You are such a funny and clever woman Anna! 😂Very interesting new opening. I had to think of 'La vache qui rit' (The laughing cow. The famous French cheese) all the time!
"Cow Pat"
Imagine Ding Liren plays the cow next year to defend his title 😂😂
These mooves might "behoof" Me to try it.
Played the cow three times and won every game!
Nice mewoovs
You could go with the Alf Garnett variation, and call it the Silly Moo.
We never saw how the Black game ended lol
How about the Laughing Cow Variation? OK I know it's a bit cheesy…
Cows I have known: Blossom, Clover, Daisy 🤩🤩🤩
My vegan bias is confused with my perfectionist bias. I literally can't label my feelings about this opening, but I'm smiling.
I like it! The cow-abunga trap also has my vote. Now we need the Holstein or Friesian Variation to celebrate the Dutch cow. Evolene variation is a cool name after the endangered Swiss breed. As long as Anna doesn't reference herself because she's anything but a cow. It would be an udder disaster.
Just played this as white while watching the video and I won. Moooo!
After the Cow opening I'd play King to e2. This would be so completely unexpected the opponent would surely not know how to respond. I would call this the "Dead Cow" opening.
We need a gambit variation!
You know this will be officially approved when levy makes a video and says in his classic Loudest violent voice
" and then they move… KNIGHT TO D2 !!!!!! "
900 rated Here… IT works, my Opposition ist deeply confused
That’s pretty fun! Reminds me of the informal ‘highest honour’ in chemistry: an element named after yourself, there are lot’s of ideas for variations, but words that sound nice and have some meaning would be quite interesting!
You should start saying “mooooos” instead of moves, if you’re going to explain the cow opening 😂
Muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! 😛
I’m 1 win no losses with the cow! Mooooo hooo hoooo! I won in 8 moves
dinner variation
Bullshit opening.
The hamburger variation.
i won on my first cow opening . It leads into some crazy agressive positions . I like the idea of a Milktruck variation, Minotaur defense, and the deadly 'Buttercup attack'
The steak variation should be the refutation of the cow opening
Bulldozer variation
Anna was definitely on the good stuff when she came up with this, especially the name part.
You probably made a breakthrough kudos tbh. I'm jealous xD 👍❤️
Mad cow…
I used the Cow and immediately got a win against a higher-rated opponent. It was a white knuckled thrill ride from the midgame on.
Fear the Cow! 🐮☠️
It would be awesome to name the variations and tactics after dairy products 😅 For example:
– The whipping cream variation
– The skimmed milk defense
– The butter gambit
– The cheddar cheese check
Excellent opening and that whole story! I love it!
This video should be renamed as "the next Hikaru's speed run"
