    Why couldn't the king attack the queen?

    Scholars Mate with extra steps…still, knowing the layout of the board without seeing it is impressive

    You're attleast decent to the game if I was against him he would checkmate me with the first move

    I don't know if he's a chess master or not. But those that specialize in chess usually memorize positions and those that are exceptional can definitely play blindfolded. They have seen the game so much, familiar with so many common moves that's it's easy for them to hold it in memory. Kudos man.

    If I was her I would definitely announce that I'm going to do an impossible move just to see how he reacted.

    fun fact: in 2005, levy played 10 grandmasters simultaneously blindfolded. He lost every game.

    He just did a modified scholars mate. It is not too much to keep in your head. But he it was a risk that move doesn't work at all on people who know to look for it

    When players play chess blindfolded they've reached a stage where they can materialise the board and pieces in their mind accurately with great detail,

    still not a fair fight @gotham 🤣🤣🤣

    "Truth be told the game was rigged from then start"

    She played like a noob. That was the worst game for white

    And what does being blindfold does? All the moves are being told to him, he just need to do a countermove

    She played so badly that i had to check her subscribe amount

    Not all that impressed. This early with this sort of variation… a lot of this would have been studied in depth and memorised

    DAAAAAAMN Komugi clapping meruem vibe from HXH

    I’ll be really impressed when he can actually play blindfolded. Purely winning from the sounds he hears lol

    “You go so fast” that’s what she said😐🙁😢

    respectfully. She made it way too easy for him.

    Am I the only person who refuses to acknowledge that's a checkmate? King takes the queen, no checkmate and if the king can't take the queen, then there's also no checkmate.

    I honestly was gay for him for a few seconds 💀

    She literally didn’t gain anything from most of those plays😂

    I would have surrendered when he pulled out the blindfold.

    Like what the

    And this is why men shouldn't be allowed in women's sports

    Its crazy to think that Magnus can do this against multiple grandmaster opponents simultaneously

    That's my boy.

    I mean, it's apparent she doesn't know how to play chess. Just watch her first 5 moves.

    This guy just tried to use a four move checkmate on her, blind-folly 😮

    This reminds me of a chinese drama/serial(i don't remember) i watched as a child. And it was baffling to see a game of chess being played mentally.

    As a person who played chess for 12 years (since i was 5) I can say that this is a very common skill. About a year or two since you learned chess you have to learn to plan the next moves in your head. A lot of kids in my age was able to play chess without moving the chess when they were 10. In chess you have to be able to plan the next 5 moves correctly without mistake in order to take medal in a country that is a competitive in chess. In my country chess is very popular and half of the people know chess at least at a beginner level. So kids have to be able to play blindfolded by imagining the whole game in their head in order to be successful.

    She: "Respectfully"
    Also she: "What the f*ck"
