Hetul Shah Vs Nurlan Ibrayev - 9 Year Old Beats Chess GM

thank you very much for this post

MUSLIM POWERRR haha

Most definitely - I really like how even at the top levels (Chorus 2008, etc) the best in the world are still making mistakes. It keeps things interesting from my perspective, and it clearly shows that at the end of the day it's people playing this game that matters.

Thanks whikor - I really enjoyed going over this one.

Thanks unsuidojo!

Excellent comment!

Thanks topshonuff!

Some sources list him as the "world's most embarrased GM" but I think that's being a bit tough on the guy, but I would wager he does feel quite embarrased at letting that line rip into his position, especially when a few moves before he could have been sitting quite nicely with a standard move option.

India - he is now the youngest Indian player to ever beat a Grandmaster of chess.

This weekend hopefully. =)

Thanks for checking it out!

I will check into it for sure DorothyFan!

Thanks Rollin558!

Totally agree - amazing for a nine year old.

Great comment Castle! They got completely out of common moves at 16...BF8 from what I could dig up. I like the reference to "inattention blindess" - I think that hits it right on the money.

Thanks alec3232 - I appreciate the comment!
