ladies and gentlemen I have a lot of different chess content on this channel that is why chess is in the name now contrary to popular belief chess players do actually go outside we do occasionally touch grass we do occasionally breathe fresh air and in my case when I do that I then promptly enter a building where I no longer can touch any grass and instead I play more chess and that is what I did uh a few months ago here in 20 24 you see I was invited to Google the headquarters of Google here in New York City to do what's called a Google Talk where I talk at Google I did like an hour interview about Chess I will link it in the description because it only has 30,000 views and listen that means it hasn't hit your algorithm yet but watch it because there's going to be hundreds of thousands of you that watch this so I'll talk about everything talk about my business talk about the chess ecosystem and so on and then I played a bunch of googlers because they're supposed to be really smart gifted talented so in this video I'm playing three people Yuri miles and cola two of whom I knew one of whom I knew from my childhood uh I hope you enjoy the banter I hope you enjoy the uh Good Vibes all these players are quite strong around Master Level and chess and one of them may or may not have defeated me I don't know you'll have to stay and watch to find out thanks for the invite Google watch the Google talk after you watch this video that's all I have for you right now enjoy all right okay whoa this is generally the reaction you get when uh you play this move yeah yeah people not really have to see most all right and then here you definitely don't play E5 right no that could be what it's really really screwed up for Neal kind yeah I know oh I want to I want to get you away from something that would make you happy okay but I mean this has to be the best move like you got to play that okay black pieces pie h all right take the center stop you from taking the center simple game just I feel like at this rate you guys invited Magnus or something just I think the appearance fee would be a a little too high yeah I was like thinking what happens if you just go for my Bishop that's a very very professional move okay just Hans demon emerges final boss it's going to be close yeah close okay let's you put the night there you should probably do it right yeah okay in the words of your name is Yuri say in the words of Yuri you have two Bishops once I heard the accent I was like this is bad this is really bad y Yuri gets like 300 Point bonus just on the accent like like on chess.com yesterday I got 2400 IM from like uh I don't know somewhere maybe and I was I was immediately like oh okay it's person's like 300 points stronger than the rating again I spent 30 seconds nothing happened in my brain just like a monkey hitting a drum like I it's very we're impressive I must say I thought about this but I thought I shouldn't be scared should I be scared I don't know probably should for we should just end the game CU I have such a pretty setup like all my pieces together for I like how we're both unhappy he's unhappy I'm unhappy it's chess it's like nobody's happy in a chess game I don't know how you managed to lose the pawn to be honest it's like good I think the lake moves long us what it's a nice one that I don't know oh man feel like you can see the progression as we've gone yeah I mean I feel he should guess my ELO you must play over the board right you must be like no not really really no wow not in like 10 years well I played some but you play like online or mostly online like Blitz everything everything got to be like 24 2500 Blitz 24 yeah yeah yeah very nice game our next player yeah um you may actually get you may actually know okay um so is Miles here what's up hey miles no way what's up man what's up dude what how you doing that's crazy I know when come to the office I was likeu about myself about him about you oh what's up guys I'm miles I work at YouTube obviously but I know love you from growing up uh we know each other from New York City and we haven't seen each other in 11-ish years 11 12 High School the last memory I have is US discussing Pokemon in the Marshall chess club you had like a device that's like you were play you were playing we were and I wasn't allowed to have a devices so I was like he's really cool what goes for cool in the chess Community like person with Pokemon probably Nintendo DS something like that yep people that work here that don't know to DS if which always freaks me out that's really weird you're so old it's good to see you yeah man what oh that is wild mil get pick I going to say do you want to pick you haven't gotten a pick yet no no you could you can okay um I'll be white okay we I mean I like it it's a good you know a oh my God you guys uh play together in growing up I'm not sure we ever probably played once or twice just like growing up in the city like play against each other in like various us CF tournaments and all that yeah at the Marshal chess club and then yeah exactly and then did you also follow this path of like quitting chess and you called me out so hard right there like when you said like kids who play when they're till high school and then stop playing and get a corporate job I was like dude Read Me Harder yeah I was no it's true and then you play and it's like not cool and then you yeah I mean it those look hard like when you want to I know to be as good as you are and to also be like going to college and everything and doing a lot of stuff like that takes an immense amount of talent like I was a good player growing up but trying to apply to college and all this stuff and eventually try to get employeers like it's so much time to be at a certain level so I decied took a step back and then came back to it about a year ago now it's been playing like a year in USCF tournaments again it's been very hard been losing to a lot of 11y olds and 10 eight and seven year old but it's so much from me back playing and it's great you yeah that's so wild oh my gosh I know to get to you you did you did you get 2200 is that your goal now or it is my goal right now I'm at like 2,000 right now so trying to get back to it yeah 2000 is nuts first of all to gets a 2,000 over the board is like 24 2500 online I don't know how much Blitz you play on ch.com it's supposed to be if you're active like if you don't play too much Blitz then but so 2400 2500 Rapid or Blitz is about 2,000 let's say USCF and that's crazy hard and then you get there and you're like wait I'm nowhere near what it's supposed to be to be a realize how much more there is to go and then you're like yeah I'm tired yeah and then you you know it's much more practical to learn computer science or literally anything else like literally anything else basically that you can monetize but it's good to be back and good to be playing good luck Good Luck get started so mil and playing Black yes that's what's that's what's happening it's such a mystifying way of moving the pieces it's like lulling me into a no you know the thing is like I'm so used to like playing a lot of young kids that are really good but they like slam the pieces and everything I'm just like I got to take a step back like this is the work week I'm not trying to yeah playing the kid is like exactly oh that's your actual move okay yeah yeah yeah oh yeah that was yes that's my actual move yeah it's a f move I'm just like I didn't know like you're doing a bit right now um no no I'm I'm trying to trade Bishops that's what that's what that's what you do in U an advanced French I suppose some adorable lullab here and this is um it's so funny I work at YouTube music so I was like I'm hoping they play some like YouTube music plays or something but I don't know the copyright situation works like there yeah this is the problem actually of going to a bar and playing chess with the camera is they might play hits oh shoot I didn't think about that yeah so in Toronto I was like excuse me excuse me can you can you be a little more polite of my copyright issues yes I'm an influencer so please so honestly there's so many creators that go out in public they talk to people and I'm like that's terrifying like I would no but I wouldn't like and some of them are very very nice and then but I would I'm so SC I'm so antisocial like that's that's a crazy thing uh for me to to think about um my Bishop's kind of stupid huh that was sort of short cited means for conving I mean probably fine like I don't know like I know stopping you from castling like makes the most sense in the world but you do you I will I will unabashedly do me and maybe lose this game I'm glad I frankly am glad if nothing else you're doing you and doing it very well how wholesome no friends in chess you know I was going to say like old something this is like incredible music I mean I got to tell you I know I keep talking about it but was really did we change it that what happened there or Chang something a little bit Jazzy oh no no it was it's cool back into the elev could you imagine if like you have to get into an elevator and play someone to go to your like floor at Google if you don't if you don't win the game you can't get off that be interesting cont big elev should try I don't know what's happening anymore it's just Google speak now just you want to do this thing at Google I don't for this position requires like a 90-minute game not a it really does I was like do I want to go like an advanced French with like a like a Blitz game but I think it's a cool position Advanced French is very trendy right now among the big boy feel like we had such a bad rap for a long time and then like at least for people playing white it's like but now everything is playable which is like it's true but I just feel like the advance like oh everyone play C5 like it's easy to play as um it's easy to play against black like no it's actually a pretty Pleasant position like chess PE wouldn't understand cougers no these are my my colleague please a little more respect thank you sorry you guys are the smartest the AI developers apparently according to our friend on the video only 47 seconds my goodness yes Mr KY was very dismissive of my human abilities they offered me to chess boox James candy that was the joke you gu yeah yeah I was like no no I'm I like living it's just nice I thought I was going to get more than that but fine whoops I'm not just stealing oh just when it was getting like super good I know you really do need more than 3 minutes for this but I get a little time back maybe we can make it a little more fun what that's so aggressive oh okay then I guess I will go here you don't have to approve my moves if anybody told you that I'm trying to make conversation thought it was a nice thing to do when they have a guess over that's I just that's true we go I'm not even sure I guess I have to just go here I have three seconds no that's the only Advantage I have right now why do you all not want to get checkmated weird Quirk of the game I suppose just just just nice game all these games just come down to like nonsense time scrambles oh my goodness I hate the advanced French when I played it I was like I hope he doesn't play Advanced French and then he played it and as a chess player you just got to be like all right here we go yeah I love chess is Bishop B5 is that strategy make sense there because I fig a A4 and Knight C3 come so fast you get beat back with the bishop no the way you played it is the is the happiest I can get cuz you give me B4 there's like some way you can exploit it cuz it's obviously a stupid strategy but you have to exploit it by like sacrificing a pawn and then putting your Bishop on C2 it's very unintuitive okay you just got to know that I've tried I I I might play this in Tournament game so if anybody's watching I you know I good to know great to see you yes good to see you nice game last player you're going to come up against you ready for the seventh game yeah what is what is going to happen am I going to like what has happened do I got to like's you want to do a quick introduction on yourself and your um chess your chess experience it's uh so my name is Cola I work in uh product operations for workspace um I guess my chess experience is very similar to Ms you know you started playing chess as a kid but then life happens then you just play as a hobby I feel like we've we've we've never like played at are you based in New York played you before but I'm not sure I'm based in New York okay I might have played you in the Marshall yeah maybe but that's a long time yeah a long time oh my god do you want a we black I think you won by the way I I might have lost I I have no evidence so if you say I won I'll take it yeah I'll play away okay and are you your title yeah National Master these are rated games right we have all the conditions we have a you know we got an Arbiter somewhere and uh can I just Farm some rating and awesome good luck this is the last thing I wanted to see in the final game this opening oh two very annoying openings back to back you're playing it well I would hope it's only move three something went wrong already I uh I shouldn't do the Google Talk oh London is like one of these things you got to you got people throwing Tantrums over you know they do some crazy stuff I don't know what I'm doing anymore just just developing stuff Magnus play something like this before it's yeah good footsteps to uh to follow I like having an opponent who thinks instead of me doing it like I I can relax for a second okay I think I have to take it it's certainly one of the options I don't like my position music in my ears I haven't done anything yet I'm I'm very happy um question is do I play D5 or do I wait for you to play C4 I don't know playing C4 I Castle you won't play C4 no okay we can make a deal so chess actually works it's just just like politics um I guess technically it doesn't matter right I think he's going to play C4 man of his word promise I like this guy I like I'm peaceful he said he wasn't going to play uh a certain move and he he didn't play it okay okay that's not so peaceful it's like looking for some activity now would a peaceful Man play the move Knight to E5 maybe I don't I don't know it's possible really isn't it a free pwn generally I think okay I got free food today I'll take a free Pond damaged my pawns a little bit but okay it's Pawn yes someone's getting emails just in case somehow I developed a bunch of play I don't know what happened going I have to place some end game and game SEC good for who what are you thinking about I don't even what I'm thinking about it's all it's all a huge illusion thought you might go there oh I see really cuz I don't even see just kind of was like I look smart okay there it's really annoying you did that on purpose was that all part of the plan it was part I was like man that's that's creative is there alarm going off it's very convenient googlers for CR oh some time nice game wow I was too enamored with the position the final boss hello it's me uh you see the video ended abruptly uh after I lost that game um the cameraman didn't want uh you know any of the uh the bad vibes in the video I think the camera was actually dying of battery so yeah I lost that last game I I was um I had a better end game and then I just misplayed it and I lost so I went six- one I believe I beat some good players but I will have to return to Google HQ and uh have some revenge and actually what's funny is after that game an even stronger player showed up to the meet and greet and his name is John Hughes I actually played John Hughes like multiple times in my life I played him at the North American Youth Chess Championship of like 2011 maybe and now he works at Google so kind of crazy um that's uh that was my little visit do watch the Google talk though for real for real and um I'll see you in the next video and let me know if you enjoy this IRL content that's all get out of here
