  • By this motivation video only, we have launched a website with the name of makemegenius

  • I vant you, Susan Polgar. You're gorgeous and immensely talented.

  • This video is ridiculous because Judit is in a completely different league than her sister Susan. At one point she was in the top 10 players in the world, well above any woman's achievement.

  • screw this ima go read a book.

  • @PsychStudentUSC Peolpe often forget: there are 3 Polgár girls. All of them trained to be chess masters. Susan (Zsuzsa), Judit, and Zsófia. Susan lives in the U. S. and has a daily-updated blog about chess realted issues, therefore people often forget about her sisters. Judit lives in Budapest. Zsofia lived in Izrael, but now in Canada - if I know it right.

    Judit only plays against man. She has been named the best woman chess player of the century.

    Zsófia (Sofia) makes drawings and paintings.

  • what if a stack of Playboys fell out?

  • @iDraw3G then you would have an 80% chance of becoming a pornstar.

  • @iDraw3G or a basement dweller who lacks social experiences and has a very low self-esteem

    don't forget the part where he's currently obese

  • HAJRÁ ZSUZSA!GO SUSAN! Vágd haza őket!

  • I'm glad a chess set fell out and not a checkers set...

  • She is awesome!!! Go SUSAN!!!

  • Finally a grandmaster tells the truth about getting good at chess!

    Now I know why Michael De La Maza's book on chess is a best seller and producing results that are unbelieveable amongst chess players.

  • check out "Relapse"2-player board game by Jeffery A. Krueger

  • Smart chicks are hot.

  • true..look up Dr.alice roberts, she did a series about how the body works on the BBC a year or two ago. Smart and beautiful!

  • i think its proving that hard work and determination pays aff more times but not every time.

  • WT HELL WAS THAT that didnt look like chees at all! more like speed chees!

  • ha cuando estas en la cima dices?? jajaj , sabes que tuvieron que hacer con Bruce Lee que estaba en la cima? murder jajaja there was no other way to beat him .

  • Otra prueba mas para mi tesis.. la inteligencia no existe solo la voluntad para hacer las cosas haa.... y saber controlar la energia emocional....hmmm esa estuvo buena me la voy a anotar..

  • wow..she is amazing..!!

    in addition she is Hungarian :P..

    csak tudd büszkék vagyunk rád..^^

  • @szd21 Hungarian race is inferior

    kill yourself please.

  • was that an excalibur clock??

  • I played her today in Texas Tech university, she was playing against me and another 20 players at the same time, I almost beat her, but then again she's Susan Polgar!!! the best of the best

  • Hello i need the entiry documentary , do you know where can i get it? Greetings from Ecuador

  • Hello i need this full video, i own a chess academy i want to show this to the parents, how can i get it??

  • ist amazing ...... BBC london make and produccer Wondefull Program About susan polgar

  • is she even in the world's top 10? because i believe that she would be totally demolished. when you'r on top, it doesn't take long before someone starts figuring out the way you play and how to beat you.

  • to say we are not all equally smart is inaccurate. everyone is smart, but it is the way we store and process information that is distinctive.all grandmasters show higher neuron activity in the brain that is way off the charts than the average player. they didn't get there overnight, because the brain had to reconfigure itself in other to better concentrate,analye and executive.

  • You're wrong anyone can become a genius.

  • u r rite, any1 can be a genius. but some people have a genetic advantage over others. also it is still debatable whether or not it is nature or nuture that makes people smarter than others. i think it is both.you can be poor and underpriviledge but still smart. look at Obama, he went to harvard.

  • You're right friend.

  • i'm willing to pay for that series please !!!nat geo sell some of those thank you

  • Please upload the whole series!

  • please upload the entire series

  • yeah, i'd like to see the episode "born genius", the piano prodigy marc yu. please upload it! thanks a lot!

  • actually someone uploaded them on google videos. i watched them

  • hey she's a hungarian right? see "matyas kuti" a rubiks cube blindfold master!! and a real genius!! take note he is a 14 year old hungarian!! maybe hungarians are real genius heheehe..watch him on youtube and see for yourself how short he memorizes a cube...

  • yeah! 5x5x5 blindfold in 10 minutes is insane

  • i like susan more than judit

  • Is there a reason for the preference?

  • wtf she is like a computer calculating the possivle step to winning in sec

  • nah, they just see how to make the chess board "position" better. thats basically like solving the rubik's cube very quickly. quick sub concious mind through loads of practise

  • In the documentary, the term used is chunking. For Susan, she has the 'images' of various chess positions strongly etched on her mind. She doesn't calculate every possibility. Rather, she relies on her vast mental storage of chess scenarios / positions and makes her decisions. Intuition's also involved. :)

  • it happens when you study many chess lines and variations. everything the opponent plays, you already know which piece to move before he did!! and also it helps you in the zone where you don't think about what to play, all you do is play, and believe me most of the times you won't know how you got into just a great position and won but you did.natural chess ability is not enough to survive as a grandmaster!! very easily you could lose if you follow the wrong line.

  • 1:21. He looks way too OG to be playing chess.
