what is the significance of the child winning with the black pieces that is mentioned as an important fact at the introduction of the video?

[jrobichess]

Generally speaking black is a move behind from the onset of the game. It's small, but noteworthy especially in this game.

I absolutely love the vids you make but please stop removing people's comments then replying to them

[jrobichess]

I dont remove comments and reply to them. Sometimes the author of the comment removes it afterwards. Not sure why exactly, but it generally happens when they say something incorrect. Thanks for checking out the vid!

The GM's blunder (b3) was very idiotic. I can't believe this was actually considered a serious game.

17.b3? is a poor move, but it's 19.Ne2? from which White's defeat stems. This position has happened before in a game from 1952, in which White played 19.Rb1. After 19...Qxd4 20.Qf3, Black is a pawn up, but it is not hopeless for White. In fact, in the 1952 game White managed to salvage a draw.

After 19.Ne2, Black walks over White for the rest of the game.
