Funnily enough, I saw an episode of star trek where Data used exactly the same principle to beat a grandmaster at 'Strategema', a fictional tactical board game. Reminds me of a crocodile or a spider just waiting until the prey slips up for an instant before pouncing. Very effective, and obviously extremely difficult to counter. Awesome depth of analysis Sean, Cheers!

Ha! I know the Star Trek episode you mean, yes, it's a good one! Glad you enjoyed the video. All the best,

Sean

Hmm did i miss something? Or were is part 3?

[SeanGGodley]

They are all there, sorry I did not link them together, I didn't think to when I was making it. You can find it easily if you go to the page with my videos on it; these four videos are all together. Hope this helps!

[buffguy86]

outstanding series, by far the best ive seen, looking forward to more videos from you

[SeanGGodley]

Thanks very much. More coming soon!

What a brilliant game! Petrosian is my all time favorite after Tal: the contrast of their styles showed me how deep advanced chess can be. I hope one day I can get to be half this good.

[TheCrossedwires]

good ol Petrosian! I really enjoyed this game considering the winner of the game played so defensively.

[plugger543]

tigran was champion until 1969 correct?

[MrZingnigga]

what a great psychological game. petrosian plays as though he has all the time in the world, content to simply exhaust his opponent.

[tankto0n]

[Luisa7x]
