Mish Osipov vs Anatoly Karpov

This was a game played between 3 year old chess "prodigy" Misha Osipov and former world champion Anatoly Karpov. Misha was pretty good for a 3 year old but Karpov didn't play his HARDEST. A year later, Misha still was hanging queens, which he did in a game againt a 99 year old GM (FYI the GM didn't take). But here is the game anyway. Misha with white. He ended up losing on time.

In conclusion, Misha (who had 10 minutes BTW) takes quite long on his moves, plays relatively solidly, but isn't outstanding

However, he played with fierce passion needless to say, as following the bitter defeat to none other than the greatest positional player of all time, cried like a baby! Hehe such a cry-baby!

I would say: "Come on man, grow up!"

He was 3 years old while playing against a GM, he probably will be better than you and me and anyone (Maybe he cant be a World Champ but still he will be in the top 5 list)

i hope he has a bright future

At age four he would be able to count to five, at five he will start to understand words like "humor", at six "sarcasm"... and when he is 103 he will tell his grandchildren's children: "I played Karpov, when I was about your age, losing, and cried like a baby. Now that baby is ready to kick the bucket, I was just like you kids and someday you'll be just like me ...still crying though... for I made the wrong move 100 years ago..."  

He’s about 10 now and rated just over 1000. I have a few pupils of a similar age that are far stronger. I would say based on his rating trajectory and lack of updates about him, he’s probably lost interest.

Ok but they were literally literally a baby (or a toddler, whatever)

tripled pawns

like ik you're trying to hit a joke but man, this feels disrespectful

He will forget about it when he grows up.  

And not all talented people become successful. It simply does not work like that. Trust me, IT DOES NOT!

A famous game for sure. Osipov never got very strong after this but he was certainly quite solid for a three year old. 

Wait where did you find that?

when he said that, i remembered. I did an research about that kid too. Just look at FIDE

You're right, not all of the talented people get successful, but think it like a tree, if you give it water, it will grow.                                                                                                                          But this argue or debate of ours will not change the fact that he lost interest at Chess

Sadly, he lost interest at Chess.

can you show me the puzzle

that misha smashed

Of course, the game has to be analyzed and the two players need to be compared. But... are we in all seriousness comparing this baby to one of the greatest GMs in the world? Let's compare him to other kids his age. Most of the 3 year olds in the "first-world" countries (the most developed countries in the world!) are still wearing diapers and trying to learn the ABC song. For a three year old that was simply unbelievable. "Cried like a baby"? Of course, he was still a baby back then. Do you all remember what you did when you were three? And none of you probably had such a difficult experience as Misha did. Sadly, maybe that televised experience was the exact reason for the decrease in his interest for chess.
