Interviewer and guest face each other in an epic rapid chess battle. The chess guest has to not only face the questions by the interviewee, but also concentrate on the chess game simultaneously. This leads to interesting answers, and chess positions at times.
Keep in mind, this is only a "club player" level from my part. Don't expect too fabulous games.
Ruben Mantel is a chess player from Germany. He isn't a titled player yet, but with his elo rating of over 2100, he will soon pursue that wish.
Ruben Mantel has achieved his notoriety through a special form of chess. He plays Ultrabullet (15 second chess game) better than 99.9% of the world. Ruben is on par with the chess elite and regularly beats opponents such as Andrew Tang, Sergei Zhigalko or Nihal Sarin in just a few seconds.
What takes this to the extreme is that he streams his Ultrabullet chess games on Twitch.tv, sometimes even commentating on them simultaneously!
Lately, Ultrabullet Chess seems to be getting a bit too slow for him, and he decides to cut the time in half, to 7 1/2 seconds.
How did this interview work on Playchess?
You probably have noticed at the beginning of the video that Ruben and I are using the video & audio option of playchess.com for having this interview.
You can do the same thing as a premium member with a friend, family or strangers from all around the world, to have a nice game of chess, while seeing, and talking to each other. A great alternative, if you are missing the direct connection of an overboard chess game.
Have a look at the video and tutorial of how to arrange a virtual club evening.
