Judit Polgar Comes Out Of Retirement On ChessKid (For An Hour!)
GM Judit Polgar combined forces with ChessKid.com earlier this fall in an attempt to break the world record for "Largest Online Chess Tournament." Part of the prizes for tournament winners included a blitz game against her!
Part one, which showed the four kids' games against FunMasterMike, can be found here.
What was there to fear? She's only the greatest female player of all time and had five years to prepare novelties against them! Kidding aside, these would be some of the first games on record from the legendary player since she retired in 2014!
