This is a chess game (probably analysis) played between two renowned theoretical physicists: Albert Einstein and Robert Oppenheimer!
The “father of the atomic bomb” misses his chance in Ruy Lopez, then makes a serious mistake and quickly gets crushed by the “father of modern physics”! In the end of the video you can give a try to solve Einstein’s Riddle!
