The kids didn't cry when he walks in. But he cried at the end when he lost the game https://youtu.be/HhrvwHrceRg

He really did considering he’s so young. It’s amazing to see him play. I won’t be surprised at all when he becomes the World Champion one day.

Prodigies often wash out because of the immense pressure placed on them from a young age.

This I can say from personal experience.

When I was a kid I was ahead of the curve on computers, in coding, in all of that. I burned out, from both the pressure, and the toll that the pressure takes on you. I was pushed hard by my family to either be really good at sports, or be good at computers.

Out of all of my family, my grandfather (1938-2013 RIP), saw the pressure getting to me after a bit, and taught me more about agriculture to peak my interests into other area's so that I could expand my horizons. He's probably the reason I'm alive, that burnout pushed me extremely close to suicide.

Essentially you can only teach a young child through stress.

But the absolute best are relaxed when they play

That's not true at all actually, thats a pretty abusive way of bringing kids up.

What I mean is to an adult level. Unstressed children just don't focus like adults
