These are some of the world's most popular board games that we've all grown up playing.

And I've spent the last six months

meticulously collecting my own data and uncovering all the simple tricks

and hacks that will guarantee you an average win rate of over 90%.

How'd you do that?

Next!

And some of them are so simple.

That really works.

We'll change the way you look at these games forever.

Is that even legal?

In fact, I'm so confident in my new skills,

I came to this public park to offer $100 to anyone who beats me in any of them.

Is this for real?

Yeah, pick a game.

Jenga.

Ooh, I was hoping you'd say that.

Now the reason I'm so willing to put my money where my mouth is is

because I have some experience using science to expose how to win games at the carnival, in the arcade, and even in the living room.

Is your person Max?

And this glorious defeat of my nephew, you, along with all the other tiers of defeat over the games of Guess Who that I dominated,

were all courtesy of Mr. Malloy, my original high school statistics teacher, who I had approached 10 years ago in search of the perfect

Guess Who strategy, and he gave me this one, which wins 96 % of the time.

Basically, you want to cut the number of characters in half with each question you ask.

For example, does your person's name start with the letter A to M?

If their answer is yes, then your next question would be, does your person's name start with letter A through E,

once again eliminating half the characters.

And if you keep repeating this, you'll win on average in 5 .5 guesses.

So if you play best of five, you'll win 96 % of your games and lose 100 % of your friends.

So today, in honor of Mr. Malloy, I'm going to show you how to almost always win five more board games including

Connect Four, Battleship, Tic -Tac -Toe, Jenga, and Monopoly.

And you'll see how these strategies worked out in a

head -to -head competition against one of the greatest board game players of all time.

But first, we needed some data.

So I gathered the four most accomplished researchers I could find in 10 minutes and assigned them four random locations.

Oh, fun!

Okay.

It's been fun.

It's been a fun ride.

Go get some data.

We wanted a true cross -section of the population.

So we went to an elementary school.

What's going on with your hands they're just covered in glue nice great a senior center hi how's it going with blues

okay hey judy and a biker bar i see you have a skull ring did you study medicine

and to pull my own weight i even went out and gathered some data of my own

Let the games begin.

You owe me $4.

Pocket change ticket.

F5.

Oh, you sunk my battleship.

You sunk my battleship, you rat.

I won.

How do I not see that?

I can connect four here.

I already won.

Oh my God.

I'm actually too good at Jenga.

Whoops.

Take it.

You win.

Oh.

Does that mean I won?

You lost, unless you're going to hurt me, in which case you won.

Bro, how are you doing this?

And I win.

Yes!

We're not sure about that.

Cut.

I'm going to jail.

Oh, so sorry.

Won't be the first time.

Okay.

After a few hours of playing, my team was starting to get a real sense of what strategies worked.

Once we got back to Crunch Labs, the only remaining question was...

Where's Bob?

And don't forget to polish the carburetor.

Things got a little crazy at the pool table.

Wow!

What happened?

I got data.

Alright, well, thank you for your service.

I'll collect these and get to work.

So I took all their data and video footage,

then organized and compiled it to see if I could find some patterns across all the winning games.

And sure enough, after analyzing hundreds of head -to -head matches, the winning strategies started to emerge.

So after narrowing them down to the most effective two or three tricks per game, I took them to the streets.

My master plan was simple.

Test my strategies against random park players, share the tricks with you, then go head -to -head with the final boss of board games.

Except there was just one problem.

Up till now, these tricks only worked in theory.

Hello.

Hi.

What would you like to play?

Connect four.

Connect four, okay.

I was confident my strategies would work, but out of the gate, this kid was cracked.

My confidence started to waver.

You dirty, dirty dog.

100

One wrong move, and we'll be back to square one on all our strategies.

101

GG.

102

Next! Is it connect two?

103

Wait, is it?

104

I won.

105

I won.

106

Oh, the game's over.

107

I got four in a row.

108

I feel like you owe me $100.

109

Do you have $100?

110

Next!

111

Rock, paper, scissors, shoot.

112

C3.

113

Hit.

114

D8.

115

Hit.

116

D6.

117

Hit.

118

B9.

119

Hit.

120

I8.

121

Missed.

122

A bad sandwich for lunch.

123

My real guess is I3.

124

Hit.

125

The strategies were working well.

126

You sunk my battleship.

127

You sunk my battleship.

128

You sunk my battleship.

129

It's true.

130

It really works.

131

I'm so close.

132

Next. Are you sure?

133

No, Leo.

134

That's the one move you don't.

135

I feel like I'm going to lose.

136

Oh!

137

It cost Mom $100.

138

Dang it!

139

Undefeated!

140

How'd you do that?

141

Next!

142

Rock, paper, scissors, shoot.

143

Punk!

144

Rock, paper, scissors, shoot.

145

This truly works.

146

We are not editing this out.

147

Now you might have noticed I have yet to lose at rock, paper, scissors.

148

That's for one of two reasons.

149

The first is if you challenge your opponent and don't give them much time to think, We're gonna play rock, paper, scissors.

150

Rock.

151

Then just say, rock, paper, scissors, shoot.

152

It will almost always throw scissors.

153

Maybe because scissors is the last thing they heard and they panic.

154

I don't know.

155

But I swear this works like 90 % of the time.

156

That really works.

157

The second reason is for a less surprised opponent in a best of three situation

158

because the data shows win or stay and lose or switch to the next in line between rock, paper, and scissors.

159

So to exploit that tendency, all you need to remember is see what won, then beat that one, regardless of who lost.

160

So for example, if you play paper and they throw a rock, you see what won and beat that one,

161

so your next throw should be scissors to beat your previous paper.

162

Now let's say in a different game, you throw paper and they throw scissors, so if you see what won and beat that one,

163

you should throw a rock to beat the previous scissors they just won with.

164

Of course, this won't guarantee a victory, but in a best of 20, you will statistically win 75 % of the time.

165

Bonk.

166

That was easy.

167

Are you known for having a steady hand?

168

That's a good one.

169

Not listen to Mark.

170

Getting wobbly.

171

Careful.

172

Look at that thing wobble.

173

Let's go.

174

Next.

175

See who goes first?

176

What do you want?

177

Heads.

178

Tails.

179

I want heads.

180

Why?

181

I haven't lost a coin flip today.

182

Now you also may have noticed I haven't lost a single coin flip.

183

And I owe this to the third video I ever uploaded to YouTube back in 2011.

184

Wassup, YouTube!

185

Where I demonstrated how to never lose a coin toss.

186

Basically, instead of a fair flip, where the coin will naturally rotate end over end,

187

for the trick flip, you raise your arm and rotate your wrist 45 degrees in the last second,

188

which sends the coin into more of a wobble,

189

taking on this hourglass -like shape where you'll notice the side that was originally up stays facing up the whole time.

190

So if the person calls heads before the flip make sure you start your trick flip with heads facing down

191

and you'll never lose

192

Whoa next so do I owe you a hundred bucks sure thanks.

193

I don't think I have enough such as life

194

Next everything was going perfectly according to plan

195

and the research was paying off tic -tac -toe I was winning 95 % of the time in a Jenga.

196

I won 85 % of the time Scratch that.

197

That was the wind.

198

82 % of the time.

199

Get out of here.

200

Eventually, I started dominating games I hadn't even prepared for.

201

Not on my watch, Garcia.

202

Next.

203

Three, two, one.

204

Oh, this hurts so bad, Jade.

205

I'm ready.

206

That's crazy.

207

And I literally just started making up strategies on the fly.

208

You want to know my trick?

209

I'm actually looking at the reflection of your eyes.

210

Too late.

211

Got it.

212

Anyone else?

213

Everything seemed to be working, but before I went up against a real gaming master,

214

I wanted to do one last check -in with an old friend, the very man who helped me hack

215

Guess Who, and who was so influential in my life that I made him the subject of my TED Talk.

216

Hello, Mr. Malloy, for watching this.

217

Friend, mentor, Dr. Evil, none other than my high school statistics teacher, Mr. Malloy!

218

Hi!

219

Eric, welcome to Crunch Labs.

220

Goodness.

221

Want a tour?

222

Yes.

223

So I gave this living legend the full

224

Crunch Labs tour he deserved, including infinite sleekies, loud explosions, and of course, a light misting of fart spray.

225

Oh.

226

Which left us with only one more stop.

227

And then this is the room where we shoot the tennis ball cannon.

228

The lights are usually on.

229

I hope so, for shooting the cannon.

230

But there was a twist.

231

Should I be afraid?

232

Actually, yeah.

233

Yes.

234

I'm gonna be honest, Mr. Malloy.

235

I didn't invite you out here today for a tour.

236

This is an ambush.

237

What kind of ambush?

238

A board game ambush.

239

Because 10 years ago, after he statistically solved

240

Guess Who, Mr. Beloy became virtually unbeatable.

241

And using a strategy against him, left us deadlocked in tie after tie after tie.

242

So now, a decade later, I'm not just going for one win.

243

I'm going for a clean sweep six.

244

Behind us are six different board games.

245

It's time for the student to become the teacher.

246

A teacher's proudest moment.

247

Prepare to get your butt kicked.

248

Nice.

249

Clearly, we'd have to work on leveling up his trash talk.

250

For the first game, we have...

251

Connect Four.

252

I've played this a couple of times.

253

To see who goes first, I'm gonna play

254

Rock, Paper, Scissors.

255

Ready?

256

Here we go.

257

Rock, Paper, Scissors, shoot.

258

See what won.

259

Go two out of three.

260

Then beat that one.

261

I go first.

262

All right, here we go.

263

This was the ultimate test to see if my Connect Four strategies were truly as unpredictable as I thought.

264

I had an idea that was going to happen.

265

I have prepared a lot for this moment.

266

Artie defensive.

267

Just how I like it.

268

Which involved creating a pattern that we'd seen over and over in our data.

269

No choice there.

270

And over the course of the game, if you successfully create it, your four will connect.

271

Your move, Mr. Malloy.

272

You forced me into there.

273

you don't teach that in ap statistics do they okay

274

so here's what i did first thing to note is

275

that the center column is the most important

276

and you should try to maximize the number of pieces you put there

277

and that's because every possible four in a row needs at least one piece in

278

that center column it doesn't matter if you win horizontally

279

or diagonally they all pass through the center column one exception is a vertical win

280

but those are pretty rare because they're super easy for your opponent to spot.

281

And for trick two, we noticed that a bunch of wins in our data included this shape, and it looks sort of like a bird's beak.

282

And if you look closely, you can see why this configuration is so unstoppable.

283

Because in the act of blocking your first four in a row, they set you up for a second.

284

Now importantly, this beak shape can be upside down, right side up, point to the left, or to the right.

285

These will all result in the win.

286

And you'll find that once you know what to look for, it's not that hard to create it.

287

So for Connect Four, here's what to remember stack the center column every connect four runs through it

288

and second build that beak shape because their block sets up your win

289

so after my dominant performance at connect four the good news

290

is you have a chance to redeem yourself at battleship

291

so we placed our ships

292

and right out of the gate i was feeling pretty good about my chances

293

i'm feeling generous you can go first oh wow thank you e5 that's a hit whoo

294

that is a terrible start but i wasn't worried because I had a strategy we discovered called checkerboard hunting.

295

Every ship is at least two squares long, so if you imagine a checkerboard pattern on the board,

296

every ship must touch at least one square of the checkerboard pattern.

297

Hunting only on black squares, for example, means you're guaranteed to eventually find all their ships,

298

and yet you've cut the search space from 100 squares to 50.

299

Then once the two -peg ship has sunk, you can stretch the pattern to every third square,

300

since everything left now is at least three pegs long.

301

Now of course, if you make a hit, you should immediately search the neighboring squares, up, down, left, and right,

302

until you discover the orientation and you sink that ship.

303

We even created a simulation, playing over 1 million games, to test the strategy, we discovered random guessing plus neighbor hunting once you get a hit,

304

which is what most people do, will win in an average of 60 turns,

305

whereas our checkerboard strategy plus neighbor hunting drops it down to 50 turns, giving you an average advantage of 10 turns,

306

resulting in an almost certain victory.

307

B2 Miss.

308

What?

309

At least in theory.

310

C4.

311

Miss.

312

A1.

313

Miss.

314

D3.

315

Miss.

316

Really wasted a lot of shots.

317

Mr. Moy's luck was bound to run out.

318

H3.

319

What the heck?

320

Hit.

321

Statistically speaking.

322

E7.

323

Hit.

324

B4.

325

Hit.

326

H9.

327

Hit!

328

You sunk my aircraft carrier.

329

Yikes.

330

All that data for nothing.

331

You're making a pretty pattern.

332

Aw.

333

And while my trick kept me somewhat competitive, You sunk my patrol boat.

334

You sunk my cruiser!

335

Mr. Malloy always seemed one step ahead.

336

G9.

337

You sunk my patrol boat.

338

Ay!

339

How did that happen?

340

You literally hit more than you missed.

341

It turns out Mr. Malloy used my same strategy with one more layer on top.

342

Instead of just hunting from top to bottom in a checkerboard pattern, he was constantly looking at the available squares

343

and aiming his shots in the center because those are the squares that have the highest probability of containing a ship.

344

The extremities are least likely to hold prey.

345

Towards the middle are squares that are more likely to be covered by ships.

346

Basically, imagine aligning the remaining ship at every possible configuration left on the board

347

and adding up the number of times every square was passed through.

348

If you turn those numbers into a heat map, where darker squares are more probable squares, it becomes pretty obvious approximately where you should try next.

349

And then of course, if you sink a ship, a new edge is formed.

350

And if all that sounds too complicated, you basically just shoot towards the middle of the biggest patch of open water,

351

while still just choosing the black checkerboard squares.

352

So if you add this strategy on top like Mr. Maloy did, you will win an average of 45 turns,

353

giving you an average advantage of five turns over my simple checkerboard strategy.

354

So for Battleship, here's what you need to remember.

355

Number one, huntin' checkerboard pattern.

356

You'll find every ship in half the shots.

357

Two, if you hit somethin', hunt the neighbors.

358

Three, when you sink the small ship, stretch your checkerboard to every third square.

359

And finally, aim for the biggest patch of open water, because it has the highest probability of containing a ship.

360

Mr. Malloy?

361

Good game.

362

It's red, because you're a villain.

363

Next game.

364

Game number three.

365

Tic -tac -toe.

366

A classic.

367

According to my data, if I could secure a corner with the first move, my odds of winning improved drastically.

368

Why don't we do this fair?

369

We'll flip to see who goes first.

370

And as fate would have it.

371

All right.

372

Heads.

373

I got incredibly lucky.

374

Ish.

375

And I was just getting started.

376

Want to play again?

377

Absolutely.

378

Heads.

379

Looks like it's tails.

380

What?

381

Tails.

382

Heads.

383

Tails.

384

Four straight, wait a minute.

385

What are the chances of that?

386

One over two to the fourth.

387

He's a stats teacher.

388

Not unusual yet.

389

I would say that's unusual.

390

Remember stats?

391

If something was less than 5%, then we call it unusual.

392

Shoot, I forgot that.

393

All right, then let's make it unusual.

394

Tails.

395

Now that's unusual.

396

And if Mr. Malloy chose to play any square other than the center, no matter what, victory was mine.

397

Yes!

398

Wait a minute.

399

And just like that, the game was over after the first move.

400

Let's go!

401

We're back in it, baby!

402

What's happening here?

403

My redemption arc!

404

With Tic -Tac -Toe, if you start in any corner, you're guaranteed a win if your opponent goes here, here, here, here, here, here, or here.

405

Anywhere but the middle.

406

And if they do go in the middle, you can still win about half the time.

407

The trick is you have to go first.

408

But that's what coin tosses are for.

409

Basic rule is to dominate the corners.

410

Your first three moves must always be in the corners.

411

So for example, if you go here, the closest non -diagonal corner that threatens a win is here.

412

And once they block you, you go in the remaining corner that threatens two wins, setting a trap just like with Kinect 4,

413

where your opponent can't block both and you take home the victory.

414

So another example, if they go here, you go in the non -diagonal corner that threatens a win, and once they block you,

415

you once again set up a trap they can't stop.

416

This even works if they go in the opposite corners, because at that point, either non -diagonal corner will threaten a win.

417

So the only square where you're not guaranteed a victory is if they go in the middle.

418

But even then, if you choose the diagonal corner and they go here, you once again lock in the third corner and take home the victory.

419

And honestly, that ends up working about half the time.

420

So for tic -tac -toe, here's what you need to remember.

421

Number one, go first, which is way easier if you've got a coin lying around, and then pick a corner.

422

Two, pick a second corner that will threaten to win.

423

And three, lay the trap by going in the remaining corner, setting up a double win.

424

It was time to keep this win streak alive.

425

To the next game!

426

The most obvious strategy in Jenga is to poke the blocks until you find a loose block

427

that moves really easily and then remove that one.

428

By the way, the loose blocks in Jenga aren't a bug, that's a feature.

429

I'd heard they'd purposefully manufacture them imprecisely to make gameplay more fun.

430

So Connor kindly volunteered to measure the heights of 540 different Jenga blocks, and when we graphed the data,

431

we found the difference in height between them could be as much as 1mm, or the thickness of a credit card.

432

On top of that, loose pieces regenerate.

433

As you move blocks, the tower's lean moves weight around.

434

So a block that was unmovable three turns ago might easily slide out now.

435

So as the game moves on, make sure you retest everything every turn.

436

All I'm left with is ones that won't wiggle.

437

I got nothing to lose.

438

I never saw that.

439

I've never seen that either.

440

That's wild because before, that one didn't move.

441

Forces change.

442

That means I gotta retest.

443

There are no more that easily wiggle.

444

There's nothing!

445

That is bad.

446

Pin me in a corner, Mr. Malloy.

447

Eventually you get to a point where you run out of pieces that easily slide out,

448

and you're left with blocks that move a little but then get stuck.

449

You're just slowly dragging it.

450

Oh no, it's gonna fall.

451

And from looking at all our data, this stage of the game is what separates the Jenga losers from the Jenga winners,

452

and it comes down to basic physics.

453

Oh, Jenga!

454

If you've ever tried to move something really heavy like a couch, you might have noticed the hardest part is the first shove,

455

but once it gets moving, it slides pretty easily.

456

In other words, it takes more force to start something sliding than to keep it sliding.

457

We call that static friction versus kinetic friction.

458

So the faster you can get your block sliding, the less time the tower is feeling that initial strong nudge.

459

So our third and final trick is if a block gets stuck,

460

giving it a strong quick tap or flick is actually much safer than a slow one.

461

I can't believe that worked.

462

But as it turns out, knowing the science and executing the science are two very different things.

463

No!

464

You did this to me!

465

I had no options left. But how?

466

I try to make it so an even number of choices goes to you.

467

There's only four good moves.

468

And then I have three, two, one, zero good moves.

469

Zero's an even number, so...

470

Wait, zero is an even number?

471

Yeah.

472

Did you teach me that?

473

I definitely taught you that.

474

Basically what he's saying is you should count the number of movable blocks remaining

475

and make sure all the good moves run out on your opponent's turn.

476

So for example, let's say it's your turn and there's four possible moves left in the stack.

477

You'd want to remove this one because that leaves your opponent now with an even number of options left.

478

And if you would have pulled the middle block, that would have left them with an odd number of options and you would have lost.

479

Now I know your trick.

480

New game!

481

Best two out of three.

482

But first, I would need to thermally undisregulate.

483

I'm a little chilly.

484

Just gonna go grab a sweatshirt.

485

Okay.

486

Much better.

487

You all cozy now?

488

Yeah.

489

And halfway through game two, Mr. Malloy had me backed into the very same corner.

490

Mr. Malloy, you've done it again.

491

None of these are wiggly.

492

You leave me no choice but to use my right hand.

493

Now, the rules specifically state you cannot touch these blocks with more than one hand.

494

This uses zero hands.

495

Really hoping that looked cooler.

496

That was almost amazing.

497

Here, you want one?

498

Here you go.

499

Whoa!

500

It was just supposed to roll the clip.

501

The plan was an 800 PSI pneumatic Jenga air cannon that cleanly snipes that impossible centerpiece, leaving the tower perfectly intact.

502

By the way, I am currently looking for the world's greatest editor.

503

We pay really well, plus you get tons of creative freedom.

504

Wow!

505

Not that much creative freedom.

506

So for Jenga, here's what you need to remember.

507

First, test every block and pull the loose ones.

508

2. Retest every turn because loose blocks regenerate.

509

3. If a block gets stuck, break it loose quickly, taking advantage of the lower friction.

510

And finally, count the remaining safe moves.

511

Just make sure on their turn, there are zero safe moves left.

512

I think there's no denying.

513

W for you.

514

Good game.

515

Thanks, Mark.

516

On to number five.

517

Okay.

518

Next up is a classic.

519

Oh, a favorite.

520

Do you know what my childhood memories of Monopoly are?

521

Playing for four hours and then rage quitting it.

522

Okay.

523

On that note, you should know the house rules people usually play by just extend the game unnecessarily.

524

If you play by the actual rules, a two -player

525

Monopoly game lasts a little more than 30 minutes.

526

This is for two reasons.

527

One, there's no free parking jackpot to make everyone flush with cash.

528

And two, as the rules state, if you don't buy a property you land on,

529

the bank immediately auctions it up to the highest bidder on your turn.

530

You are bankrupt.

531

The winners tended to buy everything they landed on.

532

I'm buying this.

533

I'll buy that.

534

I'll buy it.

535

Why not?

536

I'm not going to buy it.

537

Why not?

538

So that was my strategy.

539

Buy it, baby.

540

Kentucky, come to papa.

541

It's available.

542

I buy it.

543

Taking properties off the board, if for nothing else, to prevent my opponent from getting a monopoly.

544

Because if I'm ever strapped for cash, there's a way to leverage those properties for money.

545

Your cash is depleting.

546

I can mortgage these.

547

That would raise me $250.

548

This is where my strategy gets tested.

549

Do you really buy Baltic?

550

Yes, you do.

551

Come to Papa.

552

Turns out my strategy to buy everything wasn't wrong.

553

It was just very incomplete.

554

Nine.

555

What's the rank?

556

16 whole dollars.

557

Keep the change.

558

450. Uh -oh.

559

With three houses, 550.

560

550?

561

As long as I don't land on anything bad, I'm okay.

562

I just can't roll a two or a three.

563

What are the chances I get a two or a three?

564

Three out of 36.

565

That's fast math.

566

That's not unusual.

567

The dice showed zero mercy, officially ending my run and locking down the win for Mr. Malloy.

568

That sure feels unusual.

569

Clearly, he knew something I didn't.

570

All right, teach me all your tricks.

571

The trick is getting three houses is the best return on your investment.

572

Turns out Mr. Malloy had some S -tier monopoly strategies that we totally missed in our research,

573

and it was like I was right back in his classroom.

574

Build the three houses fast.

575

16 whole dollars, please.

576

Because three houses gives the biggest jump in rent for what you spend.

577

550. 550!

578

Additionally, every house you put down is one fewer in the bank's supply, so buying them up keeps your opponents from developing.

579

This is why world championship monopoly games rarely end with hotels on the board.

580

Next, go for the oranges.

581

Jail is the most landed on square, and the oranges sit six, eight, and nine spaces past it right around the most common role.

582

They're also cheaper to build on so you can get to three houses faster.

583

And when it comes to jail, pay to get out early in the game so you can keep grabbing properties,

584

but stay in late to avoid paying rent while still collecting it because that's actually what the rules allow for.

585

And finally, Monopoly is the property trading game.

586

It's right there in the name.

587

So don't be the table bully because it's impossible to win if no one wants to trade with you.

588

So for Monopoly, here's what to remember.

589

One, get to three houses fast.

590

That's where the rent jumps and create a housing shortage.

591

Two, buy orange because thanks to jail, they're the most frequently landed on properties.

592

Three, if you go to jail, get out early in the game, but stay in late in the game.

593

And four, trading is the only way to win.

594

And eventually, no one wants to trade with a bully.

595

I don't think there's much question here.

596

Well done.

597

Final game.

598

So now that Mr. Malloy was ahead, I absolutely needed a win.

599

It all comes down to this.

600

The final game.

601

I was really hoping I'd have more than two wins at this point, but if I know anything, it's how to finish strong.

602

What is this?

603

This is Squirrel Dash.

604

I never heard of it.

605

Well, you're about to.

606

I'll go first since after all this is my backyard.

607

Wait a minute.

608

Is this your squirrel?

609

These are my squirrels.

610

Mousetrap was one of my favorite games as a kid

611

and Squirrel Dash is my new board game inspired by my four favorite backyard squirrels.

612

You roll the dice to help the squirrels traverse my backyard obstacle course, collect the acorns as you go, but watch out.

613

A rat.

614

His fat tail might come along and steal all your nuts, setting off a chain reaction with disastrous consequences.

615

And although Mr. Boy picked up the game quick...

616

Hey, this is probability.

617

This is probability!

618

I still destroyed him.

619

Give me the green.

620

I said, give me the green.

621

At my own game.

622

Wow, that feels good.

623

What's the secret hack to this game?

624

Go figure it out yourself.

625

Unfortunately, that goes for everyone else, too.

626

You're just going to have to figure it out.

627

I see three green and three red.

628

That looks like a tie to me.

629

Once again, we were too evenly matched.

630

But 10 years of anticipation was not going to end in another time.

631

Time for a tiebreaker.

632

It would all come down to this.

633

Six months of grueling in -the -field, hands -on data -gathering analytics had brought me here to the final game.

634

I would have to reach in my back pocket for one final piece of strategy I had saved.

635

Bro, how are you doing this?

636

To dethrone the king himself.

637

So what's the strategy?

638

I hit the button.

639

That's actually true.

640

There's absolutely no strategy here.

641

You just button mash.

642

Yeah!

643

So it would all come down to one last marvel.

644

I had planned for everything.

645

Every hack, every trick, every tactic.

646

But in the end, perhaps after making a mockery of lady luck one too many times, Mr. Beloy had the hungrier Hungry Hippo.

647

which meant for all my years of preparation, I was still being taught by my incredible teacher.

648

Mr. Malloy, you're a legend.

649

Thank you, Mark.

650

I'm still learning a bunch from you.

651

This is what a good teacher looks like.

652

And now you two know how to beat anybody at any of these games, as long as that person isn't Mr. Malloy.

653

Or, I suppose, me or anyone who watched this video.

दोहराने लायक वाक्य

वीडियो के छोटे, पूरे वाक्य जिन्हें आप रोज़ की बातचीत में इस्तेमाल कर सकते हैं:

How'd you do that?
How do I not see that?
Does that mean I won?
Bro, how are you doing this?
Why don't we do this fair?

इस वीडियो का व्याकरण

वक्ता जिन संरचनाओं का सबसे अधिक प्रयोग करता है, वीडियो के असली शब्दों के साथ:

संरचना	वीडियो में
शर्त वाले वाक्य if + उपवाक्य, will/would + क्रिया — शर्त और उसका नतीजा	if you keep repeating this, you'll win · if you play best of five, you'll win
Present perfect have/has + past participle — बीता हुआ काम जिसका असर अभी भी है	I've spent · It's been · haven't lost
Passive voice be + past participle — ज़ोर इस पर कि क्या होता है, न कि कौन करता है	was cracked · was bound · be covered
Relative clauses who / which + उपवाक्य — व्यक्ति या वस्तु के बारे में अतिरिक्त जानकारी	anyone who beats · man who helped · first, which is

ध्यान देने योग्य उच्चारण

वक्ता 105 बार संक्षिप्त रूपों का प्रयोग करता है, जैसे I'm, don't, you're। इन्हें वैसे ही छोटा बोलें जैसा आप सुनते हैं।

“th” की ध्वनियाँ: threaten /ˈθɹɛt.n̩/, gather /ˈɡæðɚ/, mathematics /mæθ(.ə)ˈmæt.ɪks/
“sh” और “zh” की ध्वनियाँ: unusual /ʌnˈjuːʒ(u)əl/, friction /ˈfɹɪkʃən/, ambush /ˈæm.bʊʃ/, configuration /kənˌfɪɡ.əˈɹeɪ̯.ʃən/, trash /tɹæʃ/
लंबे शब्द — बलाघात सही रखें: monopoly /məˈnɑpəli/, unusual /ʌnˈjuːʒ(u)əl/, probability /ˌpɹɑ.bəˈbɪl.ə.ti/, statistically /stəˈtɪs.tɪ.kə.li/, configuration /kənˌfɪɡ.əˈɹeɪ̯.ʃən/

हिंदी भाषियों के लिए मुश्किल ध्वनियाँ:

/v/ और /w/ का फ़र्क़ — /v/ में ऊपर के दाँत निचले होंठ को छूते हैं, /w/ में होंठ गोल होते हैं: squirrel /ˈskwɪ.ɹ(ə)l/, whoa /woʊ/, solve /sɒlv/, whereas /(h)wɛɹˈæz/, discover /dɪˈskʌvə/
/z/ — इसे “ज” (/dʒ/) न बनाएँ: scissors /ˈsɪzəz/, whereas /(h)wɛɹˈæz/, physics /ˈfɪz.ɪks/, expose /ɪkˈspoʊz/
शब्द की शुरुआत में s + व्यंजन — पहले “इ” न जोड़ें: squirrel /ˈskwɪ.ɹ(ə)l/, slide /ˈslaɪ̯d/, statistically /stəˈtɪs.tɪ.kə.li/, stretch /stɹɛt͡ʃ/, stack /stæk/

इस वीडियो से अभ्यास कैसे करें

पहले बिना बोले पूरा वीडियो एक बार सुनें और जो शब्द नहीं आते उन्हें लिख लें।
0.75× गति से शुरू करें, एक-एक वाक्य की शैडोइंग करें, और सहज लगने पर सामान्य गति पर लौटें।
अपनी आवाज़ रिकॉर्ड करें और मूल से तुलना करें, ख़ासकर trick, scissors, opponent जैसे शब्दों पर ध्यान दें।

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?

शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
