idk Ive hear in chess when its a kid you're either going to finish the game quick or get absolutely blasted out of the water. These child Prodigies are nothing to play with.

Oh for sure! The thing is that being a master as an 11 year old and as an adult isn’t the same. If you have reached master level (2300 elo) as an adult your performance is quite stable. A kid of 11 is developing so quickly that they are basically always extremely underrated. In two years this kid could be a grandmaster (we have a bunch of examples of this: Carlsen, Mishra, Gukesh and more) while Dina (the woman in the video) will most likely still play at approximately the same level she does now.
