The Queen's Gambit reaches its stride as Beth continues her dominance in the world of chess across several cities beating out Master and Grandmaster players on her way to the U.S. Open in Las Vegas. This episode spans 3 years, a plethora of tournaments, and an epic conclusion with a head-to-head match with Benny. The question is how realistic is all of this dominance, what about the chess play, and the important question of how exactly Beth and her mom flew from Kentucky to Houston on a National Flight....
