All of these Super GMs know that if they were to run against the boss in a world championship match they'd lose. Fabiano hikaru ding nepo etc. Magnus could probably go 8-10 straight if he wanted to.
Kramnik: "Time for the procedure"
Ding might not be motivated, saving strength for the wc game. Why burn yourself out now? That would be really stupid.
When Hikaru, MVL and Shakriyar wins it always makes me happier than when the rest of the guys win. And Vishy and Levon. And Begim… Kosteniuk of course. Polgar. Oh well, great upload thx!!
Congrats Nakamura!!
But very sorry for Rensch destroying the content…
Hikaru Sleeping Schedule > World Championship Crown
danny: results speak for themselves x
hans: chess speaks for itself!!
if ding retires, then it would be ideal for magnus to play gukesh. magnus did say that he would have played the championship if alireza had won that candidates instead of nepo. seems to mean he wanted to prove himself against the next generation. gukesh fits that criteria. ik he didnt play in the candidates, but i think he would be the ideal person to fill in for ding in the event that he retires.
Look at Naka's smile … Hmmm…Magnus..what say ye?
Im confused…did anyone else hear two instances of audio editing out things that hikaru said? Towards the end i wonder if they edited out the planned location for WC location that isnt announced or something yet??? Can someone shine a light for me?
Hikaru at 2800? Must be a glitch in the matrix, but hey, we'll take it !
A living chess engine. Incredible.
great interview
i think super Gm should be at 2800 not 2700 elo.
blud doesn't care, he disrespects and moves on
Congrats Hikaru. We love you!
love how when Anna said maybe he should become a streamer as a joke hikaru made sure ding wouldnt get disrespected man is having a tough time
Hikaru has bags of personality compared to the other players.
Great job Hikaru breaking the 2800 barrier. Must be good i am still struggling to break 800.
He was already 2800 before
Hikaru predicted the games so nonchalantly while also calling that the engine probably thinks the positions are equal
I love the Hikaru late career comeback. I think one reason it's so refreshing is because it means any player could potentially make a deep run in their 30s, which historically hasn't been the case. I'm here for the streamer Hakaru that wins by telling himself chess isn't super important and lowering the pressure he places on himself. Let's go Naka
David spoke very less and his facial expressions were very monotone. He does NOT like Hikaru lol
How long ago was it?
PUSH THE PEE HE TOLD THEM TO THEIR FACES HAHAHAHA TOP KEKE MY MAN
“Time for the procedure. Interesting “
love you nakamura!!
Congratulations! You're only getting better as you get older!
Hikaru is smart guy 🎉
How can anyone think that Hikaru Is cheating when he's rattling these moves off during commentary on random games off the top of his head. It's astonishing to watch and even with the benefit of time I can barely keep up with what he's saying let alone analysis behind it
Sorry i dont no her name but the woman who made the ill paced joke at a bad time rearly needs to learn how to read a room, or just replace her with anna it would defo liven up these talks
I know nobody wants to talk about this but I wonder if the amount of pressure of representing China has something to do with Ding. He definitely wouldn't be able to talk about it if that was the case
Meanwhile Magnus being 3500+
Best chess era and best foothball era….
Congrats Hikaru bro
Hikaru's ability to instantly analyze a game always impresses me
"When I did it before I wasn't a full time streamer so clearly this is more impressive." – Naka
I think Ding is suffering the stress of living under a brutal dictatorship.
18:40 Thank you Hikaru for not letting her slide in her cheap joke….
I really like Anna and used to watch her chess videos. I wish she hadn't make that streamer joke about Ding. It reminds me of the 2000s when every late night host made jokes about Britney Spears and only Craig Ferguson said we could all have more compassion.
I think Ding will defend his title. China takes any sport event too serious. Maybe that's Dings problem. The preasure government put on him to win that title again. But I think we will see different Ding Liren on that match. I hope we will.
Danny is a very bad commentator
Hikaru loves to hear himself talk man… And man he choked so hard against Dingy
I love Hikaru's compassion towards Ding
hikaru being the one to reach 2900 would be hilarious
Get yourself together. Win the next candidates and play Gukesh
'
🤢
"We'd love to get your thots…"
Andrew Tate: "Sure… yeah."
every two or three sentences he sayes have to hit magnus somehow otherwise he just chooses another line
Compelling chess, all that's missing is Hikaru laughing hysterically while roasting someone.
