Anyone can beat magnus Carlsen its just one in 100 Google by random moves win
4:18 if hikaru played re7 then rf7, rxf7, then queen takes and if he finds a way to reroute the bishop then mate
At 45-52 min I slowed down the video to .50 and took screen shots cuz I couldn’t keep up with what ass was happening.... I do this a lot being a new player when hikaru plays a few moves ahead. Lol
me: struggling to think multiple moves ahead mid game Hikaru: replayed his previous game in his head for a forced win while playing his current game against GM Wesley
The premium sense technologically interfere because flare extremely grin among a general gentle comb. prickly, second christmas
Wow
Is for me?
58:00 me playing chess
Hikaru: can i play something i dont believe in Me: sacrifices pieces without plan in mind just hoping it would work 😂😂😂
wesley should've let his time run out and it would've been a draw
does someone has the end-score?
The rarest checkmate, the knight king checkmate
Don’t think just move, I didn’t know I played like a gm
isnt the best move 4:17 knight e2?
Bishop d3 takes
1:02:54 we're both terrible chess players. So honest
like it, thats what you do only wins coz of blunder.. this s da reason you hardly win in rapid and classical chess..
There is always a reason why Naka lost his game, and he must tell us every time.
People when Wesley Blunders: 🤯
Perfect as always! Hikaru is my favorite elite GM :)
Hikaru plays, talks, and reads comments in 3 minutes game against a super-GM. I think Wesley just plays.
@SuperGGLOL wesley be chillin with his cat
Wesley in the dark focusing very hard while hikaru chilling on twitch talking and complaining to chat about how bad he’s playing ,
Lol the king and knight just get checkmate because the opponent has a pawn
If wesley had let his time run out instead of making a move it would have been a draw because of insufficient material
If this about the last game,, that would only happen if hikaru had run out of on time
1:27:41 , queen f1 checkmate?
The bishop...dude, the bishop.
18:05 They did my man Anish dirty
i'm not good so much but 3:54 he2 is winning?
How does he checkmate with only a king and knight! That’s ridiculous.
You need at least the opponent have a pawn, only king and knight you couldnt make it. "That's ridiculous" great quote!
Achievement unlocked: Rare mate
Worst but best games I've seen 🤣
Uhh this music is nice. Does he have some titles too maybe ?
What is the name of the attack Hikaru uses against Sicilian? I’ve never seen it before
"first time in my life today" 1:19:55 (c) Nakamura
why did Wesley resign in that position at 8:27?
Hikaru was the one who resigned
uwu
The lesson here is that mentality is so important.
Hikaru has king crimson or somethig that can let him see the future
if wesley timed himself out would he have gotten a draw
Thanks to the digital age, we are able to see what the people at the very top do and think and say. Otherwise they used to be just names you read on a newspaper and could only wonder what they are like.
Foreshadowing of Skilling 😜
İ need some more brain
4:15 why didnt hikaru play Ne2 keep the extra piece?
@darthvaderalex pro tip: I never asked you
Pro tip: If you have questions on a game you can put the position into stockfish and analyse yourself instead of asking and never getting an answer
Because I said so
Someone tell Hikaru that a minor positional mistake in a 3+0 game is not a “horrible blunder” hahahahaha
The thumbail made me click
Jesus Christ loves you. God is love
“Ok let’s play slow. This is still 3|0” Then there’s Me, only able to win in 15|10
Pog hikaru
Hikaru always saying in every blitz game: i forgot it is 3 0 not 3 1 thats why i lose. I mean he literally just plays 3 0 and has always the same excuse. It is sadly a lil bit annoying no matter how much i am a fan of him
I have seen that mate in Anish bullet stream but due to time out , the game got to draw (insufficient Material) So ideally Wesley should have not moved his piece and after the time goes out . It will be considered as Draw (Due to insufficient Material)
2:16 I never understood this "I quess I can premove". Like recapturing a piece or pawn is always a "safe" premove cuz u already know you are gonna take back the piece if opponent captures. Edit. Also if opponent didnt capture it u basically didnt premove anything, there is no risk premoving recapture.
there is a risk, maybe u didnt see that u cant really retake
Thumbnail game is on a different level
i feel very proud for spotting knight f3 on the last game, and i knew it wasnt lost but a bad endgame
Really impressed by both players !
Man every time Naka loses he´s like man the quality of the song or this game is just not colourful enough - frankly terrible.
The truth hurts.
Yes...yes.. fine how many times will you say "It's definitely winning here"?!!
I find it interesting how xqc with his „negative talent in live“ has influenced chess vocabulary so much.
@Roger McCurdy juicer, wooden shield, bing bang pow. He was part of the immortal throbbing game. What else can you expect from a single man?
just out of curiosity what has xqc affected in chess vocab
A question for hikaru why didn't you listen to classical ?!
So what if wesly doesn’t play a move and flags, isn’t that a draw due to insufficient materials?
I was thinking same
1:02:39 is the moment
@XD you're welcome, king.
Thanks
love hikaru when his instincts are soooo right! great video.
Ladies and gentlemen... 1:23:52
Agreed
I've never seen Hikaru play so hesitantly in 3-0... I get that So is great, but Hikaru should always have the edge in speed chess and he didn't play like it. I guess everybody has a bad day.
how is white in check mate at the start? Don't get it
I think the editor deserves a raise for that thumbnail
nice comeback!
Hikaru pog
It wasn't Hikaru's day it seems. Still good content, I really like it... Also keep on the thumbnails :D
@Pero Zmiric He kept making mistakes. He usually doesn't do that many :S Also he's normally faster
He crushed wesley and it wasnt his day??
Why was it checkmate, Wesley could have moved Kh7 and would be perpetual check but no mate... I don't get it.
The knight on f8 covers the h7 square so the white king is stalemated and the only move is to push the pawn after which Ng6# is checkmate.
I'm confused, Hikaru took his own pieces (0:47 & 2:50) twice? You can do that?
@Francesco Parenzan OH I see it now, thanks for the clarification!
he is premoving two moves, he captures the knight that took the bishop
Anyone else noticed the board in the thumbnail is set up wrong?
'Im playing like Anish now, I can't win a game' *oof*
What am i doing?I gotcha move!Why am i thinking?O he got that move.Missed that completely.And finally especially in blitz after making a move sees that is a terrible blunder. Thats the thought process of every chess player(atleast me)while playing chess😂
That thumbnail looks like a Arabic meme
That thumbnail though... Brought to you by thumbnail gang xD
If you like this comment your parent will not live a hundred years
Would be awesome if you added your own commentary to a game match with Carlsen explaining the thought process
1:02:25 like duggiedrop commented gave me a new chess game mode idea. You saw Hikaru tried to move knight 4 squards instead 3 squares. Idea: Normal chess with a superpower move!; for example the Knight can jump 1 square further. U can only use the abbility once during chess and every piece gets his superpower abbility.
Nice music on the background 🤘
Hikaru “ I would’ve won” Nakamura
thats a cursed thumbnail
"Typical, I'm playing like Anish now. I can't win a game" SAVAGE xD (time: 18:05)
@Saif Mahmud Okay.
@AminAmPentaNe I guess someone has been bullied so much in life they find it normal. Maybe youre mistaking masochism with humor lmao
@The Poison Kid Haha, Yep. Peace onto you✌️
@AminAmPentaNe Or maybe my humour is different from yours and I do not care about my e-penis, but rather people around me. Anyway, it's not getting anywhere. You do you, and I do whatever floats my boat. Have a good one Amin.
@The Poison Kid Mm.. may be you lack humor. And haven't caught up with the current world.
Hikaru: literally makes THE most insane checkmate you can do Also Hikaru: i dont have a punchline but he just didnt give a shit
Can Someone tell me the name of the music that he is listening to
Mr Nakamura. Don't loose 30s per game telling and thinking you are loosing time^^
Hikaru man i admire u soo so much the why u play and the good whys of trapping is so thrilling but man please rock&roll is not the kind of music u put with chess its very annoying 💔
NO
Hikaru saying "For a little human like me"😂
btw Wasley could let himself flag and get the draw (cause in chess com if one player has a knight and nothing else then its consider draw (cause knight and king cant mate by themselves)) so its really nice to see that he let the mate happen
@Josef Holba yeah like the alireza vs carlsen controversy
No it isn't always like this....if your opponent can somehow by any order of moves make a checkmate, then if you flag yourself, you lose...and as you've seen yourself, Hikaru mated him, so if So flagged himself, he would lose.
After bishop f3 can you retreat your knight from danger and block the bishop with knight e2?
Who is he talking to?
So knight f4 is attractive and g5 is talking dirty
24:07 hahahahhhahhaa
I loved this! Now this is more like a fight unlike the lopsided win of Nakamura in their last game .Hahaha It's also somewhat a good feeling to see that even GM's blunder themselves into a scholar's mate. These two are two of the super beasts of speed chess with Magnus, currently reigning as the king of super beasts. Will his reign continue? That is the question. Can't wait to see the SCC finals!
Yeah I think Hikaru and Wesley are #2 and #3 respectively.
Finally some music in the background. 🤘🏻
Wasn't his Bishop hanging at 7:12 or am I missing something?
Pro tip: ask stockfish
I think you are right. At least 2 moves later he should have taken the bishop
Hikaru hands down is my favorite chess player. Never had one. But he's the first!
Try Alexandra botez 😁
Lmaooooo Love the thumbnail!
First time in my life today. First time in my life today.
1:02:29 ish for the mate in question
57:30 the game starts
thx
0:00 Wesley could have made a draw if there was not enough time! Because Hikaru only has a knight
Yeah no shit that’s why it’s called a blunder
wew, pro
Hikaru “wouldacouldashoulda” Nakamura
