In live commentary the woman GM said he would definitely find that move as there were no other options.

​​@CeltaVigo1916 I think that was her comment on Rd1 not Kf8

@@sergeantslowpoke1550 You're right, sorry my bad!

@@CeltaVigo1916Judit is actually also a GM not just WGM with a peak rating over 2700. She's a beast!

@@CeltaVigo1916 The woman GM? She is Judit Polgar, read up about her. She has slayed all your top male chess heroes from her era.

It has both the bitterness in losing, happiness in winning, and boredom in drawing that someone who hasnt played this game will never be able to replicate.

This joke never get old 😂

lol😂😂😂

He’s getting ready to check himself into an insane asylum.😂

"We do the procedure!"

What's the context behind the Kramnik memes rn?

I think he'll draw with nepo and win against gukesh. Fabi will win both of his next two games to get both of them tied and then lose again to hikaru in the tie breaker.

​@@stevensko9153time to go out and meet some people brother

@@stevensko9153 I think Nepo will blunder vs. Hikaru pressure and then the tournament is over. And then Hikaru beats Ding and is finally crowned WORLD CHAMPION! And then Magnus decides to come out of WC retirement and challenge Hikaru for the throne since the games will actually be interesting! A man can dream of course....

@@SPQR_14 i think he will beat nepo, but lose against guki and guki wins both but will lose against ding

​@@sagarkulkarni2590It will be hard for him to defeat hikaru with black .

You forgot the hardest part, coming back mentally after a brutal loss

Levy does an analysis of every game every day and Hikaru only analyzes his own game

I mean his analyses are never really in depth even compared to Nakamura's first look at his game. @griffinseidel1240

HE SACCED THE ROOOOOOOOK!!!!!!!!!!!

​​@@griffinseidel1240His analysis is very surface level. Probably he just watches the games live and looks at a couple engine lines before making the video

​@@sam2725Well it's easier analyzing your own games and Levy has to start recording right as the games end and upload instantly and if he were to analyze deeply it would be an over 1h video and nobody would watch it

😊

gg why not

You actually believe this fast bastard

a lot of engine moves are not understable by humans

Timestamp?

Wasn't he in the 3rd place in the titled tuesday, I'm a little confused Sorry

@deveshgarg7974 yes in 1 out of the 2 events. There is an early and late event

@@gwilfl1 ah ok thanks

goat = greatest of all time. Hikaru is not the greatest of all time.

​@@pbrynild for fans he can be, even if he is not objectively

He did that in his other two recent wins as well.

I was so nervous when he blundered, I thought I was gonna die

surreal dude

@@henrqueandersen9591 it's kind of funny though because everyone knows the world championship is for number two in the world not number one so it's basically meaningless. Fabi and hikaru are already two and three in rating.

I stepped away from the game when Firouzja had like 16min for 16 moves thinking Hikaru had it in the bag. Next time I looked they just made move 40 and it was even. Next time I looked the game was over and Hikaru had won. It was a wild ride not having the game up the whole time.

levy is that you?

😂😂😂exactly

True 😂

Because you want gukesh to loose? Nah nah.. Gukesh got this.. I'm happy if either hikaru, gukesh Or fabi goes through.. But pls no nepo😣

I mean.. U not wrong XD

Always have been 😎

Bet it's a snoozefest

Ian gonna play for draw.

And he might get it.

​@@lalit8895Ian cannot play for the draw, because he needs a win. Next and last two games are huge and he is 3 ways tied in 1st place. If he draws against Hikaru, there might be chance Gukesh wins both his next games or chance he loses against Fabiano as he plays black pieces. So for Ian it is crucial to win against Hikaru

@@takibaysultan Yeah, if Ian draws against Hikaru with white, he *needs* to win against Fabiano with black. But Fabiano really doesn't lose often with white. Let's say he gets that dub anyway. If Gukesh beats Alireza and draws Hikaru with black, it's tiebreakers between Gukesh and Nepo (Nepo probably wins) But if Gukesh beats Alireza *and* Hikaru, then Gukesh simply wins. If Hikaru beats Gukesh? Tiebreakers Nepo-Hikaru. If Nepo draws both Hikaru and Fabiano? He's out if Gukesh beats Alireza and draws Hikaru, he's out if Gukesh draws Alireza and beats Hikaru, he's out if Hikaru beats Gukesh. If he draws both those games, his only path to winning is tiebreakers (Alireza beats Gukesh, Gukesh doesn't lose to Hikaru.) The single most important game Ian has left is the game against Hikaru. It's the one he has a chance of winning, and without it, getting first place is a long shot. Edited a typo

Naka the true troll

Yeah we are constantly reprimanded for playing these moves but when you become super gm you play it then own it then win the game…

There is an inverse relationship between "garbage" openings and "studied" openings.

It was Alireza who played the French. Lol.

Garbage for Black... the entire french is garbage for black, I just can't stomach blocking in that bishop

@@milankotevski1663 But exchange French is the decision made by white with exd5

@@drakebilowski7557 1.e4 e6. That is the French opening. Btw, the guy I replied to has deleted their comment, so there's no point in debating.

He is obviously doing it for the money and sponsors.

Wrong

@@LahoreGraphicsAcademy Hes got 50 mill already. He doesnt have to care about any sponsors anymore. Hes stacked for the rest of his life anyway

2 suuuper tough matchups against Ian and Gukesh. But fortunately it means Hikaru gets to control his own destiny. Getting a win against either one of them prob seals the tournament victory for Hikaru. Hopefully he plays ruthlessly with the white pieces against Gukesh

​@@Bryaaammnnn179Nah he needs it to go to tiebreaks

@@rudolphschmidt313 You’re most likely correct cause neither Fabi nor Ian will be playing for a draw. So high chances that one of them ends with 9 points today. But not guaranteed. It wouldn’t shock me if they end up in a drawn position even though it would end both of their tournaments

No you won't.

​@@maxscherzer9521💀

@@maxscherzer9521 I think he can after he quits chess and retires.

Shit, can u shut up and let me convince him to win, and after this Idc if she becomes a wh*re

Tomorrow there is a break, so u need to wait 2 days

He was closer in the last candidates 😂

Last year he only needed a draw in the last game, but he lost.

I don’t see Nepo loosing to Hikaru anytime soon.

@@its_maalikI think it’s very possible with the run Hikaru is on. He has the most confidence coming into this match. Although I would still bet on draw.

Hikaru is with the black pieces.. So it's perfectly fine for hikaru to draw

The chance of Nepo, Gukesh, and Caruana all losing next round has got to be minuscule

I think Hikaru is gonna play for a draw, there's no need to push with black to potentially loose the game and the tournament with it. Hikaru also needs to keep an eye on gukesh who is unlikely to win against alireza. Yes alireza has had a bad tournament but he's got the white pieces after all. Trying to overpush is just too much of a risk for gukesh. So I expect 2 draws out of those two games. I also don't think nepo is gonna push too much with the white peices because the same risk of loosing the game and the whole tournament with it aplies to him as well. It wouldn't make much sense for any party to risk everything. The only one who is gonna go all out is caruana.

I think he really does deserve it the most

Vidit? 😅
