The thing with Hikaru is simply that he is a personality, and a truly interesting player. I think that chess could be such a fantastically interesting thing if more players had a channel/platform which they could stand on. Hans, Hikaru, Magnus, Levi, etc. Not that chess alone isn't already fantastic, of course...

About the betterhelp sponsorship: I'm not trying to get on your ass, Levy, but a competitive pokémon youtuber that I follow called Freezai recently got into some hot waters for taking a betterhelp sponsorship. I didn't even know about this drama until I saw a comunity post with an apology on his channel. I fully believe you were not aware of this when taking this sponsor and that you also have some contractual obligations you have to abide by. I wish you well no matter what stance you take on this.

27:46 I think Pragg is mathematically eliminated no? He has 6 points and can reach a maximum of 8 points, while Gukesh, Hikaru and Nepo have 7.5 points. Hikaru will play against both Gukesh and Nepo, and a decisive game between Hikaru and Gukesh/Nepo means one of those 3 players would reach 8.5 points. The other alternative is Hikaru drawing both games, and in that scenerio Hikaru would reach 8.5 points anyway. Hikaru playing against both of the other co-leaders means Pragg is mathematically eliminated.

@HarshRaj-px9se 13 днів тому
@@07LightlessYou are right because no matter what One of the three will get 8.5 anyhow. While Fabi is mathematically still there, he is likely not going to win. Other players are not going to clear the way for him. Right now, IMO Gukesh has the highest chances among the three, since he is against Ali who is not focused these days, especially the day after he defeated Gukesh. If Gukesh can convert that into a win he will likely win the tournament. Since Nepo is against Fabi and Hikaru while Hikaru is against Nepo and Gukesh.

What an exciting set of tournaments! I'm enjoying these recaps thoroughly. Really glad you're showing all the games and not skipping relatively uneventful draws (though there hasn't been that many of those really). So glad both the open and women's is being held at the same time. And both are putting on a great show! Is it possible that both could end in ties for first? How would they decide? Is there a fast format playoff procedure, or is it determined by some formula or who beat who earlier, etc?

Chess is a brutal game, one could lose a completely winning game because of a single move and what makes its impossibly difficult here is the format of Candidates. These players have been constantly playing chess matches for 6 hours straight every day and are still sitting at their peak somehow! While these players are doing amazing handling the pressure I believe it’s high time to bring some changes to the tournament

Levy, we have reached that point where I log into FIDE Website to check the pairings and then wait for you to upload the recap to see what happened in these matches! Massive respect my man! if you're still in Toronto, I hope I'll run into you around the harborfront on the weekend :D

Hey good explanation bro! After a long time I clicked on levy's video and realized this was the fun I was missing - liked the fast pace of the moves.

4:32 Hikaru said he's out of prep once Alireza played b6, so giving up the pawn was not from prep.

This candidates ending is getting about as tense as it possibly can. 3 players tied at 7.5 and Fabi still in the running at 7 is wild. Can't wait!

Levy, just to point out, Hikaru did think about the Qd7 before the Nxe1 line. He mentioned in his recap and postgame interview about it. That's why he spent a lot of time for Rxf5.

Hikaru did think beyond that😂he saw queen C2 which is why he spent a lot of time calculating the line.
