An arbiter who penalizes players for maneuvering their knights around with no good reason whatsoever sounds like he'd be a major threat to Anna Cramling's opening repertoire.

FIDE continues to behave like a mafia organization, but this is not surprising since it is just a cover for a real one
I think Levon didnt help in the boom of chess because his wife died in that year
the fact that player need to pay 500 euro to make an appeal is incredible
There is only 1 solution, I need to see the knights dance into the Berlin draw!
@6:23 I don't agree I think the best way is to award no points. A no contest. Because what if a player(player 1) who only needs a draw to win a tournament was to play someone(player 2) is capable of beating them(player 1) and they decided to do this tomfoolery.
It wouldn't be a fair result. 1 of them would have taken a place from someone who deserved it if the result was going to be a decisive one had they actually played.
700 euros is like half a shirt for firouzja
Another day, another chess drama. I LOVE IT
WHEN ARE THE TOP 200 PLAYERS GOING TO STICK TOGETHER AND TAKE A STANCE BY REFUSING TO PLAY FIDE TOURNAMENTS?
SURE IT WILL HURT THEM FINANCIALLY IN THE SHORT TERM, BUT SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE! 50 YEARS OF FIDE CRAP IS ENOUGH!
0.04% is not 0%.
โyou either die a hero, or you live long enough to become the villain.โ
Hikaru says: hi
Kramnik: INTERESTING
Can you lose the title GM?
Lounge wars. Magnus victorious.
nothing like watching chess drama at 5am
5th Comment here! Funny and a bit of a different video than Hikaru usually does… but always still fun to watch …
I love how hikaru can make everything interesting
Nice way doing draw
Thank you Kramnik and Nepo giving Hikaru free content, so nice of them to keep throwing money his way!
Very interesting…
ATM he is getting content and creating something out of thing and i am here for it
Hi hikaru i am first can you give some tips get to 1000 elo i am 308 elo now
Iam doing knight dances to preserve his prep to get hat-trick of Candidates wins!๐ฅ
2nd comment but want to get pin
First, Iโm first!
Edit: Also first liker.
EAโ=1+10(2800โ2000)/4001โโ0.0026
This means a 2000 FIDE player has approximately a 0.26% chance of beating a 2800 FIDE player. ID EST, the 2000 "should" win once every 400 games and draw maybe once every hundred games. So it's not thaaat crazy, just quite rare.
I would say the odds of getting a cheater online as a top player are like 1/5, sadge. Such a draw SHOULD be intensely scrutinized for cheating if it occurs online. But OTB? Idk ask that American with the crazy hair.
Interestingly, the Elo system HAS NO DIRECT FUNCTION FOR CALCULATING DRAWS. This has long been a controversial flaw of its nature with respect to the evaluation of high-level chess.
For a draw, FIDE simply compute (Chance Loss + Chance Win)/2. With some extra steps under certain conditions, but that's basically it.
Magnus would not have agreed to a quick draw in his final game if the Dubov-Nepo game had not been rewarded a 0-0 score. He only did that because he knew it secured a tourny victory.Therefore, assuming Dubov would have had tiebreaks with Magnus is wrong, but possible.
How someone disagrees with what Aronian tweeted is beyond me. Hikaru starts going on about "quick" draws when it clearly said "fixed" draws in the tweet.
FIDE is corrupted
Well geesh…almost seems like all this could have been avoided had Nepo and Dubov played their game. They both obviously didnt care enough to want to win.
The elo system is a solid math formula that hasn't faultered over the whole century that its been used. The only difference in the past 5-10 years is the advent of smaller and more powerful chess engines. What if there are OTB cheating methods that no one has figured out yet? Imagine a home-baked engine with a 2900 elo that's controlled by morse code. It would beat Magnus every time, but wouldnt be as obvious as stockfish. You could also fit a device like that in the heel of a dress shoe and control it with your toe. To avoid RF scanners you would simply turn the device on after being scanned. I won't be surprised if someone gets caught with this type of contraption in the next 5 years…
27:42 Draw $h-$hows are the opposite of 'exciting'. And that's what we've always been thinking, Chri$ ๐
Hikaru, you said you would bet money they wouldn't get punished for making draw. Do I just send you my paypal right now to receive my money or how are we going to deal with this?
Make draws 0.4 and we wont see agreed draws ever again. People will play more risky and try to win, because a win and a lose will outscore 2 draws.
Everyone keeps saying there would have been a tie break but magnus agreed to an early draw in his last game as he only needed a draw to win. There's no way to know if he would have drawn or won if he needed the win so it's really all irrelevant
0.75 for black for a draw 0.25 for white for a draw. Punishes white for not winning by the same amount of point differential as a loss is to a draw and a draw is to a win. White still gets points for not losing, but it means you play to win.
0.04% is NOT impossible. It is improbable. It is 1 in 2500. If a person plays 2500 games, a result like this is more likely than not to happen. This is the same thinking trap that caught Kramnik out last month. Extremely unlikely events DO occur and almost certainly WILL occur given enough trials; and assuming statistical likelihood is the only factor in play.
Ian Nepo is a LOSER,, OH it's true,, it's damn true.
The only thing I don't agree with is where he basically said it's ok to have short draws in TT just because the prize money isn't that big. I think Hikaru got overdefensive about Levon's comments here to the point of giving a lame excuse and then attacking Levon personally with the words "Lev has basically had done nothing for chess during the pandemic" without even knowing that his wife died in 2020. Also, Levon didn't completely stop playing chess during the pandemic right? Wtf is he saying "had done nothing for chess"? Is he saying that you can only contribute to chess by streaming and posting youtube videos? LOL
Nepo riding the knight never before ๐
As a relatively newcomer to the chess world, FIDE sounds like the FIFA of chess
Why the faux uprightness from Fide about draws? It is absurd that draws can be arranged but must appear respectable, even if we all know the match is a prearranged draw; if respectable-looking draws are necessary, then Fide should publish a list of agreed-upon, formulaic, "respctable" ways to draw. Otherwise, Fide looks petty and precious by punishing one way of drawing over another.
HIKARU IS THE REAL GOAT IN CHESS

Wtf is wrong with this people and dress code? Do you go to any hospital and see the staf with shorts, or whatever no hospital dress code clothes on? Do you go to somebody funeral using whatever makes you feel good? Do you to to some marriage cerimony like that as well? Dress like the ocasion, is not because (and I work home office in a company that does not have dress code) most of the chess players became remote players that they can ignore the codes when they seem fit. While somehow I find silly to have a dresscode for chess it should not be ignored just because you don't want it (or you'll see someone with an expensive 100k jacket vs a person with a tshirt feeling bad because he/she can't afford to dress on that level, you can swap this example to shoes/w/e).
If onlh they gave draw only 0.2 points. It will change drastically. They will push for a win instead of a draw.
During my career, I often went out of my way to wear a shirt and tie as well as a jacket. I felt that if I dressed well I would play better. More professional. Sloppy dress, sloppy play.
I did influence a few of my fellow players, who began to dress more sharply. The tournaments looked better for sure.
"Let he who hasn't made a quick draw cast stones first."
-Pineapple-shirt-guy 2024
I have never made a quick draw – Casting my stone; stop making prearranged draws. Noone wants to see it.
6:15 – You can't say that there would've been a tie break with certainty. Dubov would've had different match ups as a result the following day, the pressure of being tied for first would've possibly been different, and magnus wouldn't have settled and made different moves probably. So no, it's not an automatic -far from it.
