Queen sac stalemate was beautiful
0:00 What is there so interesting in Hikaru's left? A window maybe?
and he sacrificed a queeeeeeen!!!! 10:47
I saw it live – what a great game, swinging back and forth, full of tension and drama. Thanks to JL Hammer for entertaining and insightful commentary as well.
I can’t stop cringing when he talks like this dose anyone else agree?
Pushing p on the king side .
I like how he doesn’t call himself a professional chess player
Wait is hikaru retiring? Or did I hear it wrong..?
Hikaru parodying his modern himself regarding the juicers, wooden shield and kebab took me offward!
Good job and thanks for sharing as always!!
Very nice stalemate by wesley
Man just a tip, your brain might process 100 pieces a second, but most of us can't 😅 Would be nice if you tried to move pieces a tiny bit slower for us sometimes 😅😅
Over-nice intro Hikaru always scares the sh*t out of me 😅
Haha can't believe you said it's a shame it was a draw when you were losing also until he blundered with Qd4. Sure it's disappointing but should also be a relief you didn't lose.
Bro just said he "sacced" the queen for 2 rooks, doesn't even know that 2 rooks coordinated are better than a queen
Who knew the highest rated chess player in the American cup would be a twitch streamer♟️🔥
"He plays the cutest move on the board" 😍
Amazing recap, thank you teacher.
great game good luck in tomorrow
Stylish draw by wesley
man he's a tool
10:46 the best "sac the queen" ever, Levi must be proud.
You've changed your talking style, nice adjustment for YouTube audience, but I loved your previous genuine way
Hey Hikaru, I like your shirt where did you buy it from ?
Your thumbnails make me think the video is gonna be interesting and then it's just chess
amazing great job you and wesley
Plz hikaru i love you but stop with this cringe intro
Somehow I understood all of this and none of it at the same time.
8:40 for cats right?
Tomorrow would be quick draw and double draw on rapid after that Wesley sadly get stemrolled in blitz.
@10:48 eric rosen soul enter Hikaru
At 4:41 the daek squared bishop in now light squared
The more u know
this is so interesting
what is the meaning behind the word "bashin" at 2:29
I am imagining how it could be if youtube was in previous milenium, and for example Karpov vs Korchnoi would do recaps 😀
That stalemate is nuts
I’m considering liquidating the Hans Fan Club and starting the official Hikaru Fan Club
Really good game. I don’t usually enjoy watching classical chess that much because it’s so slow and seemingly ends in a draw 9 times out of 10. Despite this one being a draw, the variations were fascinating, and your commentary team on Twitch were hilarious. Hammer was as excited as any football fan watching their favourite team. Anyway… well done all round.
Amazing complications that you and Wesley had to navigate through in this game and a pretty unique stalemate finish
22:44 the cutest move on the board🤣
We went batshit crazy when hammer predicted h4
5:22 🅿️
Wesley and Hikaru has had more ties than my dad, when he worked in the bank.
Here we are at Game 500 of move 12 of perfect opening that doesn’t exist and now we see my opponent has hung 7 points of material and I have to find a plan
Love the bailout reference! And you're correct, there should be no bailouts, especially from our government!
Hey Hikaru, was wondering if you would be able to do one of your openings videos on the Sicilian Defense. It's the toughest opening for me to understand. Love your videos too, thank you for providing us with your content.
I love how he waits to get Into character in the beginning lol
What a way to draw! That's just beautiful
It’s hard for me to imagine hikaru actually spending several minuets on a move, let alone 10 or 20
Calling the bishop an awp is so funny
Me:im not scared of any jumpscare
Also me playing this in 2 second:💀
