46:03 Armageddon do or die, there is no place to hide!
Hikaru has this aura of the uber-efficient kid who was always good at school and sports without even seeming to try much.
Thatβs awesome, Hikaru! Congratulations!
I hope the bananas were delicious haha
congrats, great content
Who likes these cringe videos I wanna see live chess lol this is so stupid and boring
Well Mr. Hikaru, I think just a chess gm doesn't really fit your description. I think you r a chess player and an enternainer. You took many risk in your game just because it can get you the views. You r an absolute chess streamer
45:51 Nakamura tate
Good job my man,I could not see it live because of internet issue due to glazed frost ( Montreal) But I was so glad you won. Nice job
amazing day! well done! congrats!
If you're only getting 30,000 bananas for $30,000, you need to find a new banana shop.
I really hope I can be this good at something when I retire
34:00 — Hikaru always Invites the King's Indian ! I heard from Gothamchess that back in 2015 Hikaru knew the King's Indian better than it knew itself!
Love the recaps!
Itβs easy to forget how close Hikaru was to coming 2nd in the candidates – if it were him playing Nepomniatchi we would already be calling him 2nd best in the world
You da man

It indeed is annoying to think you played well, got the win, and then, analyzing the finishing moves, realizing better moves to finish were missed. SO annoying! Imagine how annoying it is to realize you lost to Hikaru when you could have won. He does that to nearly everyone st some point, the tricky bast…. err, nvm. π
Well played, Hikaru, congrats!
How is it possible that Magnus AND Hikaru were in a LOSERS bracket? I call shenanigans.
30,000 bananas π
Bro youvw been on that shit recently what a time to be alive
54:27 30,000 bananas??
Waiting for hikaru world Champion
I thought I was watching this on fast-forward but it turns out the fault isn't with my player but my slow brain. Anybody feel the same way watching this recaps?
Right after an intense match, he goes on to make a 54 min analysis video and uploads in couple hours after the match
It still feels surreal to me whenever I hear one of the best chess players in the world use words like "juicer" and "kebab" as chess terms.
at 45:03 when the bishop goes to c5 u can just drop the knight back to b1
Smith mora op
Fantastic, this win might also bump you up in the rankings….to #4 maybe? This one had all the classics: Fiancheeto, Wooden Shields, Fossils, DEEZ Knights, (I think we even had DEEZ Rooks) and a lobster pinser too. Watching this, like the rest of the subs, we learn the game, we improve at the game and we enjoy the game. I'm also finding I can solve puzzles at above my official rating….all good plus a nice check for Hikaru.
Recaps vastly understate the tension that is in these matches live.
Gucci reza ferouza. …I loved. (:
What were you thinking when you played Qxb7 against Fabi???
Congrats to your wins! You are my favorite player to watch (except maybe for Magnus)!
Congrats Hikaru!
I won 30,000 Bananas π
Best Victory speech
Like your SM gambino
Grats bro
Millions millions views streamer mind
i definitely didn't like b5 in the armageddon game…. c3 was definitely the way to go… setting up for Nd2 or Rd2 with a huge advantage.
Noice one
wow, playing the smith-morra gambit two consecutive games… definitely raised my eyebrows when he played h4 and castling queenside. all he needed was a draw to avoid armageddon… not surprised fabi broke even after not short-castling.
Please do a video on the Smith Morra, I love that opening and was stoked to see you play it
So cool how GM Hikaru brings other masters on his channel
Whooo! π. Great analysis and congrats π₯³ .
Cheers to the King of Armageddon chess
Good job, you are really one of the best. but what i don't understand is why don't you say Magnus missclicked by putting his queen near your king, you didn t specify in noone of your vids about that
Hikaru is glowing as usual, keep up the great work king!
Congrats Hiki! βπͺπ½ππ½
the queen sack was beautiful
You sure are fast, fun and sharp. Thanks for sharing.
