RESPECT to Kramnik!!
Doing what the majority of the chess world is too afraid to do
yess
Kramnik!. What the actual pluck are you smoking?
Wouldn't calling analysis by a professional statistician "amateurish" be defamatory in itself?
So if I challenge Hikaru to 100 games and he wins all 100, can I then claim that statistics prove that Hikaru cheated???
"I don't know the last time Kramnik overperformed", get me a defibrillator pls ty.
What a glazer
The act of Vladimir is very depressing and dissapointing
16:21 that straight up sounds like some culty ah sht
Honestly levy if I could send you a VN I would so pls stop defending Hikaru because in my opinion he cheated as he's not stochfish to win 45 out of 46 games even though he's opponents aren't rated above 3000.
Hikaru is human and I think as human you just don't possess that mental stability to be so accurate for almost 46 games so just don't throw away your followers cause you're being sentimental
Looks like Questioning peoples credibility without evidence isnt fun. Glad hikaru learnt it the hard way, after what he did alongside Carlsen to Hans Niemann
Bro thinks he's Bobby Fischer 💀
13:40 bro is a menace
It really reads like Kramnik is having a breakdown, and he really REALLY needs to get some help. His post and comments read as delusionally self-aggrandizing and extremely paranoid.
Again if there is cheating online then prove it. I was the same with Hans, give us the proof and I don't think statistical analysis is credible enough. We need to understand the methodology or what is the move order and how is that an anomaly? Keep in mind with some genius their ability to memorize is top notch so maybe he studied a bunch of positions and was able to memorize games. Also if it is against 1 opponent you can understand their tendencies (tells). You can say the same for a poker player who goes up against the same competition and still is able to win absurd amounts or absurd amounts of the time (Phil Ivey in his early days, Tom Dwan, Phil Helmuth (again younger), Doyle Brunson, Stu Ungar) just because someone can memorize a position, memorize the cards in play and "predict" what is coming next doesn't mean they are cheating. Take card count (+ – Neutral) in black jack. You need to know how many shoes, cards in play, what the count is, what cards are showing and then the likelihood of an event happening. There are bad beats all the time. Just because someone ran a 1 outer doesn't mean they were cheating. Now take that 1 outer and run it over multiple days with thousands or more people.
this is the only time i've seen math being used in chess 💀
It cannot be ignored that Kramnik is Russian and Hikaru is American. Russia has been involved in cyber attacks and this is just an extension of that disinformation.
Famous (adj) having a widespread reputation, usually of a favorable nature; renowned; celebrated…..
Hahaha.
oldheads are mad that those recent pro chess players get that much attention compared to them in their days
I leave this community alone for FIVE SECONDS—
Maybe it's Kramnik who is cheating, and he's just trying to deflect attention from himself by blaming others. In other words projection: Accuse others of what you yourself are doing, with the idea of "nobody will think I'm cheating when I'm the one accusing others of cheating".
I'm proud to call myself an excited degenerate!! We all stand by GM Hikaru!
whatttt literally everyone knows Hikaru is the best blitz player
Hope you cover sinquefield cup. Please😊
Levy, No one is mentioning your name. It seems you are self dragging yourself into the controversy. I guess controversy is good for your channel, that's why?
To sum it up: Kramnik's approach in raising suspicions about Nakamura's chess performance is criticized for publicly accusing without providing full evidence, potentially damaging his own credibility. His method lacks transparency and is seen as sensationalist, focusing more on creating drama than on a factual discussion. Additionally, the approach overlooks the complexities of statistical analysis and contextual factors in evaluating game performance.
To satisfy all parties, Kramnik should present his complete and detailed evidence transparently, and engage in a professional, fact-based discussion respecting statistical complexities and context.
Seems like Kramnik is basing his "statistics" purely on the probabilities the ELO calculator gives on a given match. First issue is that it's more accurate for OTB matches and FIDE ratings. Any probability calculation tends to get more inaccurate at the extremes, where Hikaru is in terms of his online rating. It also doesn't account for the fact that Hikaru played several matches against the same players, and has played them before. He understands their playing style better than they understand his. It doesn't take into factor the fact that these players may be trying novel moves against Hikaru because they assume he knows all the theory lines, which he does. And that makes decisive results more likely. It doesn't account for intimidation factor. And it certainly doesn't account for flagging & running low on time which is a big factor in non-increment online chess.
Kramnik is just becoming like the average 50 year olds on facebook.
The "mathematic evidence" against Hikaru is kinda bullshit. Statistic improbability of one event doesn't take into account the amount of trials that took place before that event happened. For example, if a run like Hikaru's had a 1% chance of occurring, over time the probability of this event happening would be represented as 1-(1-0.01)^x where x is the amount of trials for a success. Over time, it actually becomes less likely that these improbable events don't happen.
"focus on me"
Kramnik sounds more to me like a butthurt chessmaster who never managed to become number one. He can accuse me of simping for Hikaru, but anyone who knows me knows that I would only simp for Andrea Botez – and only if it's against GothamChess.😏😝
Its not allinged properly gothem.
we're watching someone lose his mind in real time, it's sad
Are we watching someone develop some form of mental illness or brain damage in real time? Because I can't see what Kramnik gets/is getting out of this.
projection
Kramnik is an absolute clown for this
omg miracle playing chess rn
It's crazy how this guy became a chess champion and became so self-entitled that he thinks he can call out a mathematician as dumb and misleading in his comment, which is absolutely true by the way
Were they playing on Lichess? Every time someone on Lichess loses they immediately believe their opponent is cheating. Definitely a Lichess thing.
Kramnik, Acording to me Math beats Physcology in every possible way
1:18 Damn I never knew Levy had legs
“Your honor They’re glazing” killed me 😂😂😂
Funny because Hans now copies your thumbnail style
Kramnik sure talks a lot of nonsense for someone who hasn't posted any proof whatsoever of his claims.
He sounds so delusional right now I could probably handle him in a match cause he wouldn’t be paying attention 😂
Kramnik saying that he has proof means that he did the probability calculations and verified them well. Therefore there's no reason to delay releasing them, or he should mention any specific one otherwise (like the need to format properly).
Otherwise, if he did not verify his numbers, then he is in no position to accuse Hikaru.
Kramnik is a disgrace to the game. He should be ignored, I don't understand why you are covering him.
So when did Kramnik become the chess police?
Kramnik is going into his Bobby Fisher phase
It’s reeks of jealousy from Kramnick
