Hikaru, Magnus or anyone of Wesley So's generation will never be more talented than Wesley So, i.e. they will never beat Wesley So for the CLASSICAL world championship which Wesley So won in 2019 after beating Magnus in 3 classical games in a row. – Hikaru is the most talented in rapid. – Magnus is the best in classical & rapid. – Wesley So is the most talented in classical.
But hell lol damn Wesley So. To think the final game ends like this after what 3-5 draws in a row? But in classical 9LX, I have no doubt Wesley So will continue to dominate as Wesley So already has, being unbeaten in 14/14 classical games.
I notice here there's a point where Hikaru is still at 10min while Wesley So is at 7min right? So yeah it proves a huge part of why Wesley So lost today is because of preparation which Hikaru can't do in 9LX. Lol.
Well, what Hikaru is saying about this tournament being a bigger thing for Wesley was true because he's already a successful youtuber and already making a lot of money streaming. He doesn't need to push himself too much and win many tournaments to make a lot of money.
Dude came within a whisker of playing a world championship against Nepo. And he's won the 960 title! In my eyes he is arguably the best chessplayer in the world.
NICE ONE STREAMER! So and Nakamura REALLY went head to head, they were so "stubborn" for not letting the other win easily, and that's what I call a GREAT match. Well deserved. My salutes also go to Wesley So, a fantastic player and opponent.
psa. before any petty hater starts whining "he won just cause So blundered" lol yea that's what you expect in high level chess, a single mistake/blunder is that fatal and always a deserving victory for anyone who punishes it mercilessly.
Alex Botez left the chat, don't cry Alex just look at your fraud award trophy….. Congrats Hikaru your an inspiration, you definitely prove people wrong about you.
YES!! I watched the game. Hikaru pounced on Wesley's mistake in five seconds. He obviously knew he won, the moment Wesley blundered taking the pawn with his Queen. Great game!!
Congrats Hikaru ! Wesley So is a tough match opponent. What will Hikaru announce ? 1:21 sounds like something very important " more significant than this tournament " ??
Itβs easy to forget watching his stream – with all the memes and messing around – that Hikaru is a truly world class grandmaster with incredible knowledge, experience and skills. I think he may have forgotten himself! I think itβs awesome we live in an age that these guys are so accessible.
King of chess? Naka is certainly one of the greatest players to ever sit at a chess board, but he's obviously not the king of the game.

Congrats Mr GM HIKARU!

King Hikaru rules!
What does the Trophy looks like Hikaru got for winning the American Cup? Is it a brown 'Lava Rock'? π
β¨πππ
WEEEEEELCOME BACK EVERYONE
Fkn Hiki won again! The live streaming training is workin bud!
1:14 Hikaru again with the villain laugh.
People say Hikaru kept going for draws… no, he's always trying to go for something interesting and different. He always takes risks.
King of US chess lol
Nice to see a humble streamer making good.
Hate his big arrogant face…but its earned…he has an earned disposition…
Naka-tpunch to Wesley
You can feel Hikaru's genuine friendship with Wesley So. Normally he wouldn't spare much thought for an opponent.
Prime Nakamura!
Nice jackets everyone!
πππ
Hikaru is β€β€β€
I hope one day some IM and WFM wins it too
Fantastic player. A genius.
We all know Hikaru not even close to Fischer, today gms overratedπ
This dude is so phony and pretentious it's gross
Either of them could have won.
Get them engines outa here! Sick of them! BOBBY WAS RIGHT. Grats Hikaru!
Congrats Champ! Knock-out Naka, strikes again. Wesley played very well considering the crazy world schedule.
this man is real cocky
Congrats! good games π₯
ππ₯π πππ

It's something about the way he speaks that rubs me the wrong way. Not a fan. Good for him.
Congrats to the production of the event, it was top notch !!!!!
Dude came within a whisker of playing a world championship against Nepo.
And he's won the 960 title!
In my eyes he is arguably the best chessplayer in the world.
Yay! Congrats my king
Congrats to you both Wes & Naka!

Hikaru we Americans want you in the Candidates!! Love Wesley, Dominguez, Fabi, etcβ¦ But now itβs YOUR TIME!
How come there is no ceremony for the tournament!!

Good job mr streamer

Hikaru not even trying his beat is #5 in world classical but he knowa when hes at his best Magnua still is slightly better
Now that was an epic blunder from Wesley … It's beyond my understanding why would he even consider taking that pawn. Bit of anticlimax.
Itβs easy to forget watching his stream – with all the memes and messing around – that Hikaru is a truly world class grandmaster with incredible knowledge, experience and skills. I think he may have forgotten himself! I think itβs awesome we live in an age that these guys are so accessible.
A certain Norwegian if he were allowed to enter (i.e USA national ) would have won simple as. MAGNUS is the king of chess.
Great guy. I met him in Butami, Georgia years ago, very approachable and a good sport
Who care…. He literally doesnt care…..
