Underrated comment.
😂😂😂😂
Hikaru fans are never letting Kramnik live that down
0:27 - Rameshbabu Praggnand-Hahaha 😂
Lol
😂😂
Hahaha
😭😭
There’s nothing more gangster than taking a super GM out of prep on move 3 and immediately standing up because you know it.
Not just any superGM, the superGM who generally takes other superGms out of prep by move 3.
Underrated comment.
Bro made a video even before Nepo-Vidit game ends 💀
I think it was the minute after the game actually
He literally doesn’t care 😆
He’s playing candidates just for content
It was clearly going to end in a draw before Hikaru's game ended.
@@CityFan_69which we love him doing. We have the insights or thoughts on how the best player plays
I won $50 on a bet that Vidit would blunder, love the guy
vidit doing everything in his power to not allow hikaru to be world champion😭💀
Looks like that also stopped him from being world champ look how hard he’s been getting rolled lately
Really😂
@@blizyon30fps86 he beat hikaru twice and lost to ian twice and the second time was an absolute throw
@@christiankarim2800It wasn’t a throw. He had to try and win. Drawing against Ian would have been as good as losing for him. He had to try and keep the game complicated and unfortunately Ian completely outplayed him in a beautiful endgame. But Vidit doesn’t owe it to make a draw and basically end the tournament for himself.
@@christiankarim2800 i hate that in sports. tennis is so frustrating. Some player beats a top contender then loses next match
"fossilized like all the people in Pompeii 2000 years ago" 💀💀💀
Can't trigger volcano victims since no one survives lava
too soon
I died at that
@@matta5749nah, it’s been 2000 years like Hikaru said
@@brennanshrider65 Ashes killed them.
Approximately 6 months ago, I was browsing TH-cam without knowing absolutely anything about the world of Chess, so I got a video of you against Magnus Carlsen. I saw it and I was very surprised at how the person who made the video analyzed the plays and more than said that you 2 are the best in the world in the last decade. I was impressed by the way you Hikaru calculate the plays and more that they said that you are the king of the "blitz", I began to watch your blitz games and I was shocked when I saw that in 1 second you made the best possible decision, and I was more surprised when in a blitz or bullet tournament, I don't remember. I saw that you were champion against Magnus. At that moment my head exploded and I started playing chess all day, and currently all day I have in my head chess plays of games that I play.
I just have to tell you that you are my idol and you are the person who made me fall in love with chess.
I'm from Mexico and I speak Spanish and Middle English, but that doesn't stop me from missing any of your games, or yours, I'm at work but sideways watching your games live in the World Cup. I don't miss the analysis you do even with subtitles automatically generated by TH-cam hahaha.
Good luck and lose or win this tournament you are my idol and for me you are the best in the world
I feel this! I randomly discovered Hikaru and now am hooked on his TH-cam and streams. It’s also reignited a love for chess I had when I was younger.
This is so wholesome
Keep grinding 💪
Nice bots.
The same for me. And iam also Mexican.
This man beat Prag, started thinking immediately about the video title, and posted the video as the LIVESTREAM IS STILL GOING!!!
Video title & thumbnail can be easily prepped beforehand no matter if you ended up winning or losing.
But yeah, for making analysis video with such depth & quality in a very short amount of time, he is the goat of chess streamer
Never in a million years would i expect to see an RRR thumbnail in a chess video 🤣
😂
So thoughtful innovation by Hikaru! Very creative and imaginative : D
@@abhik8122 its his editor not hikaru
What is RRR?
@@MHY-bu1hy indian movie name (oscar winning song)
Round 13 vs Ian with black, Round 14 vs Gukesh with white and Fabi plays Ian with white, these last 2 rounds will be absolute cinema
Today is a must win for Hikaru and we’re cheering on Fabi for a win 😂
For once I might be supporting Fabi. I won't be too hurt if Ian wins candidates, but it would be nice if an active streamer were to win 😉
@@ianstopher9111 I’ll be honest I’ll take anyone over Ian, please not a fucking rematch bro it’s boring af
Vidit truly is the kryponite for hikaru. beating hikaru 2 times, and losing a winning match against the top guy ,when everyone thought hikaru finally joined the no. 1 rankings.
😂 vidit's purpose in this tournament is to torture hikaru
Play hikaru bum
LMAO Vidit genuinely has it in for Hikaru 😂
To make matters worse, Vidit beats Hikaru twice and then proceeds to lose to Ian twice, possibly determining the whole event winner :|
Actually Vidit was never winning in the entire game. Each time I tried to play the supposed "winning line" for white, the eval corrected itself to a small edge for White. Chesscom was just too shortsighted.
If anything, vidit was fighting for the draw pretty much the entire game. He was close to clinching it. Props to Ian for sacking two pawns towards the end to prolong the struggle.
The one time we finally root for Vidit after what he's done to Hikaru, he blunders a winning position then is unable to hold Ian to a draw, then loses placing Ian +0.5 ahead of the tournament. Truly unfortunate...
It's not just that he blundered a winning position, he did it 2 times.
It's all part of Hikaru's master plan to smoke Ian and Gukesh in the last rounds and win the tournament
@@blindteammates4922 I am convinced he was paid to give Ian the win by throwing his matches
@@blindteammates4922 don't forget the 3 blunders that turned a total draw into a loss... Which he actually did see if you read his body language
@@willwcbb with black good luck if nepo didnt won today would change drastic but fingers crossed im also pissed of vidith
Congratulations Hikaru!! Truly rooting for you in this candidates and i hope you will continue to marke the tournament as exciting as it is! You go man
Vidit snagged a loss from the jaws of victory 😢
He would be pissed if he knew what vidit just did
vidit trolling fr
he predicted it during his interview, it's not a surprise to hikaru that ian is better under time pressure
Vidit is just so bad, he always fails to defend. He is like a 2600 player
Fr coz of vidit hikaru and gukesh needs to win
he does not care
The thumbnail got me again
For those that do not know, the thumbnail picture is from an Oscar-winning Indian song named 'Natu-Natu' from the Indian move RRR. I'm not sure why Hikaru used this reference other than the fact that Prag is Indian. Cool to see, though. Did not expect it.
its just trolling prag, since natu natu song is indian and is known to foreigners too. nothing malicious, I bet, from Hikaru, just bantering.
@@jinxblaze these thumbnails have be absolute peak the last week or two. aint noone getting offended
Wow, that Vidit loss was baffling today! Two winning positions blundered and he avoided a clear drawing line at the end. I get it, he’s trying to up his points and the nerves are there, but he played way too gutsy at the end.
Obviously lost on purpose imo.
@@ichatterbotnah, he had to win atleast 3 games to win the tournament that's why he risked the game especially since he had the white pieces. He must have felt like he was so close to winning the game that he tried to push his luck even more.
@@ichatterbot nah it would make sense for him to help gukesh
i dont know how he missed the line where nepo sacked a pawn.
@@titanszsthis is not the case brother. Please take into account that is very likely his last candidates. He had to play for the win.
You've got the most wins out of anyone this tournament. Win or lose, you've done yourself proud!
Nah at this point i dont think anything will make hikaru “proud” except becoming world champ
@@itshamdounbitch Bro he doesn't care about being world champion. But he should be proud that he's done so well thus far
@@itshamdounbitchexactly, he solidified his spot at number two, he’s the only person Magnus would consider a rival, hikaru is only fighting for world champ at this point
@@Liamalaing”he doesn’t care about being world champion” 😂😂😂😂
@@LiamalaingYou really think that someone won't care about being world champion? Lol
Hikaru, you should have called the arbiter over when you had the connect-four.
"and the juicer will stop the wide peepos"
spoken like a true GM....
11:18 Anybody not named Magnus Carlsen 🤣
Magnus Carlsen isnt Human 😂😂😂
Big win today. You've got the hardest pairings now. Alireza, Gukesh, and the sole leader Nepo himself. Good luck Hikaru.
Alireza is gonna be ez to Hikaru
Alireza just not good in the candidates
Think will be an easy win
It’s still gonna be tough but our giga chad Hikaru will clutch
We need prag to lock in and kick IANs butt
This is best because it means he won't have to rely on others taking points/halfpoints off them. It's all in his own hands now.
Playing in a candidates tournament, and a big time online tournament, and doing recaps. I'm tempted to use the adjective "superhuman". Good luck, Maestro.
0:28 Rameshbabu pragnanadha ha ha 😂
This is a great example of where not only can you miss the 'optimal' engine move, you can sometimes even see the optimal move and choose not to play it because of actual human reasons. In this game Hikaru chooses a theoretically weaker move because it keeps his moves simple and Pragg's moves complicated.
Remember the engine best move is determined in a vacuum of no time pressure, it is not necessarily the best move for a human to play if the reason that it's theoretically strong is that it leads to an extremely complicated strategy requiring lots of thinking time that you may not have.
Hikaru has the wife buff now
Was thinking the same thing 😁 Man's unstoppable now!
Let's go Champ, congrats on the 69th tilted Tuesday victory along with the win today. So much momentum built up I don't see anyone stopping you.... We're going to Disney World!!!
Don't underestimate Gukesh, He won't be an easy opponent. I am just waiting for that legendary title and thumbnail you will post after becoming WC. Love from India.
i dont dislike hikaru but the amount of hate and anger have towards i have towards his fans after vidit's loss yesterday is incredible. I want hikaru to lose only to watch these 400 elo bots to cry and suffer ong.
@@morninglion27 Don't worry Vidit has bounce-back mentality.
15:36 THAT'S WILD! DO IT AGAIN🤣
THE TITLE, I CAN'T 😂😂😂
Maybe he saw some of the Chess24 coverage, David and Tania couldn't stop making bad Pragg-puns either
Bad puns are amazing!
What a fun game to watch. It looked and felt so different than all the other games so far this candidates, it was awesome to watch. I also love how after the queens came off so early, certain commentators were presuming there would be a pretty quick draw made, but they did not understand the master plan and the prep :)
Others: Praggnanandhaa
Hatory: Praggnan haa(😂) haa(😂) haa(😂)
Been following your content since before the pandemic when you were about 300k subscriptions..it’s really nice to see the community grow and your channel have more people , I pray you win the candidates even though you don’t care ..but it will really makes us happy and we are all rooting for you …much love from Nigeria 🇳🇬 ❤
What a beautiful win! Well played good sir, I was fist pumping the air! Super happy for you and well deserved you got this!
Congrats on Titled Tuesday win - looking forward to watching it.
You're dedication to content is amazing. Appreciate all the work and your play. Congrats on the win today.
1:26 just causally watering the plants lol
Let's GO Hikaru, ceiling stockfish is proud of you
Huge win. Congrats to you. Very well played!
What a game! Was up on my toes watching till the end, gotta say props for finding everything so fast. Amazing prep, great time management and flawless ending blow. Truly a masterpiece, thank you for this. Lets go for that victory, you definetely can do it! I feel like most of the field is exhausted and does not have that much prep as you do, meanwhile you look rested and interested. Cheering from Czech Republic!
That forcing sequence with fossils is brutal and amazing. You had to see all the variations 5 moves in advance, great stuff, Hikaru really was sharp!
I am on this train since long long ago. And I won't step down. You can do it Hikaru! I am happy everytime I see the notification of the match as a win for you.
It’s actually crazy how much contribution QXC has in chess 😂 the man really expanded chess dictionary 😂 Hikaru super glad for you!! Keep going!!!!
It's delightful to see you discussing (much of) your thinking and strategy during this important event. Not many people, in any sport, publicly disclose their thoughts and plans as competitions progress.
you're the goat, its so nice seeing you play in a tournament like that
Grats on the positivity!! And thanks for the recaps and the wonderful content =)
Welcome back for another Hikaru recap !!! Hikaru you are built different !! Tittle Tuesday was just a warmup afterall! Congrats!!!!
It’s so incredible to get an insight into a competitors mind during the contest. This is some of the best content I’ve ever seen. Thanks a bunch Hikaru and good luck on the rest of the tournament
Hikaru, your youtube videos and recaps of tournament matches have become one of my favorite parts of my day, and are a big part of why I and many others continue to love chess. I’m genuinely so grateful you continue to make content like this, you deserve the world 🫶🏽
Amazed you have so much energy to post video reviews of your games during the tournament. I know you have described yourself as “streamer first” and this clearly shows that. Keep up the good work.
What a Win!! Lets get that candidates win Hikaru🎉🎉
Hey naka, congrats on your win! I’ve been rooting for you for years and I hope the last 3 rounds work out well for you. Sorry about all the hate that came your way the other day.
That D5 and H5 sequence find was so impressive, really made me impressed!
Great win. Congrats.
Win again Ian, and Gukesh, and go for Glory.
Hikaru we all believe in you, keep fighting and keep a cool mindset
What absolute DOMINATING performance, Love your analysis as per usual Hikaru good luck in your next match :)
I'm truly rooting for Hikaru to emerge victorious in this tournament. Just imagine the wealth of insights we'll gain from watching more recaps, delving into the precise strategies and meticulous preparation involved in navigating the world championship match. My gratitude goes out to the incredible chess player, Hikaru, for the thrilling journey he's taking us on.
Some really inspiring chess. Keep it up. Keep focus on playing good moves and having a good time.
Great Win Hikaru.
Haha Vidit is making it hard for you to win lol. You are very much in it. Keep playing your best chess, enjoy the games. Take it a game at a time and hopefully you end up high up ❤.
Hikaru is in BEAST MODE!!!💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽,just have fun and just play chess
TEAM HIKARU
You are making this candidates very entertaining to watch. Great come back, thank you!
this video feels like it comes from an alternate reality where XQC was world champion in the 90s
Love how Hikaru bounced back from early losses to place 2nd in candidates. Would be interesting to see him in the championship!
"Praggnanand-ha ha" -Hikaru 2024
We are very proud of you Hikaru!! keep the momentum going!
Great game today hikaru and good luck with the rest of your games!
You are an example of a determined man hope you the best hikaru
Can you please bring back the Bongcloud music intro. I don’t care if the video isn’t about Bongcloud games, it was just your best video intro by 69 orders of magnustude
@GMHikaru Rooting for you all the way! I believe you can do this. You control your own destiny now!
Knew you had it in ya Nakamura! Win this thing.
such beautiful win! go hikaru!
Vidit, losing a winning position so bad. Hikaru did amazing though, what a game and opening.
Great victory, very insightful recap! Go, Hikaru, go! Win that tournament, please!
The chess world is yearning for a world championship match with your participation and your recap videos ...
One side note: Imagine some time-travelling chess master from 50 years ago watching this video. I would love to see his confused face being introduced to kebabs, juicers, bastions, pepos, bongclouds, wooden shields, classic fossils, classic connect fours ... :-)
Round 13 between our man and Nepo might just be the decider of the tournament
Ian vs Vidit just finished and Hikaru already uploaded
Wait till we see Hikarus face when he sees , Ian just won against Vidit !!!!
I don't think he'll be too surprised, did you see the interview? He already expected that Ian Will would win against Vidit
Watch until the end of the video and you will see that he knows Ian was winning.
he literally said in the video that Nepo was probably going to win
Fantastic play Hikaru...well done!
Your time management was really good this game, very impressive showing!
That's the hikaru we know
Hikaru Nakamura=Half man- Half amazing
Half pineapple.
It ain't hard to tell...
Not sure about being half man. Upper half or lower?
@@renemichaelk I excel, then prevail
I mean hes half streamer half super gm
this is what i wanna see on hikaru hungry to win and much more calculating
Go Hikar! I hope the best for you for the remaining 3 rounds. I support you 100%.
That picture from the movie RRR because its a Bollywood movie is hilarious. Honestly its the reason I want Hikaru to win the Candidates tournament first and then the world Championship! Lets go Hikaru! 🍍 🍍 🍍 🍍🍍 🍍 🍍 🍍
It's a tollywood film not a bollywood film, don't take our films and call it bollywood films lol 🤣
It is a Telugu movie
@@Naruto-ts7qd that guy is clearly not indian chill tf out he just doesnt know the difference
Vidit beat Hikaru today yet again KEKW
Loved that post game interview with Hikaru and Pragg. It was like a collab. So awesome.
You can just tell from his intro on which days he's won😂. Lets go Hikaru, rooting for you!
amazing victory ❤❤❤ hikaru u can get this Candidates
Imagine that during the game with Pragg bro was literally thinking about a wordplay for the title of this video😂
Vidit straight up ruining the candidates bro
Hikaru: I'm experienced now, professional. Fortress' been broke, been flagged down a couple of times, I'm bad! Been solving puzzles. I done something new for this match. I done checkmate while castling. That's right. I have checkmated while castling. I done en-passant checkmate. I done blindfold games, thrown stockfish in jail. That's bad! Only last week I jousted against a knight, sieged a rook, Excommunicated a bishop! I'm so mean I make openings close!
Bad, fast! Fast! Fast! Last night I found a checkmate in 40, hit the clock and was in the podium before the tournament started.
The game panned out well. I was watching for a while in bits and I couldn’t really tell which way things would go, but I saw you had slight time advantage. One thing I will say is that I observed good patience from both of you. So that was one of my main takeaways. Well done for getting the win. You are now within the respectable range. If it works out in the end then the entire run was good is how I will see it. As the pressure and the excitement mount, I will say, remember your routine along the way so that you continue as you have begun.
i cant describe my joy when i saw you play bd5+ and then h5 during live stream, it was as if im playing and i was soo happy for you hikaru..we truly love you. good luck
The best move was a bong cloud?....
Amazing.
10/10. Hikaru should win the candidates and bong cloud his way to become the world champion.
Bro premade the video even before the game started, what a legend
Incredible! Your insight on your game immediately after playing it, is unprecedented. I've been a fan for years. I hope you win! You are the most talented of all players in the candidates in my mind. People will disagree but everyone is entitled to their opinion..cheers!
I love how he throws Magnus praisings randomly
"If it's good enough to play agaisnt Magnus then why wouldn't it be good enough to play against anybody else"
"I understand this from human pov whether it's prag or myself or anybody not named Magnus Carlson"
God, amazing commentary. Love the Bongcloud, Wooden Shield.. all these meme references. Makes you realize that the engine kind of gets thrown out the window. You have to play the game and the clock is ticking. Very interesting stuff.
It will be fun to watch tie breakers between mepo and hikaru. Hikaru will be the favourite in faster time controla obviously but i think nepo is also very underrated nepo has quite a few world blitz and rapid podium finishes.
