How lucky we are to have this absolute world class player share his talents with us and with such calm and instructive running commentary. Absolutely brilliant.
Watching this video I realized that the game I play is not chess. It must be something related to chess, but definitelly not chess. Hikaru, plays, comments, hears music, sings and watches the comments all at the same time and playing against very strong guys. That is magic.

Hikaru's opponent: puts knight on center square. Hikaru: Did i blunder something? I made a huge blunder. Also Hikaru: Checks and mates his every opponent.
This is a Great Man, really, I ve never seen such a player, nice, polite, sincere.. loving chess and his subscribers, I wish you good luck, thanks for your work!!
@@kevinwellwrought2024 India is going to be the leading chess nation in the next 10 years or so, just look at the number of grandmasters under the age of 14
But the population of India is 1.37 billion and that of Iran is only 90 million. If you compare the ratio of chess master and population India is doing very poorly in Chess. Imagine how many top grandmaster master Norway would have if their population was 1.37 billion. India still uses old Anand in their top tournaments in order to get lucky which is very bad. Out of 1.37 billion only Anand and Norway out of 5.5 million has produced Carlsen.
@@kevinwellwrought2024 You have a point but that's because Norway is a much more developed country in terms of GDP per capita and poverty rates etc. Not many children in India get a chance to play chess despite India being the origin of chess itself. Taking all the domestic issues into concern I think India is doing far better than Norway considering the huge number of geniuses it's producing.
It's cool how when you play Chess you always have a clear plan...I always try to employ that philosophy in my own Chess games but obviously not anywhere near your level of understanding.
For me distractions, including pain from injuries, like Kramnik cause that too -- good and bad play. Its very annoying but I'm getting a handle on it I think. Good to know im not the only one. My age doesn't help at 62. Thx,
I thought the bong cloud was to swap king and queen starting positions. What exactly is the bong cloud, as agad might say, "help me with my vast knowledge".
Hi Cow the luck evens out over time. This the variance does and the better player wins. Short term a low level player can beat the best in the world. I play all over the world I’m a open level player, maybe like 1900-2000 in chess. I’m still getting better. There’s bots like in chess that know the best play based on random dice. Nobody can beat the bot. It also ranks how a person plays-it’s called PR the lower the PR the stronger the player. So it’s absolutely clear the skill between people. When it gets close to the top it’s not as clear. But between a intermediate & open level player it’s very clear.
Heinrich Lucas Ford - nowhere to play for $ online. Everyone started using bots and were robbing who ever they played. Where you live? I play everywhere there’s action.
@@RobPalmer454 ive studied french for 6 years it doesnt mean i know what im talking about when it comes to french, you are pulling shit out of your ass, just shut the fuck up and fuck off thanks
I think when it got to final four playing only 4 games was too short if someone get s lucky win from opponent blunder has a huge advantage in my opinion at very least the winner should come from best of 10 games with no count for draw
@@dayoldeggplant I guess it s more of a north american thing. Here down in Argentina you would sound like Tarzan talking that way, youd rather say "no esta bien"
I find it highly disrespectful to the tournament to play the bongcloud against someone who is still competing for fourth place. I really do and I wish you would be a better sports there.
ok nobody cares what you "find" disrespectful or not. He is a *streamer* he has to make content, if you can't understand such a simple principle then you shouldn't be playing or watching a game like chess. The better content he makes, the more people watch, if he just does normal stuff like play a tournament normally, then what does he have to offer over anyone else? Basic ideas, not hard to grasp
NO BUENO NO BUENO GOOD I was right a follower your analysis in high mouth give us more idea of how you think greetings guadalajara mexico I follow you 46:06
I know this a year old but if you play more of these maybe instead of the watched other games during the dead time you did for stream edit in some analysis? As a newer player it’s not super easy to follow this level of play.
Even going over what the book moves on the opening are and where the first break in it is could be good learning material. For people who haven’t studied all the openings.

It is a great leap forward for the royal game that the word "Bongcloud" has entered chess parlance.
Truly the golden age of chess.
Iran is producing lots of chess geniuses nowadays, even the youth world champion Maghsoodloo is an Iranian.
Ever since the fall of the Soviet Union in the 1980's many nations have emerged as chess powers, including USA and China.
Yes, Iran, China and Norway have become super powerful.

Hikaru is on...UNREAL form!!!WEll done man!
In* I'm here for ya buddy
24:30 is Hikaru started play in not his match? :D He so enjoy this
I thought the bong cloud was to swap king and queen starting positions. What exactly is the bong cloud, as agad might say, "help me with my vast knowledge".
I don't understand how someone is rated 2700+ but fucks up so hard? But if I were to play 2700+ player I would be looking really stupid...
His screen name is "Last7Samurai", his name on scoreboard is "Ali Marandi" aaaand HIkaru calls him "JJ"
His name is Cemil Can Ali Marandi, but we pronounce C's a bit like english J's in Turkish, so it's a nickname.
the real question is, did jj make a mistake tho?? did jj make a huge mistake??? did jj make a mistake?? did jj make a mistake??
24:11 Can Danya actually draw this? I don't know. :D 24:36 Danya ouch ouch ouch :D
47:22 Can someone tell me the song?
Too bad, Hikaru lives in Magnus era.
If he lived, let say, in Kasparov era, he would be considered as the goat of speed chess
Well let's see a 1'0 true bullet match between the two. Then we can finally conclude Magnus is better at a tims controls.
I’m a student of backgammon, I enjoy chess as a change scenery.
Best of luck
backgammon uses dice. dice = chance = luck. I'm not hatin just genuinely curious how one can study a game heavily dependent on luck rather than skill

The way Ali checkmated Danya with 2 queens was one of the most insane things I've ever seen
this alireza kid is going to be the king in the future, no one else will be close...
Are the arrows done in post editing or is there a button on stream
generally the game itself aloows you to do that, at least in chess.com which is where I play and i believe him too

This music reminds me of discount clothing stores.
Huh
“WHAT IS HE SMOKING??!!” (LoL)
playing chess like tower defense tactics
Someone know the music that's used over these videos? Since Hikaru clearly isn't listening to the same tunes lol
The actual music is played on twitch when he streams. He often listens to oldies but goodies. Some of the song names pop up in the twitch chat.
I love the way he says Danya. He doesn't gaf if he says it right haha
... thats his nickname for daniel... common sense? lol
