@ 28:04 Can anyone think of a refute to Nxd5? After pawn take d5 bxb5 hitting the unprotected rook I can’t find a good reply for black that doesn’t loose material. C5 can be refuted with Nxc5 forking the queen and bishop. After queen moves let’s say Qe8; Kxb7+ with a discovery on the rook. So to avoid this line black must not take the kd5 and be contempt w losing a pawn.
cmon Fabi @ 42:15 just Nf6+ crushes you allowed him back in the game. Btw I wouldn't expect him to see Qxh7+!! in speed chess but that's really nice! kxh7 nf6+ double check forces mate (kg7 rh7+ kf8 rh8+ and mate on either g8 or e8)
around 2:13:00 this starts to get vaguely disturbing even the best sometimes we lose without understanding and sometimes we win without understanding chess is fun?
Reminds me a little bit of Peter Svidler. He knows he played a terrible move, right after he plays it. The title really should be Caruana vs Hansen. Almost all the games are thus.
It's good for Fabi that he is not playing for the world blitz championship , he would have no chance versus Magnus , twelve games of classical though will give good chances in a short match , get to rapid and blitz tiebreaks and it's all Carlsen being highly favored . The world title match should be at least sixteen classical games instead .
"Not that good at blitz"? You do understand what 2800 means, yes? And I doubt very seriously that the dream will go away any time soon. All it takes is for Carlsen to have a bad day or two... entirely possible!!
Lothor "not as good", true. 2800 is still 2800 and there are not many of those! OTB Fabian is an amazing gift. On top of that, has a great personality that comes across on video... This is what a world champion ought to look like. 😀
Lol, 11:10:00 "Did Eric just mate himself....I'd really love to see his reaction, chuckle"!! Right! Hey bro and brahs didn't know we could PnP in chess too. Lol. Eric is good maybe braver (more aggressive) after a few. Came back, good for him. Thx.
if the world championship goes to tie breaks there is zero chance fabi wins. Fabi is my favorite player and it is no slander to say that he is not in the top ten of the world in fast time controls
That doesn't seem like Hansen's style at all, going into theoretical main lines against Fabi?... and beating him easily with some demonic tactical lines... I smell a rat here, honestly...
there was no "beating him easily" lol Fabi was very classy and didn't always play what he knew to be the best move instead intending to keep games interesting for the viewers and as such was punished severely because of its unprincipled nature.
Hey... Eric is probably a great partner in case the WC comes down to Armageddon, and these guys have to have talked about that... MC still better, but what about some blitz with HN too? Fabi has friends in high places! Maybe Andrew Tang...?
Andrew is a good bullet player, but his has no chance against any 2600 GM in blitz. He relies heavily on classical theory in his openings and if one can get him out of theory early he is mediocre blitz player..., at least thats what i heard Naka say. We often forget that he is 18yrs and barely scrapped through his norm yet most world class GMs are easily playing at 2600+ at 16yrs... So great guy, great bullet player, but not even close to Eric in blitz.
Having watched quite of few of Hikaru's streams, I have to say I find Fabi's modesty and good attitude extremely refreshing.
I love how he kept saying "we". Made me feel like I was a part of the games too haha
Hikaru is one of the biggest narcissists you'll ever find.
I enjoy watching Naka's streams and I dont believe there is enough evidence to support any of your negative claims to the man

You clowns give too much of a fuck about people's personalities. Fucking wannabe shrinks.
Fabiano has this zen master energy down to a tee.
Very likeable guy.
He seems like such a cool guy. I hope he wins the championship.
"Eric is probably the best drunk chess player in the world." -- Fabiano Caruana (1:48:28)
Saint Dufus however we now see that yet again, magnus is actually the best.
And apparently the best drunk wrestler.
I'm a huge carlsen fan but after watching this I don't mind caruana winning the world championship title.
BUT IS HE GONNA?
he came to close to the sun and got burned
Eric furious: throwing things, complete immersion at the game, cheering when winning
Fabi furious: reading chat, talking smoothly, making jokes, winning all games
'winning all games'
15.5 - 14.5 says otherwise.
that's why we all love eric!
great show thanks fabi!

Yeah, he’s just an introverted chill guy. No ego or BS whatsoever. I also found with the podcast he’s really well spoken and always reasonable.
it's good he is reacting like a normal human.
Even though you lost against Magnus, you're such a great player. Keep it up and you'll be the next champion! I believe in you
No chance. He just memorize super computer moves. Only format he can do better is Classical.
@@shivammaheshwari6388 Just memorising supercomputer moves doesn't make someone world no 2. Fabi is a beast in classical. In 2018 WCC, Fabi drew Magnus 14/14 and lost only in the tie breaker.
27:15, the eyes of a mind ultra-focused
yeah you can say that fabi is one of the modest guy among top 10 ten with svidler very polite guy
"I can't tell if it's Eric or one of the interns". Such a wonderfully subtle insult!
I don't think that was a jab ... just factual at that point
I think he was just wondering whether the chessbrah account's low rating was accurate or not, and he actually couldn't tell
"He didn't want the draw, so I took his twix by force." = priceless!
I fucking love this guy , he has a gentle spirit
De mis jugadores favoritos. De los mejores
38:22 pure genius
Miles beautiful chess
Why not take rook with bishop?
Dank You Eric queens
The pawn promotion with check will get the queen anyway. Rook + Knight vs Knight endgame is hopeless.
by who?
Oh my. Is this the guy who has to play blitz with Magnus tomorrow?
JiveDadson now you know why Magnus offered the draw
not if he wins in rapid first~
Yup in few hours l, let's see what's gonna happen
He has been dead.
Thank you for sharing Fabi! Can't underestimate Eric Hansen either, he's also been doing some serious improving. And definitely good luck playing Magnus for the crown. Anyone would need it.
i love it when top players stream now we got naka magnus and fabi´, every buddy stream now tan tan ta hope u guys get the ref
when he leans in and concentrates his brainwaves cause the screen to start flashing
My brain just melted. Seriously it hurts just watching.
I almost died when he used the f bomb. 🤣🤣🤣
Sometimes fabi looks like a patzer in fast time control and sometimes like himself , a true genius!
Go Fabi!
If he doesn't win game 12 tomorrow, he's gonna get his cheeks busted in rapid
lmao exactly my thoughts..
Lmao fax no printer
Welp, you were right.
cheeks=busted af
It's already happened)
up with Fabiano Caruana!!! :-)
THE KING OF DRAWS
someone should go back in time and tell him to take blitz seriously.

The game at around 1 hr 12 minutes. Is QF1 playable? In the end where you went Qg3 instead

GM Fabi Caruana
1 : 52 : 16. " is it possible for me to blunder more ? " Fabi I laughed so hard at that comment
At 1:31:34, rook c7 also prevents white from winning the bishop.
They say he is not that good at blitz but damm he is good.
but magnus is great at blitz
i like your bullet style, slow but sure, can you move faster a lil, so that you can compete against alireza magnus, hikaru and tang?
cmon Fabi @ 42:15 just Nf6+ crushes you allowed him back in the game.
Btw I wouldn't expect him to see Qxh7+!! in speed chess but that's really nice! kxh7 nf6+ double check forces mate (kg7 rh7+ kf8 rh8+ and mate on either g8 or e8)
Fabi actually has a great sense of humour
around 2:13:00 this starts to get vaguely disturbing
even the best sometimes we lose without understanding
and sometimes we win without understanding
chess is fun?
Is Caruana allowed to have Nakamura sub for him tomorrow in tiebreaks?
Fabi has the same reaction I have when I realized I blundered.
And it was fabled that he never streaned again
Reminds me a little bit of Peter Svidler. He knows he played a terrible move, right after he plays it. The title really should be Caruana vs Hansen. Almost all the games are thus.
"I'm sick of your shit, Eric"
Nice
"What the f*ck is going on" -Future World Champion
Bae
Fabi is stronger in classical he would also admit that I'm sure. Not that he's still not incredibly strong blitz just not world #2 blitz
Rip..
Probably Magnus watched this, now I understand the draw offered in game 12. Still great guy Fabi.
10:05 why you throwing shade at Eric?
first game is bullet yo
Regresando del tiempo y se supo que caruana no pudo con carlsen.
Mark zukerberg with specs?
Harry Potter playing chess ?
'You are a Grandmaster, Harry'
Yeap, did u remember a magic chess in first movie?
Wut he looks nothing like Harry Potter xD
always thought he looked like frodo
After seeing first few games i knew carlsen is goiNg to crush him.
RIP
rip
Thought I'd learn something...
3am

God help you ..Magnus is going to crunch you brother 😹
Fabi not that good at blitz...
Which means he'll have to beat Magnus at 12 games or RIP the dream
ummm, he's one of the top blitz players in the entire world...
"Not that good at blitz"? You do understand what 2800 means, yes? And I doubt very seriously that the dream will go away any time soon. All it takes is for Carlsen to have a bad day or two... entirely possible!!
Tom Walker Its true, he isn't the best Blitz player around but at classical chess he is magical

lol fei li what are you smoking bro i want that shit
"the aggression....it's actually good for him" i just lost it there lol
Screech can play decent bullet. I dig.
I'm a Canadian, I gotta be on Eric's side
That blunders this, this could be worse... Hahahaha Gl fabbi on rapids
"I took his Twix by force"? :'D
It's a reference to big shaq ''Take mans twix by force, send man shop by force''.
Google it
Lol, 11:10:00 "Did Eric just mate himself....I'd really love to see his reaction, chuckle"!! Right!
Hey bro and brahs didn't know we could PnP in chess too. Lol. Eric is good maybe braver (more aggressive) after a few. Came back, good for him. Thx.
1:07:48 me after my third move
Nice one 😂
How did Eric get 14.5 against your 15.5???
He got like 5 against Magnus’ 29
Magnus is best blitz player in the world and Fabi is much better in classical I'm sure he would admit that himself.
Its still a huge issue considering that Tie Breaks are always a possibility.
It's because Eric is really good at blitz. Probably in top 20 list. While Magnus is the best at blitz.
if the world championship goes to tie breaks there is zero chance fabi wins. Fabi is my favorite player and it is no slander to say that he is not in the top ten of the world in fast time controls
Fabi.._..World championship is coming were counting on man!!!!
Given how Hansen - Carlsen goes. This was not a promising sneak peak of that match,.
What about woman?!
If I were a player of chess I would be Fabi I guess
9:13 Fabi begins playing Eric Hansen...and he is streaming on twitch: th-cam.com/video/_xohQZTXuXE/w-d-xo.html

x2, pero por lo que veo, magnuss le va a partir su madre :'v
Juega muy mal a diferencia del carlsen
Al parecer, Carlsen durará un poco más con el título
great,but not enough for being a champion
1:30:00 doesnt Nh3! win the queen?

He won a blitz tournament in Riga
We are Venom!
Compared to other guys at his level he seems way slower
4:25 knight e7 lol
He couldn’t play Ne7. Ne7+ Kh8 Nxc8 then Queen on b3 was hanging.
Fabiano could easily crush Eric and Naroditsky in over the board chess. It's just different online
A check in chess is like a meg in soccer
A very likeable guy but I don't see him winning against Magnus
