I think Hikaru simply has metaphorically speaking less of a mask. Hikaru liked talking about which move was good and not, and he helped Anna, but then she just continued saying to him about being the second or third in the world, you could clearly see that he didn't appreciate this praising in front of everybody from facial reactions, and Anna shouldn't have said it again, just keep it chill simple, talking about the moves or whatever, Anna needs to match the energy sometimes better, when you play someone more chill, you have to also be more chill, Anna, you always have the same energy levels of reactions with all people, so of course you will ran into energy mismatches if you continue like that.

he was crumpy before she asked.

I see all the comments about Hikaru seeming rude to Anna etc. but if you watch Hikaru in his plays he always carries that same expression and demeanour, he isn’t one to chat a lot or shit talk. He’s just focused. And throughout the game I kept seeing him having that slight smile so you can tell he is enjoying himself (though of course this is not even a challenge to him). And he did occasionally tell Anna which moves are good or not. I don’t think we can expect all GMs to be effervescent. Didn’t feel like Hikaru was treating Anna any differently than others. That said I agree that Anna asking if he was number 2 or 3 was unnecessary and repeating it again at the end. And maybe Hikaru could have given more feedback to her at the end to help her improve her game in future and recap some moves - but yeah does seem he wasn’t interested on that end

​@@erinues7._- Hikaru is way more popular in the chess world, there is no need to get introduced to people by Anna. The only one benefiting there would be Anna.

I tune in once in a while when youtube reminds me but it seems as Anna is getting better overtime playing against some of the great chess players. I will say I enjoy the content as it's straight to the point and clean.

She f’d it up with that statement at the end

Enjoyable to watch! You did your best. Kind of know how the game will turn out when one player is thinking aloud and the other is just chilling, playing moves. The audience in the back looked happy to witness the game.

5:59 Why would you ask that when he just played you with 10 seconds? 😭

I see the problem. No beverages.

Loved the way Hikaru called out just numbers and just a game.

Last few seconds were a very polite way of saying: "Run that back!". Good game

Ahh, so this is why everyone’s loves Nakamura?

I love how Fabiano let's her win and then Hikaru just ruthlessly rolls on her lmao what a G

His speed, is asounding. Great focus, doesn't say much except to throw out a couple of moves or opinions that might help his opponent. And wins easily. The guy is pretty amazing!

I mean, I really do think he made some assessment about her "winning" Fabiano and got annoyed with Anna, so he was adversarial with this game.

you see.. think while the opponent thinks.. dontblet your opponent think when it is your turn.

That went exactly as expected. Absolutely not surprise.

You try and deal with fans 24/7. He was annoyed with the question from the outset, because he doesn't want to be seen as a number. Then after the game he wanted to emphasize 'it's no big deal, it's just a game.'. I bet if you ever play Hikaru, ask him about his favorite whiskey, then subsequently play something so weird or funny, the conversation probably is a lot different.
