Im 2400 and i confirm

Hikaru literally outsmarted Stockfish at a low depth for a few moves against Pinhas26! Stockfish evaluated his knight sac a mistake! Then a few seconds later, an inaccuracy and then soon it gotten the brilliant symbol as it realizes Hikaru's plan of passed pawn a few moves later and if not, the bishop on f6 is VERY strong even though opponent is up a full piece! AND Rook h4 is a an epic move going for checkmate (top engine move) rather than sacrificing a second knight which is the second choice of the engine

God I love watching this guy play and explain chess. It’s beyond awesome

I feel so bad to 1600-1700. It's like a 600 elo against Hikaru.

Sensei keeps getting better - both inspiring and frightening

hot damn! At the end of video Hikaru speed was so sick. speed and accuracy. Insta punishing every bad move of opponents

People need to understand that one move blunders are not one Move at all. There is a lot that leads up to it. Pressure all over the board. Superior pieces and a lot of board control just to name some examples. I can make any 1500 blunder pieces on command after a few moves just because when you pressure and control everywhere it's hard to find squares that don't allow tactics where your pieces can't be taken. The 1600 don't play bad against Hikaru. It just looks like they do because he makes them Blunder.

@@bee2690 BS. I would ask for a rematch with a player like Hikaru, or any titled player. And I am not alone. The best lessons you can get are in the form of losses to better players. You learn and grow more from losing to Hikaru than you would from a thousand wins over weaker players. Value them if you want to get better. Get angry and run if you want to stay mediocre.

Im watching him mate without even flinching and I’m still missing what just happened 😂 I’m new to the world of chess but there’s still a lot to learn

Thanks Hikaru, you're helping me realize I'm bad

That isnt what happens at all. They make exactly the same blunders, but people at 1600 don't see it as a blunder because they're too busy thinking about how not to lose their own pieces

Bro 😂😂😂 You get stuck behind the wall the white walkers coming. Priceless.

23:28 that was a truly underrated reference on the fly.

l get demolished by 1200 players . 1600 players are already at upper intermediate-advanced level . Seeing Hikaru simply no diff them like whooping annoying kid's ass is absolutely brutual and satisfying to watch .

@lenhadoraposentado3520

Good perception. The fork looks good, but White has a defensive resource which is after Nc2 they play Qe2 attacking the black queen which, at the moment, is undefended. Causing Black to force the queen exchange and White captures with the rook that was threatened by the black knight. If Black doesn't change the queen at that moment, the knight on c2 has fallen. So what was supposed to be tactical black became tactical white. Incredible, right?

You almost said the dingle berry variation and didn’t flinch 😂

Hikaru makes it look easy that's all

Amazing honestly mind blowing

2700 GM taking it on 1600's players feels like an adult man beating up on small 6 year old kids..:-) doesnt look like a fair fight, more rather like a sadist enjoying his advantage....:-))

@Disentropic1

10 ай бұрын

After f5, look at black's weak light squares. White's bishop on c4 is dominant along the diagonal facing black's king and black's light square bishop is crippled. As NTL said, a future Qh5 is one way to emphasize the weak light squares near the black king and there's nothing black can do to fix it. If white attacks correctly from here he should win. If your question was about Nf2, black plays Qh5 threatening Qh7 mate and if h6 then simply Nxf7 and black has to play Rxf7, down already an exchange and a pawn with a raging attack continuing. Black has no chance in the resulting position. I'm rated ~2150 otb btw

I'm still looking forward to watching hikaru's oscar wiining movie "legendary openings"...

hikaru casually smurfin 💀💀. nerf this guy immediately

My favorite gm

Hikarus opponents are expecting someone with their level of calculation so they get smoked when they try to match his time usage (which they have to try to match cuz it’s blitz) If they knew it was Hikaru they would know to take their time more and they wouldn’t be making as many blunders (especially the premove ones)
