"up a clean pawn here..." "yeah im gonna go ahead and mark this as a win"

[@maple6894]

At GM Level, being up a pawn is the game, they are good at forcing endgames with a pawn up then they queen it

@Adam Demo_Fighter whats l3eeez ?

[@VladimirTheAesthete]

Funny how he is so good he still managed to stalemate despite blundering his queen like this.

[@nemeczek67]

I wonder if ten moves into the game, Hikaru's opponents feel that something is off.

[@martinet1985]

they're definitely suspicious.

@5:21 Hikaru offered a rematch to that guy and got rejected. i wonder what things i would do to get that opportunity to play him just once!

[@brisclan7813]

I love watching him just absolutely destroy 2200s like wtf he's TOO GOOD!?

[@ericpetersen8155]

“Clown Pusher” is not in urban dictionary “. We mite have a new term. History is being made....

[@dualpisces6413]

it is actually.

[@colmcq]

It is. It means autistic/dumb/repetitive. Named after those toy clowns you push over and they just bounce back up again.

Yeah that would be cool! But he's too good for that!, he is busy playing top-tournaments and having fun with chess in other ways..... i think he would be bored making videos for mostly education purposes..... especially when there's so many other channels out there that does exactly that!..... :)

[@youssefkraiemNY]

Any source for the music in the background ? Maybe a Spotify playlist ?

[@chessbaeninety-four8337]

There's a spotify playlist for the stream on twitch but the music here is purchased from a service that provides music that's not copyrighted for youtube.

In chess, greed can be 'good' for real, and benign too and that's why, lol. It's just a game. Good games as usual. Thx.

[@jerrythecat811]

Super cool musics btw i wish i could find em

[@turtle207]

Hate to draw vs clownpushers

[@michaelbaker9347]

@ 12:37 Whats wrong with Nd7 stopping the mate on F8? if trades happen, rook defends F8

[@PNL1992]

Just a glance, Nd7 is still losing badly After Nd7 White can go Nxe6! (You blocked the bishop with your knight) Black has 3 legal moves, two lead to mate in one or two (Kh6 is meet with Qh4#, Kg8 Qf7 Kh8 Qg7) IDK how Kh8 would play out, but it’s losing at least the knight and the bishop for a Knight.

[@rangerroe3739]

Naka, hope you are clownpushing through your next tournament. Show them GMs what a clown pusher really is

[@MrKULVIS]

when he makes mistakes hes "hallucinating ", im just a moron

[@rtm309]

so basically you played those games in one day, right? and then upload it part to part(?)

How can you play so well around 1200/1600 and not be perma reported for cheating? I as a 1400 pleb happens to have good days where i can play decent chess and i'm called cheater/reported each time i do so xD

@Zarion 11 When lauching new games i had kind of a pop-up from Chess.com saying that their cheating team were examining my recent games. I've never been banned fortunately, i guess they have tools to detect that a crappy player having some good games isn't a bandit lol

[@mattheww8999]

Too much chess is bad for you. And yeah that’s exactly why at the end he’s seeing things. Sometimes I can marathon play 3-5 hours mix of fast and slow blitz and not miss a beat if I’m smoking weed. But close to the climax of my games my mind sees what it wants to see when my brain starts turning itself off little by little lol and then the delusional lobe takes control. Cant blame the weed there fwiw to all the people that never smoked it or maybe tried one puff and got wrecked for like 9 hours lol. And just wanna cherry pick on a post. That said , it’s not in our best interest marathon play in a habit if you know what’s good for you. Take a break and do something productive when you get tired and tell your friends to F off you got better things to do than stare at a chess board. My thoughts on this.. 🍻
