GM Hikaru on 1900s: They Don't Make Em Like They Used To

[@archsys307]

You hit on a massive and startling truth-chess is 99% subconscious, the main point of strategy and tactics training and the reason it takes so many repetitions over and over similar puzzles similar concepts similar games is because that's how you teach your subconscious

[@fredst5636]

Too funny to see Hiakru playing. He just chat, drinks and ohoh, you blundered checkmate. All just so easy.

You should still go for the jerome when they bring the knight out instead, I actually find that i have more success with that, but after you gambit the knight you do d5 then e6 to hit the knights, then bring out the queen with a check. It’s like a delayed Jerome. But idk how well it’d work against higher level players i guess

What an amazing mind he has... Hikaru, any way you could explain your moves a bit so us idiots might learn better ways to think about chess positions? It is insane that you can play so well while having random conversations about politics and gold. Not like you need/take any advice, just wanted to throw that out there.
