I don't play chess anymore, I just watch Hikaru, it's less stressful 😂.

[@Lunehardt]

I know right? I barely play too, it's so stressful

[@nomer440]

I’d say at this point it’s more stressful

[@kopai5732]

I agree

[@elliottsheerin]

This is so true 😂

[@plottwistaftercredits3144]

lol I'm glad I'm not the only one. Losing to 1600s in bullet absolutely kills me.

After this speedrun we'll definitely see the Hippo+Queen combo at top level.

[@MasterInHD]

You mean, Hippo + Queenless* lol

[@geometricart7851]

Also don't forget Naka has been playing the hippos for like 15+ something years at 1 0. So he knows what he can get away with...

[@Dextline]

Hess is all about the hippo as well. Only at half the speed Hikaru does it.

Everyone in the chat who kept saying Hikaru had a fork in the first game with Ne7, you're wrong.. lol Knight on c6 was guarding e7... Hence why Hikaru took the Knight with his Rook... Why does the chat think they can see obvious forks better than a super GM? lol

[@immortalfootballer26]

Can't get enough of these Botez Gambit videos!

[@AlmostM]

Hikaru's progress has slowed a bit vs these 2200s, but he's still winning an impressive number of games. The ability to make things complicated and win games on time is really coming in clutch.

[@dariusd2003]

As an Itachi fan, I had to watch and like the video.

[@WasyaWasya10]

22:35 Hikaru almost drew in the last game, if he had played d3 instead of taking the knight, rival would have had to put in perpetual check. Damn that was close, even at this high level Hikaru can play without a queen.

[@geometricart7851]

um he's mating 2200s without a queen at BLITZ! Yeah of course he can. To give decent 2200+ players credit though I saw many here just lose to flag in winning positions. LOL

[@elwyn14]

When it's in your rating range you can really feel the opponent's emotions. It's a big advantage for hikaru the opponent not knowing who they're playing, they get careless until something hits like in the last game c6 then hiki plays b6, and all of a sudden the opponent knows it's a monster on the other side of the board. Biggest advantage the 2250's have over the 1900's is they spot the class of the moves and sit up and concentrate much quicker.

[@iTzMaJorTaK]

No one mentioning the absolutely clutch thumbnail?

[@hasanalifayzan]

The “like” on this is for the Itachi and Sasuke reference….

[@JDescafeinado]

As an end for this series, would you play with same odds against other players like Levy or Rey Enigma?

[@harrison9890]

Dude they’d both crush him without a queen let’s not be silly.

[@lipschitzlyapunov]

LMAO Levy is an IM, there's not a world where Hikaru would win

[@anissbenthami]

Imagine being up a queen on move 5 or 6 but trade everything and push pawns instead of going for checkmate. Those 2000s are annoying 😒

[@THESPACEMANshorts]

2.2k without queen, this guy is insane!

[@chinmay6249]

Is this an old video? Was this streamed before Hikaru Moved to Florida?

[@copyninja_03]

The Thumbnail is Awesome.

[@No-cw1ps]

The trap Hikaru set at 1:58 is disgusting. Bishop g3 wins the queen if the queen takes the "free" pawn. I would have snaptake the pawn.

[@plostyle786]

This is like watching MJ play. You don't know what hes up to, how he does it, but you can see the domination, the toying with opponents and the results.

Ah, Botez Gambit.. the secret technique of the Uchiha Clan

[@Compassiron1]

‘A knife on F5 is worth at least a queen’ proceeds to put his bishop there instead… then goes Knight F5 and immediately retreats like a Frenchman. It’s always a rollercoaster following Hikarus thoughts!

[@lipschitzlyapunov]

He put a bishop there so it could be recaptured by a knight so it could stay there permanently

[@naphackDT]

Of course it's worth at least that much. What would serve as better motivation for you to resign? The opponent having a queen or them violently stabbing a knife into the board and staring at you menacingly?

Did anyone else catch at 13:53 black plays Bishop e7, Hikaru says he shouldn’t have allowed knight g3, but black plays bishop back to h4 and Hikaru is like, “of course he finds bishop h4; very annoying.”

[@jasoncurtis241]

Almost first lol

[@greennin3560]

hehe starting at 8:43 Hikaru set up a double attack on the King and the Rook and proceeded to talk about literally every other piece on the board marking things and drawing arrows on the right and left. I love when he does this. Opponent didn't fall for it though this time lol

[@GarrettEderer]

The song reminds me of Drake and Josh.

[@11pupona]

The funny thing is that in the last game, computer says that the position is equal!!, @22:37 the only saving move was d3!! (and not Rxd2), opening the space for the black bishop!, the threat of g2 and Bc5+ is just too much and white has nothing better than a perpetual. Any other move loses because of the strong threat of the queen and bishop targeting f7

[@kush9030]

Sharingan reveal at 9000 subs lmao

[@diederikvalsap4242]

I would love a Botez bullet speed run!

[@z0uLess]

the concept of elo hell is such an interesting concept, as there are different norms and metagames in different rankings that some individuals can be stuck at getting through. some people are confident that everyone can climb rating, but this confidence is itself a self-fulfilling prophesy. the concept, as the name suggest, goes to the core thinking of the sociology of religion and challenge our perceptions of what belief really is.

[@Epyxoid]

He can still trade his queen for a rook in the middle game, can't he?

[@rggndfw]

Hikaru says it's not in the spirit of the Gambit since Botez's queen was actually the first piece off the board besides a pawn.

[@Epyxoid]

@@rggndfw Oh I missed that. Thanks for clearing that up for me!

why doesnt he sac it for a pawn and rook?
