[@112233JORDAN]

It really does seem like Hans has more brilliant moves than most players, even at the top. Seems like he's more willing to take chances rather than playing safe moves. Probably why his results are less consistent at times, but when he wins, it seems genius-level.

Hans would probably still walk away from this with the idea that everyone including Levy is out for his demise, but Levy really just cares about the chess… and the views, but no sh*t, that’s the life of making content. Nothing but praise and entertaining commentary regarding Hans and his clear prowess, despite all of the drama and the accusations. Chess is Chess regardless of who is playing it, and like your local weatherman, GothamChess is here to track the storm. Really hope Levon starts to show up in this tournament as he’s easily one of my favorite Chess players, but I’d be satisfied seeing Fabiano defend his title.
