This is my favorite speedrun 😂 something about low 1000 rated players trying to premove on a super GM unknowingly and lose all their pieces because of it is almost satisfying in a way 😂

@@Soer8808 pretty much, still annoying though lol. I guess they will learn eventually

[@RMichaelHimself]

Yep, agreed. My favorite point in his speedruns is when he gets into the 1500-1900 range (people just above my rating). Something so satisfying about watching him steamroll these guys after using bad openings to give them confidence 😂 The upper/mid 1000s are *just* good enough to have confidence in their skills and have that competitiveness... yet they’re still bad enough to where I can understand their moves and relate to their pain 😂

[@Soer8808]

@@RMichaelHimself I'm 1500-1600 rated player and I can testify to this. Unless you are smart at attacking, I find that Its easy to accidentally weaken one's own position when trying to play aggressive..

Are you playing 200 elos only?😂

[@RMichaelHimself]

Yeah I have multiple games with 95+ accuracy, even in games I lose. It can happen when I’m down big material and the position is simple, and most of my moves are forced or obvious. I can get steamrolled and still end up with 97% accuracy.

[@MrAM4D3U5]

LOL at Hikaru touting FTX Crypto here 😂 good judgement!!

[@linkdd62]

At 9:05, for black is Bishop D5 a good defense? You protect the mate, attack the queen (who has to move) and leaves two pieces hanging for white (the knight and the bishop). So after queen to C8 check, black king moves, queen takes rook, and still two piece hanging for white. EDIT: nevermind, stockfish propose Queen C8, King E7, Knight F5, and then black's position crumbles. In fact, stockfish says that for black Queen takes Bishop is the best move.

I love how one of the comments says "I would never dedicate my life to a board game" like I know right? What a bunch of nerds. Hikaru's worth 50 million dollars. What are you worth?

[@countofst.germain6417]

Yes and how about the millions of other people that won't become one of the greatest players in the world? For 99.999999999% it will be a complete waste of time to dedicate their life too. Its a fun game and helps keep you sharp, but unless you had a 1500 Elo as a child or are a 1 in a 100 million freak, you aren't going to achieve any form of success in chess

At 18:54 how is that checkmate? Newer to chess. So this is probably why I'm confused. But doesn't the black knight just take queen?

[@riccardomassari1781]

As you can see rn black is in check and the only legal move would be to play Nc7, so hikaru noticing it, premoved Qxc7 which would be in this case checkmate
