One Hour of Hikaru Explaining Aggressive Openings

[@edjletedjlyeet4208]

When you think you got your opponent stumped but he’s just showing chat his plate of fish

[@armyguy196]

Yep, the classics: shrimpfish and calimarifish

[@johnr.4992]

The fact you can narrate and play is almost a form of art. Don't let em knock you off your square. 😂

[@woody442]

I'd say the fact that Hikaru probably can beat any mediocre statistician while narrating his adoption casually is very interesting.

[@zedoisxis]

​@@woody442? What the hell are you saying lmao. Speak civilized not barbaric

[@MARKOzekoZECEVIC]

Kramnik might be 500 elo in statistics but he is a GM in doubling down.

[@miorioff]

World first in being a senile old man

[@gab.4252]

Lol

[@aaro7788]

Interesting 😂

[@rodrigo9293]

yeah, like he’s 500 in statistics, but he’s GM in chess

[@TheBowtiedBandit]

Underrated comment. Although, you would think that someone who is as strong as him at chess would be able to calculate the possible string of events from his initial post XD

[@tomsmith4542]

Naka I am a 40 yo dude, and I met both of you and Kramnik 14 years ago in the first London Chess Classic in 2009. I also have your Bullet chess book autographed. I remember you played against Kramnik in London, and I never thought it would come to this. Vlad seems very grumpy old man, even though he is only 48 yo !!

[@neerajnongmaithem392]

Their is also a photo of naka and Vlad enjoying a game of chess over some drinks after dinner. How low we have fallen since then

[@tiletapper4ever]

He beat all of his opponents in this hour. Interesting.

[@freeEnd_]

😂😂 I mean... i could beat everyone except the 1900 guy probably, but hackeroo is cheating to do so

[@cuh720]

We must investigate

[@itsasecret2298]

Most of his opponents were 1000 lower rated elo lol

[@tiletapper4ever]

@@itsasecret2298 and 2900s are 400 points lower than him but kramnik says that he needs to cheat, or else he can't beat them

[@marcuscook5211]

Yes he is definitely cheating. This is not news.

I love all the support Hikaru has given to the Pineapples over the years

33:00 I went to eye-surgery that used a femtosecond laser to cut the corneal flap about 10 years ago. Literally the only thing that surgeon did was to turn the flap away that was cut by a computer and then another computer program did the actual eye-surgery with an excimer laser. After that the surgeon turned the flap back. As long as the surgeon doesn't drop items on the eye, this technique is as close to fully computer implemented operating as possible. In addition, the operation is done one eye at a time and you can verify that you didn't go blind before the another eye is operated. Be warned that your vision has a lot of haze for the first day - you can see small details far away but it's like your vision had heavy anti-glare display surface effect at the same time. The bad part is that the edges of the flap will wrinkle a bit if correction you need is big enough and that will cause more or less star-burst problems when your pupil is wide open. If you can find a clinic that can cut big enough corneal flap. I think my operation used about 8 mm flap diameter and I would say that if it had use 11 mm flap the results would have been perfect even with fully open pupil. The clinic did measure my wide open pupil diameter before the operation but that's only about the size of the flap but that measurement doesn't consider wrinkling of the edge of the flap (which happens because part of the eye is removed wiht the excimer laser and the corneal flap can no longer use the same shape and will wrinkle at the edges a bit. The biggest problem for me was installing the mechanical device that keeps your eye lids open at all time into correct place. I think that thing touched the surface of my left eye while it was being installed and that caused slight double vision for my left eye for a couple of months. I would have never went for the operation using microceratomy, though. That method has pretty poor results even if you're lucky.

[@Perdu...]

Yeah, they're not doing the surgery right in front of the entrance for people to just casually walk in and distract the surgeons lol

[@LuisEn20005]

18:58 Hikaru's Neuron Activated

[@atle5153]

That move is literally a King Sac xD, Hikaru knew his opponent is blunder Lmao

[@handlesucks509]

16:19 Congratulations! You shocked Hikaru!

[@magiklam2991]

fr that's the most "tf was that????" look ive ever seen

[@Teo117]

Honestly, I can appreciate your openness to your defeats. If you hadn’t told me you lost, before the round (at the very start of video), I would’ve simply thought you won. I respect it ☺️

[@gourdtube]

yo Hikaru is a absolutely insane. It makes me feel smart for being able to follow like 85% of his nonstop rambling. I know people like Darcss are going to watch this like "are you kidding me, he wasn't even paying attention to the game."

[@Sarah-kz3uf]

We love you Hikaru!!! You're an amazing chess player, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. It's not true!! We support you!

[@dg_yorick6814]

lmao if the computer-brain interface ever becomes a thing, you could literally do a TEMPEST attack to read someone's mind (A tempest attack is more or less when you use RF to pick up leaking signals/emissions from electronics, e.g. you can pick up the signals traveling through an HDMI cable between a computer and a monitor to physically see what's showing up on their monitor, or transmissions from a SATA cable to read what's on their hard drive without ever having physical access to their pc. It can all be done remotely). All that smart home/cyber-wear stuff sounds cool to laymen but there's no shot anyone who knows the first thing about security will ever touch them

[@Sarcasticc_weeb]

I know

[@shabaazkhan5229]

32:03 Bro definitely watched Final destination and got traumatised by it 😅.

[@barrywuthrich8530]

When Hikaru says 'fossil', is he referring to winning a piece through a discovered check?

[@Acradus]

No, he means its “buried” (fossilized), will take a lot of effort, or straight up can NOT be moved. An easy way to be fossilized as a piece is to be pinned like what you describe though.

[@doh-nc8ku]

Yes

what music did he have on? probably it is the magic power behind Hikaru, has anyone acquired that secret?

22:10 the pride and rarity of being called a genius will also disappear which i find it sad and disappointing because it will take away the beauty of natural intelligence although my gen isn't very bright or something to be proud of and i think tiktok and vapes are the cause of the decline in the average IQ every year.

[@pinskiller9914]

@@Joe-og6br yeah the calculations are insane. opponent makes a random move and you get owned ha ha. especially in Blitz which I play mostly

[@nbassasin8092]

@@Joe-og6br learn system based openings that you can play against 99% moves that your opponent can make, rather than niche ones (and usually even those 1% cases are something that is either bad or easy to learn). London for example, Kings indian to a degree and etc. (Id say catalan but Ive heard its not as easy to play for beginners so maybe try it but maybe skip that one) another tip I have (as a fellow beginner, I found these 2 to work for me) is to learn couple openings that are very similair to each other, so you can adapt them, I like to play Scandinavian against e4, but if opponent doesnt take or does something wierd, you can always conver it into caro khan (you can do this with many different opneings, point being dont go into niche and complex openings as beginner)
