Hikaru just showed exactly how to create an opening move from white. his first ten moves are perfect every single piece is double or triple protected and the line is incredible. obviously mid game and end game strategy are important and a lot of other good moves happen. but just look at the first 10 moves in minutes 18-19 and you understand why the guy is a grandmaster and ranked 1st or 2nd in the world and won the us 5 times. its hard to attack his side of the board because he's not reacting he's attacking while simultaneously defending. solid try though botez

Try watching it stoned it’s an experience man

[@Matthew-bu7fg]

I wish she'd have offered a draw after the first move

[@Belnick6666]

why does it look like Hikaru is toying with good chess players ?

[@skettycat0409]

0:02 Maximum disrespect to Hikaru and Magnus

[@maelstrom57]

17:29 when you're in zugzwang after 12 moves

[@altavelmcnamara]

Alex: Yeah, so I’m destroying the GMs. Hikaru: Let me introduce myself.

[@Kjleed13]

While Alex was nervous, Hikaru was literally messing with sponsor banners on his screen. 😂

[@mrconfused2202]

the panic in her scream tho

[@J3rr3LL]

16:27 AB1: Why do I hear boss music? GMHikaru: They call me Hikaru.

[@FD-mz1id]

i can already feel hikaru humming the melody and moving his head to the melody and reading chat while making 99 accuracy moves. the only time he seriously looked up the celing was the move at 18:06 (or he was just distracted from chat). you can also see how nervous she got when the game started.

[@SoB_626]

That was really impressive, beating a 2600 like that. Good games!

[@shaileshrana7165]

Suddenly I feel good about my 25% accuracy

[@abdubatirovich7743]

While your opponent has 20% accuracy

[@chesster5981]

0:30 lol he’s the try hard for playing theory when ur who career revolves u learning theory at a younger age 😂

[@killerso_0138]

She was making a sarcastic comment. Its all in good fun

[@johnneville1760]

When Alex wasn’t distracted by the chat or shook by Hikaru, she was playing some awesome chess

[@RandomPerson-fg1jf]

Honestly that'd be my reaction if I had to play Hikaru too.

[@maxwellmerkel2537]

Ya it’s pretty accurate

[@matthewlu150]

6:20 holy shit, I haven laughed out loud in so long.

[@ashrock1990]

The first GM played bad. Hikaru can beat her eyes closed. He’s that good.

[@Okidata29]

I think he did actually.

[@prajwalkrishnabhat5539]

I mean he's not no.1 blitz and bullet player in the world for nothing

[@zonixtv480]

16:08 has checks when white queen moves from e8 to c6 taking over the black pawn

[@killerso_0138]

But it would be completely pointless and a blunder. Qc6 Pc6, whatever move next, black Qh2#

[@danetportal]

"Ha-ha! Trick you bitch!" I don’t even know which is worse: saying it sincerely or deliberately pretending to be someone who can say this after winning in game.

[@bloodshotwr6303]

I watch hikaru play on streams but seeing/ facing him is completely a different scene. you’re face while facing hikaru is absolutely exploded😂
