Stop Trying To Trade Queens With Me | Botez Gambit Speedrun Part 12

[@ZacWut]

Hikaru: calmly fully down a queen Also Hikaru: "yeah this actually might just be losing though"

[@adaGio7539]

i seriously am concerned about the ideas that hikaru's editor is getting LOL

[@dalmav23]

I'm not keep them coming!

[@azullove979]

This whole speed run has me laughing so hard, "i will make a new queen and sac." Thats next level queen sac.

[@JustJonas]

the funniest part about thazt was his opponent did the same thing so cancels out. I'd say he lost the challenge for that game xD

[@spider853]

@@JustJonas the biggest troll )) He understood the right way to win )

[@NecDraws]

11:01 refuses mate in 1 for the sake of sacrificing his queen.

[@aaaaaa-gq3dv]

And opponent didn't even take.

[@ikhsan4263]

Hahaha... Sac the queen is more important than mate in 1. 😂

[@Name-ru1kt]

Lol and his oppenent traded queens insted of taking with knight then traded them again And keeps trying to trade lol

[@gm2407]

@11:04 I love the eye roll when he your oponent traded Queens rather than take your Queen with the Knight. Makes me laugh every time. Must have been watching the streem dedicating themselves to the trade.

[@priyanshumishra334]

Hikaru's Editor is going Crazy these Days!! 😁😆

[@IAmSplate]

11:02 I love that Hikaru is so committed to sacking his queen that he gives up the mate in 1

[@manciaramisesvincent5335]

I mean Hikaru is so good that his only problem is how to sac a queen

[@tamelnv7048]

LOL

[@user-ch6iv2bn2j]

7:49 I love how him gulping the water synced with the song

[@kermoots9261]

I'm pretty sure I'm better than Hikaru because I don't find it hard to sac my queen at all

[@stevee7774]

🤣 Me too, I don’t even have to try.

[@nuclearcrayons3511]

I've said this before and I will a say it again. Your editor needs a raise 🙌 the guy makes the best thumbnails and intros haha

[@corinnep.7356]

Whoever makes your thumbnails absolutely killed it with this one. Good Job

[@김채현-u4u]

I love this series so much

[@memegazer]

my favorite so far

[@juspreetsandhu8446]

@8:56 - The opponent blunders with Qc5 since Hikaru can take with his knight, after the opponent moves Re8 to attack the knight, and Hikaru just casually goes "Oh dear" - Priceless. Such good content.

[@khayalbagh]

Woah what are the chances

[@juspreetsandhu8446]

@@khayalbagh : Tough to calculate, but I'd say slim for sure.

[@hgservices5572]

I’m blown away and impressed by the very first game! What brilliant play.!!!

8:54 the fabled reverse botez gambit.

[@silentfoxyyy8061]

for some reason the way hikaru says "sac my queen" makes me laugh lmao

[@c2thew156]

Lol Hikaru coulda had checkmate at 10:58 but still followed his queen sack rule

[@dorof3716]

I love how at 11:02 he just passed mate just so he can sac his queen xd

[@dorof3716]

Well semms like he explained it later as well xd

[@laeb08]

I can't with the damn thumbnails 😂. . So creative!

[@bobby_tablez]

I'm actually only here because of that thumbnail. It's perfect, it's beautiful, it's art.

[@PianoGermination]

Easily one of his best thumbnails.

[@_xelua_]

the thumbnail almost made me faint of laughing

[@georghuber7726]

3:06 I think it's funny that Hikaru talks about smurfing when he does it with every speedrun. Of course he is handicapped most of the time but it's still the same thing, especially in the first games of a run.

[@redace4821]

To be fair, Hikaru Speedrun is primarily for content, is not like he do just for the sake of destroying "new" player, I've seen plenty people quite chess just because they lose horrible to someone lower rating

[@artemvolsh428]

If you didn't know, the rating gets back to everyone who played with Hikaru (as I know, he said that on stream I guess)

[@rendezvousonmemorylane]

You say that cause you don't even know why smurfing is wrong. Think about it.

[@some1and297]

19:58 I think here this guy is just being a Chad thinking you mouse-slipped

[@rafaelkloth8974]

A bughouse speedrun together with Levy would be great. :-) Or just a chess960 or crazyhouse speedrun.

[@ronieshi]

I bet the one that is enjoying hikaru's streams the most is his editor and the one that makes the thumbnails.

[@who_am_ii]

11.04 when there's mate in one....hikaru procced to sac his queem for nothing lmao

[@elephantheart9114]

that thumbnail deserves more love

[@daymongray3516]

The look on Hikaru’s face at 11:09 is priceless!

[@daymongray3516]

And 19:58 haha.

[@kariulfsson3684]

Best chess series on YT

[@arc1279]

This thumbnail is a work of art

[@wabc2336]

Hikaru in the first game be like: Here's a free queen, I'll just take your queen a few moves later

[@keejay98195]

Those thumbnails are the funniest shit ever ahahahha

[@alecgravelle]

THE THUMBNAIL IS AMAZING

[@sylvesteruchia5263]

11:03 That moment when you blunder mate in 1.

[@Lois38isere]

Just casually destroying his opponents down a queen while chatting

[@darkrealm3996]

WOOOOO YEAH BABY THATS WHAT I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THAT'S WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT WOOOOOOOO

[@mitchbrook4112]

14:28 what a play

[@msboadas]

Love this gambit

[@chandugadichannel1568]

The last game, the opponent guy went crazy sacrificing his queen for 2 times and still want to play king with a queen by moving it only one square and finally wasting time. A perfect 1200 rated

[@empereurloutre]

Me, a French person when they don't stop talking about Vichy : *concerned face*

[@monkebrainedfish3130]

Ngl your intro is very nastolgic, it feels like im watching a show on disney xd or nickelodeon

[@stodrag2470]

Try to exchange queens despite knight Takes queen is called the Levy gambit.

[@davidgatten1033]

Can't even watch Hikaru for more than 5 minutes without him badmouthing other players

[@mikeboyarsky2255]

WHO MADE THIS COVER IIT"S GENIUS

[@angelosuna150]

Hikaru is the chess warrior

[@waltercfrosenbaum]

I love these videos

[@brunowatras1725]

im actually sad that he beats everyone with a rating 3 times higher than mine and he barely looks at a monitor

[@starrmayhem]

16:10 prove that hikaru is not bobby fisher

[@evankielrolle8807]

The intro was like a spiderman credit scene lol

[@bobgeorge6371]

Sacs queen “this actually might be losing”

[@hgservices5572]

Great intro!

[@musa071]

This guy is trying to trade Queens; he's very weird. lmfao

[@kelvinbennett5634]

It is weird that I look forward to this series, simply for the introduction lol…?

[@arunbaroon-chess6405]

Hikaru legit struggling to sac is queen while im struggling to simply win a game

11:59 Hikaru trying not to laugh.

[@TheAussieRod]

Lol @11:02 Naka missed check mate

[@kaidoChess]

Who makes his thumbnails 😂 that dudes amazing

[@Shome2049]

when you hear the legendary beep of lichess in the end.

[@z483gk]

There must be a punishment for those who's being rude. Mating with the Knight Tower, for example.

[@thoinkingboi]

man the thumbnail got me lol

[@ioanniskleanthous4810]

Hikaru smurfs for every speedrun he does... Claims smurfing is bad....

[@robertwilliams9859]

The opponents get refunded their points, so it's not effecting anyone

[@tarjeiforus7293]

what a guy! i remember not getting a good first impression. I think u might have been comming of a sore loss the first time i saw you, but now, after a few years, even though the whole chess community is compressed of great people, and evn though im norwegian, U might just be my fav chess player

[@franekkrys4763]

People in 1900: we will have a flying cars People in 2022: how to sacrifice my queen?

[@FarisHusaini]

Think most people knew that the person was gonna take with the queen and not with the knight lmao

[@mayankjain04]

7:07 Someone tell my why didn't hikaru take pawn with queen e5 or the free knight by bishop captures on e7

Curious when he'll try Minecraft though....

[@tranatgm1289]

11:01 it's mate at g2

[@PianoGermination]

Yeah but he didn't sack his queen. If he mated the opponent he wouldn't have done the Botez gambit. That's the point of this series.

[@PianoGermination]

You should try to play online chess in Roblox. Your elo will be more than 4,000.

[@PlatypusLLC]

Hahaha awesome thumbnail

[@aaaaaa-gq3dv]

Any chance the opponent from 9:01 - 14:30 was stream sniping? He spent the whole game trying to trade queens (and eventually got it at 11:05 - even though he could have also taken with the knight)

[@Finnspin_unicycles]

I mean the "OhNo_MyBotezGambit" username is very recognizeable, very possible that he was a viewer ( regardless of whether he was "stream sniping" at that moment or just generally knew that he was trying to blunder the queen on purpose).

[@savagge_shorts5685]

The thumbnail 😂

[@billyjuliochysarsectio9114]

11:08 did hikaru miss checkmate in 1 on purpose because he want so sac?

[@dieuha287]

Cheating is bad because he can't compete with a lizard.
