[@joshuarovinelli8597]

my day is significantly better because there's a new james canty video

[@JamesCantyIII]

Let’s gooooo! 🔥

[@Haphazart]

Just found out about James, really good, great delivery, loving the content !

[@tikeplayz4480]

Nothing tops the game against Gelfand!

[@bgmarshall]

Yeah, but I've seen it in like 4 different videos now

[@trex5863]

When you are up against Hikaru, you have a "Knightmare" .

[@nademmabrouk2654]

"Let's get that off the screen this is a family channel" looooool 8:40

[@JamesCantyIII]

🤣🤣🤣

[@NecDraws]

Hikaru justifying why he's a super GM.

[@epicwolves125]

James got that high quality camera

[@JamesCantyIII]

🔥🔥🔥

[@arcg2146]

"Oh let's take the knight, well night night" 😭😹😹😹

[@jds373]

Great energy and analysis from James as always. Just want to apologize for my previous post which I've deleted where I *incorrectly* suggested that James got the name of a variation wrong when I was, in fact, the one who was mistaken

[@brhend]

Another excellent cast by the amazing mr canty. Thank you for your gift.

[@JamesCantyIII]

Thanks buddy! 💯

[@abhijitsarkar7257]

that game with boris gelfand was sick

[@goodlandcub1461]

Thank you, Mr. Canty, for making chess commentary so accessible and exciting!

[@JamesCantyIII]

No problem! 💯💯💯

[@massuchess]

James Canty recreating the conversations on the board makes it so interesting.

[@paddymac7303]

Just found your channel James - great stuff and I look forward to seeing more of your content in the future 👍

[@rasen7721]

next time: "Carlsen's Top 5 Queen Sacrifices on g2 as after playing the Caro-Kann against Vishy Anand"

[@trex5863]

Looks like I am betraying my love towards Simon Williams

[@bhargavabhat9227]

I've been playing a bit of the king's Indian these days, this video hopefully helps learn it better! Thanks

[@Levi_1834]

This man has the rapper look and the bars Should be a rapper😅

[@JamesCantyIII]

🤣🤣🤣

[@084surajrao6]

"But I'm not a rapper"

[@ShabazzTBL]

I think the market for a rapping chess player might be kinda narrow haha.

[@chrisbeaudoin9818]

@@ShabazzTBL just wait until you hear Young ELO

[@yeetymcyeetersson1639]

4:15 if two of your pieces are hanging, offer a third, cuz when it’s your opponents turn, they can only take one.

[@krazychessplaya]

Love the games in the KID. Canty with the fire explanations 🔥🔥

[@saryjou2793]

The game against Gelfand was chosen by Hikaru himself as his greatest game ever

[@daviddurbin3249]

James you are one of my favorite commentators. Enjoyed the video

[@JamesCantyIII]

Thanks David! 💯

[@ahmadelhamshary62]

beautiful games by Hikaru and great selection and commentary by Canty

[@zeptyanra5759]

great explanation as always

[@juantellez7858]

That was awesome 😎 thanks!

[@sebastianmorales9787]

Gotta love this pal

[@Abhishek-150]

9:32 Aauchhh! How's that happens?? Now you're losing losing from completely winning.. Story of my most games 😭😭

[@isabitoch420]

Hey Canty if you’re reading this. I love your the way you analyse these games. You’re really entertaining to watch, keep up the good work!!

[@svival6916]

"This is a family channel"😂 Best line 8:30

[@RichCoppensRCKenpo]

Great video thanks.

[@benediktkranz6801]

Love the commentary by James Canty

[@JamesCantyIII]

🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯

[@vincentduhamel7037]

I'm rewatching this just for the commentary.

[@leafairicsun3654]

watching hikaru highlights is like watching barry sanders highlights circa 96

[@trex5863]

I request more videos with NM James Canty III.

[@arcg2146]

Nice commentary 👏👏

[@harshitbandi4579]

i love his rhymes

[@JamesCantyIII]

🔥🔥🔥

[@whitepony8443]

The strongest black opening with amazing moves

[@kurtchapman]

"This is a family channel!" LOL

[@zarron221]

Great job Mr. Canty Shalom ani, brother

[@JamesCantyIII]

Thank you! 💯

[@julianosuzuki]

Please fix the title, king’s indian attack is another opening.

[@malusmundus-9605]

That's gonna be a strong move

[@rickjames1062]

Good job NM James Canty! You make a good commentor/analyst/presenter. I'm an old geezer and its just a bit fast for me. 62 years old and playing since age 5, and I still cant keep up with you young whippersnappers!

[@joshuabuena8049]

The real star here is GMCanty. Oh my lord, the verbal prowess of that guy!

[@okarinyuki]

I don't know if the white opponent moves Qe2 in 16:27, does it lead to a draw?

[@charleshayden7408]

awesome!!!!!!

[@phatvo9269]

Top 5 comeback

[@marcusbuhas6562]

Without seeing the continuation,my guess is Bb8+ (4:12)

[@trex5863]

2:29 I saw this move and 4:30 this one 😂. Maybe I am infected with the Nakamura virus.

[@strikercool911]

He is the king's indian true king, didn't know that about him until i started playing Nf6 against d4

[@trex5863]

@@strikercool911 absolutely he truly knows how to utilise king's indian defense completely

[@mdnaez9945]

You look like a game character, Carl GTA5

[@chefblundard2051]

Diggin that hat

[@JamesCantyIII]

🔥🔥🔥

[@Jimbo-yn4fh]

James looks like he's from a video game lol

[@hexashadowdragon6707]

This guys is a pun jesus, better pray to him i wanna get the holiness of puns

[@OJ9779]

So in other words, do the opposite of what my brain says hang every piece and win? lol Great video Hikaru is amazing

[@aaronporche6820]

but he never plays out the end game there are so many moves left

[@eikkeeh]

that is why he is barbaric at chess. KID allows hikaru to demonstrate his aggressive tactical computations

[@thatcringelord]

Imagine a pro opening so popular somebody has a top 5 on it what about queen's indian?

[@muruganandankanagaraj4510]

I found the last one

[@magnuscarlsen1934]

Decen5.

[@FN-4028]

Nice

[@ashishfrancis1492]

Hikaru is the king maybe he will not be so succesfull he maybe hated any way he is the real king

[@itsaj2109]

Are you sure that Hikaru is a human !?

[@tfewald01]

Please correct the title, so it doesn't come up on KIA searches.

[@cubecomber9162]

I found most of the moves does this make me a grandmaster 😂

[@Domancave]

I doubt he cares

[@DamonLeo1]

Unfortunately this is mistitled. There's a big difference between the KID and the KIA.

[@ourdailybread8874]

Well the opening is kings Indian defense but they’re attacking

[@dazey856]

It’s not the kings Indian attack but kings Indian attacks just saying his king Indians defense attacks

[@moose2151]

“Big boy move from a big fella.” Hikaru is 5’4 130 lb

[@fivehundrediq5212]

Hikaru used to be a serious chess player, now he’s a twitch clown

[@peskenis]

I literally don't even care.

[@TheAlmlksam1]

I hate to criticize but this guy doesn’t explain thoroughly the moves and just yabs the moves.

[@keshavsaraogi3615]

Get GingerGM back for the commentary

[@KanishkBammi]

First

[@LeventK]

🆗

[@tfewald01]

KIA or KID? Looks like the wrong title.

[@daniel96v29]

"Decent" player

[@nehakaushal6620]

GM simon William is the best grandmaster and ask him to make this video.

[@asriel522]

This video makes everyone except hikaru Nakamura looks so bad at chess
