    ROBERT HESS IS INCREDIBLE. Guy has a stockfish engine in his brain.
  • I really think it's great how you pull this off. I haven't been in chess very long, but it's great to see so many competent people in one spot.
  • Chad Magnus >walks into tournament >doesnโ€™t lose a single match >wins the tournament >calls the tournament boring
  • @mboxblues7576
    Magnusโ€™ complaints about the format are spot on. the format rewards draws & it sucks
  • @vampirewilde
    Hikaru has described himself as the Andy Roddick of chess. So true
  • @maxfish4270
    Nice event but why not like Jovanka commentate the Division II series in some form, not complete full time control start to finish but in some form?
  • @ikhwanwahab4755
    Trivial trivia - Knight is the only piece on the board that cant move to same color square in two consecutive move.
  • It's all comes to Magnificent Congratulations honourable GM Hikaru Nakkamura as well. Both delivered impressive effort. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ™
  • Magnus was so calm and cool all the time, Hikaru was so emotional. Great part of the game is keeping grounded and centered no matter what. When two players are of similar strength that decides.

    I love how Kaja can't quite pronounce armageddon.
  • @babasemka
    Oh, and by the way, the score is 3-1, not 2.5-1.5
  • @ShabazzTBL
    Itโ€™s crazy looking at their record against each other considering that recently Hikarus record has been much better against Magnus
