You won’t believe it even after seeing it!
Ben Finegold would not be happy with this guy
The second game was nice
White should have resigned once he lost his queen like that smh 🤦🏽♂️
1:22 he wasnt check mated?
Someone needs to carry a conversation with this guy and distract him ! He’s too good
I like how he is so sharp, cool and careless during the streams, but when it is time to have a face-to-face interaction, he is shy and hesitant like a little girl
I wonder…if you are at this level…how is it possible to become even better.
What board are they playing on
Ohh bro that second game wit the old guy was awesome
Many blitz players make the same mistake. If you have 5 minutes, use them. Guys here are playing as if they're playing bullet.
@4:40-42 Why do you think white didn’t used the queen a3 to take the rook b4?
Weird. I can smell the smoke from second guy's cigarette 🤔
Grandmaster vs. a common casual player in fast chess.
How silly is that. But it doesn't matter, because despite the huge skill gap, both are still human.
Hikaru playing IRL: Just vibing with other players
Hikaru playing online: Opens with H4
Anyone else notice the pieces are set up on the wrong sides
Reminds me of that scene where Hikaru's searching for Sai after he disappears and plays intimidatingly fast to get the game over with so he can go check the other cemetery.
nice game
Yeah I saw that knight move. I'm pretty sure when you're playing if you're not planning for that then it's easier to miss.
Asians and their superiority complex. 😂
idc what anyone says, 2nd guy played the best out of all
Hikaru could have lost had the smoker played Ba4
The greatest board game ever.
The second guys endgame was full of hopes and dreams “I got 16 second I could do it”😂
What makes him a “hustler”? Just curious.
Pretty impressive that Don grinds out a seemingly quite credible game
yeah Hikaru is pretty good but he can lose. Just not often.
Once he lost his Queen it was nothing else to see
I'd like to play Hikaru
Just stating tge obvios but as hikaru sits there we all know in his head is bishop e3 pawn c4 take takes takes takes takes kniggt d3
Where is this cafe located?
Second game, white guy can be proud of himself.
that 2nd guy actually held his own surprisingly took him to an endgame at least, although a very difficult one to win but was only down a couple pawns.
Man said “congrats Don for having the biggest missed opportunity” 💀💀
He didn’t “destroy” him, he held up pretty good! Good game.
Nerds doing nerd things is funny to watch.
I couldn't stand playing someone while they're smoking🤢
Knight takes pawn on left side.
The guy smoking cigarettes is just disrespectful for smoking while playing Hikaru. I don't mind people smoking, but at least have some integrity.
Not easy top play against Hikaru. I'd love even the chance. He's way too strong, even at 1 minute, even without looking at the board.
i think my ex might be a great future chess player 'cuz she can calculate "what if" fights all day
just by not getting mated in the first 10 moves is already impressive. I would fall in every possible trap allowed by the opening 😆
Why doesn’t anyone say “check” anymore?
Why did the fist guy give up his queen so fast😭😭
Second guy missed a free bishop at the end as well, he really had a fighting chance
Fuckin Smurf’s always running the game
Hikaru needs a chess anime
I don't even play chess.
IS SSUNDEE ON THE BACK????
Anyone know what shirt Hikaru is wearing?
ui hope the background noises arnt your friends
