GM Hikaru Nakamura Blitz Speedrun part 8 | 2100-2210 

opponent: *breathes* hikaru: so we’ll mark that as a win

Hikaru should drop a mixtape: 1. Guess I'll just take 2. I'll mark that as a win 3. Let's see if he wants a rematch 4. Alright let's go again 5 And my personal favourite: Did i mark this as a win you guys ? Did i mark this as a win you gus ? Did i mark this as a win you guys ?

I thought I am a good player. What the hell is this he kills dozends of 2200 players without even thinking. Superhuman beast

Move #6: "We'll mark this as a win"

Grabs a pawn "uh, I'll mark that as a win"

One single free pawn: I’m gonna mark this as a win too.

"Do I have kids?, no, no kids I know of"

Super Gm Genius: *Continually forgets if he "marked that game as a win."

Love watching you destroy people who beat me. 😁 Your theory and experience are savage, I'm a casual player, haven't quite hit a stride in blitz, still around 1300 lol. This was helpful.

e4. "Oh well that's another win guys."

6:00 he acknowledges Ben Finegold as another GM who streams, and then trashes Hansen and Hambleton 30 seconds later. The truth hurts.

Wait this guy is

Logical logical, alright marking this video as liked

Hikaru "Oh he gave me a pawn in opening, guess we'll just mark this as a win" Nakamura

I don't have children. Not as far as I know...😂😂😂

Opponent plays e4 Hikaru: Ok so its checkmate next move

Nakamura: This and this and this is checkmate. Oh but this is one is more beautiful. As one of the subscribers already said: Priceless.

“Oh this guy is a 2208, wow this guy is good, this guy is a BOSS” 😂 Hikaru, all these guys you crushed in this video are bosses haha

" wait a minute guys , i need to focus a few seconds here instead of laughing because the guy is 2200 elo " LOL

Let's admit that they are GMs too haha

The ease of obtaining algorithms and strategy to defeat opponents as tall as these in such an easy, fast and efficient way seems prestigious to me, I am pleased to see how you play chess. Congratulations.

Game starts Hikaru: *ok lets mark this as a win*

1:35 His knight was defended by his other knight. So queen takes was no checkmate, but you would have lost your queen.

To a 1300 like me 2000 players seem like unbeatable gods. And he destroys them like they're absolutely nothing. What an absolute beast.

*made a bad opening* Hikaru: Guess, I'll just win

Plays e4, “were gonna go ahead and mark this as a win”

38:06 that’s just a free pawn, I’ll mark this as a win LOL!

Hikaru avoids talking about Eric Hansen. Hikaru was asked if he had any children. Denied. Hikaru was asked which gm also live streams. Denied again.. no love for his adopted son Eric Hansen 🙄😟😣

Can you at least pretend like your thinking when you play

I saw you in norway, congratz for winning norway tour 2019!

Squashing ants on pavement and keeping count.

Suggestion: if you play a supporter of your chat\channel a) don't mark the win before the game is over b)offer one rematch or more (as it must be very hard to get randomly paired with you) Thanks for the great content!

"This guy is a boss, I have to flag him.."

22:52 “this is a free pawn”. “I’m going to mark this for win too”

11:02 Hikaru: *moves knight b6* Also Hikaru: "Let's go king b1"

28:59 Qd1, Be2, Nf3. to beat a GM one must master this on a near constant with his pieces. always having three pieces primed and ready to go. the knight advances the bishop covers the queen reinforces the pawns shield. the rooks reinforce the pawns ready to counterattack. Be3 advances, e4 d3 protects, Nf1 reinforces. constant. flux

holy shit that endgame at ~17:00

"Where do the arrows come from? I draw them on the board. Are they part of OBS? No." I think you missed the point that he wanted to know how you draw them on the board...

8:42 wasn't Queen h7 just checkmate? edit: AND 8:58 rook f8???

Lol at the JB impersonator, impersonators are always funny

"Did I mark this as a win already?" lol

whats the playlist, love that 1st piece.

let me three think for 3 seconds to win, 2 seconds later, okay my 3 seconds are over, I won.

Hikaru in bad positions: Guess I'm gonna flag him

Like it.I will have a tournament recently.Thanks nakamura for sharing this to help me improve in playing chess

I'm rated 2100 at chess.com and he is obliterating opponents I really struggle with 😭. Great video Hikaru, I've learned a lot.

"I havn't eaten all day, but I'm holding out for dinner."

Anyone know name of this music?

Looking forward to the blind speed run

did he mark it as a win guys?

young hikaru looks slim

33:42 - Naka intensifies

6:20 Dang I can't believe he found a tactic without even thinking a single second. It will take at least 30 seconds for me(10 seconds to find the move and 20 seconds to confirm)

The outro music scares me to death..

There's a saying in pool, the better you are, the luckier you get.

Some of these 2000 have to be computer cheaters. They're seriously hanging pawns all the time.

Hey Hikaru, at 36:12 assuming your opponent played a perfect defense and had enough time, do you think you would've been able to win that endgame without a draw?

33:14 This is insane why is he bringing his king this guy insane? Is he trying to get Checkmated ? 😂😂

8:43 mate in 1 😂

That's hilarious Naka, Hansen and Aman GMs, although.... deliberate blunderings, etc. Lol. But then again, maybe not so (deliberate). Lol. Good games, competition and funny impersonator gag happening too here. Thx.

16:38 bruh this is the real endgame

i'm so confused. Again at the nine minute mark moves king instead of mating with rook

31:00 opponent

8:44 mark hikaru misses a simple mate by not playing queen h7.

Can someone explain how Qf7 was mate in the first game (at 1:53)? There is a knight on e5 that can just take the queen?

Hikaru is so talented! watching him play Chess is like watching tony hawk do a 900 or something

5:09 ''anyway,... that's a hundred and twenty wins in row'' as if this was nothing... lmao... this guy, I'm telling ya..

oh it’s a 2100? might have to focus for 3 seconds here

Do a video in which you resign every time you repeat yourself

8:41 wasnt that checkmate already?

GO GO NAKA-MURAAAAAAAAAAA

If you just mark it when you win, you would avoid all the confusion. You don't need to rush it like bullet.

where can I find the tracklist of the background music?

8:58 Rxf8#

No one comments on his reading speed and response times

30:03 black to Rh5 then queen to b6 youre busy setting up for your attack but im putting it on hold. white to a5 target black queen rook supporting. black Rh5 to Ra5 rooks trade. continue from there

33:15 I'm dead rofl

Hikaru you are a beast

What's the music at 18:50??

Nice thumbnail :D

Funniest thing is this is all scripted , so he is actually acting as himself! Oceans 11 meets Last Action Hero. Good Stuff

6:45 why did he not take the queen on D8 ?

anyone knows the song at 28]30

am I the only one who immediately checks the end to see if he lost a game

19:32 Qd8-a5?

hi people! im back from subscription cemetery! wtf is up with youtube? im subbed to hikaru and stopped getting videos in my feed im so pissed

8:58 rook f8 checkmate?

Is online chess like videogame?

song 11:00 ?

whats the music at 3:35 ????

Benedict Arnold is just as terrible as my chess skills.

If you want to know how it fells to play against hikaru, then open stockfish 8 and play against it.

34:14 rd3 was winning for white wasn't it?

GMpenguin and Carlsen too also stream

16.24 free pound for black

They are GMs too xD

8:43 isn't queen h7 mate in one?

"Relax Relax Relax!!! Just calm down peaople"

Hikaru winning is like a knife through butter
