Hikaru and Magnus would be sick

Thank you for making this comment - it's the thing that encouraged me to watch it! I was going to skip after the summary at the start!

Salacious? 😳

@@austinewing526 That's because of a neurochemical. Is that not the equivalent of saying yeah, that's because of contrast and arm or leg?

Yeah! I mean, this is marketing clout. Lie detectors are mostly bullshit. There's the editing and scripting and all that. But as a market piece for such a tiny sport like chess this was nice and pleasant. I come from a martial arts background where the marketing is "I WILL KILL YOU!!! NO I WILL KILL YOU MORE!!!" "SEE THE KILLING NEXT SUNDAY! Yeah, I prefer the wholesome vibe a lot more.

Big fan Levy!

You guys showed and incredible amount of candor and I'd love to see more of that kind of content. Massive fan of yours here too!

@@klaushoward9158this 100%. Isn’t it crazy that people being candid is so much more endearing than a bland piece of “you boost me up then I’ll boost you up” my respect for both these guys just went up another notch. Loved it.

Post today's video🗣️🦅🔥🔥🔥 ragghhh🦅🦅🦅🦅

I just want to know. What's Lucy's reaction to the question - do u like andrea botez and u said yes. Please tell in one of your videos or in comments 😂. I m really curious.

Its possible they did ask and just didn't want it in the final cut of the video. Also they must have asked do you think Hans cheated

@@user-bc2fm8zc3qno way can they ask about hans, they don’t want to get sued

@@Tateygb they can ask and just not put it in the video. Plus the lawsuit ended a while ago

But what if they had tricked a friend by stealing a piece off their board when they looked away and it turns into a real conspiracy regarding their actual profession???

​@@Tateygb Can someone get sued for this? I mean isn't there a difference between accusing someone and saying "I personally think someone cheated"?

Petition to make this happen 🖊️ 📓

They would never agree to that but we can always hope

and Hans

This would be the next best thing to the Vegas thing, which isn't happening. :(

@@TheAdsfasdf4 Hans' lawyers are typing up terms of agreement as we speak. Hahahahaha.

Ayo. Why is this so on point. Havent seen toy story in decades but this is 1:1

That Toy Story guy is Geri, he originally appeared in the short “Geri’s Game”. Where he’s shown to be a chess player too! It’s all wrapped back around.

@@mattkim96Oh ye!! I remember watching that when I was younger. It’s all come full circle 😆🔥

I'm dead

I remember that short movie being in the begining of the bugs movie ​@@mattkim96

“Calibrated”

Looked like a scene from a movie

Very much like the intro to Mindhunter

I swear I go vibes from toy story where the toy man stitched up Woody@@colinrikhotso3220

*Polygraph. Lie Dectectors don't exist

The ironic part is while it seems harder, I actually think fixing your mental game and performance anxiety issues would take less time than acquiring the knowledge to make the next move to GM. So if he already has the knowledge and skill (or close to) to be a GM, I think the hardest part is done, he just needs to seek out a good sports psychologist and therapist.

At this point in his age and Elo trajectory... Becoming GM would be a highly irregular and exceptionally rare accomplishment. At one point maybe there was a path to it, but it would be hard to accomplish while running a busy RU-vid channel. Hikaru had the benefit of already being a gm when he started making videos.

​@@Daniel-ng8fiI don't think he has the knowledge though. When you see him analyze top level games, or even when playing Hikaru... He's often amazed at the moves they make, in a way that, to me, seems like he doesn't intuitively understand top level moves without analyzing. He's close in terms of ELO as just a number... But even 100 rating points at that upper level is like an entirely different and distant plateau of understanding. Close, yet so far away. Plus, his age. Learning chess, or anything for that matter is significantly harder as you age. Him becoming GM now would be a very atypical path to gm. I think it's the opposite. Psychologically he can can handle it, but he just doesn't have the practical knowledge to be a gm. I can't imagine being able to build a channel like his, and becoming a gm at the same time. If he focused on becoming a gm from a young age, throughout his career, I have little doubt levy could have been a gm. But her shouldn't be so dissatisfied. His career as a creator is way more lucrative, he's got way more recognition than any gm besides Magnus, his job is much more social and interactive and enjoyable than that of a GM's (Hikaru aside lol), he likely has a far bigger impact and influence over the chess world as the top chess creator. The only gm anyone cares about is the #1 for the most part. Everyone else is basically a side note in history. Surely he would ideally want to be a gm AND have his channel... But from where I'm standing, his RU-vid career is a much better choice if having to choose between the two.

​@@Daniel-ng8fiman that's exactly what i thought. But i guess the mental part might just be harder for some people

*jealousy you missed the a

@@Jared_Witte03 🧢

@@KrumovBobby What does the hat mean? That you don't care about misspelling?

@@Jared_Witte03 yes, it means 'cap'. Not sure if that's how you use 'cap' but you nailed the meaning regardless. Almost like how no matter how I spell 'jelosy' you'll still get the point. Because spelling is dumb like that. Or humans are smart like that... idk

@@Jared_Witte03 cap = lie "bro i got a million dollars" "CAP!" = "youre lying"

Very well said‼️

because of partnership?

i mean that's true

Except that time he and Lucy were in Kitchen Nightmares

And he never will, until the day chess speaks for itself

Completely agree. Hence commenting on your comment (and one other haha). These two always struck me as not being anything other than honest and this video showed that in the best way (didn't need the actual lie detector as they both immediately said yes to the supposedly embarrasing answer).

the machine would blow up as soon as Hikaru enters the room, I love hicky he is deceptive as a kid, I dont even know how much selfaware he is of it

Leko ....

Totally agree! He is the best English speaking commentator

For me personally, it's definitely Jan Gustafsson who got me excited about chess again. The combination with Peter Svidler was great, especially the World Championship match between Carlsen and Karjakin

Sagar Shah is great aswell

Especially with david howell

Ah now u mentioned it.. especially from the cinematic shot at the intro with the background music.. definitely looks like him

Isn't that the same character from that short Pixar released of two old guys playing chess?

@@gabrielabrahao4383 it is indeed actually! Wow…

Speaking from the heart, and the rate at which it beats.

But he seemed to believe he was telling the truth. So is this detector actually able to pick up his subconscious, true beliefs? Or was it just giving false readings? Personally I am an over thinker. I could imagine myself making myself nervous and throwing off the results lol

Appreciate that

Are you the real Richárd Rapport?

@@yrtocsavu1996he isnt

theres also 15:37

I don't like that so many humans are so obsessed with how mush others earn.

But this is such a heartwarming content, didn’t expected that to be honest ❤

Pathetic.

Well, technically he was in the box, but the bishop prevented him from catching the pawn.

Lie detector does work if the subject believes into it hard enough. Then even monitoring the pulse will be enough.

@@MikkoRantalainenThese machines just check for a reaction, be it pulse or blood pressure. Being afraid to get caught in a lie can of course cause such a reaction, but answering uncomfortable questions honestly can also cause the same reaction. These tests are useless. Fun to watch though

@@MikkoRantalainen No it's completely useless technology for detecting lies, the guy who invented this technology hated how people started using it. People are different, anxiety and stress plays a huge role into how your results come out.

If they were valid they would be used everywhere commonly. Imagine how much easier it is to just connect people to a magic lie detector and ask questions than hire an investigation crew and try to find evidence of crimes

Very confidently wrong.

I think this comment needs more appreciation
