Hikaru Nakamura Invented A New Checkmate In Chess. This is Hikaru's chess game against Vladimir Fedoseev in the Titled Tuesday Chess Tournament 2ns January 2024. Magnus Carlsen won the event but Hikaru Nakamura stole the greatest checkmate in the chess tournament with this stunning checkmate using two knights and rook! Hikaru Nakamura is truly a blitz chess beast!

“Like a cat with a ball of string” … “like Harry Houdini covered in Vaseline.” I watch your videos in large part because I love the way you talk about the game. You’re descriptive without being over the top (unless with a healthy dose of sarcasm, which I also love) and you don’t waste any time. Keep it up. You’re helping people maintain interest in what can otherwise be a dense and discouraging game. Thanks again

@BuggaUgga 6 месяцев назад

Such an entertaining commentary! I got Covid, too! Hope you get well soon! At 6:41 the consonants of Zwischenzug are pronounced perfect now. The "u" of "Zug" can be pronounced a little bit darker as in "Luke", but I don't find a better example word. Then your Zwischenzug is perfect. To the game: It's interesting that 10. f3 was a good move and 17... f6 also had been good. It could have held a winning position. The black h-pawn would have been unstoppable.

@aaronevans7713 6 месяцев назад

At 4:30 There is no pin. There is a bishop exposed to a pawn and Hikaru's knight is about to fork both rooks with Nxf7. Picking up a pawn, a rook, a bishop and either trading queens or losing a second rook for the price of a queen.
