More Kramnik Craziness 

Like arguing with a teammate in Counter Strike who gets headshot pistol round and doesn't shut up about how the other team is cheating for the rest of the game

Reminds me more of my unironic flat earther friend is borderline retarded but believes everyone else is stupid

I feel you brother. And when you can't eat any more you must be ill!

😂😂😂

It’s like arguing with a pro-Trump idiot who thinks the world is flat, that the US was intended as a Christian theocracy, and that everything Trump has done has been perfectly legal and good in all respects.

I think people should cut any dialogue with him already beside just repeatedly telling him to finally share those mythical statistics he was boasting about since beggining

​@@rohan1864And where's the fun in that? xD want this shit to continue at least 3 more years

Yes! 😂

That’d be not a very good idea. Naka is 1.70 tall, whereas Kramnik is like 1.90 for example. Taking into consideration Kramnik is retired but not as bad as an avarage player… idk lol

Hikaru is like 166 and Kramink 194

Kramnik would probably destroy Nakamura.

Let’s make it chess kickboxing!

He seems to think that because he didn't literally say the words _"I'm accusing Hikaru of cheating"_ then that somehow means he can't be held accountable for saying it 🤷

@@TrackpadProductions Kramnik has beem very clear about this. Hikaru's streak is sus so it ought to be investigated, but merely having a sus streak doesn't equate to cheating

​@Bladieblah but it has been investigated. It has been overexplained, and Kramnik is still claiming foul play

All my homies hate Kramnik.

@@NoelAKABigNolo Kramnik is wrong here and even making a fool of himself at this point. But he's not directly accusing Hikaru of cheating, he wants a more thorough investigation and is raising his issues with the current one. I don't agree with him but he is not accusing Hikaru of cheating. He's raising the possibility of cheating, like he's done against many others. Btw I just saw in a thumbnail (and I'll stick to the thumbnail, never supporting that channel) that Chesscoms fair play team has been in contact with Kramnik for a while talking about his suspicions of cheating in chess and their findings. He really ought to know better because proper statistical evidence and analysis is brought to him directly

You don't understand RU-vid pay like I do, I'm a professional scuba diver! ;)

LOLOL

Such pathetic comments don't be finish at those videos. Are u really laugh or u compete in rudeness with Hikaru??

All my homies hate Kramnik.

KramyKram?

Don't give this nutcase another platform to spew his uninformed opinions.

I'd rather see Hans interview Kramnik about cheating

I'd gladly watch both. With a huge bowl of popcorn :)

Yeah, I'd pay to see a stream/video in which Kramnik levels his accusations directly to these players' faces LOL

Thanks. I would love to get destroyed by him for 20 games.

We know

If I lose 2 times in a row to some player, I will call it quits. But these players stick to 20 loses in a row for a reason. Of course they are proud to play against Hikaru

​@@Egyfitnessexactly, not to mention the hope that maybe you'll even beat him! It's win-win!

Would love to get my 700 ass adopted by Hikaru

Yes Kramnik raises good points and issues but is stuck in pre-internet chess times so he is unable to compute certain things. When he linked TheLegendIsBack1, the Turkish prodigy, and made his comments. It really showed a generational gap.

Kramnik is stuck in his own ego.

I felt the same way. But he is getting so insanely ridiculous, that I don't feel that way anymore. Ultimately, he is the only one responsible for embarrassing himself on that level...

@@David-by8ev in the beginning I thought it was ridiculous, now I feel sorry for him

@@seinundzeiten I do get that. It IS a sad story, overall...

Some years back, I remember reading about an incident in a Magic: The Gathering tournament where a pro player was on the borderline of making Top 8 in the last round of Swiss and was expecting his opponent to concede to him as it was a common gentleman's agreement. His opponent responded "I came here to play" and ultimately won, keeping the pro player out of the elimination rounds. The pro player was... rather upset. This is collusion (which some other pro players supported) and is far, far more problematic than streamers farming. Farming, collusion, and sitting on rating aren't exactly unheard of in OTB chess, so where's the crusade against any of that?

​@@lunatickoala Could you, please, elaborate your story? Why is it a gentlemen's agreement to help the opponent beat the current top 8 by conceding?

@@zkprintf In a Swiss tournament, in theory players should be paired against other players with the same record but if there's an odd number of people with a given record, one will get "paired down" against someone with a worse record. A 6-1 player might be paired down against a 5-1-1 player for example. Going into the final round, there's a possibility that the hypothetical 6-1 player can make the cutoff to Top 8 with a win but the 5-1-1 won't make it even with a win. Thus the stakes for the two players are very different. At the time, a player could earn Pro Points with a Top 8 finish at a Grand Prix event, and getting enough Pro Points would earn qualification to Pro Tour events. A high finish at a qualifier obviously helps with qualifying for the tournament it's a qualifier for, a high finish at regionals helps with qualifying for worlds, etc. Because of the importance of making Top 8, it was considered a courtesy for someone with very little at stake other than a bit of Elo rating to concede to someone with a legitimate chance. I believe the reasoning (or possibly rationalization) was that being paired down is generally a matter of luck and it's not very gentlemanly for someone to play spoiler against someone who had the misfortune of being paired down. There was also a gentleman's agreement that if two players were guaranteed to make Top 8 with a draw, they'd do so because again, making Top 8 at all was more important than seeding in the Top 8, and being able to rest and relax for a round was probably a factor too. The thing about all gentlemen's agreements and more generally all unwritten rules is that they're vague and nebulous and prone to inconsistent enforcement. A bit of Old Boys' Club. I thought there was a bit of entitlement to it, since it was only notable because it happened to a pro. If it was just some nobody, would anyone have cared whether or not an opponent conceded. Of course, the counterargument is that even if someone has the bad luck to be paired down, they could simply make it a nonissue by winning. What I don't know is if there was an expectation of reciprocation for conceding. Obviously open collusion and bribery were verboten but again, unwritten rules are unwritten.

@@lunatickoala Oh, now I get the story. Thank you greatly for a detailed explanation!

I just wanna see someone say "Okay boomer" to Kramnik's face

Unironically it's true. I used to think Russian education was excellent and Russians were "all smart."

Players under 1800 otb can't consent.

Most children tire themselves out after a few hours - quicker than a single Kramnik interview.

@@Pjc0869 kramsimp bot detected

​​@@Pjc0869 atleast karmnik should have the balls to tell he feels hikaru is cheating.

​@@astlinj Kramnik is wrong here, but you can't say he lacks courage or doesn't say what he's thinking. He's doing this purely out of principle despite getting a lot of mockery for his efforts. He believes Hikaru's streak is suspicious and wants it to be investigated, he doesn't make a direct accusation because a suspicious streak doesn't equal cheating

Kramnik doesn't seem to be very bright, his understanding of statistics is flawed, and his grammar and spelling is utterly terrible.

@@CanariasCanariass He's been the very best in his field, that's more than you or any of us in the comments can say. Show some respect for the former no.1 and world champion

Problem with this guy is you can't logically discuss with him.

problem is Hikaru is afraid of this, Kramnik had offered it already, the queen run away 😊

Instead, he bought a bigger shovel.

He stole my tactic. I'm almost in China now.

“Excuse me, how dare you say this indentation in the ground is a hole, watch me take legal action” - Kramnik, probably

“No, no, Dig up, stupid” - Chief Wigum

Don't, oil will make him rich.

What do you mean ?

Like the good stuff Kramnik smoked.

Kramnik is a cheater

Yup. I think this is my first time here - ever.

What if its an unfair coin deciding which possibility arises?

I see you yourself are not a statistitian. I.e. consider whether each of your 4 possibilities really having the same likelyhood; you've set each to 0.25 but don't you think, for e.g. the chance of "any other day" would be higher the "today," or "tomorrow"?

@@DJsTeLFtheres a 107% chance that you don’t understand sarcasm and jokes.

@@FizzleIsGaming Statisticians often don't 😥🤣

Your math is just about as good as Kramnik's math. Maybe even better!

Great comment!

And logic check. He could hire someone who graduated from high school for that.

the King and the queen of youtube to be correct

online without a doubt 😂

He is proof, if we needed it, that being good at chess does not make you "smart." Not at all.

So everyone who’s in the top 30 who plays online is farming? This is so infuriating.
