TODAY we will be looking at a game from the 2024 candidates in Toronto played between GRANDMASTER Alireza Firouzja and popular Streamer HIkaru Nakamura

@@aaaaaa-rr8xm Not accurate either. You forget the beginning pause with 10 billion "........" into "Welcome back"

lol, i cant stand his intro

Yeah, Hikaru is one of the best in blitz, too bad he is without any crown for it. I still didn’t understand why he skip last year world blitz championship. Expecting him to play against Magnus, without him Magnus took it easily.

Firouzja has reached 2900 in FIDE blitz rating (so has Hikaru).

Firouzja is one of the very best Bullet players on the planet

@@randomguy8107 bullet has nothing in common with blitz

You’re acting like as if Firouza isn’t a top class blitz player

„Shocked“ 😂

😂😂

you could tell they were exhausted too after commentating that long lol

First half of Ding's candidates were a lot worse than Hikaru's so far and he's world champion, so yeah the comeback is possible

Yessss

Hell yeah lets go hikaru!

@enderduck4253 yeah but this candidates hikaru need to finish number 1 to challenge ding as defending champion from last year. Last year magnus decide to not defending his title so no 1 & no 2 candidates standing play each other.

Yes he will win this tournament and look back at this when he refused to play for the draw and reminded the world he is the best blitz player in the world besides Magnus and can beat anyone when he goes for it

His style actually

They don't call him Guccireza for nothing

bro looks gay what are you talking about

​@@erik-arnoldkovacs6426he likes fashion a lot

I don't feel sorry for Alireza. The French Chess Federation has his back. I'm sure there are planned "Farming" tournaments for him in time for his continued Candidates appearances in years to come.

Bro they did that but the end of the day he played in a real tournament to qualify​@@antonioalexandercastro3520

@@antonioalexandercastro3520did you have the same energy for Ding and his “tournaments” to make it to the candidates?

Shame for alireza and shame how he got there. Farmer

​@@kunalgubnot even close to the same. Dude lived in China during COVID. Idiot. Not to mention he's literally champion so ya just pure horse shit from you. Well done😅😂🎉

He never did this on stream lol

Class is about the last word I can think of when talking about Hikaru.

Not celebrating in front of your opponent is just basic courtesy at events like this.

​@@CosyBrew grow up brotha, you're a lot behind

@@riddhimaraj549 Another delusional fan of the most odious man who every played the game of chess. It's you that's needs some serious growing up... brotha!

Learn everywhere and play here it's not the place to learn

@@vickyrajawat1126 and still somehow, the best lessons come from the play here

@@crumbopulis you are right i think it was my fault thinking in this way

They should show multiple eval bars, so the viewer can understand the probability of them finding it vs. better players. Average viewer > SF depth 1, IM > SF depth 11, GM > SF depth 14, Super GM > SF depth 19

I was kind of surprised by how much more understanding Judit showed compared to David and Danya given their peak ratings (David's and Judit's) are very similar. I think even Danya was surprised by that since he made a lot of uncharacteristic errors in calculation and judgement - I don't think I've ever seen him make that many.

Well, Judit played in Candidates, she was a whole level above in her peak. We cannot compare ratings in different epochs, it makes little sense.

​@@alanlegauche 100% agreed

💀fr this game is brutal man

6 hours*

naka needed that win in the worst way. he tricked firouzja into taking that pawn. now he's got a fighting chance. maybe he wins like 3, 4 games in a row and goes on to the title match against ding, which would be epic since he threw away the draw against vidit in the second round.

That C group slot time paying off!

In todayyyyyyyys video

He's not using a cinematic camera? It's just a normal camera with background blur I believe

It's not only the camera. He's using better lighting than the others.

Yes i also love the camera colour filter of naroditzsky, i also want to know the camera or filter or shade.

Why is it sad?

​@sam9239 because it effectively ends alirezas chance of winning the tournament

@@sam9239 Equal the whole game then it came down to one move. I'm rooting for hikaru but I lowkey felt sad for Alireza, you can see how devasted he was.

​@@tamelnv7048It was more than one move. That was an insanely complex position to play with 30 seconds on the clock. There were many possible losing moves and very few really accurate to keep the drawing chances

@@sam9239 Because they played 61 moves with 97% accuracy, only for him to lose the game to a blunder in time pressure.

HIKARUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

He was laughing lol

​@@palebluedot8733show me the second where he was laughing lol

@@derbarenschander7737 8:38

@@palebluedot8733 i asked where he was laughing and u coudln't say anything, so why are you lying?

@derbarenschander7737 bruhhh I gave u the timestamp. Look again

legal in case of dispute

Nf4 is a very smart move for sure. Prevents Ke2 and poses major threats

Neither of them are championship material.

I’d 100% lose it with either color.
