  1. Hikaru fan boys were talking too much after yesterday's match..got humbled lol 😅

  2. Hikaru can bounce back. He needs to win against Abosov. If Gukesh and Nepo draw their games Hikaru is back to being half point behind

  3. "I think chess is in good hands. this generation born from 1990 to 1994 really have dominated for a long time and we have these youngsters born 2003 and after sort of a generation that's worthy of succeeding us when the time comes. the time could be fairly soon"
    ~ Magnus Carlsen

    1990-1994 Magnus, Wesley, Ding, Caruana, Nepo, Karjakin, MVL, Anish

    2003 up – Firouzja, Gukesh, Pragg, Keymer, Abdusatorov, Erigaisi

  4. WC goes through Vidit and Hikaru just got KO'd. Again.

  5. Hikaru needs to learn how the knight moves 😂

  6. What a surprise, FIDE put Ian at 10% chance of winning! They callously prevent him from representing Russia, forcing him to use the flag of his abusers… he was the only one who has had a serious clock malfunction. I wonder what other psychotic and clownish things FIDE is doing to him that we don’t know about yet?
    It’s all for a good cause, right? Putin can’t be allowed to win a chess tournament!

    Why we don’t run these ridiculous, unprofessional clowns out of International Chess is beyond me. Why is everyone going along with this insanity?

  7. Thanks for the notification, 11 hours late….

  8. How can Nakamura lose to a dead man like Vidit? This is a complex

  9. Imagine the difference in classes of Magnus Carlsen and the rest. In the title defense 2021 he beat the current leader Nepo 7,5:3,5. Why continue to dominate like that? He knows that there is nothing left to prove. On the other hand, there has never been such weak competition for the champion with a difference so big.

  10. thats it then Nepo is obviously beating Chokesh and wins again, truly the Candidate of all time 😴

  11. Coverage was ok. All the games were covered fairly well. Still missing Leko.

  12. Can we mute this Tania and let Judith and Robert do the talking. And bring Peter Leko back!

  13. Am i dreaming or what the heck is happening. Take a bow to Vidit !

  14. It’s just funny about Magnus thought about Indians in the Tier List.

  15. If I were vidit, my heart won't be able to take this tournament. The amounts of ups and downs he has faced this candidates is just insane. Like bruh 6 decisive games out of 9 in this level.

  16. “The Hikaru”??
    If any current top player should have their name on Nf3-b3 opening it’s Radjabov.

  17. Vidit has come a long way from his king sacrifice vs hikaru

  18. Greetings from Vancouver. Very much enjoyed following the matches with this trio and Ms sachdev commentary. Her energy is contagious and keeps this newbie invested in the games

  19. Vidit was one of the players who mostly draw, but in the tournament he has the least draws. Wonderful

  20. “I am your father.” – Darth Vidit

    “Noooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!” – Hikaru Nakamurawalker
