      @luckyjc8702 Рік тому +11

      ​ @Beybaba Efendi A super GM would beat stockfish >99% of the time even if they're only given one clean minor piece odd. Let alone a queen. Like Hikaru often said, after a certain level, people start to understand how to clarify and simplify winning positions. You can just trade down and shut down all tricks to not give stockfish any chance to outcalculate you.
      Historically from various studies and experiments, GMs seem to need around 3 pawns odds or 2 pawns + 1 tempo to beat Stockfish. Hikaru has beaten Stockfish before with an exchange odds, but he struggled a lot with it, so it was a fair match. Something like a clean piece up would be easy though. Hikaru (and any GM really) would win 100/100 times as long as they're not careless. Let alone a queen up.

    Seeing this video it reminded me of a story I had with you.
    I was playing bullet on ICC and this guy I had beaten started shouting trash talking me and accusing of cheating (I never cheated in my whole life!). So I trash talked him back and, out of the blue, This guest t messaged me saying that I should not say those things cause I was to weak and he could beat me pretty bad.
    Then we started playing, me and this guest, and he proved his word. At that moment I could clearly sense that I was playing a GM. I wanted to play more, but not bullet which I had never enjoyed much, but blitz, and I said he was pretty strong, but in blitz the score would be different. Then we started playing blitz.
    I couldn’t get anything done, even the simplest plan on earth, but it was very funny and we played a bunch.
    At the end I congratulated him and said that I new I was playing no ordinary GM and asked if he could tell me his Identity, and he said: Smallvile.
    I was already a fan of you and since this day I became a diehard fan.

      He doesn't really have a choice. If he calculates any more than he does in these videos, his opponents will just catch up on time with him and have an easy win on their hands. The only way Hikaru can beat these 2300-2400 opponents is if he puts pressure on their clock.

      @@dankness420 That's not the only reason. 3+0 is by far the most common blitz time control. But yeah, he wouldn't be this high rated with increment. My prediction, based on what I've seen in this speedrun, is that he'd cap out at around 2100-2200 at 3+2.
