#chess #gmhikaru #wesley - Ігри
What makes this truly special is that Weasley had just lost his 3rd place match moments before this. To put that huge disappointment behind, and help prep someone with nothing in it for you, shows what gem of a person Wesley is. No wonder many have said he is by far the most friendliest person in the elite chess scene.
And he's the former champion. No huge ego for helping others.
Hikaru has said before in videos / stream Wesley is a good guy. I believe Hikaru didn’t have a second or coach with him. He was largely prepping by himself for this tournament.
The majority of the players there were alone, hikaru mentioned that on his interview on his stream.
@@kingamla779 not true Magnus, Nepo, Abdussaturov, Icelandic guy, fedosseev too probably and thats majority with the coach/second
he has chat
Two brains especially in opening preparation is better than one. Having second opinion from another GM is still the best
Hikaru has beads vibrating from the ceiling
Respect to wesley, he seems like a real nice guy
manlets stick together!
He is indeed ❤
I don't know, it's just a passive trait at this point to us Filipinos.
He is - arguably the nicest top 30 chess player in the game
He is also an American
1:10 Ian legit looks like some dude who got lost, and somehow found his way into a chess tournament.
That was so wholesome. 🥺
As a Wesley So fan, congratulations Hikaru for being the next World Fischer Random Champion! 🎉
whats more wholesome was hans in the background with the anal beads
“World Champion”, Just sayin 😅.
I think Wesley was Feeling some Queen's Gambit vibes............
@@TooManyChoices1 oh sorry!! Now edited, thanks for correcting 😁
I love chess. Congrats to Hikaru and kudos to Wesley for the assist 🇺🇸
wesley so is a filipino but he conerted nationality because of lack of support in ph government
Even better because I am also Filipino who graduated high school in Manila and live in the U.S. 🇵🇭
it's not just an assist. 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!
it's an actual PREDICTION.
@@baronlane992 look at my video about pichay 'Re-elected corrupt chess president Pichay had lied,using future 9LX world champion Wesley So's name.'. in 2018 or 2017 pichay said 'Because of my leadership in NCFP, a Filipino is now number 2 in the world in chess. His name is Wesley So.'
disgusting yet even though pichay was sentenced to prison in june 2022, pichay got re-elected as NCFP president in july 2022, around the same time arkady got re-elected
@@baronlane992 stop it american na siya
Thanks to Wesley to help me raise my boy Hikaru.
it's not just raising look at 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!
Wesley is a class act.
not just a class act. extremely talented. 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!
I wouldn't even remember the order of the pieces as soon as i walk away from the screen lol.
If you make it a pattern or verbalize it, you will remember it for weeks without trying. for example (you can create your own version)
(1) king is on c1 and both rooks are right next to the king.
(2) both bishops are on corners
(3) both knights are close to each close to kingside (h1) bishop
(4) the queen is on the remaining square.
Now that I wrote it like that, I am sure I will remember it next week.
@@AKhan0372 Wow that made it so easy to remember
@@AKhan0372 When i was at 'square' I forgot about the King.
You know Gasai what's even more amazing than remembering the order of the pieces? 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!
Wesley 🤝🏻 Hikaru
it's more than 🤝. look at 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!
I am a huge Magnus fan but I am so happy that Hikaru didn't end second or third behind Magnus as usual. It was a long anticipated and OFFICIAL FIDE world championship title! Well done and huge congratulations to Hikaru on the WC title in Fischer Random! And of course Wesley So always being a class act!
Wesley and hikaru have always seemed to have a good relationship. Props to Wesley for aiding hikaru with prep.
Wesley So is probably the classiest grandmaster the world over. It's hard to root against him in any tournament he plays in.
Besides class, there's extreme talent and synergy. Look at 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!
@@kawtskagid1198 lol I suppose you want the next WC as ULTRABULLET OTB? LOL
@@nicbentulan Who would want something that dumb? I don't even see bullet as real chess. I'll take a good classically trained GM over a bullet player any day. I don't play bullet at the chess club, and I don't know one else who does either. A game centered on mouselips and 1-2 move tactics doesn't hold my interest for long. But...keep living your best life chief...
@@AlexanderNevermind888 that's the point? Reductio ad absurdum?
The former master helping the new one, this just went full anime (or 90's action movie)
Lol, I like that idea.
@@shippernessity This is serious anime that people seem to miss: Look at 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!
The anime writes itself. The writing speaks for itself.

Always liked Wesley, seems like such a cool guy! Really hope he can bounce back after this year and find his form again :)
See my videos about Carissa Yip. The reason why Wesley is just so-so is because of a secret relationship with Carissa Yip I think. But without pressure maybe Wesley is doing pretty good. Look at 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!
(Wesley) Sooooo Wesley seems to be able to think well when not really under the pressure of battling teenagers in st louis 9LX (alireza), us champs (christopher yoo, hans niemann) and FIDE FRC (nodirbek). Lol.
He just beat Hikaru in the cgc so I think he found his form
@@YukiFR ah yeah the cgc 2022 kinda ruins my theory that wesley is distracted for 2022 st louis, 2022 us chess and 2022 WC because of a secret relationship with carissa yip (see my vids). but eh could still be possible: carissa says 'get 200,000 or we're done' XD
Hikaru always gets up like after the match it looks like he just played to save humanity from aliens and he just wants to run away from this menace of a game. This is irrespective of how easily he won or lost.
Wesley certainly didn't tell him how to castle
Best comment here 🤣
@@michaelscott5653 Can I propose a better comment?
But Wesley told Hikaru what would be the 1st 3 moves. See 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!

THe previous world champ helping the current world champ
it's not just helping BUT REALLY PREDICTING. see at 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!
Wesley recognized that Harry, the dangerous H-pawn, was randomized to the B-file! 1.b3 thus became the obvious opener. Then Hikaru gladly gave away the fake H pawn in order to advance the real Harry to b4. It was mate in a couple of moves. 😁
ok but seriously wesley did recognise something. see 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!
My respect for Wesley has shot up recently, right after seeing him tell Fabi he was in check before he made an illegal move. No other chess player would do that
not just what a class act sportsperson wesley is but look at how talented wesley is after 3 years at 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!
"W"esley "S"o passing the torch to the next world champion. What a great guy!
why do u quote the W and S?
What the hell is going on with the quotes?
we have r/anarchy chess leak here

Also look at 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!
Great sportsmanship. Now two world champions from US. :)
All class from Wesley. He could have just left Hikaru to deal with his own problems but instead took the extra step to help.
Wesley got paid with a pineapple.
Wesley "Wingman" So
you need a bigger word than wingman. look at 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!! a wingman makes suggestions. a prophet makes predictions.
It looks like passing a crown from past champion to a new one)
Hikaru is definitely the best chess player of all the youtubers))
look at 1:00 and you'll see it's more than just passing. WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!! i'd this was like a coronation than a mere succession. it's incredible how they did that without engines in 5 minutes.
@@nicbentulan it was kinda obvious) Naka needs to activate light pieces and open the board. He clearly loose debut cause Nepo was ready, cause there wasn't much variety..and they are superGMs for a reason)
@@jurybounackoff3025 Really? What's wrong for example with Nf3 and Nf6 in the 1st 3 moves? Sure you can predict b3 etc will happen but really like 1st 3 moves even if not in order and all pawn moves ?
A superGM is not an engine. Usain Bolt can never compete with a Ferrari, to use Garry's analogy (in lex fridman podcast).
I'm a chess24 mod. Wesley made some banter blitz shows there. He has been the nicest guy, answered questions from the chat,
explained his position and moves and was polite and nice to everybody. Great guy.
Can confirm. I'm mod r/chess960. I met Wesley So in 2012 Feb. Very nice humble etc
Btw mod did you notice 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!?!?!????
@@nicbentulan Nice that you spotted that, I didnt 😀.
@@MickThal p.s. check out my vids. i made a vid on the prediction. side by side comparison with the prep and the actual game. it's insane right?
Did Ian really expect to win while wearing a House Stark T-shirt?
Guy literally chose the worst House at strategic maneuvering😂
Lol, you hilarious bro 😂
For the sake of winning money he should ware house Lannister
Does it still count as a spoiler in 2022 given how popular GoT was in 2010s?
It is funny to think that So helped Hikaru to win a world championship then took from him another world championship. WOW!
Congrats Hikaru on becoming Fischer Random World Champion
For us mere mortals, we see the new position, we prepped and we sit down and realized we prepped the wrong position.
do you know Gasai just how immortal they are? see 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!
I wish there were more chess 960 tournaments, the games are always so exciting!
Ian has been on fire. He has come close to winning the title in so many formats
Class act Wesley.
Besides class, there's extreme talent and synergy. Look at 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!
This video had early UA-cam vibes
Wesley: *Helps Hikaru become World Champion*
Also Wesley: *Steals $200,000 from him*
It was truly a joyous moment to watch live.
Weird background music choice, I feel like I'm about to discover who the killer is in NCIS
Mis respetos a Wesley So, es un grande como jugador y persona.
Congrats Naka and congrats USA
Hikaru is Japanese.
The music isn't loud enough. I can still hear talking.
So is my favorite player. I really like this guy. In a very competitive game, find people like him is amazing.
This background music makes me feel like I'm watching a horror movie. Perfect for the time of year!
USA did it again in Iceland! Congrats 👏!
Kudos to the Editor/Creator of this video.. Good Content.
Wesley is a class act!!!
lol they looked at the position for 10 seconds and actually remembered it :D
Congrats Hikaru!!!
Wesley must be so proud !
Congratulations to Hikaru 🥳
And filipino-American has been helping a man that became an champion
Amazing! two world champions in one video 💪
This is the beauty of chess
Nepo is a super nice guy btw, he mostly talks after he loses, not like Hikaru or Magnus. I hope Nepo beats Ding for the world championship.
Respects and many congrats!
Nepo's Face in the thumbnail XD
hakaru seems cool, i think he could start streaming or something
why is the background music sad lol
By the way wesley so is a filipino🇵🇭, he support some of our chess tournament called wesley so cup
What is the name of the background sound?, thank you🙂
I feel like the most creative players would thrive Chess 960 like Dubov, Nihal, Alireza so its no suprise Hikaru won this tournament with ease
1
yeah maybe but this was 25 min rapid. hikaru is pretty good at 25 min rapid. wesley not really as we see in st louis. hikaru's creativity i think is suited for 25 min rapid 9LX. is hikaru's creativity suited for classical 9LX? or even the 45 min rapid as we saw in the 2019 FIDE 9LX WC where hikaru did lose to fabi (but well hikaru did beat wesley who got back in just by repechage LOL) soooo?
2
did you know Gasai hikaru won st louis 2020 9LX but was only 9th place in st louis 2021 9LX? i didn't notice before. i noticed just now after hikaru won. i was checking out hikaru's standings. what do you think of that?
3
did you notice that at 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!! !?!?!?!?!?!
GM Vladimir Fedoseev looks a lot like Hikaru now must be a fan
So be like "If you get in this position, you can just castle, you'll be fine"
Wesley So. The pride of Indonesia 🇮🇩
What is the music used in this video?
wholesome
Wow. I love this so much.
they should have a seperate fischer-random rating. They invite the best normal chess players, but does that make them automatically the best fischer random players?
wesley my fav half filipino chess gm 💀
Man Hikaru should slide some thousands for the homie SO
0:45 G M Vladimir Hella lot looks like hikaru
Song Name: Happiness is free by Viano dee
What's the point of preparation in Fischer random though?
Hikaru Nakamura World Champion!!!
My respect for Wesley ↗️↗️↗️
respect for not just class but talent and synergy see 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!
@@nicbentulan yea🔥↗️
@@keshavsewak5458 update: i don't think it's in this chessc*m stream but i'm double checking the chess24 stream insane i think they ACTUALLY PREDICTED 1ST 4 OR EVEN 5 MOVES
this is insane right?
@@nicbentulan that's insane but these gms have way more experience than us so ig they could predict some moves
@@keshavsewak5458 indeed indeed.
ahh, this might rival the romance between hikaru and magnus, damn hikaru what a player you are as a chess player and as a man too
I thought Hikaru got help from chat in his head
Wesley so helping GM Vladimir at 0:47
Hikaru just deserved it
Wesley Soooo good
ALSO sooooo talented. did you notice 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!?!??!
Team USA is a dangerous Team right now, it seems that their top players are in cooperation whoever among them is in momentum, they are helping and motivating each other.
was this in my recommended because my name is wesley or because i watched a hans nieman video we may never know
Ok since you're here I figured I'd share this fun fact. See 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!
Check out the game yourself they play 1st 3 moves each and it's exactly this position
A bit deceptive as Hikaru didnt get the better opening with white but still great to see American rivals work together
Didn't? The eval is 0.7. Insane how they figured this out without any engines see that in 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!
I stand corrected, I still feel the title is a bit deceptive as the game is merely starting and it was Hikaru amazing resilience to keep the imbalance in a must win but Wes is one of the nicest GMs ive met so he deserves plenty praise but kudos to him and the boys repping the U.S. in Iceland
At this point I hope Nepo wins a World Championship in anything...
And Wesley can’t even castle. Good stuff.
Yes exactly. It shows Wesley beat Magnus really on talent last time instead of playing a million 9LX games.
How talented? See 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!! Insane right?!?!!
Wesley just a great guy. IMO, the top players almost all are, men and women.
Ian should win the upcoming world championship against ding or I will reallt feel bad for him losing against magnus and now against nakamura in a world championship match.
If these 2 guys keep helping each other one of them could be a world champion in classical game. After all they’re both representing USA 🇺🇸.
we need a chess anime right now
what's the name of the song?
Somewhere Fuse - French Fuse
Wesley died for this
Wesley So is a Filipino and unfortunately philippines didn't help him when hes going for the tournas, so probably he see himself in Hikaru playing alone.
i just realized are hikaru and wesley wearing the same ring or am i on drugs
They are. It was discussed on r/hikarunakamura and r/chess960 a few weeks ago.
More importantly, See 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!?!?
so good he didnt show him how to castling :D
Based on what i see, Wesley was helping GM Vladimir Fedoseev.
heroes
This is the new chess. AI will still dominate of course but there is a lot to learn from new piece placements.
They have started to learn? See 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!?!?!! Is that insane or what?!?!
@@nicbentulan it really is. They are on another level.
@@kingsolo6241 update: i don't think it's in this chessc*m stream but i'm double checking the chess24 stream insane i think they ACTUALLY PREDICTED 1ST 4 OR EVEN 5 MOVES.
that's total insanity right? have you heard of people predicting up to FIVE moves in a chess960 game before now?
@@kingsolo6241 wait did you see this initially yourself? or just from me? also come to r/chess960 ? :D
Wesley is such a cutie❤❤
Talented cutie. See 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!
Also I think Wesley is secretly dating Carissa Yip. I made a video on that recently
The chess rule who made by US player, and US player keep taking it, what a great chronologies
yeah 2019 wesley won, 2020 hikaru won, 2021 leinier, 2022 fabi and then hikaru. sooo americans always win 9LX created by an american? XD
P.S. did you see 1:00 WESLEY AND HIKARU PREDICT THE 1ST 3 MOVES OF THE GAME!!!?!?!?!
Imagine Magnus came there just to help Hikaru (its just a what if ok?)
How Wesley Helped Hikaru Prepare To Become World Champion?
Hikaru: Push it deeper Wesley.
Wesley: I can't push it any deeper. The Fischer Random version has a bigger diameter than the Classical one.
