Thanks for the commentary work and especially for raising money for CARE with Anna. You're worth more than the whole chess set, Levy.
Such a wholesome comment!! 👏🏻👏🏻
Love u Hikaru 😎
Stay strong Hikaru! Looking forward to seeing you win in future tournaments!
Love you Naka
Awesome work Hikaru, Levy and Anna!
BLANKIES BIGFROG GREAT RECAP
glad you got your bigfrog Anna! thanks to both of you for the great stream today
hello anna! nice to see you here :)

@Mustafa Khan I’m Jewish you moron 😂
"Now you have to know how to mate with knight and bishop"
Maybe the single biggest pain in the ass in the entire game of chess...
Easier for my 900 brain to pretend it’s impossible lol
yesn't
I know the steps but i haven't seen it ingame before
You should watch "chess coach andras" channel for that. He explained it really well.
There is two knights vs pawn checkmate, and it's even harder
@@couldntcareless7884 depends on where the pawn and the knights is, this could be easier or harder than bishop and knight versus king or impossible because of 50 moves rule which is extremely rare, typically harder. Queen versus rook and queen versus 2 bishops is also really hard
8:30 "How do you add pressure on the piece that is pinned?"
Me: B5!
GothamChess: "You play B5"
Me: YES! I am getting better at chess!
GothamChess: Except B5 is a losing blunder.

Yea ikr
My hopes went high for like 2 secs
And then it just goes downhill
Don't be sad, even Fabiano didn't spot it.
Well, so it means you are at a Super GM 2700+ level, as you played the same move as Fabiano did xd
It's ok ... you probably rushed to answer while if it was you playing I'm sure you could've saw it and played a better move my friend... don't doubt yourself I think watching the video and trying to call the moves will add to your already increasing talent
Prediction: they both lose and Levy is crowned champion
I’d be happy with this outcome
Obituary
Correct
That's fair
Seems like the only appropriate outcome
If Magnus’s pieces are stupid then mine have the intelligence of potatoes.
Mine should really have potato in their name because they play like potatoes

@@KanekiKen-fj5rj You drive a hard bargain.
1300 is this game. 1300 uhh, mid 1200 to 1300 is my final guess and here we go

"C'mon, it's a draw!"
-Probably Hikaru
He would never say that! He literally doesn’t care chat
that’s a good one ok moving on
hikaru offered a draw and then magnus offered a draw and then hikaru offered a draw so it has to be a draw
@@aryanmulani7494 Hikaru literally doesn't care though
Lol that had me dying for some reason
I am convinced now. Gotham is a vampire, there's no way he can upload such quality content so consistently while also eating and sleeping. Top notch dedication man
Yes he also has a video on the vampire gambit which is a very unusual, non-standard gambit. Ever heard of it??
Cocaine is a hell of a drug
You are wrong, he uses magic, with his magic wand 🙄. Nothing for a man who destroy Voldemort
That's his job lol
Vampires sleep too...
Levy, India appreciates this kindness. From India, with gratitude.

wholsome comment
I love when Levy says "And Magnus says 'Even though all I need is a draw, I'm not interested in a making draw, I'm interested in making the best move in the position.'" I feel like Magnus actually doesn't even know the score board. If he has an advantage, he will play for a win. He doesn't just want to win the event, he wants to take your soul if he can.
laughs in double bonkcloud
Magnus is one of those rare guys today that actually plays for a win
"I feel like Magnus actually doesn't even know the score board" lol
It's not about people not trying to win, they Just try not to lose and if they're sure they are better then they push for a win. Magnus is the best in endgames, so He wins these most often, but the others are trying to win too, they Just aren't so good
I would remind you of the last World Championship...
There is a very high chance that we could see Magnus vs Ian in the FINALS that would be epic!!
*They both are definitely favourite but you never know this is tough competition*
Unluckily for Ian, So has been playing the best chess in the tournament while Ian has been very shifty
It would actually kinda suck if it ended up being Magnus vs Ian. There's a good chance they'd play incredibly bland and boring chess to not give anything away.
It would be like a week 17 match-up in the NFL between two teams that already clinched playoff spots against each other. Super boring and conservative play that doesn't give away their real game plans.
That would be epic if not for Wesley So. The guy is playing the best chess in the tournament so far. Ян has hell of a match up problem.
You mean the battle for 3rd place?
Rip Fabiano we appreciate that you got 10 out of 15
Nepo is so ridiculously clutch, man was casually sipping on his drink while Fabiano was desperately trying to survive the blitz game. RIP Fabi, you fought well.
@@learnestlawrence4723 nepo was casually losing in that second blitz game too until fabi blundered his pawns
@@davidgunawan5778 a very resourceful guy. It was not losing but it could have been a draw if fabi played very precisely. Nepo would be the one pushing for victory even in that scenario.
Kinda sad for fabiano he destroyed everyone in the first rounds with being the first in score but he have problems with blitz games

Fun fact: I've never lost a game against Magnus
Whats so impressive about that?? Neither did I !
that's probably because magnus didn't even know you exist.
Outdated joke
You're a real Grandmaster!

"ill just watch Levy's highlights" 🤷
Literally me

Join us on the live commentary on Twitch!
I watched the first game before school and was rooting for Magnus, it was definitely a rollercoaster, but at some point it became one sided and I had to go
"This pawn BECOMES a queen, believe in your self"
But the pawn died after turning into a queen??
hahahahahahah good one
he means if u succeed too much in life u will be dragged down one
we are all gona die :D
Beauty from ashes my friend.

Levy, I want you to know that your videos are a gem. I'm from Europe, so I can watch them every night right before I go to sleep, and the way you do these recaps, so calm but so exciting at the same time really makes it perfect to end the day for me. Everytime there is a new tournament I am honestly more hyped about your recaps than the tournament themselves.
Thank you for that awesome 30 minute moment everyday
ua-cam.com/video/XZdC7S3zxZM/v-deo.html
yo I live in europe as well and I watch them before I go to sleep too!
Easily the most entertaining and natural chess commentator out there. And with like 0 edits, your like Kendrick in the studio.

I watched the entire stream but I was still refreshing my YT, waiting for this video
sameeeeee
Maybe it's time to find something else to do
how you got time to watch chess live:?
@@duggme i'm working a 9-5. listening to chess commentary is the same as listening to any other sport that's going on. not a big deal.
@@kaumudimahajan7739 How can god make you so ugly
Poor Hikaru. I really hoped he would pull together a win.
He did get a win against Magnus tho. And a beautiful one at that.
@Lucas Roberts I mean it was two drawn rounds, so it should definitely be possible. And yet...
@Lucas Roberts It's so weird how he can get a good advantage vs Magnus but then mess it up. I think it's psychological. And while Magnus should have a better record vs him, holding a higher elo, I think their actual tournament record is worse than one would expect for Nakamura.
Just look at this one: he blundered during tie breaks (literally just hung a bishop), and during one of the rounds Magnus needed to win but Hikaru pulled off this neat knight sacrifice which gave him a good advantage, and if he would have won, he would have won the whole round. But he still messed it up and Magnus ended up winning anyway.
His record vs Magnus stays pretty bad, with Hikaru eliminating Magnus only rarely. He may think it's playstyle but I think Hikaru would really benefit from some serious but casual (ie not in a tourney) games vs Carlsen.
@Lucas Roberts I recall watching it rather live. He had a good advantage after his knight sacrifice, but then lost the game after messing up. In blitz (I didn't watch that one live) he literally hung a bishop...don't get me wrong, all this means Magnus outplayed him of course.
Spoiler
who would have thought that seats 5-8 eliminate 1-4
Bizarro word
wtf were these seeds? How the hell the world champ is 6th?
@@aesir1ases64 based on standings from prelims
Levy's insight during stream is always amazing. LET'S PUSH THIS MAN TO 1M HE DESERVES IT!!!!!
And hes gonna drop a special video on 1M
3:51 possibly the only time Levy didn't say Eric Rosen Squeals for connect 4
ua-cam.com/video/XZdC7S3zxZM/v-deo.html
I think I am your classmate from grade five.I didn't know you watched levy
Watched it live yesterday, loved your commentary, keep up the great work
It always feels like whenever Hikaru plays Magnus they go neck and neck for the entire thing and in the end Hikaru is just very slighlty worse, which makes him lose. Magnus is world champion after all, but man that must be frustrating. They were very equal the entire matchup but Magnus just seems unbreakable and always keeps his cool in the final stage.
This is why Magnus is the world champion. Keeping your cool and not losing your mind is one of the most important traits of Magnus.
That's how chess is supposed to be. You'd rather one adopt the other?
Magnus is World champion for a reason
HIKARU THE KING OF CHOKE
I feel like Magnus fucks around with these tournaments and plays crazy shit until he goes against someone like Nakamura. Then he exploits the players weakness. In this case: Hikaru has never been great at prep and isnt used to playing weird sidelines that are actually okay because he doesn’t play as many SGM tourneys anymore. Carlsen knows this and goes after him when it matters
WE LOVE YOU. I’m not going to stop saying this
That's fucking riiiight
hay
Yep
Thank you for your recaps bro they are SO good
Damn, that second game in Hikaru-Magnus day two match was impressive! It’s like Magnus went into a super demon from hell mode after he lost the first game with white.
Your commentary, by the way, is brilliant! Лучший шахматный канал на Ютюбе!

Been watching your videos for months now levy, love the daily content and good commentary. Keep it up, you renewed my love for chess after many years of not playing!
Your excitement cheers me up. Massive congratulations on the charity stream!
i love how levy is so careful about what he says on his recaps, even saying that Ian can blunder sometimes, he still was really careful
"Why were there 4 draws"
Because it's Anish
It definitely won't be a chess vid without a mandatory overused unfunny draw joke on anish. If u r gonna make it at least try to be clever
@@soundbyte9000 Meh.
okey finally "anish draws joke" is arrived too and as usual, it is not funny
@@_A-B_ it is funny and I'm laughing
Thanks for the great recap AND FUNDRAISING Levy, you're doing great work keep it up.
Levy i love your content and always get a buzzy feeling each morning when theres a new video thats been posted :DD
How is Magnus vs Hikaru the Real Madrid vs Barcelona of chess if Hikaru gets smashed every time
Exactly. If it wasn't for his twitch fame this matchup wouldn't be nearly as important
They went to tiebreaks. What do you think Tiebreaks mean?
Hint: It's hidden in the word.
@@manangupta1902 tbh magnus isn't even in his best form as he is preparing for candidates not mention if this was magnus from a few yrs ago this would have ended way sooner

I like how Hikaru is Harry Potter and Magnus is Voldemort based on the wand colors lol
I was excited for the games but now I just wanna see more of these fancy shirts
Next episode nothing but half an hour zoom on those bananas por favor
I love these recap videos. I don't have the time to watch these live, so you help me keep track of this tourney.
Your videos are amazing, I wish i had such a good understanding in the game like you so I could enjoy games like this myself. Keep the good work!
Basically, for Magnus to win this tournament, he needs Wesley So to lose. For some reason, he’s done poorly in head-to-head against Wesley when it comes to after the prelims
do you think "so" .d
12:33 “it’s actually well known.” Me: CAPTURE THE KNIGHT HOW COULD YOU MISS THAT? Oh nvm
Thank you for the great analysis and commentary! Great video

Very good videos , thanks for the content Levy
Huge respect for you bro! Ur a beast, stream all day and put out what looks like an amazing video! Keep it up man
Sadly missed the livestream but these rapid fire recaps makes it not so bad. thanks levy
Ofcourse we knew Magnus was gonna win but the blitz against Hikaru was just beyond brutal.
Seeing as both you and Eric are my favourite chess streamers/youtubers i love the casual rosen mentions
I've learnt with each game in these recaps. Thank you Levy.
Don’t you just hate it when you’re playing Magnus Carlsen and you forget the main line to very theoretical opening?

Short answer: Magnus.
Long answer: Magnus Carlsen.
Thx for the spoiler🖕

Imagine winning the preliminaries just to get knocked out from the quarter finals. hard luck for fabi i mean of all people number 8 had to be ian talk about bad luck
tbh everyone who was lower seed won 🤸♀️
Sucks for fabi but makes interesting viewing.
Could have been Magnus

Hikaru straight choked. He’s a great player but he clearly can’t keep his emotions in check.
ua-cam.com/video/XZdC7S3zxZM/v-deo.html
i was in live and i have no idea how you have all this energy to commentate te matches and after that to recap all of this on yt. Love you from Italy Levy
Such an incredible first round! I love the way Hikaru and Magnus went blow for blow like that. Just two Super Grandmasters fighting to the bitter end. Each win forcing the other to push harder the next game. Then the Blitz rounds showcased the brutality of Magnus and his ability to shut the opponent down completely. For a while, I was cheering for Hikaru, but damn, the Champ really held everything. Giri/Radjabov was a bit disappointing, but then again, I didn't want either one to get knocked out. MVL/So was kind of wacky to me. And then there's Fabi/Ian. Had my heart crack a bit during that French endgame.
Now, for the semi's and finals, honestly, I don't want Ian vs Carlson. We will get plenty of them later this year, and I don't think either one wants to spoil their prep prematurely. Even then, it would still be the most hype outcome of the players left, IMO. Anyway, you're doing awesome at commentary and content, Levy.
I gotta admit I'm happy that Magnus won, I hope he stays on top as long as he can
"What super GM does on the board ?"
Me : ummm.. eating sand ?
great commentary. keep up the awesome work
fantastic recap. thank you!
Even though Hikaru lost
He litteraly doesnt care
NOT REALLY, HIS SOUL IS RIPPED APART
When your a few minutes late to Gotham’s amazing video
:((((((
at least you get some nice comments :)_
Thank you! I was waiting fie this upload since finishing yesterdays video.
Here before 30k now ur at 1mil. Been watching your chess content from the start (ish) keep on going!
If you see how easily Hikaru destroys literally everyone, it's nothing short of terrifying that Magnus seems to always beat him in matches
Bring back the hoodies. My eyes.
He looks good without it . Shush 🤫
Such a great recap Levy!
“UA-cam is superior”
-Levy, during that one episode where Twitch kept making the same joke over and over.

Levy the last few videos have been some of your best commentary ever. You're a HUGE role model for engaging commentary and force of personality. Keep up the amazing work, you are appreciated. The knowledge that you pass on has turned this 1100 into a 1300 :)
Edit: also your shirts are incredible. Have you seen the crab shirt on The Bay by a Fish Named Fred? Seems like your style
Over 400k, those are crazy numbers, congrats bro
I really love these cool thumbnails and also our Levy!
Levy honestly rocks any shirt he wears in his live streams or YT videos
Levy please make a video dedicated to castling and the timing of when best to do it. love the content just bought your e4 course
Hey Levy, just saying you're always appreciated. Love your recaps!
Thank you so much for the vid, keep them coming
Loved that ending flourish in the first Hikaru/Magnus game
I'm new to your channel,very good description and very funny!
That 1st Blitz between Naka and Karlsen had almost the same type of end game moves as in the Guess the Elo episode.
That bishop maneuver and sacrificing other bishop for a knight to remove the guard of the h7, is the same as in that episode.
Levy, I really appreciate your efforts , your contribution to people in need.
Btw i love ur vids 😁
Almost at Million my friend! 👏🏻👏🏻
Love you levy , you're the best chess teacher,I've been with you since 98 k subscribers on UA-cam and have sharing and recommending your work throughout. Idk if you'll see this?but you're the reason I'm 1800 now from literally starting from 700 at the beginning.thank you.so much.
