SCC: Hikaru vs. Ian! Paris & Alireza Await The Winner | !tix

Hikaru Alireza Hans Magnus.... Dear lord... Please bring Kramnik and Jospem and lock the room for 24hrs only vodka to drink for Maximum Pressure

Danya got sacked because he cant hide his Bias. A commentator should always be netural if you cant be neutral you should not be casting. Odds Magnus 90 % Hans 10%, Alireza 60% Hikaru 40%

Hikaru's still got it, but it seems like him and Magnus are less dominant this year?

Anyhow, support and amplify Jill Stein 2024 💚

See how they muted the Russian flag but not that Zionist. Truely said by Hans, the abusive and selective use of power.

I appreciated the commentators, and the interviews were great. Also, good chess!

bring back danya. Dany is shitttt！

Only magnus can match hikaru when it comes to bullet..you need to have +3 pts ahead of naka before entering 1+1 time

Can't stand that old dude on the left commentating bring back danya chess mafia

The queens gambit declined transposed into accepted... just call it queens gambit renegotiated

Danya, please and thank you. Give us Danya

Naka's in Paris

Its gonna be harder for Hikaru to cheat in the semi-finals when he is over the board... wanker

Why the hell did they do this so late

Please please stop using Danny Rensch for these big games. This is not at all a hateful comment but David, Danya, and Tanya are all far far far better options. It makes my heart sink to see he will be commenting for 4 hours on such amazing match ups. I hope the channel considers this constructive feedback.

Nothing against Danny Rench, but please no.

If he doesn't meme with the bong cloud... Missed opportunity

He didn’t say Paris France. He just said Paris. Alleluia ! By all means as an American say Paris Texas but not Paris France

Danny Rensch is so good at knowing when an average human doesn't understand winning positions and goes over to the analysis board while other commentators think it might be obvious and don't think about showing move sequences. Or they just don't think about showing sequences at all.

Danny is saving money by commentating himself by replacing Danny

bruh replace danny with danya please lol

FREE DANYA !

!tix

free danya

congrats naka!

Rensch is insufferable! They have several commentators most of them are great. Why do they have this dude ever commentating?

A Magnus vs Hikaru show down is what I'm praying for today.

"Smart chess" predictions is not very smart

Hikaru up 3 points with 9 minutes to go in bullet gave him a 79% chance of winning the match. It literally should be like 99.9% at that stage. I bet it had nepo favored as well when he was ahead 4.5-1.5
Smh

Magnus 95-5 is accurate and the only reason it was 5 is just in case nepo had the start that he had. Otherwise its <1%

What a great 5+1 half. IAN was so dominate.

What a comback for Hikaru....All one needs to do is change their shirt 😀

I don't recall many over-the-board bullet tournaments, and am not so sure I want to see them smashing hands together in the time scrambles. If their ratings are comparable to their online ratings, Magnus should win by about 19-9 with about 99% odds, but I wonder if there won't be significant equalization of speed in manual moves? Also, if online ratings reflect actual reality, which I do not expect, Hikaru is expected to defeat Firouzja 16-12 with 83% odds.

I heard the rioters in Europe say they will stop when Danya is released allegedly.

FREE DANYA! 😂😂🙏🙏🔥🔥

'with the exception of two players i think i can probably dominate in bullet' Hikaru Nakamura

I realise Danny loves his job, and he isn't awful at it, I just don't feel he adds anything in commentary. He performs as a colour commentary person, which just isn't useful for chess here where we really want to understand what is happening.

The haters in the chat are outrageous.

Danny. Mr Rensch. You are loved! Hess and Danny is the dream team! ❤ I guess people just hate fun or something

The shorter the time control the better the Hikaru

Two guys sitting there and ruined the stream

Firoujza vs nieman

1. g3 is already trolling for Magnus, so he just answered

Those long slow transitions often cause us to miss their post-game reactions, and miss more stuff during games.

75mins for 5min games = 7.5 games, assuming zero increment
25mins for 1min games = 12.5 games, assuming zero increment

Ian won the match. Hikaru can stick to flag-chess.
