Imagine having the balls to trashtalk Hikaru!
I love seeing Hikaru in these. Coffee Chess's chill but banterful manners really suit him in a wholesome way, in my opinion.
lol@ that king move from Carlini. Playing that against one of the top GMs in the world.
This is terrible lol
Is Hikaru engaged? What is that ring?
Very good match with knight G4. (Edit), …Subscribed.
get em carl
the greatness: I will get him
3:00 Hikaru is simply playing the classical rules. If the middle is locked by pawns, you attack the sides. So, Hikaru is sending his pawns up the side, to the enemy King. I don't know why Carlini manually castled into that side, knowing this. What Carlini needed to do, is break the middle, and get his bishop into the game. They may be even in material on the board, but hikaru has two active knights in the middle and on attacking side… while Carlini has only one active knight, and he blunders and moves it away to the opposite side of the attack, leaving his bishop locked behind pawns. He simply has no defenders against all the pawns storming up the board on Kings side. He's behind in active material, and of course he will lose.
What does that white longsleeve say in the background? XANAY SPINNEP?
Can anyone explain what happened at 7:36?
At 6:35 would pawn to c4 have been a better move than what he eventually played?
Hey Hikaru. You should give them a "get out of jail free card" that they can use to make one of your moves for you. That should even it out. Haha
i know the rules of chess but have no idea whats happening but like seeing the joy these guys have
Love the vibe FROM NAKAMURA, CHILLING, LAUGHING, DRINKING A COFFE, PLAYING GOOD GAMES AND OFC THE PINEAPPLE T-SHIRT.
Hikaru moves at 3:38, Dave-" That's what I would have done." LOFL !! 🤣
when Naka asks what your rating is you should be proud cause you played well
😄😅😂😂🤣 the funniest EVER!! "Quiet you! I haven't been mated yet! I can see things here! Ok that's good. MATE 🤣Thanks Hikaru! Thanks to you, I am loving CHESS more than usual!
I heard War of the Worlds at 6:27. These guys still continue to play for a win… savage!
Best crossover ever.
⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕⭕
What the hell happened at 7:38?
🐐🐐🐐
"what's your rating?"
"2200"
"Okay yeah"
Mr Hikaru
Great guy
good games, funny to watch
i need to know that background music , anybody????
magnus is going to walk up lmfaooooo
“What’s your rating” quite guy mumbles something “okay yeah” savage
what was this guys rating i think hikaru asked at the end but didnt catch it
Anyone catch the glances at 5.58 after after Hikaru's move. They both knew what Hikaru had done lol
I’m so intensely annoyed by the guy on the left
how much the elo of this old man in internet or in real life please
Yo the game was good but what about the dude waking up in the window? 7:51
Genuine Question: when you ask what do want to play against? Is that meaning for what the person would like to be challenged from to grow, or from “I’m giving you a handicap.”
I love chess games on the street where literally anyone can play
Isn't that an illegal move at 7:38? Pretty sure he took a pawn from a position he can't move to.
Carlini was fun. Why didn’t he take with the queen in the beginning? Haha he made it fun and that’s cool.
Hikaru is like brother
Haha asian against asian
Hey Naka out of all the players who gave you the hardest challenge.
parang c BLKD ah
this is more fun than hikaru playing with actual gms
"What's your rating?"
That's RESPECT people!!!!!
This new way of introduction was amazing
Great work Coffee Chess
Btw big fan carlini sir
ALOT of people don't understand that move. 🤣
