Future Grandmasters. It was on honor to meet so many of you in Dallas, took hundreds of photos, signed countless boards, and played a few games against talented kids. Journey to world chess champ continues…
This dude is the only reason why I’m even interested in chess, because I just love how blunt and upfront he is. He’s obnoxious but in an entertaining way.
Congrats Hans. Hikaru is a great chess player but he also owes you an apology, as do most of the chess commentators, for being very unfair to you during the tantrum Magnus had calling you a cheater. I won't hold my breath. I expect you to let chess speak for itself!
@@Sjemdjdneje8383i watched the whole game, and Magnus got punished for taking a stupid line. Nothing preposterous about Hans’ performance. Made me lose a lot of respect for Magnus.
Incredible performance by Hans, but he should mention that Vidit in CLASSICAL is a different beast that might eat his lunch after taking the money. And they played a faster format. So, settle down a bit.
Rooting for you Hans, all the haters should know that you're letting chess speak for itself. Putting in the hard work to get better, I'm newer to chess and learning a lot with your vids
especially considering that the chess community made hans a pariah based on lies told by magnus which he never apologized for and he's still out here being a normal superGM after being blacklisted by collusion. rather than gaining respect for hans, i have lost all respect for the so-called chess federation. it's not about the game of chess, it's abou the business they created on top of a game that is more than they deserve.
Hans, these games were great. It was such a good format and your performance made it a great night to be a Hans fan! The commentary was great besides a few technical difficulties. Congrats man, proud of you.
Incredible performance by Hans, but he should mention that Vidit in CLASSICAL is a different beast that might eat his lunch after taking the money. And they played a faster format. So, settle down a bit.
yea the chess community really showed its ass over this. it's like your uncle who has a huge successful business and you know there's something off about him but the whole family is afraid to say anything bad about him because he has familial, community, and financial clout, but then you catch him diddling your cousin at a party he threw and it all makes perfect sense. FIDE and especially St. Louis are simply corporate profiteers ruining an ancient pastime. capitalism ruins everything it touches.
You never cease to surprise me, Hans. Vidit was a very worthy opponent. Not only did he beat Hikaru but he won the Grand Swiss tournament on the Isle of Man and was in he Candidates tournament. Plus he’s higher rated. Your play is very impressive.
I liked "set" 3, games 2, 6 and 9. Hans showed a lot more variety than Vidit, but Vidit showed a great ability to defend and counter-attack. He also showed that at certain times a queen trade would really reduce the strength of Hans middle-game play. That was especially helpful for Hans future development. Clearly, Hans also came away with a great respect for Vidit and his individual style skills. Matches are always different from tournaments in that way. Great match. Very entertaining. Thanks, Hans for making it happen. The whole chess world has learned a thing or two about real creativity with this.
Congrats Hans!! It may not be easy with how much the community hates you and all the misinformation others throw out against you just for clout, but just remember the majority of people root for the underdog, and your the underdog. Financially it may be difficult as well, hopefully this tournament will help with that. Good luck to all your future endeavors!
As a future Grandmaster with great pattern recognition, I can confirm that the Gatorade tactic was the real deciding factor. Only Hans and I (Future Grandmaster) are capable of seeing that.
@@olsenduran1019 ChessbaseIndia's YT channel had an interview with Hans after he won, and he mentioned that the Gatorade gave him the boost he needed at the end.
It was a good match and a well-deserved win. I wish it took place a bit earlier, as I had to catch the rest of it today. But considering the way the 2/2 format started, it showed great composure to not get rattled and mount such a fantastic comeback. Congratulations!
"He beat Hikaru twice, and I beat him... so I must be better than Hikaru!"🤣🤣🤣 . Bro, the way Hans is Mrktng is a whole different level. He is the Mcgregor of chess. Or Mayweather (marketingwise). Congrats.
Ever since you beat Magnus Ive been looking forward to all the games where you will face top GMs and win and there have been plenty so far each one proving any doubters wrong and this match against Vidit is one of the highlights so far, bravo Hans.
Worry less about Hikaru to be truly happy. Just keep bettering yourself! You will have an amazing career. They were wrong we know it. You'll be the bigger man! They owe you an apology. We know it. Just be successful that shows everybody with no words.
Ben Finegold once said Hans' chances of being World Champion are the same as Levy becoming a GM. With how well Levy did in his comeback tournament and how well Hans does against top players, maybe he was right.
Levy offered to commentate the next one of these events that you host. Would be very beneficial to have his platform/voice promoting and involved in the event.
Hans ! How is your Mom!! Most of us remember the story you told of yr Mom spending $1000 just for you to enter a Tournament, even though she didn't have much!! Hence, that story is so inspiring ,for, soon you will the the best player in the World Earning $Millions! Good for you Hans! I'm your biggest Fan! (From Rags to Fame)--It's Happening!! 🙏💪✌
Hans Niemann is the one person that is able to dethrone Magnus Carlsen as the greatest chessplayer of all time! You can really feel the determination in every single word Hans says.
Congrats to Hans. A huge step in the right way for your re-establishment on the chess community and returning to your rightful place. But I don't understand the obsession of his fans with Hikaru.
Talk about Levy and how have forgiven him and the two of you will now become bffs streamers and make alot of Money together. Seriously tho Hans.....PLZ PLZ PLZ forgive levy and start working with him. He was literally begging on chessindia last night that he wants you and him to be cool....😢😢😢😢😢
I would have more respect for Levy if he would have reported the Hikaru / Alireza drama. When there was any drama regarding Hans, Levy was right on it. However when it is Hikaru, he keeps quiet. It feels like there is some double standard at play. Sure, from a business perspective I can understand why he would not want to report on Hikaru.
@@Shadow-7295exactly watch him just ignore this huge match between Hans and vidit too I have been commenting under Levi’s videos for the last week about the Hikaru situation and got no responses or interactions with my comments at all I’m honestly starting to suspect the use of bots under his RUclips comments sections cuz they are always the same, bro fell off, spoiler blocker etc genuinely don’t want to sound like the mad lad Vladimir Kramnik but he might be right about some things
@@agahuseynov7608 I have no idea but I have seen and experienced crazy stuff on the Inet most people wouldn't believe. So I know what is possible and actually being done. The problem for me is at the end that Hans got banned by the U.S. chess club for 2024 and not receiving invitations with one of the reasons given his problematic behavior. However with Hikaru all kinds of shit is being tolerated and accepted. Can't wait to see Hans beating Hikaru in a big tournament!
Incredible performance by Hans, but he should mention that Vidit in CLASSICAL is a different beast that might eat his lunch after taking the money. And they played a faster format. So, settle down a bit.
Actual genius play by Hans to mention this in the same breath that he must be better than Hikaru given Hikaru's reputation for being a blitz / rapid beast. Controversy will just make more engagement on the video.
@SELECT289 What are you saying? And it was hans himself who made that comparison so you'd be just as convinced if he said he almost outperformed God? Lol let the public speak dork. Great performance, Hans is a force. Vidit is just not comparable in blitz to his classical I don't think.

Congrats on a very nice win. Vidit is one strong opponent.

agreed, it's clear as day that the likelihood that he was cheating against Magnus is incredibly low.
It's hicryu

But he is a cheater ? 😮
@@Gogetajob36996 Zero proof of cheating OTB and Magnus lost OTB (not online). Never forget that Magnus behaved like a moron.
"He beat Hikaru and I beat him, so I must be better than Hikaru". Classic logic bro!! I love it!!
It's hicryu
LOL
its same as prag beat magnus and hikaru beat prag both in classical , so means hikaru is better then magnus
did he say he's better than hikaru? sad jealous hater who invents stupid logic and tries to give it to someone else hahaha
@@zhihanpeng7033 Who cares, Hans will fold Hikaru in time
hikaru must be absolutely shook -no 30k, no win against Vidit

pro tip - drop your annual membership by $0.99 so it is exactly $64
How does that help?

Congratulations Hans, spreading so much of negativity against someone always backfires at some point. Glad people are rooting for you.
hans is massively underrated even at 2700. gonna be nice when the goat is +2mil USD and +50 elo in a couple of months.🐐
Hans has some way to go yet, brilliant, needs to improve consistency, but i'm delighted with this result.
Had fun watching this match on ChessBase India - looking forward to your other matches this summer.
Congratulations! What you are doing is amazing. I look forward to following your journey.
Im so happy to see Hikaru Cacamura being cooked by Firouza and Hans 😂
The most obnoxious chess player
hahaha
Congratulations Hans!! This is yet another achievement on your path to becoming the World Champion🙏🏼‼️🖤
I have lost a ton of respect for Hikaru after the whole hikaru vs alireza debacle and have gained a lot more respect for you

Bro also got kidnapped like Levy 🙏
congrats! I wish this game had been streamed/promoted more widely, I only found it in a community post after it happened - hopefully in future
Hans is the most underrated and discounted of all the elite players. Once he becomes more consistent against less talented players he will become WCC!

Need more collaborations with Evergreen Chess you and Brookly Dave going at it at the press conference was hilarious
I’m not going to lie this is a huge deal. Vidit is extremely strong. Good on you hans brilliant event extremely entertaining.
lol the Hikaru trolling is the best.
Congrats ,Hans🔥🔥
Hans analyses games like a noob
Congrats! Congrats to Vidit too! But above all for allowing this event to take place. And I hope there will be more. I look forward to following you!
You talked the talk and walked the walk.
He let the chess speak for itself
Congrats Hans!! Glad you're also using the far superior Lichess for analysis.
