I check this because Gotham said he lives in a giant house.
Same just came from the analysis.
It might be bc Gotham is from New York and Westly lives in Minnesota. The average house size is much different.
This dude was living in a shack in the Philippines 10 years ago, and now he is living in a mansion, feelsgoodman
Exactly
@@backwardsyellowcarinapizza1562 it's because So is multi-time US champion and one of the best chess players ITW and he is way richer than Gotham :|
CHESS24: "Guys, we need a home tour from all of you"
Hikaru: "Alright guys, this is the 50 million dollar TSM facility... "
150 million IIRC
Oh Gosh 😂😂
PogO
I need more GM's house tour!!
i need a house like a GM
@@aryanjain6631 true
Naka will probably start the tour in one place and move during the video 😅 he moves around so frequently
@@aryanjain6631 LOL yes good comment
@@Jan_ne LOL
Wesley So seems like such a warm hearted kind person. I once sent him an email encouraging him and he responded straight away even though he was in the middle of a tournament.
How did you get his maiil?
Hahaha, that's so him I immediately believe it
@@BeFourCM name ?
@@aymen_zelda wesleyso.com/
you can find it just by googling him
I did the same a few years ago. He also responded immediately. He's awesome!
Imagine at 16 years old Wesley was broke, alone with no family, squatting in abandoned buildings on the streets of the Philippines, now look at him. A champion with a great humble heart. Go Wesley!
Abandoned and ignored by philippine chess officials. Good on ya Wesley. No regrets in restarting a life in the US. His story is deeper than what people know now. Struggle, heartache and pain. Redemption in the end.
@@winstongumangan6641 Drive to succeed too....having it too easy in life is death to motivation.
@@winstongumangan6641 A blessing in disguise cause in the Philippines, sports politics is very obvious, one favored the other if you do not tow the line...
Opportunity went his way when he was admitted in the US CHESS FEDERATION.
Now everything went well for GM SO, the FIRST FISCHERDOM WORLD CHESS CHAMPION BEATING NO OTHER THAN CURRENT FIDE WORLD CHESS CHAMPION - MAGNUS CARLSEN...
@@winstongumangan6641 He was not abandoned though. He received 40K pesos a month from Govt as part of national athlete. But I agree that is not enough to lure him to stay.
Ph only cares about basketball
One of the nicest chess players
On par with Ding Liren
Levon, anish, mvl,vishi
@Tyler Jonashe's the owner of chess24 bro
The nicest player imo
Are there like mean chess players? I bet they're not that scary 🙂
Who came from Gotham's brilliant voice over?
I didn't lol
@@Unscripted9 too bad he's more like the cringe kid
Bruh stop hating on gotham he just wants to help you guys at chess.
@@fishymakesart2133 bruh, hes always fangirling over hikaru.
And his commentary is not that very helpful to beginners
Wesley just comes across as a genuinely nice guy. He's probably the only player that I root for against almost everyone. He doesn't seem to have the typical chess player arrogance and always seems very humble and thankful for his blessings. His style isn't exactly my favorite, but his disposition makes him one of my favorite players right now.
Out of curiosity what don't you like about his style?
I didn't say I didn't like his style, only that it isn't my favorite. I'm a fan of dynamic chess...Kasparov, Alekhine, of today's GMs, Nepomniatchchi, Firouzja. Wesley is very solid, which works at the upper-GM levels and makes him hard to beat, which is a plus. But I've seen him draw some games by holding on to solidity when a more active approach would have given him the full point instead of the half point. It's the reason why Carlsen is the best in the world right now. When he feels he has an advantage, he will grind it out until you submit.
@@AlexanderNevermind888 I really like Nepo as well. Thanks for elaborating
I like this part of the video where Wesley shows his chess pieces like a kid showing his favourite toys ❤️
Leaving the Philippines team was the best decision for this guy.
"He is a female cat"
LOL😂😂
This is female cat
Thought i was hearing things
He said 'she is a female cat' but because of his accent u heard it as 'he is a female cat'....Anyways u understood what he was telling so now the errors don't matter
i would have said the same thing ( female cat instead of " it " ) because english is not my firt language. same thing for Wesley. english is not his first language
It's common for ESL Filipinos to mix up some English pronouns. My dad will sometimes describe my sister as "he" when speaking English.
When Magnus used the "bongcloud" joke opening against Wesley, he could have taken it as disrespectful. Instead he laughed and had such a great sense of humor about it. I've really been rooting for him ever since that happened.
Then I suppose u are rooting for hikaru too xdd
@@BeFourCM bruh who told you that.
Only once that has happened, between a major tournament between magnus and hikaru.
You speaking as if it's become as common as openings
0:52 not sure if he was talking about the cat or me
😂😂
😂😂
I love how this tour showed us like 3 rooms of the house and then he just showed us all his chess sets
Through the Key Hole with Wesley So. Absolutely beautiful home, not a bad lifestyle for these top players but I'd say that it is well earned. He could write a book called 'Reside Like a Grandmaster!'.
This is actually the home of his adoptive family. When his parents abandoned him in Manila as a teenager, he was able to get to the US on a scholarship, and found a family in Minnesota that legally adopted him.
@@LeoStaley Thats sad, I didn't knew about Him being abandoned and adopted, after all he deserved the win.
@@arthur1596 what's even more saddening is that he was the only abandoned in his family, his mother took all the other siblings to Canada with her, i imagine what he went through.
Wesley So is an American. USA is very proud of him. He is pride of USA and Americans love him. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸
She Filipino
He's filipino born but represents America, to be clear
An amazing genius with a beautiful heart and most importantly a good human being , what a guy!!
Wesley seems like a chill person.
Thank you Gotham for letting us know the existence of this video, or else I wouldn't know Wesley has cats 😂😂
You are blessed, Wes. Thank you for inviting us into your beautiful home.
I'm also here because of gotham chess
We love you Wesley, stay sweet and humble as you are. Congratulations on winning the Skilling Open and praying and hoping you will be World #1 when the right time comes. God bless you continually for His glory!
If you're good with your craft and you put passion on it, this is what you get. Good job Wesley.
He is rich, smart and humble.
thanks Gotham for mentioning that amazing house and Wesley So who is so kind it seems. Lovely.
We need a GoFundMe to get Wesley out of poverty. So sad that he lives in such destitute squalor.
😂
@Gabriel Madan You have zero sense of humor.
I think Wesley is happy now and contended his earning. For your information this boy don't grow up in poverty. His mother is a Certified public accountant and work as an director in office Dellasalle hospital in Phillipines. His father is an engineer. They move out of the country for the sake of Chess career and future of Wesley. Could not achieve by staying a third world country
r/woooshhh
I think it should be SoFundMe..
Magnus home pls
It's probably just a huge trophy cabinet
Just look at a chess board. Its his home.
he lives in a castle above the clouds of norway
One of the rare gms to knock out magnus in a chess tournament!!
Chess960 world champ!!
Levy sent me here again
my favorite GM! Beautiful home, Wesley. Would love to have seen the kitchen! my favorite room in the house.
congrats GM Wesley So US Chess Champion 2021back to back ... from proud Filipino Chess player
We need the Jan Gustafsson house tour.
A very humble GM chess player and a beautiful big house. Congratulations Wesley So for being the first Skilling tournament champion!
That house is comfy asf. 10/10 would chess in
Strongest 10 Chess Grandmasters Ever 1970-2020 ruclips.net/video/3nZir7yxyjs/видео.html
One of the nicest GMs
Mr Wesley So just feels so humble ...👍🏼
0:36 "I've never been to Australia or to Aff..." (realizes he's been to Africa)
Wesley is someone that I'm always rooting for! He's the nicest guy in the world!
Thanks for welcoming us to your home. ❤️ Your cats!
Nice one kabayan.you'll never regret your decision leaving the philippines.your chess carreer in US is very promising compare here in our hometown.politics and corruption here is disgusting.we support you wesley, you are our man.good luck!!
Agreee
I agree.
Nice. That is a huge upgrade from your early chess days! Live the dream, bro!
He won against magnus, amazing!!!!
Bonita casa y un entorno muy agradable para jugar el ajedrez . Nice guy Wesley so. Me gustó que muestre sus piezas de ajedrez y sus libros.
The editing has improved.
Lmao
Waiting for Vidit's home tour!
one of my memorable in my chess life is nung natalo ko si Wesley So sa Tournament sa circle sa QC I think Grade 4 pa lang siya nun di ko siya kilala nun kasi first time ko lang din siya nakita. just sharing lang.
1:38 There is a sad lore about this that only the people who truly knows wesley so.
I knew nothing about Wesley So before clicking this video, 1 minute into the video I was a bit confused with his accent and knowing him to be a "US Chess Champion". I came across an interview chess.com did with him called 'Chess Was A Way Out' and it's a very touching article I recommend everyone to read his story!
the music makes understanding him harder
Levy (Gotham chess) was right! The house is SOOO huge. Good for Wesley))
Wesley you makes us happy ❤️❤️🤗
0:23 The camera man is laughing. they having a great time.
I love wesley so hes an amazing human that deserves this lifestyle

Very Humble Guy..

Wesley So is fun to watch him play
You are my idol Wesley so. I have a picture with you @ dad's world buffet during sccop sa kamayan
Most humble chess player !
Very nice place
Love the house, ofc I'm from Gotham. (Shame on me to have skipped to the Hans game)

Wow that's such a nice looking house :O

Beautiful house 🏠
Putting Minnesota on the map!
Damn. This guy sure make good money playing chess. Look at that house!
Wesley seems So nice.
I love that shofar God bless you brother.

What a cool guy
November in Minnesota and he has flipflops without socks?
he sounds like disguised toast and I love it
0:49 "how dare you wake me up do you wanna die is that it?" ..... lol 🤣
Super talented 👏 👌
Wesley's doing alright I guess. Honest work, pays the bills.
1.Who lives In Minnesota
2. That’s a killer crib
3. He’s living the dream
I just bought a chess set from your sister today, she was kind enough to give me your signature as well. I had no idea she was your sister when I bought it haha.
lmao he said on stream today she was selling his old sets
Ok chess 24, i volunteer as sound guy for everything you do.
'So' good

Thank you
strong chess player, nice house, nice player.
Damn he really does have a giant house
Hope in my next life I become a chess GM. 🙏😎
This guy has an entire castle what
Damn, Levy wasn't kidding !
So proud of you, Wesley. Kawalan ka talaga sa Pilipinas. Mas malaki kasi funds ng mga hindi nananalong basketbolista kesa sa mga athletes na mind games ang gamit.
