Hikaru has been staring at the ceiling since the start of his career 😭😂

Chess commentary is something i never thought I'd enjoy so much and i would say danya is the person that brings hype to the table like no other

[@Kitcomedy]

danya has a chess intuition like no other. magnus called him the greatest bullet 1 | 0 player. danny rensch said he was probably the worlds leading expert in cheating in chess but he never really talks much about it

[@daw764]

Danya….Commentary Gold 100

[@bambulbee123]

2008 and Hikaru already had Stockfish on the ceiling.

Hikaru" "I don't like my position here but I thinking it's still winning..."

[@movdqa]

I wish that there were more Danya matches - commentary is great but Danya's a great speed player in his own right.

[@aebalc]

Available technology? Hell this was as bad as the Zapruder film.

[@harryh2185]

Hikaru's rating was 2670 at the time.

[@bills6009]

Maybe staring at the ceiling gives brain points

[@jackocarina8007]

I think its the other way around haha

[@AGT0M]

James Bond: "Shocking..."

[@harryh2185]

Classic chess footage

[@vaibhavmevada9668]

Please make a video where magnus,hikaru,giri,etc plays against mittens as a team please

[@fietae]

Dude hikaru tied mittens by himself

[@lil----lil]

I cannot believe how long you've been commentating.

[@jebbush3130]

4:34 Hikaru puts the fallen piece on the wrong spot.

[@noblehelium3794]

No, that's just his next move. Rxf4+ Kxe6 Re4+ Kd7 Notice he hits the clock right after placing the rook.

[@MrLinuxFreak]

7:30 wtf happend there

[@eightgray]

Why call it a surprise mate? There is no mate and no surprise

[@urcobramartin-i4t]

Nice game

[@被綁架了請幫忙]

why did you add Mittens and why you made his/her elo 1?

[@14-Peaks]
