Such huge props to Alejandro for his work throughout this tournament coverage, absolute class act 👍
Yeah. Alejandro is gonna be a perennial feature of Han's nightmares for years after this!
I am always happy not to see Ashley. I like Alejandro.
Ale Alejandro
Chess newbie here. Loved Alejandro. Does he do this kind of fig regularly?
@@allybrough he says at the end of the video he's been doing commentary for sinquefield cup since it started in 2013!
More props to Alejandro....Guy stood out as someone who has been doing this for 20 years. He is undoubtedly in his element.
Alejandro hast torpedoed himself to be my favourite chess commentator in this tournament. He's very entertaining, keeps asking the right questions, takes the community serious and isn't afraid to step on some toes. All around great guy.
From the two, Alejandro is the one who uses a comp and is not a cheater for that.
Alejandro and Hans talking like they're good friends during this interview... it was very hartwarming to watch ♥
“The tennis speaks for its self!!”- Alejandro
🤣🤣
The Tennis speaks for itself. Hilarious. Great placement Alejandro. 5 Stars.
I find Hans' candor, extremely refreshing
The amount of attention Hans has captured is amazing. Now important tournaments might consider calling Hans to play as he is more likely to get more audience and thus more profit. This might turn out really well for Hans.
I started watching more closely the tournaments now because of Hans. he's so weird and unusual, I love it.
he's brought back old fans too. i was burnt out from chess after the whole lack of OTB for 2 years during covid then the nepo-magnus debacle then magnus dropping out of the world cup... chess had lost it's shine and was becoming a bit dull for me. the last tournament i'd watched before this was the world champs. now im back and eagerly awaiting the Julius Baer event next week. no matter which side of the fence you're on it's hard to deny that's it's breathing some life back into the sport after the funk of the last few years.
@@KahurangiSteez let's go... can't wait till Sunday
Yeah, Hans should thank Magnus and Hikaru for this
@@jevitigre Agreed! There’s no such thing as bad publicity
Mr. Sinquefield should organize a tournament with Firouzja, Erigaisi, Gukesh, Abdusattorov, Keymer, and Niemann representing the juniors, and Carlsen, Ding, Nepo, So, Naka, and Caruana representing the seniors. Let's see how these top 10 greats (especially Magnus) handle the pressure from the young guns.
very good suggestion.. it will be fascinating to watch
Where is Anish Giri??? Why wasn't he at this tournament, and why didn't you list him?!
@@seanybuckets His play just isn't in the same level as those above. He's a great player for sure, but his results are heavily dependent on his opening preparation.
@@spwnker8550 you do know that Giri is a 2800 player, and was a childhood prodigy that raced from 2100 to 2700 at record speed, right?
@@nilsp9426 oh so Anish is currently higher than some of the players at this event, in classical OTB rating? Maybe he couldn't come for some reason, I wonder if he was invited.
Truly one of the tournaments of all time.
People are being way too hard on Hans. There is simply no proof that he cheated in this tournament. None whatsoever. No one should face such allegations and accusations without proof. Those accusations obviously affected his play. I like the fact that he says what he thinks in these interviews, and I hope we see him a lot in the future....
Yet, there is the saying, that past is prologue.
A True Champ wouldn't cheat at this beautiful game
Regardless if it's otb or online
@@boombbassa prove it
@@boombbassa Yes. Because if a person has once made a mistake they can never ever change.
Great analysis.
No concrete proof, at least
Hans will make a great tv personality in the future. Love watching his interviews.
i think thats why he stream on twitch, ive herd about him and the others and i just come from the normal pc gaming side of things. Its funny cus its not just chess fans here. The whole chess scene and gm's had a lot of interaction with pc gaming community since 2020
I do feel like this whole debacle helped to remove some of Hans ego n let his chess speak for itself... cheers to many yrs Hans🍻
Removing ego means removing the drive to improve. Magnus's move could've easily completely destroyed him as a player by removing his drive to play. Look at how Anna Rudolph quit playing at high level after the baseless allegations of cheating with her lipstick
And btw, it's possible that Hans won't recover from this. It's one thing to act tough, it's another to actually have that emotional connection to what you're doing. Without it, you're being a robot doing something senseless, and that kind of motivation is unlikely to cut it long term at the top level
@@NJ-wb1cz what? did that really happen??
Hans groupies speak for themselves and for those of us who think that a19 year old kid who acknowledges his mistakes and fight to make up for it deserves an opportunity to have a meaningful life.
You have to wonder. This tournament seems to have been a self promotion masterpiece, but then there will be fallout, so…
this is one of the tournaments in history
Yes and Hans is one of the chess players
The fact that his Magnus result was annulled and rest of the guys didn’t face the world champ did affect his overall standing. Still not a bad first super tournament, hope to see more of Hans in the future. Also this comment speaks for itself.
@@3rdrail931 is their a reward on his head? Dear or alive?
This is like an epic trilogy of movies settling down to an uneasy peace at the end of the first movie. This is far from over.
He looks like John McEnroe and The Joker had a child. Really brings some character in chess
I'm a fan now. F the haters.
He looks like jack harlow and mizkif had a baby lmao
I hope the drama doesn't follow Hans to the US Championship! Let the man play his best chess!
We got to see his best chess in the last 4 games
Maybe Magnus is just mad that Hans is getting all the ladies now.
A true champion, the one and only GOAT Hans
The GOAT of cheating
world champion even, or too much?
@@theantinatalismzone3982 OTB PROOF? NONE
@@theantinatalismzone3982 where's the evidence lmao
A True Champ wouldn't cheat at this beautiful game
Regardless if it's otb or online
Fifty percent, some of the better positions he got, and how he came back to draw a couple when he was down...against this group is great.
Is there an audio delay for anyone else?
Perfect for me here in NewZealand
There is for me it’s really annoying
*Hans is a legend haha!*
great interview!
Hans is a legend in the making
Miracle speaks for itself
The man, the legend.
*hahaha Alejandro is hilarious! And a great sport!*
Hans was so calm . The more he matures we could be looking at a potential world championship challenger in the future
What I see in Hans, first and foremost, is a Chess lover, someone who loves the game and is devoted to the game. I don't see a cheater at all.
Precisely my thoughts, man. He loves the sport rather obviously and wants to win fair and square
Hans is a very charming and honest person, as a chess player with that high rating, am sure he will be a force to reckon with in future chess championship cycles, watch out for this guy!
I stand with Hans !
Hans, continue focusing and producing wonderful chess. You can and will overcome. Stay stoic but flexible. Hopeful but cautious. You got this.
Kasey you're so sweet, 😋 go Hans!
Hans is a very lucid communicator when he's not discussing chess lines!
no
Love how the audio doesn’t match the video at all
consider the 15 min delay
what happend to Maurice BTW, he used to be as "Mr. Engine" part of the team and I do missed him...? Hans 4 gold. cheers
I'm pretty sure they had him for a short interview during this Sinquefield cup! It's on the Saint Louis chess club channel, and he answered this particular question :) if you wanna check it out
"Did you imagine scoring 50% against these 2700s?"
"No, I imagined scoring much higher than that."
The tennis speaks for itself 🤣
Did you see the look on Hnans' face when Nepo didn't take that pawn?
I hope Magnus makes a clarification soon regarding his cryptic tweet.
wtf is this video audio shift? and noone realized it in the comments?!
There rises a fighter
Can't wait to see Hans in next big tournament
Same
I don't think he will be invited to any
I mean a lot of the top players have negativity towards him
And magnus won't play if hans is playing and obviously all the organizers wld prefer magnus and other top players over hans
@@parthshah100 Tournaments will definitely invite Hans because of the views it will attract, Hans became a celebrity because of this!
@@jeremyrogers6179 actually no, tournaments don't need Hans' baggage, he will not be getting invited for a long time.
Hans will have to reach 2900 farming your local low security chess tournament.
Reflected and cautious this time, weighing words when answering, a clear sign of growth, while still being hilariously witty and entertaining overall, well done Hans.
the tennis speaks for itself hahahah
@@3rdrail931 get a life
Pretty funny that neither Nepo nor Alireeza could beat Hans even after his stockfish transmission stopped being useful because of the 15 minute delay.
If he has some sort of camera onboard the delay doesn't affect him.
@@conillet how the f does he have a camera with him that is just undetectable by every detecting device they have there?
@@LuisManuelLealDias It doesn't have to be a camera (which admittedly would have to be high-tech). Any method for him to send as well as receive would make the delay useless.
@@conillet pigeons!
what idiocy is this.
@@LuisManuelLealDias lookup sockfish
I went down a rabbit hole of watching previous Hans interviews and he seems to be a genuinely funny and honest guy who clearly wants to be the best in chess just like everyone else. The hate that he received is literally unprecedented in modern chess history. I hope people will be more careful before throwing out crazy conspiracy theories or other stuff in the future.
'Genuinely honest' is not the wording I'd use, but OK. It's not a crazy conspiracy to suspect someone of cheating if they have a history of cheating.
Unfortunately a lot of people who cheat are extremely charming and likable. I don’t think he cheated in this tournament but he definitely has cheated online and likely in some of his GM norm tournaments as well. How likable he seems and whether he’s been honest in his games are completely separate issues in my mind
The haters are out in force. Don't let them get you down Hans.
@@datapro007 Where's the "hate" you're speaking of? It's factually correct to say that Hans was less than honest about when he was banned from Chesscom for cheating online. His account was suspended 08/10/2020, so he was older than he said in the previous interview. The ban was only two years ago.
Furthermore, Chesscom claims Hans doesn't tell the truth about the "amount and seriousness" of cheating. Why should anyone trust a player that not only has cheated (and admitted it), but currently also seems to be lying about the extent of cheating?
None of that is "hate", c'mon.
@@IageF hater
Good for him!
What bothers me the most out of this whole shameful incident is the number of people who have come out of the woodwork with an extremely punitive self-righteous morality and an absolutely unjustified level of confidence in their own ability to identify cheating. Either one of those things is bad enough on its own, but when they are combined everything is just so toxic.
fix your audio?
GOAT!
🤣🤣🤣
@@kele22 🤣
I went from 700 to 2117 rating in 30 days with no beads.. lol.. .... in puzzles.. :D
This guy is so enchanting not like the other players
Encheating indeed
Hans allowed Nepo to survive today. how merciful🙏🏻
How are y’all gonna not ever release a single video that doesn’t have audio problems video problems or delays the entire tourney.
I agree it's true Hans Niemann suffered. However... so did everybody else!
Video with Hans gets more views than Aronian, So and Caruana. I don't know if Magnus destroyed his chess career, but I m quite sure he made his internet career.
Yeah he won't be called in future tournament. Go see him on9 cheating
@@mbagamingwala4581 go crawl back into your mom's basement with your baseless accusations. You're a cheater and a liar yourself.
@@mbagamingwala4581 shut up kid
because of the comment he made after beating magnus. The players you mentioned are more accomplished. remember when they were up and coming? same thing will happen to Hans. New players will come and they will be hot on the headlines too, in the end, they will be ranked on their accomplishments.
I just shoot! THIS GUY IS SO MORE CARISMATIC THAN CARLSEN.
Carlsen is just mad that every year his face folds more and more into itself. Soon he will look like a clam.
magnus walks with his anus clinched, so he's always under pressure
This cheating scandal that never was is the best thing that could of happened to Hanz... because of Magnus I know who he is and he's quite entertaining.
Know that he's a cheater too.
@@mbagamingwala4581 any proofs?
Yes he cheated in money tournament as well as in online games.
@@mbagamingwala4581 u mean the one when he was 12?
@@9181shreyasbhatt yes I meant that and also just 3 years ago when he was 16. Two times proved that he cheated. didn't know how many times he actually cheated. So the one who cheats is called a cheater.
I'm happy to see that critical thinking prevails and the top comments in this comment section are positive towards Hans. It's so good to see that most people believe in innocence until proven guilty and are not part of the witch hunt.
Interview was really great like almost every with Hans in it. I hope we can see him soon. He's a fun chess player and with his young age, he's more mature than some "other GM's" that are significantly older and should know better.
Hans Niemann.
Game, set and match.
hans has by far the best personality and farms the most engagement out of all the super GMs
hp[efully we see a lot more of him in the future
I learn a ton from your games Hans and from Magus. The big learn was know the critical moment. Thx all
Alejandro is the best!!
Alireza is adorable😍.. Hans is funny😎..
he likes to talk about miracles.
Rather then calling eight ball off two banks into the side pocket. I now just say this shot speaks for itself...lol
when mizkif be a GM
Hans GOATmann🐐🐐🐐
Idk when the drama of him cheating started since I just learned about it, but if it was during the tournament then I def think the drama got to him / affected him
Hans is a rebel, the world admires rebels.
Lol no one admires cheaters
Hans actually opened the reddit karma farmer's profile and reviewed it? Not the best usage of free time in the midst of a tournament but sure 😅
Chess needs more characters like hans
Hans sure did have a lot of "miracles" this tournament.
Let's go Hans! Cool lad
I gotta get raw at this so I can take over
Love Hans. He's a great young talent.
I only watch chess if Hans is playing
Be real, you aren’t watching even when he’s playing lmao
@@Bhubnipz I literally watched this tournament for Hans gameplay and interviews. Looking at livestream chat most people too.
Me too, Hans is the real star here! 🌟
Hans about to smash lmaoooo
is the audio out of sync for anybody else?
Oh yeah very annoying
I personally dont like Hans. The way he speaks and the way he presents himself are just bad vibes for me somehow.
But massiv respect for how he handled the situation in the last days. 19 yo, playing a super GM tournament and then THIS.
Damn
The outside help speaks for itself
How did they do it? Just curious.
• Hack Carlson's computers to examine his strategies.
• Run all Carlson's matches through an algorithm to predict
his moves/countermoves?
• Check his computer in the restroom?
Y'all think you're slick I really don't care what Hans did years ago all I cared about was the Sinquefield Cup in the game he played against Magnus over the board why y'all so focus on Hans you really should be focusing on Magnus and the reason he quit the tournament cuz all that matters is Hans beat Magnus you Magnus fans really hate that just deal with it
I realize something about Hans. Say what you want about him, but he strikes me as extremely attentive to detail and very analytic of his and his opponents' play. He picks up the nuances of his opponents' decision making during play very well. He's the sort of player that plays the man rather than plays the position. These are traits of a very strong player in the making.
😂
I like this view👌👍
Worst chess advice ever definitely should play the board rather than the man. The point is to find the best move in any given position.
@@justinwhitmore4550 i think he is correct. specific situations at his level. he was not giving advice for for general play or aspiring players.
A modern Lasker, with a heavy dose of nastiness added.
After they increased the security it's really a miracle that Hans survived
I just hope he gets invited to another super tournament, but if Magnus is also in attendance, I fear that won't happen...
I think Hans is a great player, but beyond that is his ability to read his opponent's emotions. Magnus just put a target on his back with Hans' name on it. If anyone could figure out how to beat him NOW, while he's clearly emotional, it would be Hans.
Magnus shouldn't be invited to any more round robins, given that his behavior this tournament was reprehensible.
Hope Hans takes Hikaru to the FIDE
Ethics Board for some Justice. 🙂👍
Nothing he can do
He's admitted to everything Hikaru said
@@paul8093 They couldn't understand that, don't bother telling them!
I don't think Hans cheated in this event, but he needs to accept the fact that he is ultimately responsible for what people think of him. The reason why people are suspicious of him is because of plenty of suspicious signs coupled with a known history of cheating. The reason why nobody speaks this way about Pragg or Abdusatarov is because they don't behave in a way which arouses suspicion, and if Hans doesn't want people to talk about suspicious things then it's up to him to not give them anything to talk about.
@@NotQuiteFirst very well said
Hans should stream on twitch.
I have no idea if he cheated or not but I can’t wait to look down upon all these comments acting like the answer is so obvious
God save Hans Niemann 👑
I hope Hans is truly proud of his last GM norm games, 5 wins 4 draws - and stockfish accuracy crushing Ostroskiy with black with insane king-side attack.. 4 centipawn loss! Let's strive for zero in the next version update
😂😂😂
Can you link the game? 4 centipawn loss is insane.
@@isamirahmad see Charlotte CCCSA Fall GM 2020 for the reference. Also it's recommended to use Stockfish 12 or 11 for analysis since these were the versions at that timestamp. Some games indeed were 0 CPL. I think that's the only sus moment in Hans career, not the 2022 Sinquefield Cup.
@@nick1752 wow Qh3 is beautiful . i couldnt understand it at first . nah i still cant understand it without the engine. what happens after gxf4? is there somehting like g5 f5 gxh4 Kh8-rg8+ ? im too lazy to calculate it.
Apparently this account is deleting any comments that speak badly (the truth) about Magnus.
If Magnus had ANY class he would apologize ask for forgiveness. Disgusting. You all know it, stop deleting comments let Magnus see the truth. Time to grow up.
😂
Of course, that's why every single comment supports hans.
@@beerus6779 Probably bc I called Magnus a coward 🤷🏼♂️
It's unlike anything I've heard of Magnus doing in his whole career, also his play is worse. He's always been cagey and ambitious, but within the bounds of the game, broadly speaking. This was a huge error in judgment from him. I think he's not the old Magnus anymore, he can do pretty well on muscle memory. I hope he'll let us remember Magnus thru August 2022, who was a great man and perhaps the greatest player of chess.
@@KevinWood44 there's nothing wrong in leaving the field when he chooses, as the new generation is arriving. He's been the most available and open WC in chess history.
FREEEE HANNNSSSS
Everyone giving props to Alejandro but, he was together with Peter and Yasser the one who kept insinuating Hans cheating, and now their whole attitude is backtracking .. nah bruh keep the same energy I'd say
I like this boy. Cool and fun
did he say it's not hard to force a draw against Ian and did he lose to him?
yes and no. He did not lose! 😅
too bad for you, hater. 🤣
@@MrBabadroga you're just showing disgusting behavior.
Best wishes to Hans for the future. And don't let the a**holes get you down!!!
Magnus will resign on second move next time he plays Hans, mark my words.
He'd best be making arrangements with his fan club.
