Hey
Levvvvyyyyy!
I fart on a regular basis
Pin of shame???
pls stop taking betterhelps money, they are really bad if you research them.
My girlfriend called Levy a modern, nerdy Harry Potter.
I guess she's not your girlfriend anymore then
Harry Potter isn't nerdy?
@@pavementpounder7502 Not particularly. That's Hermione's game
He’s more of a jock given the circumstances imo
Spot on
French Alireza: *plays French defense
Russian Nepo: *plays Russian opening
Missed Caruana playing the Italian
hikaru playing the american cheeseburger opening
Fabiano: *plays Italian opening
Gukesh: *plays Indian defence
Hikaru plays the Kamikaze attack
😂😂😂😂
Hikaru this candidates: loses, gets called bad, beats everyone in a row
basically Lei
tbh Hikaru's form is worse than previous candidates but ofcourse he is still easily top 4 player in the field currently so he getting through playing off other's mistakes
8:00 In Hikaru's recap, he actually talks about how he calculated Qd7 and was very concerned about it.
I'm happy whoever of the first placers will win.
1. Ian could get his revenge and his well deserve World Championship Title
2. Hikaru, just a favorite no explanation
3. Gukesh, a 17 year old in a WCC? Historical!
I agree with everything you said
I never like comments but this was too based to ignore
Logical gg why not
Agree, but i would slightly prefer 1 or 2 because gukesh is so young and will likely become wc at some point anyway.
The thing with Hikaru is simply that he is a personality, and a truly interesting player. I think that chess could be such a fantastically interesting thing if more players had a channel/platform which they could stand on.
Hans, Hikaru, Magnus, Levi, etc.
Not that chess alone isn't already fantastic, of course...
7:37 For anyone interested, Hikaru saw this and calculated that it was fine
Yea he was planning his attack strategically
wow... i think hikaru is very good at predicting silent moves like qd7
Did you talk to him?
@@Bob-jy4juhikaru makes videos talking about his game right after..
@@legendary3550fair enough, sorry for my rude comment
10:25 "It's probably just a draw"
_eval bar shoots up_
instantly reverses the move sequence
😂
Good reminder of how double edged and difficult most of these positions are.
If a GM didnt see it ill forgive levy haha
we all know Levy doesnt know how to play chess without a computer
@FlagerMiszcz where tf is your IM Title then?
Please stop accepting BetterHelp sponsorships. They've been involved in multiple major controversies where they've lied about having trained professionals, when in fact they didn't. Many many bad stories from that company
Fr. Real, serious therapy wouldn't have to aggressively sponsor CZcamsrs for marketing.
Raid, hexclad, menscape etc. i wouldn't even try. Any product requiring that much aggressive sponsoring is probably shit
they also sell their clients data which is especially sensitive in the therapy context
Thank you
No disrespect to Levy but yeah this is sad to see
the company is dangerous
He has to pay bills… so..
Shoutout to levy for promoting small players like Hikaru!
Fr
ya man hikaru needs help cuz he keeps on losing to 500 elo me it would be good if he get help from levy
not funny

What a guy
About the betterhelp sponsorship:
I'm not trying to get on your ass, Levy, but a competitive pokémon youtuber that I follow called Freezai recently got into some hot waters for taking a betterhelp sponsorship. I didn't even know about this drama until I saw a comunity post with an apology on his channel. I fully believe you were not aware of this when taking this sponsor and that you also have some contractual obligations you have to abide by. I wish you well no matter what stance you take on this. Cheers!
Love freezai
what’s wrong with betterhelp? i use the service i thought it was nice
Keep these things to yourself
It's because BetterHelp scams people by claiming to have licenced therapists when they don't. It is also significantly more expensive than normal therapy. It's a complete scam, just like Established Titles
@@thedownloadz dont tell creators not to support scams?
Gukesh, Hikaru, Ian and Fabi all are in top spot now. Support for all of them!
They all deserve to win for different reasons.... may the best player win!
What a treat for chess fans!!
Fabi is not in top spot
Guy above me is correct. Gukesh, Hikaru, and Ian are tied for first place at 7.5/11. Fabiano is behind them at 7/11. This might not seem like much but it means Fabiano MUST win his games. If he draws, he cannot win the tournament because he is already behind.
@@07Lightless the winner will probably have 9 points, so Fabi definitely needs to win both of his games get 1st place.
@@07LightlessYou are right because no matter what One of the three will get 8.5 anyhow. While Fabi is mathematically still there, he is likely not going to win. Other players are not going to clear the way for him. Right now, IMO Gukesh has the highest chances among the three, since he is against Ali who is not focused these days, especially the day after he defeated Gukesh. If Gukesh can convert that into a win he will likely win the tournament. Since Nepo is against Fabi and Hikaru while Hikaru is against Nepo and Gukesh.
@@HarshRaj-px9se i am rooting for Gukesh. He has really surprised me this tournament. I did not expect to see such strong performances from him. Levy was right about this last game, he literally felt like Magnus Carlsen exploiting a significantly weaker player and winning with ease.
Thats Hikaru Man
Epic Comeback
Hikiri guy should consider playing chess professionally
@TaylorSwiftie-jz7zl ok beg more
no thats unc scrooge on the
@TaylorSwiftie-jz7zlgive me ur video begging while kneeling. I’ll consider a sub
You mean winning twice in one game? I couldn't believe it when he missed the rook/knight combo and lost almost all his advantage. But then he buckled down and built it all up again, almost from scratch. He's an astonishing dude.
The candidates are just taking turns on Nijat Abasov at this point. Why won't the arbiter get this man a cup of hot chocolate and a warm blanket?
I mean, it’s depressing but I expected it. Wish the best for Abasov
I predicted before the tournament that the candidates winner will win both of their games against Abasov. I just sort of assumed that multiple people would accomplish that.
Crazy to think that ian drew both games and is still joined first place.
You’re an idiot. Your opinion is demonstrably false for any round robin tournament (hence the design), and seems to just pick on one player out of some need to assert understanding of chess or insight?
Meh, he qualified. Carlsen chose not to take the spot. It's good practice for him and some nice money. Kind of like with Alekseenko who isn't a terrible player, just happened to benefit from the Grand Swiss.
27:46 I think Pragg is mathematically eliminated no? He has 6 points and can reach a maximum of 8 points, while Gukesh, Hikaru and Nepo have 7.5 points. Hikaru will play against both Gukesh and Nepo, and a decisive game between Hikaru and Gukesh/Nepo means one of those 3 players would reach 8.5 points. The other alternative is Hikaru drawing both games, and in that scenerio Hikaru would reach 8.5 points anyway. Hikaru playing against both of the other co-leaders means Pragg is mathematically eliminated.
Hikeru's next 3 match with...!!??
Yep he is. I didn't think about it until u pointed out but one of Hikaru Nepo and Gukesh is guaranteed to get 8.5 .
Yes that's the correct. Levy can't do basic math. I expected more from an IM. LOL
fabi gonna win
Unless they all quit, yeah, Pragg is toast. Gukesh is the Indians ace in the hole. He’s tied for first with Hikaru and Nepo
Gukesh performs so well in the big events! The Olympiad back in 2022 and now here at the candidates. Hope he wins it❤
Everyone has some control over their fate now... Hikaru gonna be playing both Nepo and Gukesh
I really like the coincidence that they leaders play each other at the end
Great recap as always
Hey pretty lady!
Gukesh has the best chance, he gets to play Alireza with white.
Nijat hadn't lost with white pieces in this tournament until he faced Gukesh

2:30 alright you listen here, attacking my water choices was HIGHLY uncalled for levy.

Levy blundered with the sponsor choice
Why
@@digitalsparrow_8599 better help controversy
@@digitalsparrow_8599 do some research, you’ll be very surprised, but overall betterhelp is extremely scummy
Absolutely, this comment needs more attention.
If it is a service that is supposed to help you mentally, that is supposed to be effective, why would you need a monthly subscription @@digitalsparrow_8599
These videos have gotten me more hyped for a chess tournament than I've ever been. This candidates has been wild.
Respectfully, what the absolute fuck was Alireza thinking with that pawn to G5 move?! I’m in the 900-1000 range online and my jaw dropped IMMEDIATELY. I assumed there was something complex I was missing. Just absolutely shocking blunder.
My only guess is that Alireza knows it’s over, like his tournament run, he needs a win, draw or loss doesn’t do anything so I think he went G5 as a hail merry plan just in case Hikaru chokes the game away.
Basically Vidit is Hikaru's demon while Alireza his guardian angel. He blundered both his games against Hikaru.
my elo is 200 and it was so obvious. Alireza is so bad. I should be playing there.
@@FlagerMiszczNah ☠️

@@kanjarize damn dude... Mocking someone's religion simply because he supported a player from the same religion... Amazing... You could have instead commented on the nationality, but no... You chose to comment on religion instead because somehow you believe that all non abrahamic religions are inferior to you... Kudos...
I am guessing you are Indian yourself... Inside the country, you mock us and then play your minority card to get away with any bs... And outside, you are more numerous so there also you mock, because let's get real... Who could counter you there...
Thank you so much for making these recaps Levy. I sadly am too busy to watch the games live and watching your videos makes me feel really happy I still basically get to watch the Candidates ❤
Im so hyped for this tournament and your videos make it so much better! Thank you levy
Levy you reached another level in this tournament, great joy starting the day with these recaps. Thank you.
This tournament has been so crazy, I was checking up the tiebreakers for this event after this round because they might seriously be needed. Such a great tournament.
isn't tie breaks, direct confrotation? the top 3 all drew the games with each other
@@MaxIronsThird there is no mathematical tie breaker, all first placed players will play a rapid round robin (if more than two). SB tiebreaker will only apply to all other placings
I love these videos. Thank you Levy!🌹
and he sacrifices his REPUTATION by accepting the betterhelp sponsor
I have no idea how you turn these around so quickly and with the level of quality. Kudos from Canada and hope you're enjoying Toronto
When the Frenchman plays the French’s Defense….it’s an automatic resignation. 😂😂😂😂
Historically accurate
Dang, Hikaru Vs Nepo, Fabi Vs Gukesh. This is going to be insane. I won't lie, it would be nice to see a new face at the WCC match. Rooting for Hikaru and Gukesh
First time watching your recap.. loved how you tell a story with every game you recap, even when I knew the results the way you build it up and create a story is brilliant.
LEVY! Isn't betterhelp a bad company?
3 minutes in and Levy has called me out lol. I love bread by itself and room temp water. Guess the old saying is true. If you don't know the strange friend in your group, you are.
And he sacrificed THE ROOOOOOOOOOK!!!!!!!!!!!
It's captivating how these world-class players maneuver every small advantage into a full-blown victory. The anticipation for the final rounds is at its peak, with the results hanging by a thread.
I met Eric and Danny and my local chess club tonight. Thank you for all the recaps levy! Been enjoy Levi bot.
LETS GOOOOOO HIKARU TAKING THE LEAD!!!!
srsly u spoiled it😭
Thx for spoiling lol even though it's the first game😂
thank you for the damn spoiler
The best
@@Jasmineelaine why on earth would you look at comments of a video if you wanted to find out for yourself...
I have been watching ur videos since 3 years now, like dude how is it even possible. How do u stay so updated and upload right after a few hours. Good job man, love ur vidoes
Meanwhile, one particular person is playing five hour games and uploading within an hour of playing in the Candidates
@@Shadowboost I comment on hikaru’s vids the same thing. Hikaru is a beast
Another great recap! Watching these brilliant minds play is so instructive. They're capable of so much. Thanks for guiding us through them!
The final two rounds are going to be a blast for sure. Weekends really shaping up with exciting chees candidates and the f1 chinese grand prix with ferrari bringing in their new upgrades. Looking forward to both of them!!
Watched the moves live, and now I’m here to watch them again with yelling and mma references, because it’s better that way.
"it's like a person who just likes to eat bread"
Me: puts down the half eaten piece of bread I'm holding
beautiful story-telling with that last game. this candidates will go down as among the best
ty Levy for this incredible recaps! i saw moments on the games but you put more pressure on it! its like a movie!
HikaruLevymora is really doing this!!!!!
I can't believe Levy is promoting a scam .... Do your research before accepting any sponsor Levy
many people have commented about it, he probably knows and doesn’t care
Honestly it's very disappointing 😔
Hey good explanation bro! After a long time I clicked on levy's video and realized this was the fun I was missing - liked the fast pace of the moves.
Now that's a perfect script for climax of candidates! All the top performers playing each other!!
Hikaru playing the loss gambit declined
"This one hits different"
-My brain
Hikaru suddenly decided to start winning
That was very entertaining! Thank you 🙏 so much!!
What an exciting set of tournaments! I'm enjoying these recaps thoroughly. Really glad you're showing all the games and not skipping relatively uneventful draws (though there hasn't been that many of those really). So glad both the open and women's is being held at the same time. And both are putting on a great show! Is it possible that both could end in ties for first? How would they decide? Is there a fast format playoff procedure, or is it determined by some formula or who beat who earlier, etc?
Is it just me or does levy look like a mad scienchess.
E, or e, is the fifth letter and the second vowel letter of the Latin alphabet, used in the modern English alphabet, the alphabets of other western European languages and others worldwide. Its name in English is e (pronounced /ˈiː/); plural es, Es or E's.[1]
It is the most commonly used letter in many languages, including Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, French, German, Hungarian, Latin, Latvian, Norwegian, Spanish, and Swedish
This is a great comment, but I'm fairly curious to what this is in response to
@@sabiebright4554 I'm not sure either, but I felt like commenting it.
Why😂
Levy, we so appreciate the recap videos and the quickness with which you upload them.
same but I think he'd be able to deep dive more into the games and analyze them properly if he wouldn't cast all men and women's games at the same time
Yeah I don't really understand why he even covers the women's side at all..@@Mick_Huber
@@scriptself6092 the womens side matters too buddy
Man this is absolutely must watch. Love these recaps.
What a tournament this has been. Can't wait for the final 2 rounds
Hikaru just broke TWO records:
- Since 2013, Hikaru Nakamura becomes the first player to have five decisive results in a row at the FIDE Candidates!
- Since 2013, Hikaru Nakamura becomes the 3rd player to win three games in a row at the FIDE Candidates!
What record is broken if both those sentences start with since 2013, and to make things worse, second recors states he's the 3rd person to do so..
This might be the dumbest thing I read all day.
@@robbertnugteren2801he missed a record:
Hikaru became the 3rd person with a score of 7.5 in the 2024 candidates.
This is the worst comment I’ve ever read on CZcams.
@@robbertnugteren2801 2013 was the start of the Candidates as we know it today, aka a double round robin, before that, it was an elimination format, like the world cup.
Hikaru might actually win now. This is probably his wildest tournament lol
it's wide open at the top, could be any of those 3
Those two losses to Vidit really making the difference now
He’d be the weakest champion in history
It's like how every game he puts everyone through a rollercoaster leaves it until the last minute to win - but doing that for the touranment itself.
@@donsurlylyte oddly enough, i think fabi wins this
My vote is on longer recap videos for the future. Wouldn’t mind 40-45 minute videos
Levys never failed to say “slowly, methodically”
For anyone wondering, the original title was "WINNING THE CANDIDATES!"
The candidates videos get pretty good views, he doesn't really have a reason to change the titles
Stop begging for likes Bozo
Chess is a brutal game, one could lose a completely winning game because of a single move and what makes its impossibly difficult here is the format of Candidates. These players have been constantly playing chess matches for 6 hours straight every day and are still sitting at their peak somehow! While these players are doing amazing handling the pressure I believe it’s high time to bring some changes to the tournament
You are doing an outstanding job of broadcasting and analyzing this chess event. Thank you so much. You make chess feel something great!
I haven’t watched a gotham video in a couple months after taking a break from chess being an 1800. These vids are the best and he uploads every day
