not really, that was a rook ending which ofc grandmasters understand deeply especially the position at the end and you can clearly see Hikaru did make some mistakes here and have to look at the eval bar for hints

Actually Levy's choices gave white a few fits. Levy getting the initiative and keeping it as black was nice to see. And even though Hikaru would have played more accurately were he playing white in that rook and pawn game, that 'star' move by black was notable too. I usually watch Hikaru for his streaming and his own self recaps, but it was nice to watch this one.
