Lmao typical chess beat can’t handle a loss so accuse of cheating 😂😂

Seeing Hikaru not even wanting to play chess was just a strange feeling. Playing cheaters must hit different.

Imagine having the chance to play a FIDE 2800 player, something that would probably never happen, even if you played actual classical OTB tournaments, and you go and cheat with Stockfish instead.

It was hella depressing seeing how happy and vibing Naka starts the game and the transmission to see his good mood slowly going away and staring to ask himself if he really was that weak

Glad seeing Hans actively playing on a new account!

Other players: This guy is a cheater and that's why I lost Hikaru against stockfish: What am I doin, I'm not doin very well

damn that final position for the cheater in the 2nd game was absolutely brutal. Had the whole board locked down.

Neither Hikaru nor chat, despite chat for being notorious for noticing cheaters, fail to notice the three second moves that this guy does. A 2900 player and takes almost exactly 3 seconds to move is hilarious. The 60+ point gain is the cherry on top. 🤩

Even Hikaru's internet connection knew this guy was cheating, so it just went offline

Good to see Hans playing again

Damn this cheater disrespected hikaru by sacrifising his knight on f7 as early as on move 3

Yeah the only time I saw Hikaru truly depressed was when he tried to play a match against Stockfish. It must be a terrible feeling for a super GM to feel his position slipping away with every move, however precise.

Lets not forget the Hans drama revealed that many GM were caught cheating online.

At 5:00 when the knight took the pawn, that's when Hikaru knew he was facing a cheater and going to play against Stockfish at elo 3600+. Even without a knight, it's impossible to win. It's an extremely uncomfortable situation.

To the surprise of nobody, that account was closed for fairplay.

Hikaru when he faced 4000 elo Stockfish: What is this ? What is going on ?

Playing against a cheater is like being chained, the grip getting tighter and tighter every move, until you have no square to move the pieces to.

You've never seen the Stockfishian Gambit before? It's a well known opening amongst 3900s.

So this was how magnus felt playing vs Hans

So demoralizing being a brilliant chess player vs an engine, Bobby fisher was right the golden age is gone

This monsterreborn4 is so good at chess, he should have his own bot

4:58 Hikaru be like "Stockfish, is that you?" 😂😂

Hikaru felt disrespected at 5:00 😂

Crazy how he defended so well in that second game until Be5!

For those who are a bit newer to chess and dont understand how you can tell an opponent is a cheater. Well for one, you dont really outplay a Super GM with time advantage unless you youself are a Super GM. Hikaru is the No 5 highest rated player in world and tops the list in FIDEs rapid and blitz ratings. It is increadibly rare that the oppenent to be of such skill level and yet be unbeknownst in the chess world (real life or online).

Whats incredible here is that even after a knight sac, stockfish can easily crush a Super GM.

Very suspicious persistent move delay by his opponent. 99,9% cheater.

The disrespect in that second game

to funny when you turn into baby man, your classic i'll talk to people while im kicking butt went right out the window & turned into tears all over the board.. haha..

It's amazing that cheaters don't realize how absurd their play looks

I love when Hikaru fights cheaters, great emotions and content ! Usually it's too easy for him

This is a good example of the reason why cheating is so terrible for all forms of chess, and what we saw from Carlsen both in the Sinq cup against Niemann and in the Grand Swiss. If the worm starts to infest your brain that your opponent is cheating, it doesn't matter if he is or not - you can't possibly play at your full strength because part of your brain is doing circles around "is he cheating? I can't prove it. This move was weird. His timing is weird. This is all off" etc your mind is getting dragged away from its task of finding the best move and going through doubt, confusion, injustice, despair, suspicion, self criticism ("he's not cheating I'm just playing like garbage" is mixed up in there too) and it no longer matters if the opponent is cheating or not because you cannot play to your full strength while this is going on in your head. It's why stringent security measures in OTB tournaments are so important; if this thought spiral starts, your ability to play quality chess is in the toilet. You will never enter the zone. Organisers need to give the players the mental security that there is no way someone can cheat here, so that this thought loop doesn't consume them and they can just focus on playing good chess. Watching this happen to hikaru in real time is quite interesting (even if it sucks that this happened).

I enjoy seeing GMs crushed by engines. Nice game

Hans Neiman be like “stockfish speaks for itself” than he farts 🤣

Did you see Hikaru's face after 3.Nf7?!

4:55 this whole sequence is hilarious

The utter look of disgust on hikarus face on the beginning of the second game 😂

His face when he sees Knight to f7 sacrifice 😂

3-4 seconds each move all brilliant 🧐

5:00 disrespect lol

the 2nd game knight move is simple yet insane

Chess speaks for itself

in the past week alone i ve encountered at least 5 cheaters which started happening only like a month ago it's kinda unplayable cuz you not only lose to the cheater but you tilt and keep on losing and sometimes even your points take forever to be refunded

Hans smoked you bro🤣

The new and improved Hans Down Bot.

It’s crazy how good the engines are. Just watching Hikaru get dismantled is a sight to see

The worst part of this is that the only reason this cheater was caught this fast and not 4 years from now is because he played Hikaru. I got a 4 year old acc banned like more than once. People who cheat are absolutely pathetic.

Maybe his opponent was doing his own disrespect speedrun

"I prefer not to speak. If I speak, I am in big trouble."

There’s a lot more cheating than I think most people realize

Happy to see Hans Niemann playing chess again! Good try Hikaru dont let this loss stop you you'll bounce back 👍

Hikaru-What am I doing Me- Hacking stockfish😂😂😂😂😂😂

That cheater would destroy me in 1 move.😂😂😂😂😂😂

Thats the revenge hikaru can take by not making a move in a losing position .. Life sucks

I imagine this is what Magnus must've felt playing against Niemann

A thin line separates butthurt and losing to a cheater.

Enemy was Iranian backed up mysterious hamas supergrandmaster 😂

its awful how quickly this can ruin somebody's mood. there is nothing fun about cheating, i don't understand why people go out of their way to do it

My take: Sacking the knight on move 3 was clearly a human move. Having won game 1, the cheater was openly announcing to Hikaru that he was cheating. He knew he was going to be banned of course, but the point of the exercise was to cheat his way to the top, and by beating Hikaru he had achieved his goal. Most likely someone who knows the game but isn't especially good.

Hans testing his new beads.

4:57 damn lol

*It's too lucky for the engine* *to fought base Hikaru

What a poor guy ! How the hell did he reached 2900 without being caught earlier!

That Knight lmaoooooo wtf

This video felt like Hikaru didn't even wanna play.

The first game was simple and masterful from the bot; and the second game, I mean what is Nxf7 on move 3?! :D This super engines can basically play anything and still win. It reminds me of Jack Reacher's fight from the book, when he promised his opponents that he wouldn't use his arms in a fight, but somehow managed to beat up 5 or 6 men.

It's just funny how superior machines are compared to humans, he just played a couple moves and realized he's fucked, AI chess is beautiful to watch, because it's so brutally accurate and it makes these super gm's look so silly.

The ultimate flex: Hikaru monetizes the cheater, exposes him and gets him banned!

that cheater move every 3 second on clock exactly, easily spotted

Cheaters are stupid, it doesn't belong to chess!

How do you get a 3000 rating in 3 hours?

Monster Reborn is the iconic YGO card.

You know it’s bs when Hikaru calls you out

I don't really understand cheating in any fair game competition. At the end of the day that's not you who receives the credit for the win but the one who helped you to go that far. In this way, the player who loses starts with a huge handicap at the beginning of the game. Cheaters are very dilusional and are at the bottom of human beings.

Man I'm glad my profession is music, no cheaters there, it's either you suck or you don't suck, no "music engines" to carry you.

4:57 lmao

5:00 Someone, who has disrespected HiKaru 😄

I love supergms getting destroyed by cheater ....

the cheater is doing the disrespect speedrun

The disrespect on sacarificing that knight 😭

Hikaru, please don’t let that cheater get you down, you have been my favorite Chess player since Before I was a GM. You are truly a gift to chess, and your mind is amazing!!

Imagine cheating against the god hikaru

I get the subtle sense that he doesn't even want to play, you guys.

Ah, the 2 seconds per every move. Classic.

That knight really moved 2 times in the first two moves and still got the better positioning midgame. Jesus, why are you playing chess if you're gonna cheat...

How did he knew he was cheating

Mood killer really

Made me remember Jim Carrey saying good afternoon good evening and good night..

I don't particularly like Hikaru that much. But I watch a lot of your videos, because I believe it's a privilege to see one of the best in the world play. Having the opportunity to play with him would be even more incredible. Then, the guy has the chance to play with one of the best players in the world, but leaves the engine playing in his place... regrettable.

This is Hikaru at his house during a online Blitz game and he's this upset against a cheater. Imagine being Magnus during a classical game, face to face with a cheater. 2 minutes of pain vs multiple hours of pain. Cheaters in chess are vile

I don’t condone cheating but it does make for entertaining content. He couldn’t even find a move in that second game 😂

Should've stopped at the first game then Hikaru never would've known

I actually engine checked the position. Hikaru was winning but he had to force exchanges from the get go breaking open the center before white castled and getting an Endgame a piece up with a more active king than white. He was kind of slow so white equalized. The tables turned towards the end when he offered the bishop exchange which was a blunder and become from 0.0, +6,4 because of the initiative and some weird tactics and other stockfish reasons. Edit: of course it is blitz so it is almost impossible to play so goot that fast. However if it was 15+10 format or longer time wise i think that position was winnable for Hikaru even against stockfish.

Just to remind others hikaru beat both botez while blindfolded

Could've been a time traveller

The game was "interesting." Lmao

Imo, first game was a bit strange because opponent made his moves pretty fast vs top 5 players atm but okay maybe he's super GM rated guy and have studied specific line and knows it well, but in second game there was no doubt, that skill level was far beyond human. Sad to see Naka in a bad mode after that game 😢

How can a cheater be rated so high???

Where's Waldo? Sure he got a huge kick out of watching the look on Hikaru's face when the knight was sacked! :)

I don’t even play chess but why did he decide to sacrifice bishop instead of pawn?
