Not taking anything away from Vidit. But, this is alot less of him winning then Hikaru basically giving it away. Like Hikaru refused to play the 2 most obvious moves. By obvious I mean natural moves. Literally a move that instantly pops in your head to make, that every single 1000 elo player in here would have played within 5-10seconds. Capture the bishop. BOTH TIMES. Which Hikaru spent in total almost 40mins on those 2 moves. Then both times made the wrong move, that anyone watching would had made in a heart beat. Which is just the top engine move. It's not like I would have made the move because I thought it was best. I would have done it with small calculation and realized I was up. Yet somehow Hikaru spending 40minutes didn't play it. Fucking nuts. This was Hikaru losing, not Vidit winning. Remind you, both times Vidit made those moves, it gave him a losing position, to the most natural moves possible. I wouldn't call that a monster strategy. Edit: excuse me 3 times Hikaru should have just captured the bishop and refused to do so. Like Hikaru played 2 blunders in this game. Which he never does. This has to be one of the worst performances I've seen from Hikaru. Like brother.....

🎉 issue with Hikaru is not his level of play, it is his mentality. From what he has said in interviews he seems to have written off the candidates as a bit of fun where he can create content and there is no way he can win such a high level tournament while thinking that way. He was very lucky to escape from the first round without losing, too.

@ditokelio7860 Ай бұрын

I love the more time rule, i always hate seeing people be in a intense endgame but know they will lose because of time and it just becomes a mess, especially on the board when you can accidentally do an illegal move. 40 moves is a great idea, too, instead of every move a little time. Ensures a constant intense game rather than a spam of non moves to make up time
