    Hikarus "Welcome back!" versus Gotham's deadly stare...
  • @deaccess
    Wow hikaru I'm convinced you literally read my mind by releasing this video, because after watching the match between you and fabi I got motivated to play the smith mora and I started analyzing the games and studying the smith morra. Thanks hikaru 😅
  • @sebu1301
    I'm glad to be living in this day and age, when one can get daily coaching from a 2800 rated super GM. Hikaru is the people's champ!
  • @jeremyrinker1339
    Brutally honest feedback on opening with e4 and gambits. I really appreciate it Hikaru!
  • @KidSmutty
    That "Welcome back everyone" makes my day every time!! LOL
  • @SRMi
    Thank you, this is my favorite of your guides so far.
  • @superrGMeli
    yeahhhh, just read Marc Esserman's book on this opening. A lot more fun to be had
  • @chlydabrigo
    I love the way it was explained ,simple and quick,. Easy to understand,.
  • Hikaru, I watched you play the Smith Morra against Fabiano and immediately started researching it! Thank you so much for making this video!
  • @olavisau
    I think it's all the way to 2000 or perhaps beyond with simply tactics / opening understanding. At my rating around 1700 - it's very rare for there not to be a game ending tactic in the first 20-30 moves, but damn can they sometimes be hard to spot and verify in seconds like you can.
  • @braum9547
    hikaru's energy on the opening is very addicting.
  • man i love the smith morra gambit, first opening i learned. now they all gonna learn it and how to defend it, i think i have to find something different thats not often played ^^
  • @Isaisc64
    ¡Gracias por la lección Gran Maestro!
  • @ehatipo4598
    This is probably the best instructive chess video on YouTube under 20 mins! All hail the king Hikaru!!
  • @HughesMath1
    Listened to the first game over 10 times today. Still working still grinding still learning the board.
  • @kyuchess
    It's great to see you giving credibility again to this amazing opening!
  • @PaulGoldstein
    i play smith morra all the time, because of all the opportunities it opens. Esserman has a nice book on it. So nice to see it played at top levels.
  • Perfect, I was just studying the Sicilian and needed some example games
