I've had so many recaps on youtube that I've had to push some videos that are timely to my second channel: youtube.com/@MoreGMHikaru Many people have been asking why I didn't play the Olympiad and while I've answered the question 100 times or more on stream, this video goes more in depth. https://youtu.be/A-VulwBoIPI -- I hope you enjoy it and thanks for all of your support!

Tomorrow I play Alireza and Magnus plays Hans. We'll have coverage on kick.com/gmhikaru starting at 10am Eastern, 4pm Central Europe, 19:30 India. Team Hikaru will have coverage on kick for the whole day, with cams.

Thanks for all your support!

I thought I'd share my upcoming schedule of events, since I've seen so many questions in comments. I'll be playing Nepomniachtchi in the QF of the SCC on Friday Aug 9 at noon Pacific, 3pm Eastern, 9pm CEST. I'll be flying to St Louis the next morning and playing in the St Louis Rapid and Blitz Aug 12-16th - it'll all be streamed on my kick channel. I also plan on doing recaps for Hans vs Anish, Levy's next event, and Clash of Claims 2, or whatever the new name is for that.

After August, my schedule for events is: Hopefully I'll be playing the SCC Semi-Finals in Paris in September, the Global Chess League in early October. I'm not playing the Olympiad but will stream it and cheer for USA USA USA!! 99.9% chance I'll play the World Rapid and Blitz in NYC after Christmas and I hope to play the next Freestyle GOAT 960 event in Germany in February.

I wanted to mention that we're uploading some titled tuesdays and things that would normally go on the main channel since the main channel is now a Road to GM for Gothamchess channel and we felt bad hanging onto this content for too much longer with no place to put it. Thanks for checking it out!

I won't always have chat on screen on recaps, just when I do recaps when I'm streaming. So for those of you who care, do you want chat on the screen, or no? I see a lot of comments and I wonder what the poll will say.

Would anyone be interested in a Membership Community where you might get analyzed games, chances to win signed boards, increased contact with me, monthly Q&A sessions, early access to videos, etc?
