Hikaru, Agadmator, & GothamChess Can’t Handle All My Queens | 4 PLAYER CHESS

excitedly awaiting the joining of antonio i wonder antonio's gonna be like hey guys i'm like hey man i've had eric on for wait he never says hey guys though he always says hello everyone i don't think he's gonna say that no i don't think he's gonna i think that's just a youtube thing you know i thought that was his whole like brand like he says it no matter what does he say it like to a one person too maybe i don't know you calling me he doesn't say hello eric he'll say hello everyone and you're just like dude it's just me and he's like i know but i i have to okay so you guys call him antonio or is it more polite to call him a god notor we call him antonio and tony oh okay not antonio the same way as wait what what so there's antonio but there's also antonio like eric we're we're three americans we say antonio wait i've never heard anybody call somebody antonio what i thought was the same way like kasparov versus kasparov no this is gonna be a fun show i'm excited i'm really confused i've never heard anybody ever say antonio it's always antonio i think eric has just traveled a lot um and what language is it on tony i just thought like when you go to europe the a's are pronounced as ah rather than i think he's i think like actually he's correct in italy it's still it's still antonio really oh at least again i've never been to italy so i'm learning something new but okay that's fine it's just like as we all say it's san antonio in in texas chad i actually speak italian so i i am familiar with it but i i know it's it's antonio it's not on it's ann antonio wait but how how do you say a god mature do you say a good mater i think we say a gad mature yeah it's agate mater is how qiu pronounces it ah which is i don't i don't even know anymore which is probably not correct but i don't know okay probably not but apparently they're saying that's not how you pronounce it at croatian so ah and croatia ah croatian maybe it's ah ah and croatian is antonio okay croatian okay that makes sense so again guys it's uh eric rosen and myself versus the two grand masters antonio and hicaro so sweet did we clear this up also on antonio i don't think we've formally met so nice to meet you oh likewise eric likewise but i feel like like we've known each other for ages so i actually saw you in real life from a distance [Laughter] yeah it was uh the world championship match and it was super crowded and there were a lot of people in this like small space and you were like all the way at the end of the hall and then i was going to say hi but then you you disappeared into the vip lounge i wasn't a vip so that's kind of sad uh that you weren't a vip or that we didn't meet uh both okay not not to interrupt this incredibly uh adorable uh moment but um guys just a friendly reminder that the admins of just four player chess will be doing the matches for us but the top left only accept an invite from somebody named gdii if it's not that person most likely your computer will be hacked and all your money will be taken from you oh yeah they already invited me i declined sorry i declined it too so folks please do not harass us when we have a pre-planned programming do not we are not going to play you we will have games beginning for the four of us um so anyway please continue uh eric what happened after antonio went to the vip lounge i never saw him again i guess i'm still not out so terrifying experience my god i would invite eric to any vip lounge that i had eric have you been in any of the have you since you've traveled a lot too have you been in any of the uh like really cool uh like airline at like the airport in the airline lounges yeah so i mean i traveled through singapore a lot and whenever i'm in asia i make an effort just to stop in the the giant marina bay sands top floor infinity pool yeah well i i haven't been to the infinity pool i've i've been to multiple airline lounges in in the changi airport good man and i always make an effort to make the layover as long as possible and usually if i there's usually like a two or three hour limit but if i overstay it usually they don't kick me out so it's nice oh by the way so the other big question of ours how do we pronounce your first name ah oh it's actually antonio oh it is okay okay that's right yeah antonio antonio what about your uh your youtube channel name oh that's uh agad mator ah okay i don't think uh any of you got that one right for several years like i referred to you as agonator oh no but that's that's gross no no i i'm learning though so i always said i gotta call you do we call you by your your real name or your youtube channel name oh i i think the real name will do antonio okay yeah but but if you if you want you can call me like captain hook he doesn't really [Laughter] i mean is that because you look like him or just like we're calling you any name uh i don't know if it if it pleases eric i guess you know it's it's sort of being sorry for not meeting him in london i'm still disappointed but it's okay oh game time i feel like not playing four player chess is more relaxing than playing four-player chess all right so it's uh what is it bullet no it's 115. oh okay okay oh it's a straight bullet no no it's 1 15. are we playing teams are we free-for-all this is free-for-all we're starting oh right so i'm the best player so i need to start my dominance so we need to change against hikaru of course no against levi is actually the best player here he's put more time into the game than i ever have in free for all i think i think you're you're stronger oh love you stop trying to pretend look at that you know okay wait do i queen uh when i hit eighth rank yeah yeah it's where you see that weird like that weird thing that looks like it doesn't belong like your screen is dirty but it isn't uh but i don't know dude that's not a good move but in are we still playing teams or free-for-all free-for-all okay it says so okay i was hoping you weren't gonna do that because now we're nerfing each other levy but this is free for all yeah but you're supposed to keep all your pieces not damaging me okay it's fine they need some they need some mods anyway so but this isn't teams levy why do you keep talking about it's like it's odds i okay you don't you you okay i mean i mean okay i mean whatever you know okay yeah because you damaged your own dark squares when you did that but whatever okay okay love you then don't offer the exchange in the first place push your pawn up to to like to g3 can we just acknowledge the fact that eric rosen said he doesn't know anything about four players just he's 1989. true i'm still trying to crop you guys okay also i have no idea what i'm doing levy was teaching me the other day and then you know what okay right i'm gonna do something i'm gonna do something nice for the audience i'm gonna play from hikaru's perspective oh wait no i can't even do that because the camera's wrong it's okay it's all good but see and antonio's just getting a queen here no can't do that it's okay if he gets a queen he's gonna lose both okay i love you i like your confidence oh listen i had to get in on the trash talking see you in the vip lounge [Laughter] okay uh i'm going for another queen i guess seems like a reasonable plan i feel like we're all getting crushed by antonio right i think we all have so much material yeah well not not yet if he gets another queen then we're in trouble yeah i'm gonna try and get all of them well evie why are you trying to be annoying i'm just blocking you out man i'm just you know yeah but he's you're preventing me from ever being able to attack antonio and get a get a queen but you're not even supposed to attack your opposite sorry what like you're opposite blue and green and you're supposed to like beat not attacking but he's just making another queen nah no he don't make he's not gonna win okay levy i think it's unstoppable yeah it's actually kind of hard to stop because of where our pawns are like eric's the only one who can cite it i can do something it's up to eric oh that's a nice one that's a nice one eric nice one i might even give up the queen to grab your knight that's exactly what i'm gonna do what oh oh because you're worth one point oh oh oh oh but oh but lovey is a nice move as do i oh there you go yeah i i i think i'm gonna i'm gonna play this so because i want to be can you annoying you draw arrows even like in two-player mode yeah just nobody else sees it i think mm-hmm picks up your audience uh okay okay so both of you guys are coming after my queen okay now i'm just confused do i take the queen i guess i do yeah because now if i recapture he grabs me either of you want to recapture right um i guess that's that's how how we're going to do it four player chests is a type of chest played by four players all right let's just move this away you i mean you saw that i was attacking but now he gets a queen you could have stopped him by putting the queen on like on on j time j9 i'm sorry well i was assuming eric would stop him from making a queen how can eric stop him i just want to save no i thought bishop checkered something yeah but it still doesn't stop oh i see okay yeah there we go somehow this turned into something that's not fantastic all right so third queen oh yeah okay but two one already is gone so we'll just have to do the same thing to this queen okay i i'm really scared of where my queen is though i'm not gonna lie i don't understand why you put it there no he should put it up one story should put it he should have put it to j9 just one square back and then he would have been able to take the pawn you lower rated guys even though i'm the second lowest rated don't understand what's going on here you just you don't understand okay that's a nice check thank you uh let's do this again what oh oh because it's five for one that's actually a good move that's good oh yeah you're very clever guy how many points is it for a win it's like 25 or something i guess what do you mean like checkmate win or just winning the game no no just if you like move back and forth and grab a couple of pieces oh no but but it's uh bishops are worth five i think rooks are worth five and then queens are worth nine unless it's a promoted queen in which case it's worth one uh yeah it all depends free-for-all can either be a nine or a one-point game so okay that's that's a nice pawn move thank you uh all right so i will i will grab this definitely no all right no loudly exclaimed eric at least some points for me but that that was your like your your newly reborn queen yeah hikaru and i are just casually trading bishops farming points for each other okay uh we can do something like uh something are you gonna make another queen now uh he's a really nasty move here he is a really he's a really nice yeah see if you were if you were if you were a toxic participant of the show you yeah i completely forgot about that i'm in check so if you had attacked my queen with anything you would have won my queen well maybe not because hikara would have defended or one of them would have defended so it's not so easy yeah yeah why would i be your queen lovey this is free-for-all no because you know antonio's going to take and then you'll take oh yeah yeah yeah you take five points so it's not true that's true that's true so is there a mode that is where you only play for checkmate where you don't grab points no it's part of the game it's like uh it's like quidditch you know you can score in the right i play a lot of footage so and and have fun yeah so uh what does your shirt say antonio oh it's uh my sister got me this it says the best sister in the world uh i have the best sister in the world okay i thought it's the shirt was calling you the best sister no i don't know [Laughter] she said i had to wear it on the stream oh nice alright wait i thought it was a bad strategy to castle i mean i don't really i don't really have a choice because levy's just trying to attack me oh that pawn is really going places i'm trying i'm learning from your strategies i'm gonna try and improve and not lose the queen once i get it okay ah that makes sense yeah some nice four player chest prophylaxis okay let's um let's just tap the and have some fun okay oh wait a second can i no you can't do anything levy but nice try well you were thinking like queen capture spawn in front of king yeah no that no but i i think if i take his pawn over there by his rook it's like okay but i just went up on it might be too dangerous okay you're going to lose levy don't you want to finish in the top two i'm going to okay [Music] because levy you get crippled then you you yourself you have no chance if you me then there's no way you're gonna have a chance well if i played queen takes all the way pawn near your rook right and i move my king and then you just trade the queens though no no i was just gonna go back i was gonna run backwards oh you were just gonna take the one pawn really yeah yeah i'm i mean okay that's weird well i didn't do it that's really weird man for one pawn that's really weird but i didn't even do it i used four player chests one point and this position wouldn't matter like at all listen you're not uh well i bro can we just acknowledge the fact that i did not play it sure sure okay sure thank you um i'm gonna do it now just uh okay let's go what is what isn't what does antonio want oh he just didn't want to lose a pawn okay let's go here yeah it's uh i like that one oh okay trying to activate some pieces i feel trend well you you checked me that wasn't very nice so i i feel like i need to attack you now i just celebrated by stealing lacroix on the floor um i think it's not near my computer or else two streams go down at the same time you have to borrow those bounty paper towels from hikaru i literally i literally have that no joke yeah that's good awesome too just in case not a sponsored stream uh doing levy ah you're trying to bring your rook in that's what you're trying to do no well antonio also had a fork like seven moves in a row with his knife that's right yeah but early lose the game here well not no knights knight for rook is a really good trade bishop for rook is so so yeah but not with four players still in the game you want to keep everything as long as possible true that's what they taught me in four player chess academy wait then why why did you sack your queens for my minor pieces because it was a second queen so it's good yeah cause it's only worth one yeah it's probably it is the right choice um yeah this guy is doing nothing here um who do i attack everyone's like very salido i'm just placing my knight there i'm not gonna capture your queen oh oh okay i mean if you say so no no it's totally fine okay then that allows me the luxury to come up with a plan somewhere no i don't believe you wait because we're across from each other we should work together right i already i i don't i don't understand so i'm just gonna go here okay um everything's attacking my knight oh that's right actually oh yeah i didn't even see that yeah a lot of action on that night just make a pawn chain oh blocking my bishop very nice very nice [Music] so this is always good oh thank thank antonio's been missing so many chances to just absolutely embarrass me like where knight takes pawn check and hikaru wins my queen but i mean if it it's only i mean that that just takes me out of the game but it yeah it only that doesn't help me really because you don't you you hikaru is still around is what you're saying yeah this way i i just keep keep low and uh good stuff i like what eric is doing though he's very quiet he's just very quiet and like being defensive i'm just trying to lay low and not get smashed and very secretive i mean everyone's attacking me from like all these different directions that's true yeah i don't know what i'm doing so let me try to up a little hmm i just thought it was a nice weird square to place the bishop it's a nice diagonal every every everyone yeah is good oh that's weird that's fast um what what now moves moves moves moves that is an interesting move wow yeah could be oh really no because i think i was in some trouble if i didn't do that but i i have no understanding of this game so am i accepting uh am i accepting song requests now like like right now on a no song stream yeah you can request you won't get it but you can request it that was a a very nice attempt okay sort of trading queens but also going for checkmate no no no what trying to check mate unbelievable eric just casually i'm just gonna go for my my connect four pawn chain why is antonio not taking my pieces well i'm hoping to keep it cramped so hikaru can checkmate you or something okay all right um because yeah okay it's interesting yo this guy is like a tactician god okay nice check [Music] all right and now we push i think is there a move here no there isn't you are a little lucky why uh uh well why am i lucky i don't understand well i can't say anything you have to figure out why you're lucky i feel like levy understands this game much deeper than all of us no i mean i just i sometimes you see tactics that's that's literally it you go after my bishop that's that's gonna dm you that's cool i dm'd you on discord ah okay wait so i'm lucky no wait why am i lucky because cause if because if that happened that would have been that would have been like it would have been he would have stole is what i'm saying i'm but i'm not checkmating you anyway [Music] where do i move got him actually maybe you should flag oh hikara wants to maybe wait is there an hassan in this game yep if i so if i move two he can take me someone in my chat just said wait hi caro has discord yes i have discord disconnect from reality i suppose but um very very hard to follow all the diagonals uh-huh and the files this i feel like this is a very high level game oh yeah like super high level superhero definitely no idea what's happening there wait so if i move my rook pawn up too he can or not i don't know actually can i or not just just to see don't do it i think i can yeah i think i can it doesn't it lets me make the preview because that's a sideways on passang that's not like a real but the pawns on a5 it's like a5 captures v6 i think okay you guys should just attack akaro so he can't on pass on me but eric you're you're trying to win you've got a ton of pieces thank you for that lovey thank you i'm just literally [Music] nice yeah that's a that's a that's a good move but yeah the guys to the to the left of you has the position so if they attack you then okay so whatever happening here so many pawns for eric you will be unstoppable that's a nice trick a very nice trick okay and eric's margin is falling down the center of the board i think like eric's got the best strategy i feel like he's gonna win he just has yeah because you decided to attack me lovey you hey who took you you don't exactly eric doesn't have any chance but now like now we're both dead no wait well antonio's doing us all a favor definitely has the same as king uh yeah for now but uh hikaru has a second queen you're getting a second queen um that was a good move not not the greatest okay so you got it pretty good pretty good there's six queens on the board uh too many too many yeah six on the board okay okay very safe square for the king it's honestly i don't think it's a safe square i'm not feeling that safe no it's definitely not safe okay i think it's good though because if i'm only near antonio then he goes and then i go next so i feel like but no it's it's definitely not safe but i have a i have a very interesting move that could be good but it's not what is that i just really wanted to put my queen in the center okay very aesthetic what is the idea here you don't get it i also don't get it no one gets it i have two seconds so um all right that's not happening from finland love from new york to finland what oh i thought i thought you wanted me to capture hikaru's roof okay sorry lovey lovey you're such a bad person like you you conned him that central queen really paid off i i don't think i conned anyone i think he just moved his bishop there yeah but they did it to help you to get rid of hikaru's rook right or something like that oh or something like that ah dude i don't i just saw a free piece so i decided to yeah with two seconds it does make sense oh that was nice thank you you guys are you guys are feeding me free stuff i like it that was actually very nice well you know you can do that like if you if you're in in between two players you can play a move and then like uh there's a don't do it don't do it it's actually probably a very bad move [Music] if it was the other one i'd i'd probably do it but not this one the fake one oh levy you're trying to set up a checkmate i am yeah yeah if uh oh nice so yeah that's not gonna work what's in that water in croatia what checkmate am i trying to set up and on who uh well my knight guards the bishop and uh eric has a mate set up on my bishop and if you capture the knight that's uh that would be it wouldn't it that's actually a really nice plan yeah what how did you even well then i would be wait you're gonna flag oh oh oh yeah i was i was worrying about that for too long no dude you just straight up told me a plan that i didn't even see i mean my goodness i'm just capturing free pieces and now i'm almost flagged yeah like levy somehow you're like somehow winning now no i'm no way i'm i'm lost there's no way i can no but it doesn't make any sense i don't have any pieces like yeah but you have a very active queen that's yeah you do have an active queen i feel like you guys could have punished that though like hikaru's got a freaking artillery of stuff not exactly let me stop stop acting like i do i don't have that many pieces either sort of oh two queens is not enough how am i getting a third queen when eric is about to make a queen also i i don't know queens and then enjoy life yeah now everyone is getting a queen that's sad it's like they're what like nine queens on the board almost it's not for you but it's happy for us it's actually insane this is actually insane whatever what is that what are you doing what are you doing what is that i'm blocking your queens obviously that's not a queen lovey it's two squares you need better glasses do you not see that little speck on your on your uh chess board uh the queening square is two uh two up not one no i'm i'm i'm blocking your blue queen which is a queen that is oh oh oh that's what you meant oh i thought you know that i'm like promoting okay no no i'm just trying to get your blue queens away from me okay that's what i'm doing hmm that's not actually what you're doing oh my god oh what i can't help myself oh my what do i what is no one controlling that i don't even want to trade a pawn for one of his queens oh i'm i'm in trouble levy why are you doing this i couldn't trade queens man i couldn't trade queens this is so crazy this is eric's first ever game on stream and he has four queens oh oh oh that's a four oh a kind that was that was not good because now i think eric can just mate me how many points is uh uh like a royal fork can i recommend me i don't think i want to meet you though mate america made him 20 it's 20 points for the mate but remember if you check me and antonio checks me and mates me he gets the 20 points so just just do it eric i don't want to do it just do it what what is that pot twist uh my pawn is not moving what it's not carried by my knife eric that was not a good move on your part dude oh you really messed that up dude yeah because i made it now because you you i told you not to give a check yeah but you should you should not have let him lose why he was a threat he's a highest rated i don't yeah but i don't know the most points is what i mean like yeah oh and that's also mate so now what it's me versus eric's queens exactly oh well i mean yeah i mean oh eric still wins he still is going to win probably but yeah with a million million queens there's so many queens eric this is gonna just get worse we don't have we're a team and it's yeah you could just wait we were a team no yeah yeah no i'm sure what no no no i meant like oh we're gonna play teams so you can just trade every everything for everything i mean a queen for a pawn basically let's see yeah of course this is a four-player immortal yeah it seems so oh no coming from behind what does this move oh that pawn is pinned eric is disgusting at this game this is what is this eric oh thank you that's just terrible that's just terrible how does this man have four queens yeah i don't know we allowed following antonio's opening all right by the way eric you know you can claim wins right really oh i didn't know that yeah if i had to take me to get enough points but where does it say claim win oh you're right because i was down i was down points you're right my bad yeah you couldn't climb you couldn't that was pretty pretty intense i feel so accomplished

This was super fun.

[u/blutacpineapple]

Eric is the best chess streamer. So classy.

[u/IR_CySGOd]

How does that even work?

[u/cthai721]

4 player chess is really fun to play. Wonder if they want to add that to the mobile app cuz I played most of my games on mobile.

[u/Kaloyan12]

The 4 horesmen

[u/johnkz]

The banter reminds me of EDH if you play Magic lol

[u/TheRealOlePedro]

I would like to try this one looks fun and challenging at the same time

[u/Pibonacci_]

Don't know the rules of this in detail, but at 23:30, if Agadmator takes the red pawn with his queen, is that not just checkmate and he gets 20 points and wins? Red can't just take back because he is checked from two directions and has no king move?

[u/ikefalcon]

My God Levy is annoying as fuck. Every word out of his mouth is to inform you how smart he is. Even as Eric was in the process of checkmating him, he had to let Eric know what a bad move it was to allow him to checkmate Hikaru. And there were like 3 other times throughout the video where he just burst at the seams to let Antonio know that he kept missing good moves.
