Teen Hikaru Casually Eating Grandmaster for Breakfast.

It was no question...

Just like the Alirezas, Praggs and Abdusattorovs of today, young grandmaster Hikaru Nakamura was one of the brightest stars during his teenage years. He was not the only one of course - Grandmasters Grischuk, Carlsen, Karjakin and Radjabov also shared the spotlight.

However, Hikaru displayed a quality unique to his own style - uncompromising aggression. This young grandmaster played a style easily described as: To burn or be burned. And his tactics were sharp. Very sharp.

It comes with no surprise then, now at the peak of his "streaming" career that his rapid-fire tactics are unparalleled. Hikaru has had the benefit of seeing thousands of blitz positions online and impose his calculative-will on them. Combined with natural talent and more than 10,000 hours of training, this is why Hikaru is nearly unbeatable online.

I hope you enjoy the finish he displayed in this game. Cheers!
