  Levy got a full lesson for free from Hikaru. Rather than discussing moves and getting straight to the point for any of these games, Hikaru instead gave him insights and discussions behind the ideas and moves. They both did it like this as if they had all the time in the world. 🤣Pretty crazy if you've seen the other games and see how other pairs worked together. Everyone else pretty much did it the same way, but Hikaru did it like a coach and Levy was his student.

  When I was looking at the game live, it felt as if Levy didn’t contribute that much. Looking back at it, his insight actually helped Hikaru not to overlook certain moves in certain calculations.

  I love this format. Players articulating their thoughts and weighing up different variations gives so much insight into their way of thinking.

  in the coding community, there is a concept of &quot;pair programming&quot;. &nbsp;it works best with one driver and one navigator - this is exactly how hikaru and levy operate. &nbsp;hikaru is making the decisions, but Levy makes the moves, suggetsions, and counterpoints. &nbsp;it is beautiful to watch
