“If you are below 1000 there is like a 35% chance they are going to let you take the rook.” I felt that
"And i took that personally"
I’m like 800-500 but I don’t forget stuff I’m maybe not that good but I don’t make my queen disappear or like forget to defend the checkmate
We felt that
Did it once recently... i let it, since opponent reinforcement too many to prevent it, and king protection is weak so i attack the king instead.

This game is a beautiful example of the power of force moves. I remember Levy always reminds us of finding checks, captures, and forced. I never understood forcing moves until this video. This game is incredible to watch and without Levy’s commentary, I would’ve never understood or know about this game. Thank you for educating everybody on this channel!

@@sunitaadhikari6081 i think you are meant to start with your queen, if that doesn't work, try the king

@@HarunX57zt Hm. I guess I found out what I did wrong, I always lost in 4 moves by sacrificing a pawn (and somehow I sacrificed the king on the same move, I am the best at sacrificing)
So queen first or king, no pawns?

I came to this channel for the chess, stayed for the daily emotional support. We love you Levy! ❤️❤️❤️
The amount of content that Levy produces is insane. Mans is on the grind
Why is this video so wholesome today, life advice, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Levy saying he'll be my friend, what a day!
I am in love with the random yu gi oh references, so out of place yet so so necessary.
Just like Tea’s cringe friendship speeches. No normal person expects them in basically any scenario.
You're in rare form with this vid, Sir! VERY entertaining and a hell of a game to boot. Shared this vid to my FB feed to try to boost your fame. You deserve it, good sir!

@@zafirsiddiqui100 no that's chess
What about the Polish Immortal when Miguel Najdorf sacrificed a lot of material just to deliver the final mate with a pawn? You could call it David and Goliath referring to the type of checkmate that was delivered. Also Rubinstein’s Immortal was pretty amazing.
Love your humor and jokes Levy keep it up growing and evolving as it is!
I love that he's a fellow fan of yugioh and references it occasionally. I would love to duel him
I'm loving these game reviews! It could be cool if you lined up a couple of strategically or tactically thematic games and went into detail on e.g. how an isolated d pawn can be a help or a hindrance in different positions - I feel like that'd combine these great game reviews with the lesson videos you've been doing already! Keep up the great work!
My respect for him after mentioning Yu-Gi-Oh! 📈📈
Did he just make a Season 4 mention in one turn? That's against the rules, isn't it?

My sacrifices are so deep that i lose the game before they work
Please cover the game between Mikhail Tal vs Milko Bobotsov 🙏
I WILL‼️ *steals idea*
Bobotsov vs. Tal*, though. There's a story about this game, I think it's about how Tal specifically looked for someone to test the queen sac on.
I'm addicted to Levy's videos. I wish I can play and analyse the game like he does
Day 86: Of requesting Levy to cover opposite coloured bishop endgames.
Especially when you have a slight material advantage of being up by two or three pawns against your opponent and you both have opposite coloured bishops as well.
Why do you need Levy to cover that? It sounds like a boring video and he doesnt wanna do these
If u hv the advantage try to make use of it!!!
@@Alkuf100 How do you know it's boring, clown?
Also you do realise that Bishop endgames are the second most common piece endgames after Rook endgames, right.
Plus you do know that Levy has yet still to cover the basics of any Bishop endgames in general.
The only piece endgames he has covered are King and Rook endgames.
Levy has still yet to post up videos on not just Bishop endgames, but also for Queen and Knight endgames too.
@@bakulshah4367 Levy is first and foremost an entertainer and endgames are all boring as hell. If he was gonna do a video he'd probably do a compilation of every kind of endgame in one long video but idk
@@m_uz1244 Yet another idiotic statement.
What you utterly fail to realize is that endgames are an essential part of the game.
It doesn't matter if you get a slight material advantage of say one or two pawns from the opening or middlegame if you're unable to convert said advantage.
Endgames are an essential part of the game on how to convert said advantage, if you're unable to checkmate or make your opponent resign during the opening or middlegame.
He sacrifice piece: BRILLIANT!!
