What a gentleman. Thank you for this
Thanks.
themks dude
Who are you?
Thanks pookie
Love the weekly how to win at chess on Sundays. I know he mentioned the views are less, but this is some of my favorite content from him. I watch this series on repeat.
Levy is giving the "only for you my friend" Vibe from the course disounts
Cool it with the anti semitism.
I like how the 1100 player is playing the Benko gambit one of the hardest openings to learn and master
Agreed.. it's complex yet he did his best..
that is, in the long run, probably going to pay off for him
"lowest elo of around 1100-1200" ... me watching this as a 400 elo :(
400 elo chess is full of blunders. to become 800 elo all you have to do is focus on not giving away pieces for free. let your opponent make the mistakes and punish them.
do quizzes, learn the basics of an opening and basic tactics (pins, skewers, forks, discovered attacks) and play longer (15 min+) games
me watching it as someone hardstuck on elo 1000-12000 for about a year now🥶
just in case gotham changes it the original title was "ONLY FOR TODAY!!!!!!!!!"
"ONLY FOR TODAY!!!!!!", 6 exclamation marks
Part 2 th-cam.com/video/FPwuLfdJdDM/w-d-xo.html
@jankkhvej434 yeah. What a blunder
Here before this goes viral.
It is still that
I'm kinda impressed that no one ever tried to cheat against Levy in a "How to win at Chess"
people totally do
Happens all the time. When he is certain he plays a machine in a format like rapid 5 minutes, he has won several games by playing so defensively that the machine loses on time. Quite a feat, really!
there's one instance of someone cheating against levy in how to win at chess, it was a 2000 elo who later got banned, and lost to time against levy
It's happened. Also on his rating climbs
There’s one episode where a 900 plays better than all of his other opponents. Sketchy play
The first guy played very well for an 1100
Was it you?
He was using an engine so he didn’t look stupid. Then he “collapses” like a regular 1100.
Imagine Levy somehow got stuck at 1100. I know it would never happen but the idea is just kind of funny.
@@lateniteboredyou're just mad because he's better then you kid
@@lateniteboredno there’s some 1100s who know ton of theory
16:42 Levy: Stop playing hope chess.
Also Levy: Let’s see if my opponent sees it.
I won 4 matches with 89.9 % accuracy avg felt like i am king of world went to tournament lost now crying
dam
Yeah something similar happened to me. Seriously depressing shit
@@ThatOneChocolateAddict i am levy's regular viewer and i am sad because he dont make any video like top 10 tactics
Try to get the opening consistent.
Got me 300 points
@@Mr_CyberCookie i tried bruh i am 1700 from 1 year its like stagnant i win 4 matches then lose four
1:22
That laugh 💀
Great stuff again. I appreciate how you don't edit out games you're not happy with. Also, with regards to the theme of the series, the games show how to win, even if on occasion it's your opponent, or when the position gets to the point where one should see a draw as a win. As much as those may hurt, they are instructive; maybe sometimes even more as you can explain what you were thinking, and what you missed, when the game goes awry! It's all part of the plan after all. :)
This is a beautiful opinion of
yours, thank you for appreciating GothamChess as much as I do
this is my favorite series, so glad that you're back to posting these regularly 🙏🙏
my fav series! this one was super informative for the lower level players that have those blunders and misses majority of their games :D thank you for keeping that in and showing how to recover/hold a position
Bought your book recently and even though i consider myself a pretty seasoned well rounded chess player I enjoyed it a lot! Cheers
You mean you bought.. The boooook!!!
Heyyy gotham please keep uploading these win at chess videos i find them super duper helpful!!
at this point i just watch anything he throws out there😂
Levy’s Good I didn’t follow for awhile usually only Agadmator and Epic Chess but I like a lot of Levy’s Content and his personality
1:20 Guys chill, he was just eating rocks, don't make fun of him.
I love how the first guy doesn't see the double fork as an 1100 but I stg my opponent sees that 9/10 times at 500 ELO
You stg? What does it mean?
@@yanair2091swear to god
@@yanair2091 Swear to god
Thank you Levy for your content! I just started to play chess and the way you explain every move is fascinating. Thank you again!
The series was about Levy having hard times vs low rated players and man, he had it and man, we had fun.
great to see longer videos again. super instructive!
O.K. boomer
This series is really helpful. I have not really played a lot of games, but the mid-game ideas really help me a lot (although I still fall into traps like being forked etc lol)
"I'm not going to let my opponent have fun" the general sentiment I feel goes through everyone who plays head hahs
Hey Gotham, it would be good to know the game review rating for you, proving or helping you know that you did play like a 1100 or 1500 or not
I love this series. Keep em coming Gotham
Love the how to win at chess series and respect that even if you lose or draw you take it well and still post it. Pls keep doing this series
Thank you for still making this series!
I'm like 90% sure that the 1500 had no idea that c4 had any tricks, and about 75% sure that the 1700 didn't see the trick after h5
2nd title was How To Win at Chess FOREVER
I love those longer videos! :)
I was deployed and too busy for the last 6 months to really watch levy or play chess, I am even more terrible than I already was. I missed you Levy.
i missed you too
It happens just don't get discouraged remember we play chess cause we think it's fun
Thank you for your service
Don’t other guys where you’re at play chess ♟️
Stop serving ZOG.
This series is my favourite thanks, i binged it when i started chess and boosted my elo
I love it when you show your struggles with chess... makes me feel better for always throwing my phone after every game...
That was a great episode Levy thanks ! I really enjoyed when you explained the finishing skills with the 2 queens. I think you could make a whole video on chess finishing skills especially for blitz. Sure people can teach you openings and tactics and strategies and matting patterns and pawn play, but finishing skills, that's what wins games especially blitz and bullet games. I forget some of these finishing techniques especially in low time. I cant seem to think of many chess content out there on finishing skills... sure knight and bishop but there's a whole lot more finishing skills out there. How well do you know them all ? Thanks Gotham... " FINISH HIM "
Levy you’re still a truly wonderful coach. Would love to see some more common openings, like just play the open Sicilian instead of a3. Titled players never want to get into a theory battle with lower ranked but those are the lines we the viewers see and play so much and would be helpful. A bit more E4 E5 to see all the Italian and Spanish and scotch lines. Thank you for what you do.
Very good idea 💡 to start with the best players. I wonder why you didn't think of that earlier. Its obviously the way to go.
Please don't stop making this series. It's the only series I religiously watch.
Levy never fails to fill me up with 102 mins of educational content
😂
My dad wants you to stop posting chess videos because he said “He is getting to hard to beat”
This series is my favourite. Keep it up. Thank you.
E4,c5 sicilian i like the immediate d4 the Smith-Morra Gambit
I really enjoy this series. I learn so much! Thanks for sharing your knowledge of the game in this way.
I like the idea of playing stronger opponents first. Or splitting up the games over two sessions. Love the series.
Thank you for bringing this series back Levy
Please don’t stop the Sunday uploads I love this series
I like how you opted taking the knight going a piece up and just going about winning the game after that a good game by your opponent but a way better game by you especially the endgame Grabbing that passed pawn after threatening checkmate with your rook and knight that worked out so Great
Levy never fails to have seen that move.
this has become my new favorite series especially watching these while fasting
Love this series Levy!
1:13:07 i love how both of them missed Na5 which just traps the queen in one move
Got 4 of your courses. Definitely the money’s worth. I just finished Caro but I’ll give it another onceover before redoing tactics mc. Then I’ll tackle endgame mc that’s really advanced stuff.
I personally got the caro and middle games courses, haven’t finished the caro course but so far it’s been super insightful. Definitely worth the money
@@sorablank9954 yeah and once is not enough to get all those courses can offer. Its a good idea to get 3-4 of them and then put on repeat for a while, but in alternation.
And you may want to complete middlegames before Caro. It’ll help you understand the ideas of Caro course better.
And @GothamChess, cover Ruy Lopez and king’s Indian please! I’ll get them as soon as you put them up!
At 1:39:31 I think your opponent had a nice idea to play pawn takes knight f6 and after QxQb3, the opponent can play pawn f7 threatening Rh3 mate. You would still be winning but you would have to sac your bishop on f6 to allow whites king to escape to g7( if RxBf6 then white can play Re1+ leading to mate. If PxRe8 then white can take back with rook and be up the exchange). Good luck on becoming GM levy!
Gotham could you make more Vienna game content, love the Vienna, u introduced me to it tbh, but I wanna learn more
Bro just trying to get rid of the kid shock gets another shock from a 2200.😅
my favourite series, i love it :D keep it up gotham
today's title - "ONLY FOR TODAY!!!"
Touché Levy
Normal people seeing a 2200 be like who is this beast ?
Hikaru : who is this random ?
53:39 If i was with black,i woulda played long castle. Is something wromg with that?
i appreciate all the content levy but i just love tournament recaps more than anything (probably historical games also)...
Hope some tournament starts soon...
Playing the toughest opponent first might be better for future episodes? Fresh mind is so strong
the giggle at 1:20 is the best thing ever
I won 11 straight game last night to reach 1326 rating using Gotham course
This type of educative videos is what you know the community loves Gotham, thanks!
@ 1:34:48 I understand it would be great to take black's white square bishop, but why not exchange it for knight, instead of Levy's excellent light squared bishop?
At 37:02 I think there is a forcing line to win a rook with the Qa2+, which doesn’t take too long to calculate. I might be wrong, but it seems like the king can be pushed away from protecting the rook, which in few moves would be taken at e2 by the queen.
I gotta run the engine to check that
Yup, I was right, the Qa2+ move here is the winner. The line actually is even more brutal with the checkmate being delivered: 34... Qa2+ 35. Re2 Rf3+ 36. Ke1 Qa1+ 37. Kd2 Rd3+ 38. Kc2 Qa2+ 39. Qb2 Qc4+ 40. Kb1 Rd1+ 41. Qc1 Rxc1+ 42. Kb2
QC3+ 43. Ka2 Ra1#
Still, Levy showed an instructive trade that leads to a winning endgame. Thank you so much for the content, your chess helps me see such lines ❤
I love this series.
me actively checking discord
levy: sorry that was my discord
gotham do it like you start with the best, then go down to the worst, then back up to the best. you get multiple games within the same elo range and you will be more fresh throughout. And... most importantly... MORE CONTENT!!!! Love you gotham my brother x
@GothamChess could you at some point explain how to use the evaluation bar correctly when analyzing games? For example, computer says 0.7 advantage for a particular move but my move is 0.5 advantage, did I make a mistake? How big of a difference is too much? Thank you!
I like how you know that you have to take on Checkers. That's how my dad plays, but none of my friends growing up thought it was a real rule.
Great video. Not a shocker because your how to win at chess series is always highly informative.
Hey Gotham I know these videos don’t necessarily perform the best, but I really enjoy how to win at chess and I appreciate you doing them!
This is my favourite series now ngl
Your series is always a highlight of my week, and I genuinely look forward to it every time! Don't worry about the last game - . Keep up the fantastic work!
This is awesome learning content. Thanks Levy!!
I always look at how many decor items u have on that one little table- i think it would look really great if you hung some of them on the wall instead! Less cluttered + we could see them all more easily
It’s interesting to watch the games live and then come back to hear the commentary with it
I would love a montage of every time he’s said “and my opponent is not in live chat/ online/ ready” 😂
Thnk you i love these kind of videos it helps me a lot understand how i should play
I really love these episodes, Levy. Thank you for the content and your commitment
I had stopped playing chess for 2 years but your videos motivated me to start again. My grandfather taught me how to play it when I was a kid, so it reminds me of him🥰
By the way, there’s a possibility you have allergy that’s why you sneeze a lot.
Your nose looks red as well which also supports my theory (not a freak just a doctor 😇)
Levy changed the Title 😂
"My brain just gets fried after staring at the screen for 90 minutes" Next time start with the rating 2200-1200
Lets enjoy while we can
i love the pause before every single video lol
You are a Metal Slug God! Impressive performance! I was shocked by how you killed the final boss. I beat this game with 1cc but on lv-4. I gotta learn how to finish it on lv-8. A whole different story lol kudos, my friend! You are The Master! 👏🏼
this is your best series
17:45 queen af3# is mate in one btw I don’t mind trying to find mate in ones time to time heh
'tistic word of the day changed from "instructive "to "reasonable"
I can't wait to win at chess only for today and never again, thanks Levy
Levy never fails to pronounce frappé wrong and annoy the Greek audience
Is that the best you can think of? Copy the same 3 year old comment and repeat it like the rest
27:07 that was your discord... I shearched for 5 minutes on discord to find why I got a notif
28:01 i thought you had an idea but you just captured back
27:30 if you would’ve taken the pawn at b4 you lock down either two rooks or a queen and a rook. I think it’s a good move because it applies pressure and usually that leads to poor decisions.
levy never fails to levy in his videos
First opponent played some great moves for an 1100. Wish they would have seen Qc8.
37:00 Qa2, game over but levy didnt find that😅
Did levy just hang his queen, Na5 in 1:13:14 position.
never.
It would be great if you could do these in a secondary account it would make the experience more realistic, to make sure you're not stealing rating from innocent people you could play unrated games
