400 ELO Player: *blunders *
Levy: I don’t hate that move.
The wrong move for the right reason is better than the right move for the wrong reason. One might win you a match, but the other will make you better at chess
Come on dude. You do not judge the moves of a 400 the same as you judge a 2000.
I don't see no mistakes in the game
@@icancu9680 Fine, I will Take back my comment
literally hangs mate: I don't hate that move either
GMs: 'The London's a solid opening, but pretty drawish.'
400s: 'Couldn't agree more'
😂😂😂
Thanks, now my lungs hurt from all the wheezing
Spoiler
I’m dead 😂🤣😂🤣
😂😂😂
"White has a broken leg, but is still kicking it's opponent." Best analogy ever
😂😂😂😂
Dude so strong he can kick his opponent using only sheer willpower!!! 😳😱
Never even heard of the 50-move rule. I'm learning a lot from these 400s
Hahaha same
because it's almost impossible to reach that mark 😂😂😂😂
I actually drew nelson bot with that LOL
the fide rules say, that after 50 moves a player can claim Remis, but it is not Remis by itself. 75 moves and the arbiter can claim it
in grade school i played in a chess tournament for blue team, not knowing how to play chess at all, and apparently my first opponent didn't know how to play either, there were takes of pawns using bishops left and right, queen was sacrificed without question and without goal, and i somehow made it without losing all the way to a king-queen endgame
i was black and didn't have a queen, but they didn't know how to checkmate with king and queen either, so the head librarian said "no takes in 50 moves, it's a draw"
it felt so intense but it also looked exactly like the endgame in this video lmao
and lmao i just remember playing french defense not knowing wtf a defense is, oh my god
Levy could also title this video "Stockfish vs an Alien rated 4000" remove the eval bar, and pretend to analyze them like they're good moves and I'd still believe it
it could be the alien rated 4,000 made moves so insane that Stockfish didn't realize what was going on
I would maybe believe it until they started hanging checkmate in 1 and then not being able to mate with king and queen lol
No because both sides made obvious blunders
@@daaa2299 wow! i cant believe how smart you are. please teach me this amazing skill of yours.
@@jusu8961 smart is not equal to good at chess. Trained eye would see these blunders
“when you see mate in one, look for better”
- GM Ben Finegold
Mate in one might be obscuring a much funnier way to win (or blunder a loss).
LMFAO that quote just made me spit my coffee! Haha classic!!
XDDDDD
@Andrei Lacerda It's a tough game isn't it
gold
One has to admire the 400's ability to disregard rules and disciplines. Freedom at its purest form.
Libertarian chess.
Are you saying Totalitarianism is better?
It's not disregarding if they don't know the rules to begin with
True, I kinda wish I could be low elo who doesn't know the basic principles as well... Ignorance is truly a bliss... 😔
Amazing
Both players played extremely well: they both had a severe material deficit and forced a draw on their opponent! Master level players.
😅
*These days 400's are so good* When I was 400, a player en passened me, I straight up reported him for cheating.
AYOOOO lmao
It's funny because you still don't know how to spell it.
@@MrGrumbleguts spell it
yea once i took a queen by a discovered attack and my opponent thought i was hacking
Holy hell
I never thought a 400 ELO game getting commentated and analyzed would be so exciting to watch.
I love it
His commentary is the best 🤣
He is the Jomboy of chess.
@@ldesconocido9341 OMG that's who I was trying to think of lol
@@ldesconocido9341 ذذ
Tbh, gotta applaud their dedication. iirc most 400s abandon after 5 minutes. These titans stuck it out for 90+ moves. Impressive
Actually 400s(me) only abandon the game after we blundered our queen
Yep. Hopefully that perseverance will take em far as they try to climb up
@@waffelo4681 I do not abandon, not even then. I know I will probably loose, but sometimes I win and it's epic

I laughed so much, briliant comment
That's simultaneously the most awful anti-climax and the best possible ending for that game. Brilliant.
Does this comment seriously not have any replies
@@qdr1293 It does now :D
@@Narrator007 Lol
.
As a beginner myself, this was the best chess video I've EVER seen in my life. I could really enjoy and understand the game. I mean: when I watch GM's playing most of the time I don't understand anything. They're thinking lots of moves ahead. I can barely think 2. Lots of times they simply agree on a draw I was like: "What? Why aren't you playing? There's a lot of pieces on the boardffs!" And the narration was awesome and thrilled me. The only thing that sets me apart from those 400s is that I know how to check with queen and king. But I'm pretty sure both of them could beat me eventually.
if you're new, just look for forks xD. you'll rocket up the rankings
what's a fork
@@meteorname9395 It's when one piece attacks two or more pieces at the same time.
@@plusnightlife also, pins. 🤣
@@meteorname9395 Fork: (Noun) An instrument having two or more prongs or tines, for holding, lifting, etc., as an implement for handling food or any of various agricultural tools.

Single digit players
Here I am nearing 2 digits

You can absolutely guarantee black wasn't even phased drawing to the 50-move rule. Just entirely thrilled they didn't lose. We need to all be more like that.

@@itsalittlerusty9817 i didn't, it was top comment
he cant lose, thats a thing. if one side has no other pieces it ends in a draw no matter what retarded thing black would do, like give queen
@@omyga2062 top comment is still in the comment section.
"So you see, that is a pretty good london"
The players probably not knowing what the heck they are doing:
I don’t even know what a London is I just always move my two middle pawns up 2 squares, then my two horses up and towards the middle
@@duffal0 that’s principle chess
The pyramid
London opening
When you're more hyped on a game between 400s than a game between GMs
One word.
Relatable.
would you rather watch someone mow the lawn or watch someone severely injuring themselves while mowing the lawn. same principle here. people like it when others mess up.

Hi
Don't mind me askin
Is that azadi tower behind you in your pp?
@@sinahashemi5528 Hey Sina, yes it is. I've been to Iran few times.
Du know what I love about you?!
It's that you're actually very respectful of all players regardless of Elo. Yeah you rant and take the piss sometimes, but actually you're very respectful of all levels.
I just commented half way through then spent the entire 2nd half laughing my tits off!!
Levy is krinsch
“A perfectly played chess game will always end in a draw”
I'm honestly impressed by these 400s. They see incoming moves and respond accordingly MOST of the time, but they just get a bit of tunnel vision sometimes and have troubles with their openings. There's potential for being good players.
most of these low elo could easily be in the 1k+ if they tryed to scan the board just a little more
@@dinamosflams as a 1700 player yep there actually pretty good i know I guy who's in 300+ elo he's actually pretty good he has learned tactics , strategy etc the only problem he doesn't scan the whole chess board when we once played he has so many opportunities to actually put me on check
"This is just a scratch" - Black
"This is just a scratch" - White
"This is just a scratch" - Black
"This is just a scratch" - White
"This is just a scratch" - Black
*tis but a scratch
the meme is "tis but a scratch"
"All right, we call it a draw"
These games are honestly more entertaining than watching the world champs, what a rollercoaster.
This is why train crashes make the news but the competent operation of trains never gets attention.
@@alex0589 Brilliant analogy 😂
More plot twists than Shyamalan.
White: plays the worst move that is available on the board
Levy: THE BEST MOVE!
I think one of the biggest reasons why Levy's been able to ride the chess boom so high is that he makes the game fun. I was watching a bunch of other chess channels and learning a lot, but I ended up getting burnt out because it felt like studying. Watching Levy you can learn while also being entertained.
Low elo games are 1000% better than grandmaster games to watch. I say this as a 700 who can identify with many of the moves made.
White at the middle game: This is but a scratch!
White at the end game: It's just a flesh wound!
White after 50 moves: Alright, we'll call it a draw
Nice reference
Brilliant reference HAHA
Black: "What are you going to do? Bleed on me?"
is it a ck2 reference
@@eth1cal636 Nope, Monty Python and The Holy Grail reference.
I love Levi talking about low elo players having objectives and playing to them and congratulating them. Even if it is suboptimal.
You’re right i did learn two things: I learned that it’s better to move my king safely without pinning my pieces and to take out major players in a winning position so I don’t blunder anything
"I really don't like mate-in-one..."
Yeah - sounds like a 400, to me.
Or Super GM...
"Look, I saw mate-in-one, I just didn't like it"
I think 400 Elo games should be Levy's series on its own. It's funnier than basically everything out there in the chess world and beyond.
And just to mention, Levy said that the pawn move was a complete novelty. If you can study it and make something out of this surprise...hell, why not?
It sort of is an unofficial series. He's done quite a few videos like this recently.
I feel bad laughing at the expense of beginners, but honestly, it’s the commentary that makes it hilarious 🤣
“I don’t like mate in 1” 😭
these guys are so good, magnus carlsen hasn't even beat them.
no cap
stockfish 14 can't beat them
Basically the truth
Carlos Magnusson would!
@@hellohi2413 But stockfish 1 can
It was mutual respect for the other that they chose to end it in an honorable way via them proving they knew the 50 move rule
Just like how Magnus and Hikaru both mutually agreed to draw via Bongcloud repetition.
12:23 I'm very new to chess, and I feel like this every time I blunder my queen... very helpful to see a match at approximately my rating disected by someone good at the game.
Levy's homage to lower rated players is amazing. Makes me feel so good inside. "I don't dislike that move"
"Four hundreds get to break all principles"
I guess horseshoe theory applies also to chess
This is not the reference I expected to see here, but I’ll take it
@@englishmuffinpizzas can you explain the reference
@@ihavetopowerofgodandanimeo2551 pretty much good and bad are opposites but actually they are pretty similar, in this case GMs etc also break principles which is what makes them resemble each other. its the horseshoe cuz the opposite endings end up pretty close
I AM 400 AND 3k AT THE SAME TIME (wot?)
I AM 400 AND 3k AT THE SAME TIME (oh.)
I am the newbie, horseshoe theory's right
I PUSH THE FLANK PAWN AND I HANG MY QUEEN TWICE
I am the newbie BOW before me
Stockfish and Magnus are the same to MEEEEEEE
@@ihavetopowerofgodandanimeo2551 the horseshoe theory basically states that the far left and far right are not that different from each other, like a spectrum shaped in a horseshoe (as a controversial example, you had blacks only bathrooms in the 1950s, and now you sort of have the same thing coming back as a sign of empowerment instead)
I love how it ended in a draw. These two dudes were clearly on the same level
I dunno man, the other guy might actually know how to checkmate with a king and a queen.
I'd really like to thank GothamChess for reviewing my game here. I was white. From the moment I sat down and adjusted the pieces, I knew I had him right where I wanted him the whole time. GothamChess dramatizing the match here is just ...... I don't...... I don't have the words. Bravo. Thank you so much.
Back in the day there was this StarCraft thing called Bronze League Heros(I think you have enough context to figure out what that is) A chess version of that would be so dope. I'm telling you man, you have some gold here
I miss Husky! :-(
Winter still does Bronze League Heroes.
I can't quite get over that Levy just drank coffee with a straw.
IK what disrespect
I mean- I don't see much of a problem with it tbh.
Same
Where I am at, you drink cold coffee strictly with a straw
It must be a cold coffee, if not then it's simply unforgivable! And btw who drinks cold coffee early in the morning?! Not me .

“This is all entirely theory” - Black the entire game

Best Levy quote
You know it's a good game when the eval bar comes with a motion sickness warning....
The Eval bar did more reps than me at the gym.
"if you can get away to safety, you should probably do it; if you can pin your own pieces, you are probably gonna lose the game" as the eval bar falls to white minus a billion
absolutely killed me
I would love a weekly series of you commenting on 400 elo games. My girlfriend can’t believe how much I am laughing at chess videos.
God, I started watching this half asleep and was genuinely crying with laughter by the end of the video. The narrative and the incredulous tone of voice in the endgame are brilliant.
This is an incredible video. It reminds me of that meme where Gordon Ramsey is very kind to a young child in panel one and abusive towards adults in panel two ("you f**king donkey"). In Guess the ELO, Levy practically has steam shooting out of his ears watching some of the ridiculous moves play out on the board. And here, he is so incredibly kind to the lowly 400's. What an absolute gentleman.
Keep up the great content Levy! :)
That's a great comparison.
10:50 I was trying so hard not to laugh the entire video, but it was in this move that I resigned the game 😂🤣
Kudos to representing all levels of players! I’m sure the bloke who submitted this is stoked 👌🏻
This is beauty of low-level chess. So unpredictability, winning chances always jumping from white to black and back. Unlike pro games, you have millions of different openings (not 10 ones) which you can win and lose.
What do you mean pro games only have 10 openings? Opening theory is so vast that new opening variations are still being discovered
Yeah but at the same time they missed a lot of brutal tactics
@@Izukachan he is referring to the fact that most GMs stick to theory, whereas with sub-4-digits you truly do not know what's gonna happen next. Once had a dude open with double-Fianchetto (Owens Defense) on Me playing the Caro and later me playing the London and him doing the Owens Defense with black. You NEVER know whats gonna happen next at these levels
@@Izukachan in any position, where are 20 possible moves, gm would only consider 3-4 of them. Amateurs can a lot more and not be punished for that. They make bad moves in turns and get into positions (sometimes even equal positions), which are not reachable by gms
@@aleksandrmakhov5966 Even if we only consider up to move 5, and 4 options each move, that's 5^4 possibilities
Imagine if someone who didn’t understand ratings saw the GM tag and assumed that this is what Grandmaster games look like
Why does he have it there, just for jokes?
Well, clearly 400 ELO means they are in the top 400 players. Signs: a 400 player
The best chess video I've ever seen. "I mean, it's beyond anybody's pay grade."
I really like the watching such games commented by Levy. This is the one of the best chess video series in TH-cam. It is both funny and kind of "back to basics" stuff in a sense.
God bless all the low-ELO players, for example ... everyone
the "obviously both players know this" from the bishop endgame draw almost made me fell of my chair 14:05
Mate in one is a perfect opportunity for a Zwischenzug move
I like this one. He explains a lot of moves and can still make fun but in supporting ways rather than other times wher it feels more like bashing
These low-rated clown fiestas are the pinnacle of chess content. I really appreciate Levy for showing us the lines where either side could have gained an advantage because it makes their actual moves all the more entertaining.
As a 1031 rated player, I'm still proud of my childhood days of 400s rating matches.
400 for a kid is pretty good ngl. My brother is 9 and he plays like a 100 rated player.
As a 1200 I'm ashamed of mine
Really bad chess is a lot of fun when both people are bad.
@@Zalied I agree. When the other person is good and actually cares about winning, you want to cry internally
It's like that episode of Get Smart where both Maxwell and Seigfried get hit by tranquilizer darts, and have a pathetic fight where they're both weak and slow and about to pass out but everyone is cheering them on.
his commentary about the reason behind each person's decision making lines up perfectly with my thought process
Ah yes, 400 rated games by GM's
Edit: One having initials GG, the other MM
good game, moneymatch
The people who played these are 2 GM's apparently
I guess they are GM's at blundering LOL
I didn’t even know the 50-move rule existed. This is beautiful
It can be really nice if you will add the evaluation bar to guess the elo

Easily the funniest commentary on a game of chess I have ever seen. This had me giggling from start to finish. What a splendid game of chess.
The "What a Terrible Game" evaluation in the thumbnail cracks me up lmfao
I've always wondered how it would feel to be a 400 rated player. It's just crazy to watch them, almost like it's a different game
Whenever i see such games a wave of proudness passes over me knowing that i play so good.
Bro i tell my friends to see this they belive i can fool mate these 400rate people
You're great
Whatever but thanks

@@mhqa_ you think he would post his raw thoughts without checking engine? Slightly Unlikely
@@roydondsa Depends on the depth at which the engine is running.
Something like that has been done. Someone sent a Hikaru game before although Levy cut it from the TH-cam version.

This was the best chess commentary I've ever watched. Thank you man you made laugh like crazy😃
"Taxes unless youre really rich" levy speaks truth

The title battle of 400 elo titans is just maddingly funny
Imagine being a GM with 400 elo
That is technically possible. A GM title is for life and you can lose 2100 points and still be a GM (maybe if you get really injured in a car crash and your brain is just a pile of useless tissue but you still want to keep playing chess for some reason, with only 3 working brain cells).
