Hello
1500 players are like a combination of a GM and drunk 900. Sometimes they find absolute beautiful combinations like these either on accident or by pure calculation and sometimes are also able to hang their queen in one move or get back rank checkmated. Its truly beautiful what 1500s can do
Lol so true.
I can 100% confirm this as a 1500 myself
I can confirm, though I hung my queen and fell to 14 hundred
im 1400 and i wholeheartedly agree with this
I am a 1500 Yesterday I played a game , opponent made two brilliant moves, was saccing knights and bishops like crazy, then proceeded to hang a piece and queen and resign
No way a 1500 ELO saw that 11-move checkmate. He saw he was getting mated in one, so he threw a prayer.
hahahahhaha
probably he saw check every move and see checkmate after 7-8 moves
Probably was aiming for a draw and accidentially won.
He/she probably already gave up but wanted to be annoying to the opponent, so he/se searched for every forcing move
Probably, "how I'll check until I'm mated. OH WAAAAAIIITTT"
I’ve been in blacks position, there’s absolutely zero calculations happening. That’s purely survival mode engaged at full throttle. Absolutely fantastic.
Depends on the player, I have had times where I just look for every sacrifice to maybe stall and other times where I see 8 checks in a row which allow me to get in a much better spot.
same but I usually get mated when that happens
Respect for white who actually let the mate to be delivered. Many players just resign or even worse, stall the clock to zero
You really think white though they were getting mated by a queen and a pawn and the a bishop that moved twice in the game?
yeah exactly, this was amazing.
@@DeJay7 As an intermediate, white has the LAST CHANCE to resign when the bishop slides in. That bishop check should definitely be enough for white to realize the mating attack. But no, white let black to finish the checkmate
@@DeJay7 Yeah, I Wouldn't be surprised if neither player realized it was over until black saw he could bring in the bishop, That's just my guess tho.
@@Noschool100 No he definetly saw it, moves were played fast.
Considering their rating, I would say black played Rb1+ when they saw they could get their queen in. Didn't see the entire sequence but then stumbled upon the winning combination after Qxc2. They saw that they could not stop checkmate and played Rb1+ as the final resort. Ended up working out.
why are you assuming he didn't see it?
@@eleonarcrimson858 Considering that it’s definitely not normal for a 1500 to calculate an 11 move combination, it’s a perfectly reasonable assumption
It’s good advice to take. When you think you’ve lost, instead of resigning, look for checks.
@@sidmate13 it's not that hard. They are basically the only checks here. Some 1500 are actually very good but lose because they just aren't good blitz players and lose in time trouble or don't learn theory on tricky openings, silly gambits because they probably play classical games and just "train" or play for fun in online and nobody plays them there (because they just don't work). That doesn't really matter here though. He played the first moves probably because they were only checks or which allowed continuing checking and saw the mate when they played qd2 not qc1
@@onniruusunen9444 wdym it's not that hard. Delusional
Yeah, there's been several games where I'm like "I think I did good" just to see the game report giving me a dozen blunders 🤣
Even worse... "I think I was comfortably winning the whole game."
Stockfish said my opponent had +33.9.
But does it count when 8 of those are (for example) "you never saw bishop b5 for eight moves?" That's not 8 blunders, that's one blunder.
@@yoseftreitman7226 true
@@yoseftreitman7226 In that game, I think it was most of the game that my opponent was completely winning (if only he would attack my king, I don't think in any specific way) he just didn't, and I didn't notice that he could.
Had a game were I had 6 blundered times in a row, not because I actually blundered, but because my opponent did, and I didn't pick up on it . LOL
the best mate I've seen was in 4 moves,it was so brilliant I started crying,since it was I who lose that
*Pain.*

Here I posted a video of it
The beauty of the Sicilian is that often the players castle opposite sides and we see strong attack with counter attack. Usually ending up in an exciting game.
dammn i didn't know1500 elo play so well..
Even same sides castles Sicilians are rich and exciting.
Yeah exactly, I know levy says not to play it but I love it, I win a lot of games and every game is exciting and different from the get go
@@lewisoutten1610 it's a question of sample and consistency. probably some 1500 plays 1 game of 1000 as 2200
I really enjoy this content about middle - higher rate players. Very instructive, also Levy makes it fun to watch
I love this far more than any video that discusses the many blunders made by terrible players. Those have been done so often that theyre boring. Its always the same format. The intermediate level games are by far the best,theyre not bad enough to be 200,but theyre not good enough to be 2500,theyre very human, and their thought process is very useful for lower rated players
I remember when I was around 800 Elo and sacrificed my knight for around a mate in 15. Obviously I did not see the mate but I did evaluate that it was a pretty dangerous attack and that I would be winning at least three points on material back. Anyway, there was only one issue. The queen that took my knight checked my king across the board. Can't really say I was happy after that.
Lol been there
@@NathanHedglin me too
its like dominating a soccer game for 90 minutes and then lose 1:0 cause of a 30 meter banger in 90+3
It's called football mate
@@tiny_elvis2375shut up eurotard
@@tiny_elvis2375Not EVERYONE calls it football💀
People saying it's easy to find. Yeah sure, thinking of it like a tactic, cuz you know it exists, but seeing you can get mated in one move and possibly can't prevent it and finding the exact move order is VERY impressive. Congrats to the guy playing. Proud of my fellow 1500
Well in this case I'm sure the player didn't even know the check mate was in 11. He just saw he was facing a mate in 1, and so literally the only hope is to block with checks. I'm sure after the first few checks the player started to realize there was incoming mate, not just evading the mate he was facing.
Less to do with finding a mate in 11 and more to do with them just looking for any possible checks. It was game over on white's next move so black just kept prolonging the match on checks and unexpectedly chanced into a beautiful sequence.
Levy: "Have you ever played a game that was exceptionally bad?"
Me: *thinks back to the game where i missed a free queen and attacked it with horsey instead*
"Nah, just the usual ones"
Relatable 😭
Me: every one of them. I'm terrible.
One time I had 3 BRILLIANT MOVES! And I was just 498 in rapids, and it made me so excited. Even “a great move” makes my day :)
@@cewla3348 nah
@@KioDronee he removed his comment what did he say
As a 700 i had 2 brilliant moves in a row trapping a queen
its like levy is always saying in this series. you can accidentally find mate by checking repeatedly when being threatened with mate
Big fan of the b-pawn, which literally just marched across the whole board untouched and helped the queen deliver a mate. Absolute badass
Levy, thank you for helping me learn chess, my niece and I have developed a bond/rivalry like no other thanks to your inspiration. Have a good day brother!
awww, that's sweet :) good luck with your chess escapades
Never allow COUNTERPLAY from your opponent, always check. I learnt this a 2 weeks ago, when I blundered a winning position.
This game shows how the queen is the most powerful piece
15:36 Rb1 turned out to be a move that really does make sense.
Black was like a cornered beast. He threw everything and looked for checks. (And thats what Levi always says)
Levy, you are a gift to this universe! I can't imagine CZcams without you dominating the chess scene

bro wants a pin so bad
Pin baiter
@DontGetBackranked 🤣🤣
lmao
At first I was like “wait I counted 10 moves” but realized that Nb4 to block Qb5 delays the mate by one move.
It was easy to find once I knew there was an M11. Rook b1 was the only forcing move that allowed the queen to get to the b2 square and everything after that is also quite findable. However huge compliments to the dude for finding in it a match (hopefully) without knowing the eval of the position. I am 1750 and I am very impressed. And I was proud for finding mate in 6, seems silly now :D
The thing with having a high elo is just constancy. I’m like 1200 and win 10 games in a row with a few brilliancies and I can follow that streak with my queen getting trapped or speared back to back games to put me on a 10 lose streak
Not blundering hasnt that much to do with elo. The higher elo, the better their (natural) understanding of the game is. 1200’s f.e. shouldnt blunder pieces away. Especially not in 1 or 2 moves
@@YouGotTheFlue depends on what kind of match. It is still gonna happen in blitz. Rapid not as much
@@GudMarty I can understand bullet, not blitz. Im also not talking about getting forked or multiple move blunder but if person A makes a move attacking a piece which isnt defended and person B doesnt move or defend it
ok that was legitimately awesome at the end. that would be a solid weekend puzzle of the day. it's funny cause it probably started with spite checks before he realized he had something but still amazing.
That 11# combination is both brilliant and easy in the same time. Its brilliancy depends solely on the person who played it - a 1500 player.
There is a reason for calling it "intermediate level" - both players are perfectly capable to attack the opponent's king and to defend their own, but there are mistakes all over the place - inaccuracies in attack and defence, missed chances of small tactics and improvements, simply unacceptable moves (like that "f7-f6", pointed out by Levy himself), a lack of prophylactic moves, again - like "b2-b3" move, which can save wK from any trouble.
The second move from that combination - 2.Rb1+! - implies that Black can use his full attacking potential, which is hard thing to do for this level, it requires sharp eye and broad vision, on the entire board. Beginners and Intermediate players often find it difficult to pinpoint which pieces can participate in attack or defence (or both, or swiching roles...), believe me, I'm dealing with this every day.
So, in our case 2.Rxc2+? leaves black with only 2 attackers - bQa5 and bpc3, wich is insufficient... but 2.Rb1+! also adds bBc8 as third piece in attack and White has no defenders - wRg1 and wBh4 are bad defenders, obviously., no wonder there i a checkmate.
What makes this combination so easy and straightforward then? Hm, the beauty is in the eye of the beholder... every experienced player will find all moves instantly, especially when they have to play under a threat of checkmate in 1.
However, all this isn't so unusual to happen... and I'll explain why - there is a transition period between states of intermediate and advanced player when such a player can play both awful and brilliant moves in one game, it's a part of players overall progress.
Nice instructional video on broad set of themes, how (not) to attack, how (not) to defend, how to counterattack, what is "prophylactic move",... the list goes on, and Mr. Levy fully covered it.
This is why playing super complicated and dynamic opening like najdorf is so much fun even if you know only till the beginning of the variation.But you have to adjust your mindset when white decided to play boring and solid lines.
Levy you have helped me go from 350 to 670 elo in under 2 weeks. Your easy to comprehend and understand explanation’s are brilliant. Never stop

Hell yeah brother keep going!

And captures, captures.
Levi "Agadmator" Rozman
The rook sacrifice on b1 is beautiful and the pawn supports the queen after. Don't know how deliberate the bishop position was but it certainly played it's part in the end.
This was brilliant indeed. One by one or three by three these moves are findable at almost any level. But the 11 move sequence is beautiful.
I mean, black was probably like "Oh i gonna get chackmated lets do some checks and see how it goes". Still good rook sacrifice, the only possible move to deliver the check in that position thus it was spotted and probably not with plan to make concrete checkmate in 11 but still good job for the guy :D
white was so cocky, with his best position and space advantage, feels good to see him get checkmated
Bro was hanging by a thread but got away beautifully
same thing happened to me today lol. i sacd every piece i had and i was 1 move away from unstoppable mate. but then my opponent found some 10 move mating sequence and i lost
Thanks for all the amazing content Levy! Your chess recaps and explanation videos are really amusing. You are the number one chess youtuber for me (and im sure a lot of other viewers of your channel probably share my opinion). Keep up your amazing work!

"I'm smashing you on the queen side"
Levy 2022
Look at how angry Stockfish gets when you don't find force mate in 11
I would like to see more videos like this. It was educational and entertaining at the same time.
Just compare his energy level in this video and any candidate video.
Casim after this match : "Bring me Magnus"
I am stunned by me being able to find 8 of the 11 moves. That was genuinely beautiful.
Levy have my children pls
Can you please cover more intermediate games like these
For some reason I've just developed an incredible urge to rewatch the Daigo parry.
So black realizes they're losing and fires up an engine to bail them out. Classic online chess.
Damn I really enjoyed this video, the energy is very positive in this one, good stuff.
I'VE NEVER BEEN PROUDER OF MYSELF i found the entire 11 moves
Black: While you're too busy threatening me, your king will be going for a walk.
He won't return.
Amazing finding M11, knowing that your only way to not get mated is to just keep checking the king
Gotham is really one of the best chess channels on CZcams right now
no shit hee has 1.5 mill subs
I didn’t found the 2nd move it that good
This is an example of the supreme beauty levy mentions from time to time in regards to the flow and tennor of chess.
16:38 you really revved that fucker up, too. "BISHOP" and then immediately realized the blunder.
This was a beautiful content and WHAT A COMEBACK, I would had resigned as black
That’s why before resigning, look for checks. Just as a last resort. You never know what they could lead to.
I SO like these videos about bad chess games, they make me feel like i'm super grandmaster.
Ego boost
this... isn't a bad game...
well yes
this isn't a bad game actually. It's really good tactical game (by intermediate standard) with some extremely aggressive overconfident plays which leads to an entertaining game which intermediate players like us can relate to.
but he is right about the bad games
Can’t see how this is brilliant. He sees he’s going to lose, so as anyone would do he just keeps checking and hoping for something to happen
High quality intermediate games are great because you see more mistakes and can get models for more ways to capitalize on mistakes.
Really wonderful explanation of Sicilian themes and common mistakes for intermediate players!
No regrets watching this, so incredible!!
levy consistently confuses ‘went’ and ‘gone’
Had a brilliant early game queen sacrifice the other day, felt like a genius for a moment 😂
Hey, my game has been featured here. Thanks a lot gotham.😃
yea bro ,and im cristiano ronaldo
@@anmol.1338 sewy
If you're wondering, at 2:35 the knight can't take the 'free' pawn, because you can trap the opponent's queen with a NB5 sacrifice.
It was actually mate in 10 because levy didnt show white's move to delay mate one extra move by playing knight b4 when queen b5 check was played.
Rook B1 comes back to save us in our darkest day. Amazing.
3:04 Literally me when talking to my friends.
It was pretty easy to find considering black had to find an all out attack otherwise they get mated and that most if not all of the moves in this sequence were forced
I don't know whether he saw that or just gave a bunch of very good checks. Either way, he saw he could sack his rook to at least get a perpetual which is very impressive and the bishop combination was very cool.
I think I played a game the other day that broke the record for the most missed forced mate sequences.
0:12 everytime I say GG to myself
Analysis : we don't do that here
I just had one, actually, by blundering my light square bishop to prevent my planned Calatan into short castle against a player who'd seen the Catalan before. I might submit that game just for shits and giggles, even though I play to have fun.
I'm still hanging queens and mate to bots, that sequence blew my mind 🤣
"Call an ambulance....BUT NOT FOR ME"
After extensive research I found out where this scene comes from. It is a tv series called the sea beyond or mare fuori (the same name I just put the English translation first)
The evaluation scale dropped like a dead bird!
The "Daigo vs Justin Evo 2004" moment of chess.
As a low-rated player, I tend to get these when I realize my opponent has mate in 1 so all my moves have be checks.
Doesn't always save the game, but it always feels epic. 😂
there was actually a game between 2 gms in which one was in a losing position so he did a series of checks until he actually won
"Do not push pawns where you are being attacked" - I have been thinking about pawns for a while. I am an intermediate beginner level player (1200 or so) and I still have trouble knowing how to best use my pawns in different scenarios. I often call it "pawn blindness". Would you consider a video on how to use your pawns? I have tried looking, but there isn't a lot out there, truth be told. Love your content btw, Levy! Keep up the good work :)
@Dhruv Acharya Oh, pretty certain I have seen it, and I have his beginner and intermediate courses. I am guessing it's more a video on when to capture with a pawn or a piece, or how to use pawns effectively, or when to attack with a pawn rather than a piece. That sort of thing, I guess.
My guess is Black was just being a sore loser not resigning and fighting. He was like let me run out of checks before I resign, but he didn't.
"King b1, king a1 then fall off the map" got me... 🤣 yeet outta here bro
Rb1, Rb1, make a move that's just brilliant
Found mate in 11, no way you're 1500
12:24
"You can not lose this game with white" Levy.
Are you underestimating my power ??!
I love how it was actually checkmate in 10 because black didn’t sacrifice something with to slow it down that extra move
'Have you ever played a chess game that was exceptionally bad' Fuck me where do i start
"Ladies and gentlemen, have you ever played a chess game?"
Well, I wouldn't call what I play "chess" but yeah I play something that resembles chess.
Levi: BISHOP oh dwa bla
looks like levis forgotten 900 elo self resurfacing
**BAD DAD FOR TAKING ALL YOUR SISTERS TROPHIES & RECYCLING THEM!!!**
The redemption arc of Rb1😂
It looks more like a desperate 1500 that thought they're lost and threw every check they found until they saw mate in 2
12:20 disappointed Levy didn't tell me "and you're perfect too"
That is how I play. No mercy. I hang my queen, the rooks, everything. And sometimes I find mate in 10. Some games I feel like Tal....some games, like a fool.
Amazing. This is a great example of Never Resign.
Many, many years ago (about 40 years ago) I was around 1500-1600 ELO and I played in a tournament where in my game I got to an interesting position with a lot of help from my opponent where I came up with a fantasy combination which resulted in a position where I had both knights and my queen en prise. GM Tony Miles wandered past, glanced at the board, stopped and then concentrated on the board for a short time, then wandered off chuckling.
A few moves later I had mated my opponent with a 2 knight smothered mate, I was very proud of myself - subsequently of course I realised the whole combination was fundamentally unsound and at best would have led to a slight edge for me. But at least I had made Tony Miles chuckle (may he rest in peace)
I mean, rook B2 is the only move in that position that stops mate in one. From there, I can see someone accidentally falling into this mate.
Rook b1 rook b1 made its way from a meme move to the brilliance
@GothamChess; Please don't make episodes less than 30min. The way you explain is masterclass. Your the one reason I started loving chess. Keep guiding us. Thanks
