    As someone who’s around 500 ELO, I feel like the talent pool is all over the place. Some people play like 200, some play like 1000. To say “there no chance a 500 sees this” feels a bit unfair, I’ve seen moves like these made on both ends fairly commonly.

    • @qb0
      @qb0 Před 7 měsíci +10

      I agree. 5-600 range in bullet, in particular, is far west. People don't do "normal" openings: they apply tricks and traps. Levy was lucky in finding the total newbie.
      As a 1.2k ELO in rapid, I had to struggle a lot (and to learn some "safe" openings) to reach at least 700, where matches start to become "normal".

      No I could totally see that. Would I always in a game? No, but could I? Yeah easily. Half the time it comes down to whether my eyes wandered to that side of the board to spot it in the first place, lol

    Gotham: He finds the fork. Now why did you put your knight there?
    Second opponent: i forgor💀

    I think the guy in bullet just assumed that you took his knight and just payed attention to the other side of the board

    This was really exciting to watch! I hope that the opponents find this video to review their performances against you.
    I would like to see other ELO levels - 800, 1000, 1200, 1500, 1800, 2000. I think that analysis of games at these levels would be really instructive, as well as entertaining!

    To be fair, at 500elo a knight might be worth more than a rook.

  • @lukereynolds2139
    @lukereynolds2139 Před 11 měsíci +1

    I think if the first opponent didn’t end up forcing you to take his rook, then losing his other rook, he would’ve had a higher elo
