Levy's recaps in a nutshell: And this was the best move and I wanted to play it and I didn't and then he played this and this move just didn't occur to me at all and then I was losing and depressed and then we drew and I was happy. Buy my courses!
very accurate
Levy didn't lie when he said you either become a GM in your younger years or you never become a GM at all 🤣. I do appreciate how authentic these reviews are.
thanks for the spoilers before i watch the video man 😐

Feeling like levy has a good attitude to these tournaments now, feels like he is less frustrated with himself and really playing to win whilst having fun. Makes for very good recaps. Good shit!
Probably makes for better playing as well.
Yeah, I couldn't agree more, this is so great. Everyone is rooting for you!
Yes, much improved. And it's paying off.
Frank Marshall apparently once said that the hardest thing in chess is to win a won game, this recap certainly seems to prove that. Keep it up Levy, we all want you to succeed!
What till he hears about winning a lost game
And I just spoiled the result for me cause I can't avoid the comments, sad life
I think Emanuel Lasker said that.
I swear whenever i’m winning i get cocky and blunders.
Feel like what Hikaru said is accurate. When levy gets into a winning position he just becomes very passive instead of pushing the attack. And levy realizes it and just needs to overcome the fear of attacking while ahead.

@esp ele then you don't have to be included in the collective. Even one other person would fill the quota for "we."
An interesting pattern I'm beginning to observe, when I watch higher rated players and compare them with machines like Alpha Zero, is that in many cases it's not about being able to analyze deeply certain positions but rather about realizing that some positions or styles of play feel less familiar to what you're accustomed to as "normal or good play". This game really showcases how both Ba3 and moves f3, e4 just don't feel natural to your usual style of play. Therefore, you're more prone to not even take them into consideration. It's interesting because it depicts the psychological factor of what would have otherwise exclusively been a game of calculation. It's not the lack of calculative abilities that made you rule out these choices. It was more of a psychological bias that didn't allow you to conceive them in the first place.
😲
yeah we humans don't have massive calculative skills, or if we do try to use it we can't keep up for a long period of time without getting too tired before game ends (classic), or it'd take too long for shorter times. Therefore, we took our advantage into play, which is recognition of patterns, aka memory + intuition. It helps us play more efficiently (very important) so we don't burn out after each game, and with high enough effectiveness/success rate that, by trial-and-error and heritage, we decided such is the best way to play for humans. It surely will trip us from time to time but in the long run it allows our puny brain to play more games more successfully overall. That's my take on interpretation of your observation. Machines ofc don't have such limits and work completely different. However, as I read from some reddit/quora posts machines spend much more energy than human does in a calculating and playing a game so i guess we're still in a way possibly more efficient and effective. 🤔
I am just a beginner in chess but Levys videos about AlphaZero are so interesting. The big takeaway I have from them is that the computer loves space. I think humans are not always taught chess in this manner and it is hard to see it. We think instead in terms of things that make immediate sense to us like threats, checks, etc. How am I going to take pieces from my opponent and win material? Whereas AlphaZero seems to look instead at how do I win space against my opponent.
The move of the match is Ba3 and I think Levy does not see it because he is right. It doesn't make immediate logical sense. The bishop is not threatening anything. And it makes the bishop "bad." However that move also effectively neutralizes Levy's rook and pawn and buys a ton of time for black to get back into the game and slowly start to suffocate Levy. And many turns later Levy's only option is to lose material and sac his rook. However that is not immediately apparent when you first see the move. It is thinking about the game on a very different way and I think as humans it is very hard to see.
Precisely
Well, you are right, but that is, at a point, a good thing and it's about playing lots of games.
The reason we don't calculate everything is because in an opening, it would be a waste of resources for our brain to calculate a3 or calculate a silly move that gives a queen for a pawn. So actually, while we play chess, our brain plays a an energy- efficient calculation game. And what makes you a good player is, at a point, to teach your brain which moves aren't a waste of energy.
It is amazing.
So inspiring seeing you keep at these tournaments. Helping to keep me playing over the board too. Thanks for all the hard work Levy!

"I'm still very passive but maybe I'm slightly massive" - IM Levy Rozman 2022
Underrated comment
I’d love to see Levy just roll out and play a tournament on pure instinct and confidence. It seems like the common theme in a lot of these recaps is “I had the right idea, thought about something else, played it and was inaccurate.” It’d be so awesome to see Levy roll up like “What’s up fuckers, I’m the shit, boutta smash all you dogs” I think he’d do really well. Keep it up Levy we’re rooting for you!
Seems like he has some sort of mental block he needs to get through. He constantly beats good GM's in blitz when there's no pressure but struggles in these games.
He looks so genuinely happy for the queen sac he made me happy too
Hey levy, just wanted to say that i'd been stuck in the 700's ever since november and today i finally cross 800 with 9 consecutive wins and it was all because of you. I know that it's like a miniscule achievement, but it felt big for me, specially because i was stuck, so just wanted to say thanks (ps: the vienna is soooo good at this level man 😆)
Congrats! :)
i use the vienna a lot too at almost 900 elo, its very good at this level
I'm 1400 and still use the vienna hahaha, gotta love it. Congratulations man!
I love all this Vienna appreciation
Congrats man I'm almost 850 and I wanted to learn the vienna once I finish my exams thx for the reassurance
2 draws against higher rated opponents with possible winning chances is good stuff.
Well played Levy, best wishes for the next round.
Thanks for posting.
Yes, here here! He's doing very well!
How is this good
If ur winning and u end up drawing thats bad. Become one of this is an FM and he couldn't beat him what will happen when he faces gm.
@@ahmedtarig5277 you are never gonna have this elo. stop trash talking

@@ahmedtarig5277 cause you know ur not good enough
8:53 I have often wondered about your chess play. As a teacher and someone who knows so many different ways to play, I often wonder if sometimes, the reason you get discouraged or aggravated is because you try to do too much and, outsmart yourself instead, of just making the simple best play on the board. It seems like that was the situation.
Levi finally unlocked his true potential he realized that he is genius 😂
@@gitamyann__1979 girls I know Levi's content made u like this but please this is a crucial match spare your water elements for later
@Princess 🔞⤵️ close but we only work with queens here
“ I’m still very passive, but maybe slightly massive” would be a great rhyme
That was an amazing sentence
Levy you shouldn’t be so hard on yourself, you were completely winning 2 games in a row against very strong IMs, sure you didn’t win, but don’t you see the progress? Once you get to the level where you can convert these winning positions, which you will eventually because you’ve made obvious progress since your first tournaments, you’ll be winning so many more games
Eric Li is 2402. I wouldn't call that very strong IM but I would say Levy has gotten back to a place where he is playing at real IM strength and he's definitely still improving.
Winning won games is one of the hardest thing to do.
Man this guy is a total machine when it comes to this, very good marvelous player man, really good this guy.
dog he's an IM rated under 2350 😭

Okay Levy.
What Levy needs is an alt account where he just goes for the kill, full on all-in attack, even if he doesn't see the mate. That will teach him to do the same OTB and his full potential will be unleashed. We all can see the potential within him, he is kinda like early Goku, he doesn't go for the kill when he has the advantage.

amazing video bro. im glad u arent too frustrated because we all are learning alot from you and its very entertaining to hear recaps on your own thought processes
I’ve been really enjoying these episode because you explain your thought process over the board which i have been trying to mimic in my recent OTB tournaments.
Come on Levy! Your games shows us that chess is about hard work over the board and that GM norms aren't easy at all. I like a lot your sincerity.
I hope you're doing well the rest of the tournament!!

Same guy who forgot the word restaurant
You've said you don't care ik ik but since you said you hope it wasn't too embarrassing, Hikaru's stream was nice, he was saying he hopes you win etc. and didn't say anything new about you being a GM or whatever. Was a fun and respectful stream
Levy: Am I a Genius?
stockfish : nah
Appreciate the honesty, and the journey. Feels like in the heat of the moment, Levy should remember Occam's Razor- sometimes the simple answer is the best one, don't overcomplicate it.
- Anakin, you are on this tournament, but we do not grant you the rank of a grandmaster.
Is it just me or are these recaps so good that we end up learning something?
Levy you’re gonna be GM my man
Nice game Levy, keep it up buddy, feels like you're still improving which is great, I'm rooting for you!

Beautiful start to this tournament. Today’s big win is the perspective you have on how hard you were being on yourself. Im seeing the requisite psychological fortitude being developed very fast. You’re finna get this gm title for sure bro
134th day of translating Levy's titles into Neapolitan: "So nu genij?"
My favourite content of yours is tournament recaps. Hope this continues forever
Just got in trouble early with some aggressive queen moves that got you dug in, man. Don’t get discouraged and stay on that grind!

Great job levy, we can clearly see your mindset change from the last year, always giving your best and fighting til the end, keep it up❤️

I love how levy said he wasn’t gonna recap immediately after his games due to energy levels, then proceeds to do just that. Keep it up my good man!

It's amazing how I'm watching your recaps like I'm watching highlights of my favorite soccer team. I'm rooting for you Levy, you got this!
Well said Sander!
Glad to see Levy playing a tournament this month. Big fan of GothamChess
I really like these videos, we get these cool games with such great insight on your thought process, it really gives a look on how stronger players view a board and create plans of attacks in positions. Never in a million years would I find any plans in these games.
Your videos never fail to make my day!! Thanks for the amazing recaps, and good luck in your next games
Well said!
Let’s go, keep your head up, we’re all here for you!
I said this for game 1 but I just want to reiterate that these tournament recaps are top tier chess content. It's my favorite Gotham series. It's fascinating seeing the thought process and analysis of titled tournament play. Also, I really appreciate Levy's laid back "I'm just having fun" attitude. Indeed, sometime's your best just isn't good enough, and that's life. Doesn't mean we can't enjoy the process grow along the way.

great to see levy is grinding at tournaments again
16:17 "if i don't take it i would get about 5 more minutes for this recap, maybe an ad break" lmao xD
Nice warmup game for beating the GMs later. Feels like you are learning a lot, Levy. Keep at it and be a little more ferocious. Be hungry, Levy, and let's see you crush your opponent with precision and the most nasty chess violence in round 3.
Gotta remember some of the great moves you made today! Those were fire. Excited to hear about equally great ones next time
Dude, we are rooting for you, trust yourself and kick some butt
i love how all the games levy plays in a tournament have a plot twist
Take a sip whenever the opponent is not playing as Levy surmised.
Keep your head up :) you got this!!! You’re getting better and better
Hikaru said "Levy doesn't go for it" just when you are about to win, you get nervous.
these videos are so good it's actually crazy haha. Good job
i actually saw that e5 at 21:27 as the most natural move in that position. 2 open files for my passed pawn? "put the house on E-file!" also sac the c-knight for the b-pawn since it has nearly 0 moves anyways, can be forced from that spot with b4, is blocking my bishop, _and_ since black completely dominates the D file, this will open up the C-file for me. chisel the A bishop out of there with Bc3-b2, aRb1, Kf. Bam. As Prince John once told Sir Hiss, "Get out of That, if you can."
When levy told the engine to shut up i really LMAO
That setup is the Keres defense, or the accelerated Keres defense. The first time I encountered it when I was messing around with 1.c4 I got flattened, rather literally.
I was watching your game live while working amd checking my phone like every two minutes. Wild game and we believe in you levy play your natural game good luck for round 4.
Levy: Im still very passive but somehow maybe massive
Levy is always rapping 😂😂
"Ka-boom, ka-bam, and ker-splat."
--Chess Grandmaster Levy Rozman, c. early 21st Century
The wind was howling
"Especially when attacking kings." Ah yes his weaknesses, they are exposed
7:59 A4 is just an amazing move
Yeah that brings back memories
Yes it does
Levy could you add the episedo number or round in the tiltle after the catchy title you normaly put. It helps people find it after some time and im general . Much love ❤️
As hikaru mentioned in his steam surpringly castles by you was an inaccurate move. The better continuation would have been to go f3 and put the king there to make rhe king more active in the endgame.
YOU GOT THIS LEVY, WERE ALL SUPPORTING YOU
Levi thank you for helping me get to 1100 in just under a year I feel unstoppable I know im not but it’s nice when you’re winning at chess and I just want to thank you for everything
"Leave the gun, take the cannoli."
I remember having the same coach as your opponent back when he is 11-12, hard to imagine how fast players can improve these days (I was 1800 fide back then)
Happy to see an upload bro keep up the good work!
have you considered putting on the evaluation bar on the side for your games?
This would be interesting!
This is good, a pattern is emerging of your strengths and weaknesses against similarly skilled opponents. That means you actually have something concrete to study moving forward. I think that's something that's hard to spot if you normaly only play one or two people at your skill level not in a Blitz game
New to the channel. Been playing chess for 20 years and I suck. I'm probably rated at about 800 or something lol...if that. Getting into it again and Levy's vids are awesome. Very engaging and he's just a super cool dude. You deserve to be GM bro. Rooting for you!
Yeah Ba3 and b4 were quite difficult to see from the white side of the board.
But you are right that if you see a simplification like Ne4 that just leaves you a pawn up plus only black has weakness, then surely you should go for it without thinking twice, because a move like b3 instead, weakens your black squares and it just feels that it can give black counter chances (even if you don't see his Ba3 and b4 option).
Keep up the good work and confidence Levy!
Yessssiiiirrr y'know i gotta cop the bev and don't forget the checkmate.
the couple of frames at the start of every video are so funny to me
"i don't wanna think too much, i'm just gonna castle"
I've been there. It's a hard place to be.
You should do a series where you have to play from a losing position. You can title it "Creating Counter-play" or something. In the low elo games you can just hang a piece for free, and then later maybe a piece for a pawn, then maybe a rook for a knight or bishop. and in the high elo games maybe just get into a bad position but one that still has life in it. You could just make custom games and start the game from the losing position. Anyway I just think it would be pretty informative and it plainly sounds like good content.
(I've commented this 9 times and I'll continue to do so until either Levy responds, or I see the series. Or maybe I'll give up who knows?)
Oh I am so hyped, cracked the 4 digits today after I watched some guess the elo videos from you... Thank you for your tips
Congrats bro!
My d4 games are very different than my e5 games, but man, Levy’s d4/c4 games just get to the bizarrest positions.
Levi's ability to second guess himself.... speaks to my soul
i really like your approach to the game :)
How do you watch the tournament live?
ur doing amazing Levy. glad to hear you were having fun at the board, that’s all it’s about
This is the 2nd game he's gotten ahead and then drawn, and he's playing against higher elo opponents; seems like he's doing very well.
"Oops. Sucks to suck, stupid" - Levy Rozman, future GM.
"And then he played this..." kind of my favorite point in these recaps
Hahaha yes
Well you certainly called Schitco playing the Caro-Kann
You know Levy, I just wanna say that what you said at around 14:00 hit me pretty hard. I've always been very hard on myself to not disappoint the expectations of others and myself, but what you just said makes a lot of sense. Thank you for the wise words even if you say it super seriously!
Levi: "Am I a genius?"
Levi to Levi: "No."
I'd love to see Levy narrating the other side. After a bad opening with black then pulling it back to get a draw
