The irony
What flag is that is that Uganda?
Btw wear the pin of shame hope it suites you well ; )
Wait this person is a troll, they’re subscribed to GothamChess
Just two words for you :
*N O Y O U*
Can we take a moment to appreciate the consistency of all the commenters appreciating Levy for his consistency.
You bamboozled me.
This is an inconsistency.
Beat me to it
It's consistency and appreciation all the way down.
😂😂. This needs to be pinned .
Levy: don’t just snap take
Also levy: don’t even think take the bishop
That is so true
ya Levy is a good teacher but he sometimes contradicts himself like that, so I’ve noticed. His “blanket rules” aren’t extremely refined
Only ims can lol
He doesnt need to see the move happen to know the outcome. Him snap taking is from experience but he is saying be careful when your playing because he's teaching new or average players.
@@kylemenos True. Some captures are instinctive because of experience and/or pattern recognition. But newer players don't have that yet so they have to assess the board first.
Gotham: "Why is this so hard?!"
me: *laughs in 400 ELO*
Yep

Hey Levy, I’m 45 and just starting to study chess a bit. Your videos are a blast and I watch them in my studio in front of my chess board when I’m not doing my actual job which is sound for video games. Keep up the awesome work. Many thanks from Vancouver 🙏
How's your rating in playing?
Sound for video games sounds really interesting. Are you making sound effects for games? Wonder how that works.
YOURE the reason I can’t hear footsteps in Apex legends
@@kaine1327 omg rotfl -- you can't blame me for that. I may have had something to do with Gears 4 footsteps though... :D
Thats good to hear man its never to late to start. What rating are u at rn?
To summarize: Always say you’re gonna castle long, and then don’t, castle short
It's more about the mindset of believing you're going to castle long. It's one of those mental tricks
Ethan K are you Ethan kim
@@eyesack2215 fearless sub
your opponent can’t predict your move if you have no idea what you’re doing
Cause you are short
this feels so intimate without twitch chat... it’s just me and levy 😳 alone 🙈
dafuq???
the *com* e gambit
Maybe he can show me how fast he can mate with his white pieces.

67 minutes in, love the content Levy. Huge fan, you've taught me so much - thank you!
Hey Levy, wanted to let you know I stuck around for the whole video and glad I did! This video really brought out the beauty in chess for me. Chess has been my quarantine activity and this does a good job showing what sacrifices are good and why which is where I waste ton of time over the board. Keep up the good work!
How to improve on 900:
Just find a 4 move strat, with a piece sac.
Its dat simple.
That was harsh on the 900 player, I agree.
@It'sBaileyToYou Good game btw
@It'sBaileyToYou Yeah you played really well for a 850. Other than that tactic you missed, you easily played like a 1500-1600 player.
Dat?
1:07:05 yo i stuck around till the 67th minute
u saw my game thx!
same
^^
👍
Same
I hope gotham enjoys his time off when he gets it. He deserves thank you for getting me from 900 to 1550 in the past year

"you don't need two Queens, one Queen is all you need"
- IM Levy Rozman, the family man
*67th min gang, my boi.*
Read this at the 66th minute.
Update, lol I get it now 🤣
Me: 69th min gang
Levy is the hardest working youtube content creator. You're success is well deserved. Congrats
Fo sho
“And then Drunkenly stumbles into C2” 😂💀 this is why I love your videos. Hilarious everytime
"You don't need two queens"
But it feels good...
in one of my games i got 5 queens lmao
@@cole_bh0373 yeah, Now you can make a harem with it 😂😂
@@cole_bh0373 Yes, and waste your time calculating stalemates
It does decrease the likelihood that I’ll stalemate my opponent
What if the first queen is busy?
I will enjoy my Sunday thanks Gotham
It’s so nice how yesterday the title was “enjoy your Sunday” and now its just what it usually is
Just wanted to quickly say how much I appreciate all the content you’re putting out atm - I’ve got 2 weeks off from work and loving being able to catch up on all your videos! Thanks so much! :)
I made it 67 minutes into the video Levy. I wasn't even aware of it until you've mentioned it, it's really nice to watch you play chess.
It's astonishing how much calmer Levy is when he's not streaming. A chill guy, very instructional, very pleasant to listen to. Not saying the "streamer" Levy is any better or worse, just the viewer experience is so...different. It's almost like Levy has 2 personalities, and the only difference between them is how much coffee he drank throughout the day lol. Again - this is absolutely not meant to be a negative comment in the slightest, just thought i would share my experience...
P.S. - Still waiting for that Nimzo-Indian vid :)
Agreed, i think 'Streamer' Levy does that, cuz chat annoys him, just a lil. And maybe even to keep chat in line. He's an awesome dude tho.
totally agreed
any player streaming is either angrier or playing with less gaming IQ
I really love how he doesn’t have to deal with any annoying chat trolls and he doesn’t go off topic, just pure information. One thing I did like about the live chat tho is when they ask good questions or question levy, prompting him for further explanations.
When will the series “Lose at chess” start? I’m looking to down my game.
First lesson is blunder the queen as quickly as possible.
@@Drogon7102 Wdym? The Botez gambit is one of the most powerful strategies in chess.
This comment aged well
Thank you for all the content Levy! 🙏🏼
I’ve watched most of your videos & love them all!
The first thing I did was look at what sweat shirt levy is wearing today only to find its an aeroplane themed pajama😂
Am kinda digging it
wing gambit themed pajama
I've seen levy wearing a hoodie so many times that him not wearing one looks weird to me
Thanks so much! Love this. Watched it all- can see myself in every game
Hey Levy......Just got you’re openings course, and love the amazing and practical content! Great to see the surge of subscribers, you deserve it!!!
Day 81: Of requesting Levy to cover opposite coloured bishop endgames.
Especially when you have a slight material advantage of being up by two or three pawns against your opponent and you both have opposite coloured bishops as well.
I was also requesting "" attack the castled king "" but he's not watching😭 then I stopped
@@shriram9933 did you watch his videos properly? Most of the games that he shows are games where the kings castle, its super rare to see one where one of the players dont castle. Just pay attention when he talks about either player idea to attack.
I think it's just a draw with correct play since the bishops can't attach eachother , main point to keep in mind is that your bishop should win the opponent's pawns or coverr the promotion square and keep your pieces on the opposite color of the opponent's bishop , i think
But levy should absolutely bring endgames series back
@Gabrieledude, I know that's a beginner type of concept but you know there are so many ways of doing that so if there can be a video which collects them all it would be good right 👍.
@@Crustee0 dude, I know that's a beginner type of concept but you know there are so many ways of doing that so if there can be a video which collects them all it would be good right 👍.
And watching games and learning concepts are different.
A proper video for it would be better😎
Perfect timing. I'm literally finding something to do.
Same here, I’m procrastinating revision for a physics exam tomorrow
Lol same
im eating mcdonalds
I have an egzam tomorrow and if i dont study my mom is gonna best me up lmao
@@vejasg6272 are u drunk?
I love these Levy, they're so informative. Thank you!
Great video Levy! Really cool to see different strategies that can play out. Arrows are super helpful!
Thanks Levy, enjoy your Sunday too.
1:14:48- somewhere Eric Rosen jumped out of his chair both in delight and horror
why
This is fantastic! Thank you for doing this. A ton of stuff to learn here.
Stayed till the end as always! Thanks Levy, you're amazing!
I'm South East Asian, and Sunday is already over. Tomorrow is monday, and I'm having my graduation tests. Sigh... But enjoy your Sunday!
Gl my guy. You gonna kill it.
isn't it 7pm here
edit: i though you meant it was already monday very sorry good luck for your exams
F
@@sparklecharmer ... It is...
Exams start tommorow for me wish me luck
All the kids tomorrow are gonna be hilarious with their: "haha but it's not sunday Levyyyy" comments
After today it'll be "Did You Enjoy Your Sunday?" for a week.
Plot twist, he has a script that will update the day of the week forever
@@zBrain0 yeah lol
@@zBrain0 That would be cool.
Except I am in Australia
I’ve learned so much in just watching a handful of videos versus reading a book or doing puzzles. Awesome stuff!
Great video Levy 👍 Loving the Winning at Chess series, definitely learning a lot from your content. Thanks 😎
67 minutes of quality content followed by a great 10 minute ending... 67 ... you know if you know...
This guy is insane. The sheer amount of videos he posts is off the roof. Thanks, Levy
Thank you for all the great content, lately especially for the chess history, great stuff. Would you be interested in making a video about chess history from a broader perspective, for example how the prevalent playing styles changed in different eras, important theoretical discoveries etc.? Id love to know more about these topics and you are such a great teacher and presenter. Thanks!
67 minutes in convo. Hey man! Love watching your chess. Truly brilliant. Been watching for a while! Thank you for your help we all appreciate it! Your the goat!
For the 10th episode, you should do a streamer special where you go up the rating ladder against different chess streamers or streamers who can at least play chess. Pokimane, QTCinderalla, Ludwig, Northernlion etc Maybe put money on the line for extra fun?
this is brilliant
Yes! He could play Hutch too!
Levy posted this at 7am. What a beast
it was a scheduled upload
These videos strike a great balance between entertaining and instructional. It’s very hard to do both well but I think you nailed it
I adore this series, I learn so much from this in a very practical sense. Thank you sincerely
Video idea: How to spot a good sacrifice?
Also, keep it up Levy! You're the best!
watch his video on the rule of +2
If you win the game its a good sacrifice
I still think you make chess more entertaining than watching hockey, and I'm canadian so it says a lot....
Made it to the hour point you were talking about leaving a comment at. Love these videos. They’re especially helpful! I mean all of your stuff has been one of the main reasons I’ve been so motivated to improve at chess but... the thought process can seem super intimidating at times so please keep making these!!
Stayed until the end. These are my favorite episodes. Keep em coming. Much appreciated!
For those wondering, the tactic at 24:57 was after ...Bg4 you do Bxf7+ Kxf7 Ne5+ Kg8 Nxg4, so now material is equal and you have a lead in development, so you have the benefits of the gambit without the drawback. Black also doesn't have the right to castle so it's harder to connect the rooks. Engine says it's +2 for white :D
thanks for explaining!
Bg4*
Sorry, it is Bg4, just corrected it
@@zar6 np I was confused for a sec but then realized it's a mistake and corrected so others don't get confused too👍
I love this series because it is helping me to make plans in chess , so levy please continue this series
I watch all your vids all the way through; they're just so interesting and helpful :)
This is a really great series. Thank you for taking the time to teach us. I find great pleasure in chess.
See I love Eric Rosen, he’s a little bit more calmer and i think more put together. But Levy just has such a lively personality. He’s not afraid to be himself and we as viewers love it. AND ON TOP OF THAT HE BE POSTING TWICE A DAY AND I LOVE IT
Eric is Grandmaster of calmness while Levy is Grandmaster of making content
I like Eric but he's a bit too calm for my liking. After watching him for 30 minutes I fall asleep.
@@Axiomatic75 yeah too calm and too cute 😂
no need to compare them, they are both equally great youtubers in their own way
Your the reason I enjoy my sundays.
I had nothing to do today until levy posted :)
Levy I really enjoy your content as an italian chess fan
I don’t skip any of your videos of this series, they’re just entertaining to watch and very helpful
Thanks for the wholesome content Gotham! You’ve helped my chess rating grow over the past couple months from ~650 to 920! Still more room to grow obviously but anything helps!
Day 37 of translating the title in Italian: "godetevi la vostra domenica!". (ye i know, he will probably change the title soon :P)
Sei una leggenda
Veramente sono passati 37 giorni? Sei bravissimo
Più che giorni, sono 37 video solo che é brutto scrivere video numero 37 ahahah però considerando che ha fatto una pausa per un pó di giorni, ma a volte pubblica 2 video in un giorno, probabilmente si, sono circa 37 giorni 👌
Grande
grandeee
Can we appreciate this man's consistency
So original.
So original.
If you want to.
So if I want to say I like his content and want to support him I am begging for likes
Not everything is about likes
Made it to the end, a comment on my time management. Thanks for the great content, it’s super helpful as a development tool
Leaving a comment to say I just listened to this start to finish and really appreciate the depth that you go into. It's approachable and instructive for a 1200 player like myself.
ALSO since I started watching your videos I've been analyzing and calculating my games with your voice in my head so make of that what you will.
Levy cares about our morning :))
Our evening :)
I’ve been playing blitz for a while and recently hit 600 elo points. I know it’s not much, but it’s amazing to me :)
Dude I’m in the same spot. My username is Nurav9000.
the way you talked through that first game was so awesome. helped me enjoy my sunday.
I’ve been a fan of your chess for a while, but this vid made me a fan of you as a human. You just seem like a good dude. Kind. Keep up the great work!
LEVY'S BACK AT IT AGAIN
Levy, don't be afraid to show us fancy moves, that's what I love to see.
Been watching this whole video, loving all the instructional value. I went and played a game at 92 accuracy right after watching this.
Made it till the end! Learned a lot, thx for the always supreme content!
Gotham, you're worth more than a Queen!
He's more than a King!
Thanks, trying to work up the courage to play more. I won lots of ELO yesterday, but I have a feeling that I will lose it all if I play without practising harder
Just finished watching the whole series after about 2 or 3 weeks. Great series, learned a lot, would definitely watch new installments. Also as a suggestion, I don't know if you'd want to as I know you like to sell your openings manuals but I would love to see longer videos on openings and more details into possible lines. Great channel as always.
Great games!! Made it the whole way. Love the content man, thanks for posting!!
Just because of his influence I left the football match and watching chess.
Nice job man ❤️.
Love your your win at Chess episodes Levy. I’ve watched them all multiple times. Your passion for the game and sharing what you know combined with your talent for teaching and highly entertaining commentary sets you apart from every chess streamer out there. I understand your hesitation in going through what it will take to become a GM. It will not enhance your online presence which is substantial. That said, in your choose field it does seem to be the logical next step. How can you incorporate your work with your online business with preparing for the classical chess tournament play need to gain GM status?
I guess he answered your questions by now
This series gets better with each episode. These are my favorite chess videos to watch on YT. Great quality videos. Keep it up
great video, thoroughly enjoyed the whole thing, thanks Levy!
“I just don’t believe my opponent”. Levy channeling his inner Hikaru
1 hour of Levy, am I dreaming?
Thanks for new lines & attack, I look for the openings to study from your videos
Great and instructive material. I had pleasure to watch it all. Keep going with this series pls.
Levy after developing the knight in front of the c pawn: I became the very thing I swore to destroy
Yes I will enjoy my Sunday. Hope you do too
Only got into the chess scene last month, and you're by far my favorite content creator. Both for entertainment purposes, but also educational ones given your more recent videos. Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
A fan who made it to the sixtieth minute in the video
really enjoying your content, its just smth i can have on my 2nd screen and i can learn alot in the meanwhile, really appreciate your content, thank you very much
Last time I was this early the fan was still on fair play
*Dewa kepas* 🌚
This is the way your win at chess videos should be filmed. Huge improvement.
I agree, his streams make the actual content a little harder to grasp because of the twitch chat
Appreciate the teaching by analysing the thought process. Good one!
I always enjoy your longer videos. They are very informative. Your "How to win at chess" series is my favorite!
Happy holi, Levy, love from India 😀🇮🇳🇮🇳
