    I was Gotham sub, Levy just made absolutely amazing content out of something I didn't think was that good. Just a few notes:
    3:51 - I played d5 because I really wanted to give that smothered mate, so me kick rook
    5:41 - Yes that was hilarious, I actually did not take the pawn on purpose because I wanted to fully focus on checkmate in the fewest moves and I missed that the promotion is check
    6:07 - LMAO
    9:02 - I know it's bad but I like making that sacrifice because I like the open king, and it catches them off-guard. Breaks the boring board too.
    11:41 - It was already obvious he was cheating but here I was like OKAY DUDE for sure, if you want to play perfect Vienna, come get me, I know it all..
    15:18 - ..up until this point. Everything was from my knowledge of the studies from the amazing Gotham Vienna course at chessly. So I kinda panicked at that point.

      I think that it would work better with an aggressive or tactical strong player (like Rosen or Cramling's dad), because when Stockfish plays a lost position, it doesn't consider the fact that the opponent is lower rated. It will give up and let the lower rated opponent convert the advantage (if they can). A tactical grandmaster, instead, will try every possible trick in order to make the opponent make a mistake, thus having a much more interesting game.

    My thoughts on the sounds:
    When there are a lot of moves, especially in openings when you kind of rush through, it makes it difficult to focus on what you're saying. The rest of the time it's fine. Conclusion is, personally if you're gonna use sounds, maybe only turn them on after the opening? Is that a hassle? Idk. Great video as always!

    So basically the reason that g4 is a good move in that scenario for the second game is because it forces any attack and pressure off that kings side in initial development allowing for a less aggressive push in most games. It basically keeps black off kings side for a while and gives you the chance to get more centered development by not having to worry about kings side attacks in the early game.

    To be fair, if I was in the position, I would have done the bishop knight trap in game 2, but and I probably wouldn't have taken the bishop immedicably. Its a good tactic I've used when lossing a game before. Bishop pair for me. Loss at the end.

    As someone viewing from outside of the chess community it seems to me it’s gotten to a point where the people who can most effectively cheat are already good chess players. It also seems like when playing online chess the only ways to recognize are not really enough unless theyre doing it blatantly/poorly or have limited knowledge of chess and it shows. Im sure theres endless amounts of accusations just like the recent ones by magnus that cant be proven. Gives a lot of room for cheaters and also for chessmasters to write off a loss as someone cheating.

      @MD-en3zm Před rokem

      The player who knows absolutely nothing about chess and just goes in cheating is always super easy to figure out. They’ll have a win rate near perfect, win rate won’t vary vs opponent, moves all same length. no obvious opening book because the engine can just calc as it goes. and you just know when the opponent is seemingly playing randomly and you suddenly get crushed with some weird ass tactic you couldn’t have imagined, and then the accuracy score is like 99.99 or something.
      Some players I suspect of cheating for a few moves here or there but you can’t always tell. These players are generally decent but ask stockfish for help when they get into a confusing situation. Those aren’t the players who take the standard 8s or so for a ridiculously obvious move.

    As someone who plays like three games a year, a very casual beginner, watching the cheater's moves when they had the engine turned off was hilarious. Like, even someone as inexperienced as me, someone who couldn't name a single opening (except now the Vienna, I guess), could tell that the player was utterly incompetent, never looking more than about half a move ahead if that.
    If even I can tell it's bad play, it must be VERY bad.

    I’ve been playing the bots a lot and when you pin the knight (e.g. bishop g4 pinning knight to the queen), stockfish will always kick the bishop with the pawn and if you retreat the bishop it will play g4 every time. Humans rarely play that, but the bots always do.

    As a level 750 player, I am sure I have done those very moves you say are not common to make. Granted the follow ups arent quite there, if they were, I would be a level 1300 player, but still, sometimes the brilliance shines through. I like to play the confuse the crap out of the other party and sacrifice half the board for a move that might or might not work. Hence my win rate is total garbage, but it is just such a beautiful thing when it all artfully works out.

I know might not be the best strategy to improve but I know several people that practice playing against stockfish and seeing the best moves, maybe thats why a lot of low rated player may look like cheaters.
