  • Levy is crushing the chess game on CZcams (and Twitch!). Check him out: / gothamchess
    Levy learned so much from the last lesson he asked me to come back and teach him some opening lines that can generate creative and exciting attacks. We also play some Hand & Brain and swap stories from our youths playing chess tournaments in high school gymnasiums and hotel conference rooms. Check it out!

    I have little to no knowledge about chess. As a matter of fact, I have no idea what that Netflix series is about (besides being about chess duh). Yet I enjoy these chess videos. I think they have the same appeal as the tactical or strategic fights we see in fiction all the time. Fast, narrated chess matches have a weird appeal and suspense. Your monstrous miss-clicks only add to the enjoyment: the suspense never ends, because egg can always misclick. And when he does, will he be able to stand and defeat his opponent nonetheless?

    I think the appeal of watching you play chess is your personality as well as watching you grow. We’ve watched you grow in so many games and chess is one with so much room for growth. You being “average” at chess let’s us watch and be able to understand, but also as you learn we are too. I’ve NEVER studied anything chess related, but watching you play I find myself really invested and actually sometimes being able to identify good moves. Then either you do it and I feel smart, or you don’t and I go check the analysis where we find out we were both idiots because your move was a mistake, but mine would have been a blunder.
