  1. "don't wanna trade queens" is so accuraaaaaaaaate in beginners 🤣🤣 while I also do it as a beginner

  2. im so bad i need help none of the videos i watch help idk why i just suck like i've tried every video i've tried calculating and i still get beat so brutally at only 400 elo

  3. Beginner, here. I find your videos enjoyable to watch and helpful. You always explain things so clearly.

  4. After watching this video, I thought I was ready to head into a game.

    First 10 moves and I blunder my queen

  5. I love gotham chess , I was about to reach 1000 elo , I was lucky enough to find this video and learn chess calculation and now I am on 900 … Thank you 😊

  6. 8:04 “at 670 there is no such thing as a Sicilian defense” broke my little 200 Sicilian heart 🥲

  7. Finally, I won't lose my queen in one move

  8. "And for our under 1000 players, not blundering a piece in one move"
    I feel personally attacked

  9. bro by watching your videos i increased my rapid rating from 300 to 1400 currently, Thanks for all your hardwork

  10. A few weeks ago I went to the Norway to explore the world of chess. Out of the three times Magnus Carlsen and I played chess, I beat him one time, drew the next game, and lost the last one. Honestly, that's not bad for someone who started a month ago.

  11. The more you know about chess, the more you are aware how amazing top chessplayer are.

  12. im 700. correct me if im wrong:

    9:36 whites turn, he moves his rook. why not move the bishop forking the pawn and the knight?

  13. " At 670, There's no such thing as Sicilian defense, Its just an opening mistake!! "

  14. this guy just changes titles of videos and analyzes games not tips here

  15. Love your channel thanks a lot 💪👌🤜🤛🙏

  16. I'm here because technically i taught my girl to play chess and now she plays way better than me.

  17. 16:17 queen h8 brilliant sacrifice and game is over after rook to h8 then bishop to f6

  18. I don't understand at 14:42 how is it checkmate? There's still a move for the black king

  19. I SUBSCIRBE AND LIKED AND CLICKED THE NOTIFICATION BELL SO PLEASE FIGHT ME PLEASE LEVY?

  20. In the first game when the bishop took the horse, what would we do if he took the queen first?

  21. As a 450 Elo player I can say this helps me thinking but there is time and I usually stay 20 seconds for a mediocre move

  22. levy, i know this is an old video but today is my birthday xd

    can you say happy birthday?

  23. Ahh so this is how you preform the “fuck you” opening variation #5786

  24. 14:13 ? didn't just a white king can simply eat the bishop?

  25. Beginner here…
    Please be patient & kind.
    Thanks.

    At 20:48
    Why can’t Black just CAPTURE the Queen on F8 (after Queen gives the check)
    Cab’t you get out of a check by Capturing the piece checking you ?

  26. Bro you are unbelieveble I wish you a lot of succes in life

  27. If I take that knight….

    It dies…. And my piece goes there….

    :O

  28. i want to be in armenia and i want him and only him to be my teacher pleaseeeeeeeeee

  29. It hurts especially when you blunder a queen from a superior position
