    Why at 25:25 knight protection of the bishop can't be meet with a simple fork with pawn d4-d5?

    Bro this video has singlehandedly stopped my climb to 1000 😭 ever since it came out I’ve gone from 980 to 890 with every single loss being from a mate in this video

    For those wondering, he's moving apparemments hence why not uploading;)

    22:49 "Finds the nearest window, jumps out of it…" I know a word exactly describing what u mean
    It is called "Defenestration"…
    Yeah english is kinda weird

    Are you going to make grand prix recaps again? Big fan of the last ones

    Are you good with the English opening? I can only find a 10 min opening video on it. It would be awesome if you could do one explaining the lines more in depth and then play a few subs. I can't find anything good on YouTube with the English. I've actually gone up 150 points since I started playing it. I'm not good and every now and then I completely bomb it. I've gone from 750 to 900 though using English and Sicilian. Anyway thanks 😊

    Hi Gotham thank you for your informative videos. I had watched your video on Fried liver and Traxler, and applied it in my games and won many times.

    Hey yo! I was wondering why haven't you done the grand prix recaps? I truly enjoyed the one's you've done for the first one.

    I many times have caught people with fishing hook setup nice trap to know.

    Hey, uhh stupid question: at 21:17 if black takes the rook with the queen, isnt that ckeckmate?

    The harden and embiid comparison got me 🤣🤣

    The Ponziani is such a good opening,mostly because it's so trappy but even if they don't fall into your traps you still get very good positions

    Levy, I paid for all your courses as a "thank you". You have taught me so much about this game that both frustrates and fascinates me.

    And in this one video you taught me again. While I understood that under-promotion had value by providing a check, i struggled to find a scenario where promoting into a check had value.

    My sense is that under-promotion is rarely used because the check needs to work in combination with many pieces left on the board and usually I am promoting when the board is nearly empty…

    Thanks for great content

    The first move is not going to be a checkmate what if he/she instead of moving the horse moves the queen .

    Please Gotham
    Make a video commenting how the Ukraine Invasion is affecting the Chess world, and in particular the case against Karjakin. Is his career likely over? And is Russia forever banned from International sports, Chess included? Chess fans all over the world are curious about this, you have a lot of subscribers and you have influence and Power to make a difference to the (chess) world

    I'm sick of all this "you have to play chess." That's the last thing I want to do when I'm playing chess.

    I liked these and tried to use them but I soon realised that GOTHAMCHESS has way more subscribers than I thought 🙁

    You're missing, are you alright Goth? Don't tell me that you've been out as a vigilante and beating up criminals at night!

    29:30 , Gotham just nailed it , reaction was totally priceless, what a suspense

    remever when levy wasn't cringe as fuck

    my favourite move against the stafford gambit is 4.Nc3, the halloween gambit. You sacrifice a night for a pawn to restrict the movement of your oponent's knights

    great video but sad that you didn't include the stafford queen sacrifice trap after white plays 6.Bg5 which is arguably the most beautiful line the stafford has to offer

    Upload the video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Levi where is the Grand Prix recap ??? Tf u doin

    Respectfully request PGN file in description.

    Stafford has an even better checkmate in 8 moves, 6. Bg5, Nxe4 7. Bxd8, Bxf2+
    8. Ke2, Bg4#
    And even if they don't fall for the free queen, you win their queen for a knight and a bishop, 7. dxe4, Bxf2+ 8. Ke2, Bg4+ 9. Kxf2 Qxd1

    No joke I jumped from like 850 to 1000 in the 4 days since watching this video. Such a good video thank you gotham

    Day 180 of writing a pronunciation of 'Zwischenzug' in Russian for Levy:

    ЦВИШЭН ЦУГ (ts-vishen-ts-oog)

    Bonus: Zugzwang – ЦУГ ЦВАНГ (ts-oog ts-vang)

    After watching this yesterday, I have won 6 in a row, closing in on 500 elo. Thanks!

    Missing the "Seekadettenmatt" not sure how this is called in English.

    Like Stafford there is a similar, checkmate against Ruy Lopex opening, sacrificing the knight to give queen-rook, checkmate!

    the problem is my opponent is probably also watching this. Levy is too famous

    IM Levy Rozman The greatest chess streamer, chess coach of all time. I dont know how to express my emotions, but I love the *Gothamchess*. Levy is my idol of chess. He inspired me and others a lot. He always comes up with a pure content full of joy, full of lessons for us. Everyone should take some lessons from this great coach. When I started watching Gothamchess, I was a 1500 rated player in lichess. But after I learned from levy, I am now a 2100+ rated player. All credit goes to Levy. He teached us about every openings, every gambits. He gave us every tips he could. When I am upset, I watch the Guess the elo series, It makes me happy. So Keep up the hard work our chess coach. We are always here to support u.
    Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩

    levi every video: "chess is a difficult game but….

    Your timing with clapping doesn’t make sense

    First of all; amazing content. Secondly, I was wondering if you maybe could make a video about “advanced tactics”, like for example deflection or something. That might help us poor intermediate players to make that extra jump forward. Anyway, keep up the good work!

    A random question: can you do a Coca-Cola Gambit video?

    Budapest gambit, the 8 move smothered mate
