    well the lethal move can be used in rooks thats how i win over ai bots and my freinds and

    Who’s here after Andrew Tate plays it

    This is so complicated I'll just stick with being the king of checkers

    I am very interested in chess, I'm curious how my classmate play it so I decided to give it a try but he says 'you need a practice first, I can teach you sometimes when I'm free' so he teaches me, now I know how to move the pieces, thank you so much GothamChess! I learned a new one! 💗

    This may be a weird take from an (800) player. But the game of chess is way more difficult than it was say 50 years ago, 10 years ago, 5 years ago, hell even today its so much more difficult. These IM and GM's are very disconnected from what "low level play" is. I play people at 800, that have MASTERED openings, middle, and end game play.

    Even at 800, I have players playing such high level chess its crazy. You cant do basic openings and just win games. These High level players dont understand it anymore. The game has evolved so much and they dont understand.

    Hi what is the purpose of points if they don’t mean anything?

    Anyone here cuz chess just blew up in school

    Great information.. as a beginner this all sounds very logical and a great first-steps approach.

    Awesome video. I just started playing chess on my phone and I was struggling on beginners level, however after following the tip from this video I won the game in no time.

    one of my goals is to improve and become better at chess

    When you're trying to do skollers mate (im white for example) why can't black just play horse to 6f

    i’ve solved a rubiks cube, and i’ve been in the rank 1 at school for 6 years straight. still dont know how to do chess

    I’ve always thought chess was so hard until you just made it look so easy.

    I'm a grandmaster at handing out victories to the enemy

    "queen takes her own color" would be a wonderful way to consolidate those thirty seconds of dialogue that we had to sit through

    I just watched up to the "OPENINGS" cuz it was a way too much for me….as a complete beginner.

    Hello, I am a begginer.. I have been taught the wrong way it seams. I have not completed watching this video just yet. I have gotten to the point where you speak about, being able to have a 3rd piece on the board, once the pawn reaches the other side. How do you gain a 3rd hourse, for example; when you already have 2 on the board? Where does the 3rd piece come from? I was taught that you just bring back whatever piece you want, from the ones that have been taken off the board already…

    Im not exactly new but i just never had a good strategy in chess and i enjoyed this video while i already learn stuff.Thank you have a good day.

    Thank you. This made me better at beating ai

    Me the whole video : 😀😀😀😀😀❔❔❔❔❔

    Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Great video! I played a couple of games, not knowing what to do really. Your explanation of the game is simple enough to follow, yet complex enough to actually be able to do something in an actual game. I'll need to watch the rest of you vids now 🧐

    I am currently watching this video because i will be put up into a chess match against my friends during a sports festival thank you for the guide.

    Gotham what if you have no queen and no king Does it count as checkmate

    Gracias for the Spanish dub. I can hear you in English and understand almost everything; but hear you in my language is better, because I can learn better. Thank you Mister Gotham 😸

    I’m so glad you added a Spanish dub for this. I don’t speak Spanish, but I find it so much easier to internalize chess concepts when they’re explained to me in a sultry Latino voice ❤

    Good – but you know what, checkmate always happens at the end, never in the middle. Just like normal people break their lag in the last ski run of the day 😂

    Levy's spanish dub is absolutely rojo caliente
