    At the end of the vid , did he say a king can take out a king ? Didn’t think that was possible

    Yo!
    I'm a normal 12 year old, 6th grader Student from the Philippines.
    Ever since I was 7, I gained an interest between Chess. Played it a lot with my brother and I learned a ton from him. When I turned 8, I stopped playing because our board went poof and We didn't want to ask our parents but, our knowledge on chess was still engraved in our minds. Now here I am, having INTRAMS and chess as my sport so that I can be extra extra motivated To Play chess and train myself again with a new chess board but, less opponents. I learned a lot from the this video and I'm really greatful for it.

    i thought i needed to move my queen at e11 to checkmate the king

    I didn't know Daniel Radcliffe was so good at chess

    im here cuz someone was doing chess wrong irl he wins 3 rounds since he is doing horse or knight and tower wrong

    What is the purpose of points when the game can only end in checkmate? I’m new so I don’t know

    Watching Levy explain chess like this is hilarious

    Chess is as easy as football

    For beginners: the best opening you'll need to learn is known as the bongcloud opening, it's a forced win, it's done by moving the pawn in front of the king two squares, then move the king forward one square

    Today i enter the one of my lecture at uni and saw one off my mates playing it on the phone and i thought “well is never too late” been “playing” like a total beginner for the last 5 hours, must fun i ever had playing anything

    Inflation is producing a slew of problems throughout the world, including food shortages, diesel and heating fuel shortages, and housing prices and financial market crash. This global collapse might end up being a part of us for a very long time. With inflation currently at about 9%, my primary concern is how to maximize my savings/ retirement fund of about $300k which has been sitting duck since forever with zero to no gains.

    I am taking up chess as my new hobby and i have no clue about the rules, this video explains thr rules but i still don't get it..i Guess chess isn't for everyone then….

    A pawn keeps moving forward, until all its enemies are destroyed.

    This dude is literally the best chess youtuber on youtube. I have to say that.

    Every One new here because of Andrew Tate XD

    I would just like to thank gotham chess for the climb in blitz that I had. I gained 500 rating points and im now playing rapid and studying the game. Thanks for introducing me to this beautiful game.

    super new to chess. only 2 weeks. in. been studying puzzled butt not openings. is this okay?

    Thanks for the video. I am 54 years old and have never played chess. Like many people, however, I have developed an interest in the game because of – yes – "The Queen's Gambit" (chess snobs are probably tired of hearing that, but oh well). I also bought a nice wooden chess set on Amazon and got "Chess for Dummies" – which is terrific – on my kindle. I look forward to returning to this and your other videos as I teach myself this wonderful game. Thanks again.😀

    Man I just played one of best games ever
    I started with a huge plunder I thought I was gonna lose , I pave the way for the queen to take my rook the classic plunder luckily tho I had my pawns in a V formation in the right and in the start of the V it was protected by my queen

    I trapped his queen the whole game after I killed all his pieces except his queen and a Knight he wanted to use to break the V formation.

    He wanted to take the foundation of V formation in which in opposite there was his king, ik before hand what he wanted to do he killed my V foundation, and with my queen I killed the Knight ( checked his king) and forced a trade ( either he kill my queen and lose his queen or he move his king away and lose his queen anyway) after I took his queen he resigned XD

    First time I trapped a queen for a whole game and it feels good we were Elo 800

    New York actually exists in the DC universe. Gotham is actually located in new Jersey

    After watching this video, I am proud to say that I can beat myself in chess

    its really easy to remember where the queen stands in german, because its called "Dame", so Dame for d

    en passant is like some anime shit, you know like when samurai jump behind the enemy and cut him in half after hidind own blade

    what? new york city is metropolis. chicago is gotham

    Thank you so much this is super helpfull, i alwaysjust played the game no strategies, but now you have thought me to play thankyou so much

    How did you know? I lost to the scholars mate in my 4th game online

    Top G aka Andrew Tate bring me here 🔝🥇

    I can send my matches and they will be helpful for a guide on how to blunder 69 times in a match.

    11:35 I would argue that checkmate never happens at the beginning or middle of the game, it only happens at the end of the game (by definition) 😄

    The Queens like to sit on the kings "D" file… got it! 😜

    I’m so bad at chess, I can’t even win at 400 Elo 🙁

    ‘or the horsies, however you want to call them.’ he knows me
