Who agrees that when levy hits 4 million sub he should do a vid where he stares for a full minute
12:17 wasn't pown to b4 a full trapped quee correct me if im wrong
Thank you Levy my rating is now 1200 from 1700 🥺
I lost 500 elo by watching this :/
Magnus after this video 3800elo
im 990 but ill try it.
I have already been using the ponziani for months lol
why dont you watch it to be 3200 GM instead of 2700 IM noob
16:02 and even without the blunder, just look at the space advantage.
Always wanted a gothamchess video on Ponziani opening…
Definitely worth watching
Vienna 😅
If I gained 500 elo I would actually almost be a Grandmaster. Somehow I doubt this'll work
For the longest time I confused Ponziani with Pandolfini. So, every time I saw the Ponziani on the board, I was thinking about Searching for Bobby Fischer (1993) and Josh Waitzkin.
2:18 “pawnziani” I chuckled
HOW ARE YOUR PUNS SO FUNNY GOD WHY AM I LAUGHING
yea but now 85 thousand people know
7:12 you can do en passnt
WALTER WHITE??
Could you potentially do a video on the birds opening?
Stop teaching trash to beginners
Bro it worked so good
Damn it levy you told them about my opening now I can’t dunk on them w it😭
Thanks to this video I finally reached 200 Elo! You're a lifechanger Levy!
Magnus Carlson watching this
Thanks to you levi I got to 1500 from 900 in less than a year last year…now i am around 1400 but its because I am too lazy to step it up and learn more😅
Can you do a video on the polish opening?
That would be really interesting!
As Magnus Carlsen, I can confirm I have just hit 3200
Hey Levy, how are you today?
magnus carlsen😑
5:33 NICE!
Finally I reached 3000 elo, this was way simplier then thought! Thank you so much levy, you have truly changed my life.
I’ve always played the panziani without knowing it
Please make a video on the dutch defense
Today's stare. very caring and endearing. 8.5/10
Imagine Magnus Carlsen watches this and gains 500 like it says in the title
Nice video. Eventhough I like playing the Ponziani myself, I sometimes find myself in trouble after 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. c3 Nf6 4. d4 Nxe4 5. d5 Bc5 6. dxc6 Bxf2+ 7. Ke2 Bb6. Can't castle and King is wide open for black to attack.
Instructions unclear, I lost 500 elo.
Problem is 80k people have seen this within 2 hrs
Levy did you say that some guys music in his page is fire?
your clickbaiting is getting out of hand, you dont need to do this levi ur better than this. Dont be like the other autistics ty
I just keep getting bishop to d6 and it all falls apart
does anyone have suggestions on how to learn opening and commit them to memory? should i just brute force trial and error learning my mistakes or is there a better way to learn them than losing a bunch of elo trying to do so
i just need to watch this a lot of times to get 3500 elo :3
I found an opening for black, and then it give white 5 times in a row, i quit for a long time. Look at this video, and now i get white 1/8th times
Imagine if Magnus watched this, unstoppable
Huh. Interesting and fortuitous. I played this against a co-worker over the board a few days ago and thought I was being slow with 3.c3 and 4.d4 and a coward for avoiding a Spanish or Italian. I'm glad to know it's an actual opening. Thanks Levy.
I watch these so I can learn how to counter the thing everyone suddenly starts playing
Magnus watches this vid elo increases to 3380
3:21 this can be prevented by the knight to c6
