    Maaaan this is my opening now they gonna know how to defend. Why Levy!?!?

    Levi u make clickbait vids about getting 500 elo, 1000, etc. But u still ain't a fking GM so shut up

    magnus should watch thes thin he would be stroger

    we are gonna see a lot of less elo players on chess sites playing the ponziani[dont mind the spelling]

    Could you add the Opening/general theme of the video in brackets? searching for a specific video is near impossible with these titles.

    Today's stare was immaculate, a symbol of resistance, a pathway to greatness. 6/9

    7:10 but you have to take en passant and the center os not as strong

    Hikaru watching this be like : interesting….

    At first I was disappointed this was just another opening trap video, but this looks amazing. I hate getting into the Italian as white so Ponziani seems perfect for me.

    its normal to win 1200 elo bots but still stuck in 500 elo? genuine question

    If I repeat this 20 times, will I surpass ChatGPT?

    Pov: You practiced and practiced but start with black for 3 games in a row🙂💔

    I Literaraly played 1300 bullet games in one month and then when i played rapid i have to a 20 win strek so play bullet

    As someone who is 900 right now I will watch this video 5 times and be world champion

    I learnt this opening on my own. I experiment with different openings with my brother and cousins. Many of the times I lose, but I crushed him with Ponziani with an accuracy of 79.

    Homeboy here really trying to sell us a Ponziani scheme… (yes, that is humor and intentional, if you, whom I deem an incredibly smart commenter, now wanna comment "omg it's called Ponzi scheme you moron")

    i feel like he already showed the ponzi idk where idk when but wtf i have seen this

    macloed attack levi
    Brutal (i messed up this one)

    Ponziani is my favourite opening because of the center control

    I was at 1200, then I started watching you, and now I am 900

    I CAN FINALLY DOUBLE MY ELO DABABY LETS GOOOO

    As a experienced ponziani player, you really did show everything….
    But still you left a tactic (my favourite) in the mainline variation where you can win a queen 👑 … So I felt a little bit sad😐

    Hey Gotham, please make a video about the hippo opening

    As a 2000+, I'm now suddenly a gm after watching this video. Thanks Levy

    i accidantly figuer out this opening on my own, to bad am 650 lol

    I miss these types of videos. I love all your content, but I think you should do more of these educational types of videos. They really help❤

    lemme watch this 50 times so that i am better than Stockfish and alphazero combined thank you levvy
