    Only bad thing about this vid is that now people are gonna know what to do against it

    Ponziani helped me rise from 900 to 1300 already thx to Mr. Oh no my queen

    Hey Gotham, I don't know how often you check the comments, but I wanted to thank you. This previous year, I had a pretty severe head injury and couldn't walk (TBI), let alone play chess. I'm rated roughly 1300 and just took 3rd place in my state tournament, thanks to your videos getting me back to the board. As this is my senior year of high school, it means a lot. Thank you

    Didn't say get rid of the London.. so I'm gonna stick to it.

    congratulations levy

    win a chess game without moving any pouns

    Please keep doing more educational content like openings theory and strategies aswell as entertaining content I’ve missed the more educational stuff and I know it’s less profitable but its great for the newer players who want to learn more also congrats on winning chess streamer of the year

    I'll say let people play their way. Getting out of "your theory" for a low rated (yea 1600 low rated, I am 1700 and I know nothing about chess: ONLY 3 openings, some twists, but are 3 openings) it's still EXTREMELY complicate; EXPECCIALY in blitz. If B6 was his move, show why B6 it's not optimal. And I know, B6/G6 aren't blunders… But still. Like the video; #GETOUTOFHERE

    1:24 The move c3 IS TO SACRIFICE the natural developing square of the knight…

    Me play theoretical opening: get crushed and lose

    Me play goofy opening: suddenly opponents playing like 400 elo lower than me

    thank you for your effort
    what do you mean by '' if you want to play with them on any chess website''?

    As someone that only plays bots because they’re too afraid to get bullied online, thank you.

    levy at beginner level the opponent don't play logical moves so no opening usually works

    you should totally play 5d chess with time travel

    Hey there levy could you make a video discussing about the grunfeld defense i am really interested in seeing how it works

    Hi Gotham I was wondering what you think the best variation not the closed and open Sicilian defence

    14:17 Hey Gotham, just a heads up — you might get you pipi bricked with words like those.

    What is Henry Winkler's favorite chess opening?

    The Pawnzarelli.

    the first time i used the ponziani the opponent resigned

    Today i have a chess tournament and this video helps me

    How you prevent your pawn being taken by their knight on e4

    I am a beginner trying to improve my game in chess. My openings have been weak because I’ve had a hard time deciding which opening to explore, and you just gave me one. Thank you!

    I’m sure there’ll be a video about it, but congrats on winning Chess Streamer of the Year!!! Soo deserved.

    Actually the best chess opening for beginners as white is 1.d4

    Well Mr Levy I've seen the opening tier list for begginers you've made with Mr Hikaru and you just said it was "decent" and placed it in the "really bro" tier. Why are you changing your mind now?

    “Im just gonna develop my queen.”
    Moves knight

    Remember when the title was about gaining 500 elo?

    Why is pawn to H3 done at 3:00? It has nothing to do with the fork he says it's required for.

    Is it just a random developing move to wait for him to hit the e-pawn with his knight or does it have a specific purpose?

    I got a game for you to critique if you want. Move list as follows( excuse me if this is incorrect N is for the knight)

    E4. E5
    Nf3 f6
    Nc3 h5
    Bc4 d6
    0-0 Nh6
    D3 Bd7
    Bd2 a6
    Nd5 b5
    Ba5 Be6
    Nxc7+ Kf7
    Bxe6+ Ke7
    D4 Ra7
    Nd5+ Kxe6
    Bxd8 g5
    Bb6 Re7
    Nc7+ Kf7
    Pxf5. Pxf5
    Qxd6 Rd7

    CONGRATULATIONS LEVY SO DESERVING WELL DONE AND THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR WORK
