The only beginner chess opening I do is mostly pawn to e4 but not the ponziani like what Levy showed in the video.
Just played a few games with this opening, and it works pretty well! Very simple, straight to the point. Thanks
can anyone tell me why black queen can't move to g4 instead of sacking in the first game
Hey Gotham Chess, did you change your video title from 'how to gain 500 elo' to 'BEST beginner Chess Opening' because you finally realized that your previous tips weren't doing any good? Or did you just forget how to play chess altogether? Either way Eric Rosen is much more handsome than you are
caught you change the title for more click Levy 👀
Lev dog lettin a little poopsi go huh ⬇️
is it just me or does he change the video titles like 10 times?
Been crushin shit all day with the Ponziani opening all day since watching this… thanks again Lev 🐕.
Me who was like “Bishop to c5” and then Levy yells at me 😂
Thank you so much levy for this opening. I won so many matches and climbed the leader board by quite a lot! Much ❤️
I’ve been going through and studying your opening playlist, this couldn’t come at a better time!
Thanks thiss is gonna be so cool to play
Eric rosen finally squeals in excitement
With black after Nf6 d4, Nxe4 d5. I like the piece sacrifice with Bc5! Black gets alot of play against white
2 seconds after I watched the beginning of the video I played a game against a 900 (I am 300) and crushed them with that opening and they resigned
I used to play this all the time, I’ve moved on to other things because I didn’t like my positions after nf6, but it’s definitely a great opening.
8:50 what does low death mean?
7:12 i think you're forgetting something
This is where the Ponzi scheme got its name from.
As a 1660 I became 161660
Daddy
Your opponent goes d5 💀
Oh, god. Im a 1.8 ponziani player. Thanx for ruining my fun
I have to stop this after a few
minutes and practice online. My brain can’t learn more than one chess idea a day.😂😂😂
After all the comments about becoming a GM from watching this video 5 times, he changed the title 🤣
Immediately went to try this and they play d6 after c3
Thanks so much Levy! I had 400 elo, but after watching this video I've developed a theory of everything, solved this world and created a new universe. Definitely the best chess content creator
Where can I send in a game? I would like to see Levy react to a drunk Vienna
Im going to try to beat my science teacher who is a 1000 as a 600 with this
Hello QGD
https://youtu.be/VmBBk3Y2c2g
For sure every game I play this week with my friends will use this opening
thank god i found this
I use grob at 700-800 they don’t know how to play against it
the caro kann with white lol
my ape brain wont rememebr this
Very useful for a 300 rated like me, another best opening alongside the queens gambit
Gotham I actually prefer when the games are rapid games because you have more time to explain your moves + it's cool to listen you talk to the camera while the guy is thinking. Speeding up the games is at the image of our society but slow videos are always the best.
Can you play “The Ouroboros King” it’s like chess with upgrades. I’m sure you’d love the game
Black has checkmate at 25:29
Why he is so bad i play against 600 and they dint blunder like this
When Levy said you are +2 according to stockfish. I already knew I was lost. Like I can find the +2 moves 😂
I guess the 'noooooooooooo' title didn't work? surprise surprise haha.
I remember playing chess for the first time and without knowing I played a ponziani
When are you going to fight Andrea??
7:20 en passant is forced
trick question: Vienna or Panziani?
Watches one Eric Rosen video and thinks he can teach us the opening
I actually won 2 games after watching this video. Fun fact I didn’t follow shit and went about my way
THE PONZI ONI?! THE THING THAT ROZEN PLAYS?! AAAA
Please don't say the london
Thank god
