    If you’re not still there you suck 😂😂😂

    I thought levy was showing middle finger in the thumbnail

    3:15 I really love this channel but 'what my opponent want' is not enough I think I really need to read some chess books to improve😢 I'm saying that because… I'm 800 who started month ago and this freepawn at b file happens 10 out of 8 games and you probably know what I'm going to say😂 I kinda know what opponent want, when they are preparing attack(before hit) but it's just that we 700s just do 'ok deal, me take you take' thing all the time even knowing the threat😂😂😂

    2000 is such a lofty goal… good luck everyone.
    If you get to 1800… you're doing really good.

    I get the idea but in a 3 minute blitz game it's really hard to take 5 to 20 seconds to find out what does my opponent want. And the endgame is a mother for me. I faced the fact that I'll be around a 1400 to 1600 player for the rest of my life and that was 20 some odd years ago.

    9:21
    Me who thinks for 1 min straight and end up playing the worst move ever played on earth

    Might be an overstatement but this is one of your best videos. ♥️

    I thought bishop to e5 then I heard what he said I was happy

    Thanks a lot Levy. Ive been a subscriber for a very long time and been stuck at 1100 for a year. after watching this i literally went from 1100 to 1300 in one day.

    watching this after being 200 and beating martin with the bong cloud opening.

    Best overall chess channel by far in my opinion. It’s for those who just love the game. You are the ESPN/NBATV/NFLTV, CNN/FOX, CNBC/bloomberg, and hooked on Phonics all wrapped into one ; of chess .

    00:29 🧠 The most important chess skill is understanding your opponent's intentions and preventing their plans.

    01:52 🕵 Identify what your opponent wants in a position and adjust your moves accordingly.

    05:11 🏰 Consider your opponent's plans before making natural-looking moves, as overlooking their intentions can lead to disaster.

    09:32 🤯 Don't rush into capturing pawns without considering your opponent's next moves and potential threats.

    11:51 🚀 Be aware of your opponent's resources and tactics, even when you're winning, to avoid blunders.

    13:44 🤔 Always think about your opponent's potential responses to your moves to avoid falling into traps.

    16:55 🚫 Avoid inducing moves that benefit your opponent's position, and think strategically about pawn advances to control the board.

    19:56 🤯 Consider your opponent's intentions and adapt your moves to prevent their plans in the middle game.

    21:02 ♛ Avoid trading your powerful pieces, like the queen, for your opponent's less active ones, especially when you can exploit their weaknesses.

    Hey IM Levy, please make content instructional content like this. I find this super useful to me.

    The one secret to gain elo in chess is… being good at the game…

    I'm pretty sure opponent always wants to checkmate me

    "The thumbnail was trickier than the video"💀

    most replayed 14:57 he said 2 rooks and 2 ???????HORSES????????

    its Knights

    The thumbnail looks like his showing the middle finger

    Am I the only one that thought he was flipping me off in the thumbnail.

    21:08 im 1400, Qh7 that's Exactly the move I would've played in this position. Dropping the queen back to threaten infiltration from both directions is a super counterintuitive move

    i clicked of and clicked the video again TvT (i accidentally clicked off)

    I instantly thought gothamchess on the cover of this video was doing the middle finger thingy

    Bro is playing with fire with that thumbnail.

    Don't move in the first 3 seconds of the video if you won't be a GM.

    7 mo late but man is this video super helpful, loved it

    Is there a way to get a bundle of all the courses Gotham has? And if anyone took a course what’s the takeaway. Thanks.

    The thumbnails are so good. Never stop making them melodramatic
