cheating in Chess and still losing is like being given the answer sheet for an exam but not getting credit for it because you forgot to put your name on the paper
that happened in the highschool in my town. some students snuck into the school at night and stole a physical answer key, distributed it amongst the entire grade and obviously got caught when the teacher returned to their classroom and it wasn’t there. A new test had to be made and I think the students who physically stole the answer key had 0s.
Its not even a good comparison, sometimes the cpu doesn't see blindlingly obvious moves because it either needs for depth or simply doesn't consider specific moves until the boardstate changed. I legit played all book moves in a game, which happened to be top cpu moves, until move 24. Moves 25-28 I made on my own and were also top cpu moves because it's not that hard to make good moves at non-critical moments... then they played Qg2, getting behind all my pawns, and setting up and unstoppable attack... given the attack was a draw, I didn't see the point. But after moving my pieces, the extra tempo and having my king on a different square led to a completely losing position. I reviewed this game with stockfish 13 depth 35, cause I suspected cheating cause of all my prep. On eval, I played top 4 best moves the entire game and was +11, but when the opponent played Qg2 the eval moved to -1.7 on the spot, and -4.8 or worse after my next move regardless of which I pick. Stockfish 13 at depth 35 missed that I had been completely losing by force for 6-7 moves and thought all of my prep was best moves... so using stockfish to chest is more like finding a copy of the answer sheet on the internet but the teacher altered the test and some of the questions aren't the same

This is the reason 99% of people cheat. They're upset that they're ass at whatever game they're playing. You'll hear a lot of "Oh it's just funny" or "I'm just trolling" excuses, but I think we all know that it's just lashing out because of their own shortcomings.
Black also set up a trap where white was FORCED too take the Queen further setting up the checkmate I mean this move is unbelievable for black if it wasn’t a cheater and could read a board like this he would be one of the best players ever 😂
Yep. I did the exact same thing. I was wondering why it was a difficult move to see, it's an obvious checkmate... Then it was a queen sac to the knight I didn't see.
I really like how encouraging you are towards new players. Instead of saying "because they're bad" or "because they're noobs," you used the phrase "because they're 600." Quantifying things makes it clear that there's room to grow and improve. Nobody's 600 forever. Really appreciate that mindset. Makes your vids more approachable

Gotta love how SCORPIONKING1 (white in game 4) played till the end and tried to fight back as much as possible. Never resign, never give up unless you're absolutely demolished.
The soy face was used to maintain his submissive qualities throughout, chosing to remain a masochist throughout said game until the cheater became normal, and the soy grin resurfaced with a spiteful and know it all social signaling smirk, and then proceeded to submit his game so everyone else could se Le Lord's amazing perseverance and teneacity. I wonder what his reddit name is ;')
I think we as chess players can study the reason behind these insane computer moves to understand why they are prone to these kind of attack and why they prioritize such attacks instead of defending or taking some important pieces. (For example at some point the cheater didn't take the center pawn but instead applied pressure to the opponent's queen) By doing so, I believe we can greatly accelerate our improvement in chess at an enormous rate.
Tbf there’s a difference between cheating against intermediate players and cheating against a destroyer of souls. I’d probably lose to Mittens if I let Stockfish take 10 moves for every move I make because I’m a certifiable idiot and would probably find myself in an “only move” situation and blunder 3 rooks 6 bishops and a 2017 Ford Fiesta ST. But even I can see that Bxe3 attacks the queen

Leaving this comment here for myself if nothing else
I’ve been playing chess for years but all my friends have been getting into it and asking me to teach them. Now their favorite thing to do is randomly scream THE ROOOOOOK!!!
hey levy dunno if youll see this but just wanted u to know youre the one who got me into chess and ive been really enjoying it for the past few months. thank u so much for ur content!
Taking that Pawn and basically sacrificing the rook on that second game was insane! And then the third game mating in 10 moves with two Knights and a pawn wtf!! Lol
These Cheaters games have so many great ideas in them! the rook sacrifice on h7 to mate the king was mesmerizing, and some very instructive moves as well
Somebody did once accuse me of cheating, and honestly it did look like it when I analyzed it after. In a 30 move game, I had managed an accuracy of 93.2 94 after I fixed the few mistakes I did make. This was a 600 rated game, though. And it was the first time I'd ever gotten above 90. Btw, since I subbed to GothamChess, I have climbed from 400 elo to 800 elo. Anyway, yeah, after not cheating but someone thinking I did, I felt really good. And then I threw my next game by hanging mate in one move.
Just today I got to 900 perfectly (my personal highest, i was so proud), but the game inmediately after that I blundered mate in 1 in a completely winning game. I was +3 and had queen and bishop attacking the enemy king with him barely defending. Felt a bit bad but laughed afterwards cause he got me real good. Chess is fun.
@@danielantunano7708 It's always that back rank that you think "I don't need to worry about that if I just force mate now" And then suddenly you can't force mate and they back rank you
@@bepohal Just went back to look at it again. 94.8 accuracy after fixing mistakes. It was 15 Total moves (my bad it's been a few weeks) Two inaccuracies, and 2 Good but not Best moves. 0 mistakes. And my opponent resigned after blundering their queen. This was actually my first game after I decided to actually study the Queen's Gambit Opening (which is now my favorite opening) I have the game, but idk how to share it.
@@bepohal Just discovered you can also go back and finish Resigned games against a computer, so I upped the engine to 700 and finished it out with 93 accuracy again.
I really hope the "half-second stare at the start of every video" meme never dies. I hope it sticks around as a fun little Gotham inside joke and forever unsettles new viewers who don't understand why Levy is examining their souls with such intensity.
The other ridiculousness thing when watching a cheater is not that the best move can't be found out eventually, but that they find it in 15 seconds every time.
Losing in the way the cheater did is like going out to a bar, getting really drunk and sucker punching some innocent person and then proceeding to get your ass kicked. And after the fight is over, the police come and arrest you.
I've been been cheated on (in chess) then about a month later you get an email notifying you the person has been banned at your rating adjusted but by then the emotionally damaged has been done.
He probably raged all the way out lol... that's what happens when a 400 elo tries playing a 1500.... I'm only rated ~1200 but all of my friends are below 600 and I stomp them... then one friend decided to try to cheat, beat me 5 games in a row with over 90% accuracy and 3 brilliant moves between all 5 games.... got so mad when his account got banned

10 year old Levy Then I sacrificed the HORESY
All in favor of hooking PawnHurricane with Mittens? They basically defeated stockfish in this game
21:55 S A T I S F A C T I O N
Taking that Pawn and basically sacrificing the rook on that second game was insane! And then the third game mating in 10 moves with two Knights and a pawn wtf!! Lol
surprisingly normal beginning stare, I enjoyed it
18:04
It's like showing up in a car to a running race and still losing
6:32 emotional damage!!!
These Cheaters games have so many great ideas in them! the rook sacrifice on h7 to mate the king was mesmerizing, and some very instructive moves as well
Hope you find someone new who won't cheat, plenty of fish in the sea ❤
Let's play with me on andro chess
Maybe I can learn something from u. 😁
@YeaMan Gotham did not say that
That smother mate in the first game is actually quite common in chess puzzles. If you do a lot of puzzles you can pretty easily find that checkmate.
i also spotted the queen sac and my rating is 1002 but its because I barely play rated games because I have the worst internet ever
22:04 that laugh got me
Somebody did once accuse me of cheating, and honestly it did look like it when I analyzed it after.
In a 30 move game, I had managed an accuracy of 93.2
94 after I fixed the few mistakes I did make.
This was a 600 rated game, though. And it was the first time I'd ever gotten above 90.
Btw, since I subbed to GothamChess, I have climbed from 400 elo to 800 elo.
Anyway, yeah, after not cheating but someone thinking I did, I felt really good.
And then I threw my next game by hanging mate in one move.
Just today I got to 900 perfectly (my personal highest, i was so proud), but the game inmediately after that I blundered mate in 1 in a completely winning game. I was +3 and had queen and bishop attacking the enemy king with him barely defending. Felt a bit bad but laughed afterwards cause he got me real good. Chess is fun.
@@danielantunano7708 It's always that back rank that you think "I don't need to worry about that if I just force mate now"
And then suddenly you can't force mate and they back rank you
if you played 93% in over 30 moves as 600 you have cheated. don't embarrass yourself here.
@@bepohal Just went back to look at it again. 94.8 accuracy after fixing mistakes. It was 15 Total moves (my bad it's been a few weeks)
Two inaccuracies, and 2 Good but not Best moves. 0 mistakes. And my opponent resigned after blundering their queen.
This was actually my first game after I decided to actually study the Queen's Gambit Opening (which is now my favorite opening)
I have the game, but idk how to share it.
@@bepohal Just discovered you can also go back and finish Resigned games against a computer, so I upped the engine to 700 and finished it out with 93 accuracy again.
I really hope the "half-second stare at the start of every video" meme never dies. I hope it sticks around as a fun little Gotham inside joke and forever unsettles new viewers who don't understand why Levy is examining their souls with such intensity.
Did it came from twitch or from a yt vídeo? I don't remember seeing the source.
Love how the cheater had more trouble with a 800 than a 1500
Last guy had plot armor fr
Levy could legit be a professional at staring competitions
Man really said "You got to be a unique kind of idiot for that to happen" and I started dying 😂🤣
The Stare Today was basic and effective, keep up the good work. Also, thank you for inspiring me to make my own youtube videos. 👍
yea that's facts Gotham is a W
@@spreadinglove648 Gotham been a W bro
My new favourite insult “unique kind of idiot”
the "THE ROOK": 5/10, he sounds disappointed and not happy, very clear message.
To analyze these games so thoroughly and know what’s coming Gotham must spend a lot of time working on his RUclips channel.
here in india its night time and levy always makes my dinner entertainment better
Khaana khaa liya?
True.
I'm not lying I saw a4, I would not have played it ever, it's just because Gotham said it's hard to find I went for the move I think he played.
The other ridiculousness thing when watching a cheater is not that the best move can't be found out eventually, but that they find it in 15 seconds every time.
The waffle house has found its new host
Gotham looked like such a proud dad when his subscriber didnt lose
I’m that subscriber
@@aaronkh8961 Sorry for cheating against you lol. Glad i resigned to give you the win.
There are a lot of them that cheat halfway just to cover up their tracks.
The bishop move in the second game over the free room was just gratuitous
Losing in the way the cheater did is like going out to a bar, getting really drunk and sucker punching some innocent person and then proceeding to get your ass kicked. And after the fight is over, the police come and arrest you.
that queen blunder was hilarious
im waiting for the compilation of gotham just staring into the camera at the beginning of every vid
Levy, you should change the name of the non cheater in the first game. This will pursue you forever.
"It seems like the cheater liked to finish games off on their own..." Jesus... Sadistic.
but he is only human after all
Bro... I feel attacked. It was only one time I cheated on a test and still failed.
Cheated, lost and on top of that got banned. Truly poetic
"White sacrificed... the rook."
Wow, that was anticlimactic.
I've been been cheated on (in chess) then about a month later you get an email notifying you the person has been banned at your rating adjusted but by then the emotionally damaged has been done.
I can only imagine the new unbeforeseen depths of pikachu face the cheater reached when that move happened
He probably raged all the way out lol... that's what happens when a 400 elo tries playing a 1500.... I'm only rated ~1200 but all of my friends are below 600 and I stomp them... then one friend decided to try to cheat, beat me 5 games in a row with over 90% accuracy and 3 brilliant moves between all 5 games.... got so mad when his account got banned
@@drewishgaminginc.3942
When you want to play more interesting games with your friends build up a chess party where you didnt have the queen.
Or a rook.
Depends on how hard you clap they.
Seeing Gotham geek out and get bewildered by all of these computer moves and I’m sitting here still trying to figure out how the knight moves
