The fact that it was 7 to 5 in blitz just shows that even though pia might not be in her prime. She is definitely one of the strongest woman chess player ever. Regardless of this, I saw many hate comments on Levy's stream. Saying that Pia is too old and can't play. I could bet all my savings that these were the people who told Levy will get crushed. Anyways massive props to the players and to the production team behind this masterpiece, was one of the first chess matches I watched fully
Amazing event, I dont remember when I was wathcing something like that. Both players were fantastic, it was true battle of generations. Cudos to both of them, because so many games in a row must be exhausting and you can start doing mistakes just because your brain is overwhelemd or you see position you played hours or days ago. So big thanks for that marathon
Thank you Anna for all your hard work in putting this on. Not only great entertainment, but so much to learn from on the chess front too. Perhaps there is one more challenge? Pia v Gotham at Fischer Chess!! Position picked at random, 10 minutes to study the starting position, then the game!
Game #1 Anna, the London System Opening worked well for Levy the first game. Pia won that game, yet Levy's strategy was good. Game #2 A fast draw by Levy. Actually, this was a great idea by Levy to get the draw. Game #3 Another draw by Levy. Well done. Game #4 This win by Levy was very well played. With these 4 games, at this accuracy level, it was really to me how well both were playing, and for Levy to tie the Classical portion was unexpected for me. Both played fantastic chess in the Classical portion! Rapid and Blitz I was thinking that Levy would have the advantage, especially in the Blitz area. Rapid portion - It was amazing how both were playing so well, just look at the Accuracy! Too many games, you said it correctly Anna. Pia, played well in the Rapid portion. Blitz portion - This is Levy's strength; I mean he has beaten people like GM Nepo and GM Alireza online. 94% Accuracy in a Blitz game...wow! Pretty tiring to play that many games in a row. Anna, I subscribe and listen to your Channel and Gotham Chess more than any other RUclips Channel. Sometimes I listen to GM Hiraru's channel, he is good also. I was glad that both Pia and Levy played Great Chess, a very well-done presentation and match!!!
After losing the first game Levy had a meltdown bc he thought he was going 0-4 in classical, (he apparently coming as series of poor tournament losses after the format was established) Levy ask to play Pia and he and her daughter baked in the strengths and weaknesses of each to come up with a fair format for both players for content. (Pia didn’t sign up to be a paid GM to lose as she still plays non open competitive chess tournament against high level players…she signed up to create good content for daughter channel while playing a format she has chance to win to promote the game she loves) while Levy played an engine draw 2nd game and claimed draw after Pia didn’t (while his friend looked on like proud father in his commentary using his idea) nullifying the fairness of the format geared to Pia’s strength allowed her any opportunity to bank points in classic portion while ruing her daughter’s content. Pia after second game didn’t shake his hand or didn’t make eye contact as Levy schlepped away bc Levy violated what was discussed in planning and emphasized by her to Levy during a discussion of the Sophia rule before the first game with arbitrator of playing the games to the end game. I assume his instagram post afterwards was some attempt for his behavior Pia and other people who worked hard to organize the tournament for example the guy shutdown and rearranged his bar each night for Levy’s 20 minute draw games to protect his ego and his persona among his chess followers.
This was an incredible tournament for the ages. We should see more of these with different chess streamers who want to gain the rank of GM or IM. Get both men and women involved. God bless.
4th comment! Anyways, I was rooting for Pia even before it all happened, but I still love her as much as I did before She is really good chess player with AMAZING skills, and the whole event was just wonderful! And I remember watching through Levi's live and the way people were so mean.. She didn't deserved any of those things that was said about her in the live comments. I hope we will see her again someday, I already miss her :,)
@@vladimirmarin3072 good job on stating the obvious. Titles exist for a reason. There's a clear difference in strength and if he could beat pia in her prime he would be a lot closer to gm
Yeah... I just got finished watching an ad, and then the video launched into a surfshark promo. Double dipping on sponsorships AND ad revenue. Very frustrating. I didn't finish the video.

I have been watching a lot of videos of Anna lately.. and I must say the golden retriever energy she gives off is so cute!
Effortless beauty, just so right.
Beautiful beyond words, just wow.
Bots goin crazy thanks for the algorithm boost 💯
Such an amazing match. Thanks Pia and Levy for entertaining us. Levy, you will become GM.
Shoutout to both Pia and Levy for playing such amazing chess and giving us an incredibly thrilling match. This one’s in the history books for sure
Pia is such an inspiration. She truly loves the game, and is so humble while being so strong. Always awesome to see her play.
Amazing match. Loved every day. Congrats to Pia and Levy, classy, respectful and entertaining.

Overall, Levi scored the most points, so he won the tournament.
@@sammillia5004 I think if he played Pia at her prime he would get demolished

@@rahulbansal2 😆😆😆
@@vladimirmarin3072 "if this" "if that" - let's stick to facts and actual events. Pia did not win. Get over it.
