Levy, I think you deserve a ton of credit for having the guts to do a big one on one event against a player of Pia’s caliber. Not only that, but doing it under the microscope of everyone on the internet watching is a big deal and I have nothing but respect for you. You’re holding your own out there and the event has been a ton of fun from the viewer perspective as well! Looking forward to continuing to watch your GM journey. No doubt you’re going to get it!

It's frustrating and sad to see so many negative comments lately. I can never understand, like why do people do it? For what? I am one of these "silent" fans, guess it's time to speak now.

Levy, if by a miracle you're reading this, I wanted you to know that we are rooting for you so hard! You played great in this one, I'm proud of you! You had an amazing understanding of position, watching this was so interesting. You and Pia are both legends! We all see your progress, each new game of yours is more and more mature. And you are basically my inspiration. Before you, I considered chess is a boring game and I didn't see any point in playing it and studying so much. I do now. It was you who showed me the beauty of this game. It was your opening tutorials I've been learning from. It was and is your videos that bring me so much fun. And additionally, it was you who I learned a lot of English vocabulary from (ты ж еще и мой земляк, по факту) XD I wouldn't say chess is my main hobby, but it surely is a big part of my life. For a long time it was my dream and... I'm playing my first ever tournament next month. A tournament between schools of my city, just one person from each school - I was chosen to participate. Thanks to you... You truly have changed my life, I want to say thank you so much! You know, easier said than done, but please try not to pay much attention on those haters, they just do not deserve your time and nerves. As I hope you already were able to make sure of - most of the people who watch you are your real fans and are here to support you. We all believe in you. Believe in yourself too, please. You should pay more attention to your successes. Every loss is an experience, every draw is a perfectly played game, every victory is something you should be proud of :) Trust me, you absolutely deserve to be a GM! But we love you no matter which title you have, remember this. And please take care you yourself. We love you, Levy. And we sincerely believe in you!

@gothamchess don't put pressure on yourself just move what you think is right move you had a better position in both games and tied them(don't roast me I'm not gm 😢) U can defeat and tie with GM's ❤ Rooting for you in this tournament wish u a comeback 💝🙏
Not going to lie, I don't exactly understand what's going on with like 99% of whats going on in chess but it helps me do my homework at 3am so thank you Gotham and I for one think you did great.
Happy to see your progression not only as a chess player but a person. It’s inspiring not only on the chess level but on the personal too which I hope you know
I’m 16 and I’ve watched on and off you for about 3 years and my elo went from 1100 to peak 1950 (so close to 2000🥶). You got me from absolute amateur who just plays his dad into a competent player who enjoys the game. I’m sure there are thousands of others with a similar story to mine and it’s thanks to you
I don't usually comment on your video, but I wanted to say that I admire the great work you put into chess and you're a very great player. Wish you all the best
@@eleyasbtseamlak9102 Yea she's not top 50 but was top 200, I doubt you could make top 10 million lets be real... Also chess is so male dominated being top 200 is a massive achievement
25:06 BOTH players got 98%??? Very Interesting. Yes, very very VERY interesting. Mayhaps we caught TWO players misbehaving instead of one! *totally emails Kramnik*
Drawing Pia is amazing, she is so experienced and an insanely strong player man. Good job holding your own against probably one of if not the most experienced and strongest players you have ever played in classical. GM Soon!
Levy,you are playing your best chess rn. Even better than you played in Madrid. You are playing very solid and accurate. The mistakes are very few. I hope you can continue playing like this and win tournaments
What a game by both of you. I love to see you getting mentally stronger and stronger, we all know, that this is your main weakness. If you stop doubting yourself, you will become even bigger monster than you are now. Rooting for you from Czech republic!
Levy I have so much respect for u. I'm very new to chess and don't know very much about Pia Cramling but the way you talk about her is so respectful and humble I can recognize how good she is from your words alone. I'm really enjoying these breakdowns and I'm so excited for the rest of the games!!
Honestly I think I enjoy watching Levy suffer as much as I enjoy watching him succeed. Obviously as a fan I'm cheering for him and I truly hope he reaches the GM title but watching the emotional ups and downs feels so relatable and it just really makes me feel invested in the journey. Whether he makes GM or not I find watching it both inspiring and encouraging so I'm grateful.
Keep it up Levy, love seeing you progress and get that confidence! Holding your own against someone who's been a GM longer than you've been alive is actually insane, be proud of yourself.
Wow how cool was this! I'm just a d class student (at age 61 lol) but at around 12:00 I looked at the board and noticed Pia had her knights out, almost ready to have bishops out, castles and queen developed and rooks almost connected (but she didn't move bishop next). As a student I thought black looked better. Its fun to hear the thought process of playing as I would be terrified of unusual positions like this and wouldn't know what to do. Grateful for the time you spend posting!
Definitely felt like it was a mistake free game while I was watching. Very impressive from both you and Pia. See what you can do with Black tomorrow and then beat her in the faster games!
I’m 38 and …..bad at chess. However, I love the game and watching it. Your videos have now got my 9 year old SUPER into it. The second he heard you had a chess board it was all he could talk about. We are picking it up at Walmart today. Maybe I can vicariously live the chess life I wanted through him. 😂
This was a beautiful game in every sense of the word. Offbeat opening that led to lots of ideas, incredible accuracy by both players, just a joy to watch.
Hi there! I am asking you to read this untill the end because I want to tell you about the ONE who saved me. I wanna tell you about JESUS! JESUS died on the cross for us, rose again on the third day and HE gave us the HOLY SPIRIT! You see, if we truly believe that, if we accept HIM into our heart and repent from our sins we will be saved. Romans 10:9 "If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Also, 1 Peter 2:24 says: "He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.” So, my friend, I would love for you to accept JESUS into your life today. Today is the day of salvation! Have a good day and GOD bless you!✝️
Levy, been following the channel for a while now even though I'm a mediocre player and not too keen on improving, but I just find the content very interesting and comforting for some reason. Seen the latest videos about the bad comments and wanted to leave some encouragement for you moving forward with your pursuit for GM and greatest form as a player. Keep up the good work with the games and the channel, personally I really enjoy it! Cheers!
Levy, you're undeniably a great chess player, an intelligent, hard-working and all-around genuine and wholesome person. You do bring joy and light through your work to many of us. Please, don't be too hard on yourself! Maybe there is some truth to the saying that it is the best and brightest who doubt themselves the most.
Classical games are so interesting because there's so little drama until the super subtle moments. The evaluation bar is ridiculously stable seeing what was actually played in the game. Just super solid calculation vs calculation. Love it.
Levy may not be the best chess player in the world, but hes the most interesting and most funny. Hes doing so many stuff to keep us entartained and hes just getting yelled at by 10 year olds. He does not deserve any hate, and i love watching him improve over time. I hope im speaking for all the people here, We love you! Go GrandMother levy.
Much respect to you for taking on a player of her caliber---a GM who was once the highest rated woman on the planet. Drawing two classical games against her is super impressive. I look forward to seeing more of this match.
"How to win at chess" Came in the mail yesterday and I am loving it so far, thank you for writing this amazing book and reintroducing me to this beautiful game! (Also I haven't heard your thoughts on the game yet, but I thought it was a very well played game and enjoyed it a lot, it seemed as though you played very confident as compared to yesterday!)
Honestly, I feel like you are sleeping on how impressive this has been so far. Really tightened up after game 1 and now going toe to toe with a chess legend. Keep it up Levy!
This game just made me realise how valuable this match may be for your progression. Extremely high accuracy against a positional queen is exactly the kind of chess that should make you proud and show that GM is indeed possible
It's good to see you navigate a game where you put pressure on your opponent, that you have better time management and trust your instincts more, hype to see you deliver this steady GM play without cracks and I hope you can build more from this result
wow i didn’t expect that other people didn’t get their boards yet 1:02 ive already received mine and love it. thank you levy for the board its been quite fun to play on
@maltelundmark749 Because we are not in the middle ages anymore, where (ppl were dumb and) monarchs, emperors and dukes were the norm. Having a monarchy in the 21st century is just a waste of resources. Royal families get millions of dollars every year for sitting on their pretty asses in their palaces. All that can be used to benefit the public rather than those lazy ppl.
@@maltelundmark749He’s referring to Levy’s comment after saying that it’s embarrassing that he didn’t know about Sweden’s monarchy. I don’t think he’s saying that it’s embarrassing that there is a king.
Good Job, Levy! Both of you played well, and I enjoyed watching all three games you two have played so far and will be watching tomorrow, too. I am really happy to see you enjoy playing with a positive attitude. I am rooting for you and Anna to both be GMs in the future.
Like, wtf Levy! You are keeping the pressure on each match and it is insane how well you are playing against a very great opponent. This match is going to be great from a to z. We all believe in you! Levy for GM 2025!
Hearing your thought process about your own games is so very cool. Always makes me realize how little I know about chess, while being fun to try and stumble along with :D
I watched the live feed and thought this was Levy's best OTB game to date. His middle game aggression really took control, forcing Pia to find very precise responses. With this style of play, I believe he will earn a GM title. He's come on in leaps and bounds this year and it's great to see.
Don’t comment often but this was another good one Levy. Not that it’s my place to tell you what type of videos to make but I love when you’re going into hypothetical lines at this level. You’re back on top of your content game big dog
Really good to see Levy more confident. He's playing so well and the fact each time in this game he was always deeply considering the top engine move and still playing something in like the top 3 moves shows how close he is to GM.
Levy, you should feel proud that you have a strength of a real chess master, potential for GM, when you are sitting across the board with Pia Cramling. The some losses were unfortunate, but you are doing good. Believe in yourself!
I feel like you'll progress by a lot by the end of this series. I've never commented on anything on youtube, but this was a beautiful game. GM ever closer in sight! Good luck levy
Such an awesome game, what a pleasure to watch you two play. I know self doubt can be hard to challenge, but I'd just like to remind you to how far you've come Levy. You have built an entire community!!! and please NEVER FORGET you are your own biggest supporter !!!. Self compassion and love is essential. It all comes from within. Keep shinning and having fun brother :)
Proud of your progress, Levyyyyyyy !!!!!!!!!! 🌟 Don't ever compare yourself with others, compare yourself with who you were yesterday, that is Wisdom!!! 👴 Belos jogos, Porraaaaaahhhhhhh!!! Empate contra uma GM!!! Continua firme que os próximos jogos são teus, é tudo questão de Mentalidade!!! Much love and support from Brazil, Paraíba !!!!! 🌎🏖🐦❤
Yesterday, I sat here and watched GM Pia Cramling state that it took her ten years to go from IM to GM ('82 to '92) ... definitely not a simple thing to accomplish. All the best to Levy -- don't let setbacks get in the way of what you want.
And the knight just roams around telling everyone good job😂 its better than what mine usually does under pressure running around screaming which way do I go George which way do I go👑
LEVYYYYY You did so well! ❤❤ Another draw is incredible!! The fact you are able to match Pia Cramling with in the game is impressive!!! You both are very strong and skilled chessplayers and you should be so proud!!! Very excited to see how the next match is going to go! ❤❤❤ Always supporting and you will get the GM title! ❤❤❤
anyone else click on gothamchess videos, not for chess, but for his humor? the way he spouts all these hilarious jokes with a straight face and he says them so smoothly always kills me. keep it up tho gotham, gm soon
I love that this was basically a perfectly played game. Incredible stuff from both sides, Pia is incredible but Levy is pressuring and being super tenacious. Entertaining stuff for sure.
I'm very thankful for everything you put out on RUclips Levy. I don't feel the need to meet you in person or get personal at all but let's just say you have an amazing way of letting people "in" and it's no wonder why you're so successful. I would like to see you become GM but I'm not invested in it, i just hope you maintain your standards and personality.
She's an incredible GM and it's awesome to see you doing this! 👍 It's one thing to become good at chess, especially at the IM and GM level. Incredibly hard and rare. The same is true of becoming a well-known, successful RUclipsr. You're doing *_BOTH,_* and invited us on your journey to being a GM (which must only increase the pressure on you)! It's amazing to see! It's also great for the sport! I hadn't really cared enough to learn any theory before watching your videos. That led down a rabbit hole that is never-ending! Thanks and good luck! 👍
Its crazy that people call levy mean arrogant and all that but honestly he's done so much on this platform he helped over millions of people learn chess get better and basically the reason chess has gained popularity he's funny (subjective) and basically way to overhated.
i like to think it's no coincidence that after denouncing negativity in this community (and receiving an influx of support), the next day levy goes on to play an incredible game!
The comment section looks different too. I was so happy to hear the things he said in the video retiring the pin or shame and stuff. It will help him yeah, but it will also have a huge impact on the chess community of which, whether he likes it or not, Levy is a leader of and inspiration in. This energetic shift will have a ripple effect in the next generation of players. No longer encouraging, let alone condoning, that kind of toxic behavior is huge. And it speaks volumes to his own growth and maturity. Really cool to witness.

(Also I haven't heard your thoughts on the game yet, but I thought it was a very well played game and enjoyed it a lot, it seemed as though you played very confident as compared to yesterday!)
Yeah the book is perfection.
Honestly, I feel like you are sleeping on how impressive this has been so far. Really tightened up after game 1 and now going toe to toe with a chess legend. Keep it up Levy!
Well played levy I and everyone fully believe that you will beat Pia
This game just made me realise how valuable this match may be for your progression. Extremely high accuracy against a positional queen is exactly the kind of chess that should make you proud and show that GM is indeed possible
Great job, Sir! This game was fantastic and had a lot of things to learn from.
It's good to see you navigate a game where you put pressure on your opponent, that you have better time management and trust your instincts more, hype to see you deliver this steady GM play without cracks and I hope you can build more from this result
5:06 his body's aching all the time
Its honestly very sad to see so many people give hate. Your content is great levy!
Mark my words! Levy will become a grandmaster before 2026!
Mark my words, Levy is a GM!
He doesn't know what potential he has yet, but when he does
He will be a very strong GM
He deserves it
chess speaks for itself
Mark my words, you are just begging for a pin
wow i didn’t expect that other people didn’t get their boards yet 1:02 ive already received mine and love it. thank you levy for the board its been quite fun to play on
2:29 yes we have a king and yes it is embarrassing that we do
Why do you think it is embarrassing?
@maltelundmark749
Because we are not in the middle ages anymore, where (ppl were dumb and) monarchs, emperors and dukes were the norm. Having a monarchy in the 21st century is just a waste of resources. Royal families get millions of dollars every year for sitting on their pretty asses in their palaces. All that can be used to benefit the public rather than those lazy ppl.
@@maltelundmark749He’s referring to Levy’s comment after saying that it’s embarrassing that he didn’t know about Sweden’s monarchy. I don’t think he’s saying that it’s embarrassing that there is a king.
Good Job, Levy! Both of you played well, and I enjoyed watching all three games you two have played so far and will be watching tomorrow, too. I am really happy to see you enjoy playing with a positive attitude. I am rooting for you and Anna to both be GMs in the future.
Like, wtf Levy! You are keeping the pressure on each match and it is insane how well you are playing against a very great opponent.
This match is going to be great from a to z. We all believe in you! Levy for GM 2025!
Hearing your thought process about your own games is so very cool. Always makes me realize how little I know about chess, while being fun to try and stumble along with :D
First game I’ve ever watched live, really great commentary.
I watched the live feed and thought this was Levy's best OTB game to date. His middle game aggression really took control, forcing Pia to find very precise responses. With this style of play, I believe he will earn a GM title. He's come on in leaps and bounds this year and it's great to see.
happy diwai levi i hope u win this tournament
this match was very entertaining to watch especially with the confessionals, it felt like two GMs were playing
It's actually awesome that you are consistently drawing a gm.
Good luck on your next game
He can't take many games off of them though, even if they are far from their prime. That's not very GMish.
@@markomak1Levy too is far from his prime tho, but yea he's not GM level as of so far. Close, but not GM level.
These upcoming games got me back into chess. You always make it so fun to watch and I find myself thinking of the things you’ve said as I play.
Nice game Levy! Must be a good confidence boost
Don’t comment often but this was another good one Levy. Not that it’s my place to tell you what type of videos to make but I love when you’re going into hypothetical lines at this level. You’re back on top of your content game big dog
Judging by Pia’s face in the thumbnail I assumed you’d just played the cow 🥰
Really good to see Levy more confident. He's playing so well and the fact each time in this game he was always deeply considering the top engine move and still playing something in like the top 3 moves shows how close he is to GM.
Levy, you should feel proud that you have a strength of a real chess master, potential for GM, when you are sitting across the board with Pia Cramling. The some losses were unfortunate, but you are doing good. Believe in yourself!
Ah
Everywhere I go
I can't run
I can't hide
Bro this is actually some of the most entertaining chess I’ve ever seen. You are making me want to get so much better at chess. Hope you get GM soon!
Here before levy changes the title.
Current title PERFECT CHESS!!!!!!!!!!!
Levy will become a grand mother
He just changed it lmao
he changed it, now what? Are we gathering somewhere or what's the plan?
Current title 56 minutes after upload: « yes, yes, yes, yes, « and I’m sure it’s gonna change another couple of times
@@diviruspidk what we’re supposed to do now.
I feel like you'll progress by a lot by the end of this series. I've never commented on anything on youtube, but this was a beautiful game. GM ever closer in sight! Good luck levy
truly a perfect chess moment of all time
Levy will become a grand mother
@@mathieumaene5777💀💀
Such an awesome game, what a pleasure to watch you two play. I know self doubt can be hard to challenge, but I'd just like to remind you to how far you've come Levy. You have built an entire community!!! and please NEVER FORGET you are your own biggest supporter !!!. Self compassion and love is essential. It all comes from within. Keep shinning and having fun brother :)
Levy finally became grand minister
Levy will become a grand mother
Gang member 😈.
You guys are crazy 😂😂😂
9:50 "i'm pot commited to g3" we have poker references now. Incredible stuff.
Proud of your progress, Levyyyyyyy !!!!!!!!!! 🌟
Don't ever compare yourself with others, compare yourself with who you were yesterday, that is Wisdom!!! 👴
Belos jogos, Porraaaaaahhhhhhh!!! Empate contra uma GM!!! Continua firme que os próximos jogos são teus, é tudo questão de Mentalidade!!!
Much love and support from Brazil, Paraíba !!!!! 🌎🏖🐦❤
Yesterday, I sat here and watched GM Pia Cramling state that it took her ten years to go from IM to GM ('82 to '92) ... definitely not a simple thing to accomplish. All the best to Levy -- don't let setbacks get in the way of what you want.
And the knight just roams around telling everyone good job😂 its better than what mine usually does under pressure running around screaming which way do I go George which way do I go👑
You both played incredibly. You should be proud of how you played and let that build your confidence. You rock!
LEVYYYYY
You did so well! ❤❤
Another draw is incredible!!
The fact you are able to match Pia Cramling with in the game is impressive!!! You both are very strong and skilled chessplayers and you should be so proud!!!
Very excited to see how the next match is going to go! ❤❤❤
Always supporting and you will get the GM title! ❤❤❤
Points on the board with another draw against really tough competition. You're doing great mate and your strongest time controls are yet to come!
anyone else click on gothamchess videos, not for chess, but for his humor? the way he spouts all these hilarious jokes with a straight face and he says them so smoothly always kills me. keep it up tho gotham, gm soon
Yes he likely has thousands of people who just listen and don't even watch which I also have done
I really loved watching this live
So fun to view the thoughts on the commentators
Keep up the good work, Levy!
Levy sounds like he ran a huge distance to escape from the kidnappers
I just got your book, and I'm very excited about improving my game. Thanks, Levy!!
Levy you are OUR goat❤️
3:51 that was subtle man! 😂😂😂
0:01 ladies and ladies
I love that this was basically a perfectly played game. Incredible stuff from both sides, Pia is incredible but Levy is pressuring and being super tenacious. Entertaining stuff for sure.
I think you deserve the GM title, just seeing this game proves you have the level for GM
lol
What's your fide rating op?
I'm very thankful for everything you put out on RUclips Levy. I don't feel the need to meet you in person or get personal at all but let's just say you have an amazing way of letting people "in" and it's no wonder why you're so successful. I would like to see you become GM but I'm not invested in it, i just hope you maintain your standards and personality.
there is a bomb in 1:41
I think i heard something vibrating
yapping ends 1:42
Pin of shame is gone little boy

Thankfully I got RUclips premium and it skipped that for me
So levy when you are going to play against witty alien 👽
Thumbnail is killing me
Loved watching today, shame about the audio in the middle, but you and pia are a delight to watch! Good luck levy!
2:18 fortnite
Can’t hate on the draw with low time pressure. I personally would have crumbled in these positions. You’re a great classical player I had no idea
levy never fails to clickbat
You're annoying
Me taking a picture of you 🤳 🤡

What an incredible game Levy! So proud of you and your progress both on the board and mentally!
She's an incredible GM and it's awesome to see you doing this! 👍
It's one thing to become good at chess, especially at the IM and GM level. Incredibly hard and rare.
The same is true of becoming a well-known, successful RUclipsr.
You're doing *_BOTH,_* and invited us on your journey to being a GM (which must only increase the pressure on you)!
It's amazing to see! It's also great for the sport! I hadn't really cared enough to learn any theory before watching your videos. That led down a rabbit hole that is never-ending!
Thanks and good luck! 👍
Its crazy that people call levy mean arrogant and all that but honestly he's done so much on this platform he helped over millions of people learn chess get better and basically the reason chess has gained popularity he's funny (subjective) and basically way to overhated.

Heyyy I love your videos :)

It's incredible to see how you've grown enormously as a chess player since I started watching you when you had just a handful of subs. Good for you.
