Petition to have a video compilation of every first second of every Gothamchess video where Levy just stares into our soul. Didn’t happen this time though, thats a first too!
Your achievements have been amazing levy You have inspired many people to play chess, whether for the first time, or getting them back into the game like me Congratulations
I just want to say thank you Levy, your videos have actually helped me out so much in chess. I’ve reached 1500 after playing for about half a year because of you. Also congrats on 1000 videos!
1000th VIDEO!!! I don't know you personally, but I somehow still feel very proud... One of the most educational, while still being incredibly entertaining, chess streamers/youtubers. Thank YOU for continuing to make these incredible videos!
I wanna say thank you for the continuous stream of premium educational and entertaining content over the last years and hopefully for many yet to come :)
In Game 1, I don't get the suggestion to take the pawn. Even Stockfish says Bd3 is better. Taking the pawn is dang uncomfortable for white, because after the chaos, the queen can't come to g4 anymore, and it releases all of black's locked up pieces. Leave the tension or let black take first, leaving their pieces locked up, and you get a much more comfortable position. I think the subscriber in game 1 made a good choice there. PS: Congrats on 1000 videos! Thanks for being such an awesome chess teacher and content creator!
Congrats Levy, your videos were really helpful not just in me getting more into chess world but also to be entertained in all sorts of ways!! So thank you for the incredible efforts making these videos
Levy, I just got your e4 course (Was waiting for a massive sale because I can't justify any purchase above like $20-30) and that 3...d6, 4.Nf3 exf4 knight and queen sac line after g5 is the funniest and most savage opening idea I have ever seen.
Hi Gotham. I know you probably won't see this but I wanted to say thank you for EVERYTHING. I got into chess in 2020 and tried watching a lot of chess channels but not one was suiting me. I was stuck at about 400. Then in early 2021, I found your channel. Since then, I have gained 1000+ rating points and I am now over 1500. Thanks for providing such awesome content. Keep Rocking!!
1000 videos! So happy to have found you when I did. One of my favorite channels around & helped me re-discover my love of chess :)! Thank you so much Levy, and hopefully here's to many many more wonderful videos and entertaining hours
Congrats on hitting the big 1k uploads!!! That’s a huge milestone to achieve in less than 3 years time. The speed that you’ve grown your channel is a testament to how hard work and a bit of talent and personality can lead to amazing amounts of success. Here’s to many more years!!!
To anyone wondering, this looks more like a DDOS (Denial of service) attack against the stream. DDOS happens when someone purposefully sends too much information to the server for it to handle, causing it to 'crash'. Fortunately, these attacks are quite harmless.
Congrats on your 1000th video! I loved game of chess since my childhood when my father tought me how to play it. And I was always a bit disappointed that this great game is not as popular as it should be (in my personal opinion) but in last couple years I've started noticing much more attention brought to it even among regular people. I think you're doing a great job, and glad that your channel exists! Thank you!
@@JohnSmith-ck8ef It depends what kind of internet you have. My "friends" have ddosed me before and sometimes it stays up relatively good, but most times it just crashes everything for a bit. I don't think he got ddosed at all though, i think it was just lag.
One thing you need to account for when your guessing is that the person who submitted is probobly going to submit a really good game of theres so they could be lower level then the played like but they just had a really good game and wanted to share.
congrats gotham!! I wanna thank u for the dedication you put into this channel. At the start of the coronavirus, I had a lot of trouble with myself and my environment, but I could always count on you to post a daily video of 20 minutes of pure enjoyment and fun. thanks to your channel, I discovered chess, and since then didn't stop playing. thank you Gotham!!
I know it's not necessary for a person to wear beanies or hats indoor but this one looks very cool and fits you perfectly! I like it. Congratulations on the 1000th video!
Levy it would be really cool if you could implement a polling site for guess the Elo, so the viewers can input their guesses there instead of chat, and then the average guess is displayed
Bravo on 1,000 videos. That's a crazy amount of time spent helping others work to get better. I appreciate your videos but I suck at chess and can barely follow your instruction sometimes because it's so fast, but that's a me problem. Keep up the good work. Great content.
I have like 200 games where I play like black does in the first game and I also have 1550 rapid. I hate studying openings. I wouldn't have taken on g4 to help white get their queen out in front of my king on an half open file, but every other move by black was absolutely possible. I think you underestimate how many mistakes people in the 1400-1600 range make. And how little some people can be bothered to learn even basic opening theory. Congrats on the 1000th video and your general success. I think it is well deserved.
would you consider having your mods pick gte submissions, so that you have each rating level about equally, because it seems to me that you often tend to guess low simply because it's unlikely that you would stumble upon a really strong player since there won't be as many of them as weaker ones
Today is my birthday. And couldnt ask for a better gift than a new episode of my favourite series in youtube from my favourite youtuber. Thank you so much bro
I nailed my guess on the first game. I thought around 16-1700 closer to 1600 and was bang on. Levy wasn't giving white enough credit for having a plan. A little sloppy in the opening, then mostly executed their plan not in the most accurate way then slightly sloppy in the conversion but no major blunders. At 1000 there is usually no plan
You should cancel this guess the Elo because you don’t have that vibe you normally bring to normal guess the elo episodes get some rest my friend, sometimes our biggest enemy in life is our very own strong work ethic.
It'a nothing but you and all the guests that come on stream and videos who deserve thanks for your popularity, though it might be the people who make the act of subscribing it's the entertainer who makes them want to
My friends and I recently got into chess, and we are having alot of fun. We watch you and Hikaru alot, and are big fans! You make chess approachable and fun, and I cant wait to see GM next to your name
that 1600 game makes sense. At 1600-1800 level players just trade and simplify at all costs, its a dangerous level of knowledge. Know positions but also want to avoid any tension or calculations.
Congradulations on 1000 videos! Only been learning chess since September and your videos have been very entertaining and educational. Will be spending my entertainment budget on a course for sure. Keep it up!
When I was in quarantine my friend wanted to play chess. So I looked up how to play chess at that time the first videos was your how to play chess videeo. I really liked how your style of explaining. From there I found gte,openings,recaps and in loke a month of winding this Channel it became my favourite.. Your channel and chess really helped me during that time... Congrats on 1k videos❤️
Happy 1000s Video Gotham! What an incredible milestone! Keep up the fantastic work with the amazing recaps and lessons to help us climb the elo ladder!
I feel your pain with the name issue. The one and only time a stranger ever spelled my name correctly was at, of all god forsaken places, a Starbucks in, once again god help me, Times Square. Other than that, never ever, not even once. People have addressed me by name on social media platforms, with aforementioned name directly in front of them on a screen, misspelled it. Much like your name, it’s not even a difficult name to get right.

honestly, this is the first ELO I have ever watched in full and enjoyed, love the energy
Such a long journey since I've first found your channels a few years ago. Congratulations.

Levy in spite of you getting hacked this was another great episode. I felt your energy was on point as always.
Gothams intros are Hillarious yet informative
24:06 That king move was actually logical,cause the white knight could fork the rook and king on c7
“Hacking” starts around 8:00 for those who are curious.
Guy watched the recap live and had a ddos attack loaded up in 45 seconds.
And here I was hoping to see evidence of an actual hacker, not lag being sold as "omg hax0r" for click bait. Nice.
I doubt its anythingto do with that its not even a DOS atack because it would be worse
@@JohnSmith-ck8ef It depends what kind of internet you have. My "friends" have ddosed me before and sometimes it stays up relatively good, but most times it just crashes everything for a bit. I don't think he got ddosed at all though, i think it was just lag.
