2 things. 1. Your respect is admirable! 2. I just started learning at 56. I'm awful, consistently in the 370-402 range. I love the game and figure it's kind of like guitar, there's no substitute for time playing.
Low ELO chess is spectacular. Unfortunately I'm low ELO myself so I can't fully appreciate the absurdity of some moves, I have to analyze the game and facepalm later.
Dude I am a thousand rapid. I am convinced 500 3/2 blitz is better. Like I go back to rapid beat 1k. Go to 3/2 6 book moves in I am getting assaulted and everything played so quick
And then Arturo Neiksans will kneel down and say "I always knew you were not a good morning, Levy, you were the best morning", and then Levy will become a good morning
Amazing game. Love how you didn't give up in the face of a worthy opponent. Also hats off to Arturs Neiksans who rootet for you for almost five hours straight.
I was the guy with the blue t-shirt waiting till the end, trust me Levy you will make it, you’ll become a GM and I’ll continue support you during this journey❤️
I literally stoped playing chess for almost a year now but i keep watching your recaps Levi, your recaps are not only about chess, they entertain. For some reason we just want to keep watch your recaps. You'll officially become the coolest Grandmaster in a year and a half. Thank you for helping me procastinaten watching unus*ful videos 😭. 🙏

Being down on the clock so much, early I would take that draw in a heartbeat. It sucks knowing after the fact there was a winning move after clawing back, but the clock being so short and one mistake can lead to a loss, I wouldn't be too hard on myself thinking it would have led to a draw.
Russians teach precisely 2 things Levi describes: They prefer 1 d4 2 c4 3 Nc3 4 Nf3 to 4 Bg5, and they teach young players to be "uber solid" to avoid losses and get to a high level before trying to play offensively [ see Kamsky for example ]. Their team may be getting some Russian coaching. "Why couldn't I capitalize on my advantage?" What was the advantage? Tal v Botwinnik; Risk-taking attacking v Uber-Solid; Who does their thing better is key. She wasn't frustrated, but Levi was. She succeeded in blunting him.

I thought I was the only one who knew. At this point people are just talking bout his clickbait’s for likes, they do not support him at all at this point and only care about other people clicking a button on RUclips
That's every youtube video ever lol. People just spam popular comments on every video as fast as possible to get likes (which is even more useless than reddit's karma system).
Very interesting insight, I'm sure this happens all the time in professional chess but the way you all go trying to win the meta game of preparing for your opponents, playing into or against your opponent's style, it's really something.
I'm a 1000 elo that doesn't know anything about the game of chess. I haven't even watched your games, I joined the stream just before round 3 ended. I wish i could say something motivational or give you an advice but I can not lol. Good luck becoming a grandmother. Btw you said your comments section is pretty good in the last video i believe. I doubt that lol
Nothing is trivial if you learn something from it. I had trouble starting IVs after I graduated but a coworker told me to insert at a shallower angle and that meant a world of difference. Trivial modification, 5° shallower. Now, years later, I have to tap the brakes and tell the patient that I'm gonna start an IV or draw blood because it became 2nd nature.
Levy is one of my favorite chess players ever and deserves to reach the grandmaster title because he manages to beat all the amoeba brained players every time
Levy ti amo, sei una persona bravissima e mi fai morire ogni volta dal ridere con i tuoi guess the elo e spero tu traduca tutto ciò perché ora sai che anche gli italiani ti sostengono❤️
its insane how Levy constantly makes a game that never has any updates or anything like that interesting every single time. I just binge watch everything.
The ukranian GM (Viktor Moskalenko) who was mentoring me long ago told me once that mastering rook endings would give all players lots and lots of points. Today it was a great example in both games, I think! Keep pushing, Levy.
By the way levy, i dont want to tell you what to do and what not to do, but in my opinion it would be a very good thing if you would make sure that your RUclips and twitch livechats are moderated during the games. 1.) It happened multiple times that your opponents got insulted, especially your opponent from the second round WIM Anahi Ortiz V., especially with mysogynist comments. And your opponent from your third round got insulted, too, but of course the mysogynists comments were happening the most. 2.) in your chats some people are tyring to be funny and write inappropriate stuff or spam to throw your Coach off and get him into a weird Situation. I think alone for the fact that your Coach takes the time to comment the Matches i think a good moderated chat is even more Import as if you were streaming, because you already have much experience with such brainrot. In my opinion Coach shouldnt get into a Situation where he has to deal with this stuff (and i would love go use another word than stuff buuut then the comments gets inappropriate) Well that's everything i have to say. Looking forward to the other games, your coach does a brilliant job. GG Levy, GG to all 3 opponents and Good Luck for your other 6 games. Gotham for Grandmother🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Good luck on your quest to reach GM. Although itll be a very tough chllenge i think you can do it Levy! Please dont let anyone tell you its not possible not even Hikaru ok. Either way i will support you my brotha.
Just a heads up, if you don't make a rook sacrifice in the game that makes you a GM amd yell "he sacrifices THE ROOOOOOK!!!" then I'm gonna be disappointed, just FYI, no pressure
Actually I know Triest because I am from Europe lol and if you didn’t know, it is like THE coffee capital so I definitely recommend trying some espressi to keep awake during those long games :)
Despite the title, a draw with black after the opening not quite going fully your way is nothing to cry over. Particularly since you pulled a new rabbit out of your hat I would think. Anyway, really enjoying your recaps and insights. Onwards and upwards.
Somebody should buy the course and put it online so we can pirate it or levy can make an app/game which rewards you by giving you lessons if you interact with tge said app.

Russians teach precisely 2 things Levi describes: They prefer 1 d4 2 c4 3 Nc3 4 Nf3 to 4 Bg5, and they teach young players to be "uber solid" to avoid losses and get to a high level before trying to play offensively [ see Kamsky for example ]. Their team may be getting some Russian coaching.
"Why couldn't I capitalize on my advantage?" What was the advantage?
Tal v Botwinnik; Risk-taking attacking v Uber-Solid; Who does their thing better is key. She wasn't frustrated, but Levi was. She succeeded in blunting him. Maybe over the course of a match, Levi like this would win, but it would be very tough.
Levi's endgame skills seemed to leave him because he began to distrust his intuition (a great strength of his). He needs to take this post-mortem, trust his intuition more, and just play his normal game. A good night's sleep will also help.
Gotham never fails to have the most basic and unoriginal comment section
I thought I was the only one who knew. At this point people are just talking bout his clickbait’s for likes, they do not support him at all at this point and only care about other people clicking a button on RUclips
Fr nothing in this section is about the game it's either people hating trying to get a pin of shame or people just saying he clickbaits
Agreed. It's sad how people are because I really don't get all the hate some people have for levy. This is one of the most decent channels on youtube

Don’t beat yourself up too much! Keep it up and thanks :)

This was sad. I apreciate the honesty. Especially when losing the tread in the middle game. Would be nice to have Hikaru talk this through.
