A strategic king sacrifice can be an important tactic if you want to force a draw. After all, you can't get checkmated if you no longer have a king on the board.
When magnus hangs a queen it’s “a beautiful sacrifice” and “tactical” but when I do it I’m “committing regicide” and “will be hanged, drawn, and quartered at the stroke of dawn”
When Magnus sacrifices a bishop, it’s “A brilliant move” and “A dazzling save” But when I sacrifice a bishop, I’m “suspended from all churches worldwide” and “serving a life sentence in jail”
"They are art school students!!" Magnus sends a message, Liem squeezes Hansen, Duda smacks Shakh as Anish hangs pieces in consecutive games. Maybe not quite masterpieces but entertaining. Thanks for the recap and the jokes - very funny!!
What he means is that although the king is close enough to either pawn to stop it, the two pawns are far enough away from each other that he won't be able to travel back to the other one after stopping one of them
Yes, AA and AAA are standardized worldwide and are based on the metric system.... It's strange here in the UK, officially we are metric, so all foodstuffs have to be in Grams but our roadsystem still uses miles and we still measure our speed in Mph
The US is officially both metric and imperial as well, although instances of metric usage in the US (outside of scientific pursuits) is rare. For me, I'm most interested in both the US and UK using a gallon as a measurement of liquid, but just not the same 'gallon'. . .
Metric usage in the US is mostly confined to science and sports, i.e. "10k run" in the US refers to 10 kilometers, not 10k yards. We also use the litre but we spell it liter, as in "2-liter soda". The system we use for most things, with cups, ounces, gallons, inches, feet, yards, pounds, etc. is called the Imperial system, and it's not very good. Fahrenheit is, however, superior to Celsius in my opinion, simply because the degrees are smaller so it allows for a more granular (precise) measurement in whole degrees. Celsius (really Kelvin) is better for science, though. Everyone almost everywhere uses the same measure of time.
@@kevinemery2750 technically speaking, in terms of metrology the US swapped to metric in the 70s when it decided to define all measurements as precise ratios to the metric system (i.e. an inch is *exactly* 25.4mm). As for the precision of Fahrenheit, the problem is the same, it’s only “precise” in the sense of being a smaller unit, but it’s precision is dependent on the Celsius scale. The modern debate is simply silly because Fahrenheit now is everywhere a scaling factor, *all modern thermometers are Celsius*, they just change the printed lines and numbers.
@@kevinemery2750 you could argue that F is more accurate than C if you're only using whole numbers, however the fact that water freezes at 0 and boils at 100 makes it easier to gauge temperature at a human level :) Same goes for Km as opposed to M I guess :)
I can't even begin to explain how much you've helped my style of playing chess. I discovered your channel a year ago and gradually began learning more and more tactics (maybe gambits) from you gotham. Keep it up! :)
25:20 Metric is the one used internationally, Imperial is the American one, and the International System is the "science one" (that, granted, is basically adapted metric)

I just want to thank you so much for me learning the whole game and still learning because of you. I never understood chess but after learning more and more about the openings, checkmate list and the danger levels of course I literally advanced so much for someone who had no clue what chess is. so Thank you Levy.
at around 2:32 it sounded like a Mr ballen story. Even levy's tone when he says Pragg was making a bunch of natural looking good moves.... the tone is filled with foreboding.
25:20 International System of Units (SI), or metric system used in almost all of the world. Imperial units (inch, feet, etc.) it's commonly used on USA, even if their national institute (NIST) uses the SI.
Had to say this because I just had a physics class and was suffering through converting pounds to kg to mass. - Metric is the European system of measurement, metres, kilograms, Litres. - Imperial is the American system, feet, pounds, gallons. - SI units are the universal scientific measurements for laboratories and such. Side tangent over, love you Levy, never measure anything

At 10:35 I only see ONE safe square for the king to move but Levy can see a King's Gambit move instantly. This man never cease to amaze me.
The other move is Qd6, not Kd6. He must have forgotten it was two moves not two moves for king.
Had to hit pause and search for a comment about that XD
Can someone explain it to me I don’t understand why he can move towards the bishop
@@vortexpug He cannot. But he can interpose the bishops check with the queen.
A strategic king sacrifice can be an important tactic if you want to force a draw. After all, you can't get checkmated if you no longer have a king on the board.
The hulk comparison is pretty apt considering how often Magnus tears his shirt.
"you're seriously playing the caro kann?"
Statistically, he tears his shirt 100% more than any other FIDE champion.
@@BradPeirson your statement makes no sense
Lol 😂😂🤣🤣
Only Magnus is a skinny shrimp with no muscle 😂

"Is better than THIS pawn..." *highlights knight*

Gimme the time stamp please

Im glad everyone noticed 😂
this pawn is better than this one . because this one .... thats what levy said tho .
The pawn was better than the knight!😎

Ah yes, one of the two only moves, Kd6!, hanging the king.
(He probably meant Qd6)
king sac lol
True
When you get really good you can master the art of king sacrefices
this hangs the king
You don't expect king's gambit from professional time to time. It is a tricky move
when magnus is mad it's "awe-inspiring" and "great chess" but when i do it i'm "tilted" and i "need to resign"
when magnus starts beating kids he's "getting revenge" and "showing his level" but when I do it I'm a "felon" and I "need to serve a sentence"
when magnus takes a horse he’s “winning” and “doing so good” but when I do it I’m “stealing” and “should go to prison”
When magnus hangs a queen it’s “a beautiful sacrifice” and “tactical” but when I do it I’m “committing regicide” and “will be hanged, drawn, and quartered at the stroke of dawn”
When Magnus sacrifices a bishop, it’s “A brilliant move” and “A dazzling save” But when I sacrifice a bishop, I’m “suspended from all churches worldwide” and “serving a life sentence in jail”
The only difference is that Mongoose is the goat.,😊
Only you, Levy, can stop Magnus. Get that GM title and get him
😐
Levy would thump magnus, no cap
Levy can't even win an IM Invitational against an FM kid. Even in blindfold, Magnus schools Levy 10/10

You’re forgetting his video from a couple weeks ago, he got an honorary gm title
10:34
Kd6! Sac the king to avoid checkmate. Truly an inspiring move. You can't get checkmated when there is no king
He meant to move the queen there
9:40 I could see Magnus going full Walter White here. "I am not in danger. I am the danger"
I am the one who knocks! 😂😂
nice :D
Been waiting for this and Magnus claiming he’s the best without sounding arrogant is everything
The fact that Magnus just reality checks the prodigy is so fascinating and very important for Prag's own development. Love the recap, as always x)
prag is trash
Hmm wasnt hikarus title that?
Carlos Magnussen is literally better than anyone.
yeah, he should try to be, i don’t know, the world champion? i think he has a good shot of being the world champ tbh

Kd6: literally runs into a bishop
He meant Qd6 and Kf6 are the only moves

10:32 Levy.. there is one move with the king, not two
He didn’t say with the king, he meant Qd6 blocking
Yes i know i just thought i looked funny
10:36 I am dreaming or what why did you arrow king d6?????
It's in the bishop's line
He meant Queen to d6, just misdrew the arrow
10:36 There are "two" only moves 😁😁😁
When that knight started hanging I definitely tried to calculate how that wasn't a massive blunder
10:35 ah yes king d6, must be the famous king's gambit.
27:14 "...and he gets both rooks off" 😳
24:54 yes, AA and AAA battery is very common in many parts of the world. Metric is the universal one, American use the imperial.
10:36 Levy out here trying to cheat magnus
“Two only moves “😂🤦♂️😂🤣 just one ain’t legal
Anger is a good emotion
10:35 Yes there are two moves just not two king moves...
Anish said that last move was a missclick, he wanted the knight on e4
10:37 Here Kd6 is illegal as it is in-fact the diagonal controlled by the bishop.
10:37 I don't think the king could move to d6 xD
When Magnus makes a weird move he is a genius, me, im just dumb
1:25 ah yes, the Semi-Tarasche. Isolated pawn variation. Very popular.
Thanks for fixing that blind, it was killing me!

shouldve showed the queen endgame one! Best display of Magnuss genius
10:33 That caught me off-guard. Not even sure if he was joking xD
24:54 yeah we use AA and AAA as well
The only thing that consistently defeats every world champion is time.
That queen + rook sacrifice was absolutely beastly

Lol Magnus would never call prag a boss
Thank you Levy for advising me how to handle my victories against Magnus. I'm sure this information will be useful any day now
Yes Double AA and Triple AAA are used everywhere
10:32 I'm not sure that other move is quite legal, Levy...
16:00 This pawn is much better than this one * clicks on a knight * :O
