[@mememe733]

Thank you for the very thorough review 😊 I wasn’t sure if I should get it, but I have now decided that I will.

[@JedeyeCoffee]

Bought his book recently to try and improve my understanding it’s really helping. Enjoy his style.

[@AlSuChess]

Yeah it's easy to understand and has that characteristic Levy style to it!

[@farid3184]

Thanks

[@pawnslinger1]

I like Levy's channel... And yours too.

[@AlSuChess]

Thank you! I've been watching Levy's videos for quite some time now!

[@davidwestwood6850]

Thanks for your candid review.

[@AlSuChess]

Thank you for watching!!

[@HugoJansons]

[@AlSuChess]

Thanks Derrick!

[@t0dd000]

I bought this a while ago. Still sitting in my TBR stack. Good to know it is a decent book.

[@AlSuChess]

Yeah I liked it! Good book!

[@TN-D18]

Bought the spiral version. Thx for the info. Always enjoyed the Fred Reinfeld books when I was a kid.

[@farid3184]

Thanks

[@jamellemeal3212]

Levi needs you on the commission for marketing this book. Excellent review.

[@Silvermist78]

I'm rated above 1900, however your review is excellent and makes me want to buy this book based on your review. You should definitely get commission from Levy!

[@Chessnut49]

Great review. I love your channel for discussing new chess products (even that episode where you mentioned different teas 😂), and Gotham Chess for learning to play. Keep up the good work 👏

[@ThistleandInkwell]

Got this book and the 50+2 one by Michael Tam, both are helping me in my reintroduction back into chess since i was younger, thank you for your perspective here on this book 😺

[@Letsplaychesstogther]

Thnx this review is help full

[@Willeinhelm]

Cool i thought for my elo of 2000 on lichess that would be too easy for me, but i guess its still much useful and not only for total beginners. I might getting this too

[@AlSuChess]

Yeah I think it's a very useful book, especially considering all the additional content you have access to with the QR codes.

[@DiabolicalHater99]

Well 2000 lichess is like 800 FIDE so you probably could still learn something

[@Brennus1987]

Good video mate.

[@ragnorak56]

Nice review. Although I'm well above this books rating range I am always trying to introduce family to chess. Would this books vocabulary and structure be suitable for a 10year old? I love giving beginner chess books and scholastic quality sets to family, most children. Early on I utilized the ~2hrs of my commute reading chess books. One of the benefits of the annotation with diagrams only after every ~5 moves is that it forced me to mentally visualize the positions in between the diagrams. This included non-diagrammed positions/move orders that were blunders. I had to mentaly visualize why move order ABC was correct and why BCA and CAB lost material.

[@AlSuChess]

I found this book to be relatively easy to understand, no difficult language, and the images are very clear as well!

[@PhotogNT]

I have just watched this video, and went on line and ordered a copy of the book for myself. Unfortunately it’s substantially more expensive here in Australia AUD$60.

[@conjured_up_skeletons6178]

Botvinnik said … ‘To know Capablanca games is to know the pleasures of chess.’ So my original ‘97 print of H. Golombek Capa’s best games stands proudly on the shelf : ) 100 annotated, algebraic, stories, etc. Can’t argue with the Bot man - Must have collectible! ❤

[@learningtomakestuff6871]

I got it the other day love it

[@tominmo8865]

Very nice review. Even for players above 1200 Elo, it is useful to read his explanations because it can help clarify concepts the player may have been a little fuzzy on. That's the advantage of having an IM, who is good with words, teach us little mortals.

[@paulsimpson973]

I’ve just bought it after finding him on you tube

[@kostasmariolas9830]

When he released the book i decided to not purchase it cuz I saw that is for lower rated players but now i start to reconsider!great review. If you dont mind me asking , whats your exaxt online elo?

[@rubenbernal7890]

Hey Al Su thanks for your videos, I love your reviews, really appreciate your work. I have a question about the library grandmaster chess set, would you recommend it to be your main analysis kind of chess and also a playable set, or would you prefer a full size tournament set, because I want to keep it in my computer desk where I work, - home office- and I think a full size might be a little big. It would be great if you make a comparison between a full size and the library, including de chessboards, cause you have done it only with the pieces, but I think that haven't seen it with the board. Again thanks for your videos, I really enjoy to watch them. Greetings from Mexico!

[@AlSuChess]

Thank you so much for watching! I think that's definitely a great video to do. I actually recently ordered a really nice analysis/travel chess set that will come by the end of the week and at that point I came mention board size comparisons.

[@benmcmn6725]

I'd appreciate a board size comparison @@AlSuChess

[@POOLIN751]

I just purchased the book.

[@jcru102]

Do you have a specific chess set you like to set up and use when you are reading a chess book?

[@tominmo8865]

I like a small folding magnetic set, about 9 or 10 inches on a side when open. Very portable, and you can leave it set up at home because it takes up so little room. Also with small sets, you can see the whole board at once very easily.

[@tarunkumarrajput9154]

Both parts are in single book 0-800 and 800-1300 or it’s just first part ?

[@AlSuChess]

Both parts are in the book, it's split into two sections!

[@tarunkumarrajput9154]

Thanks

[@gefeldertergruntaubling5522]

Thank you! I really wanted to see, if it fits to my level! Definitely a good book even for people, who can beat 1600 Elo Bot, but not a 500 Elo person sometimes! So my Elo would be (because I am that person) from 500 to 1600 Elo so .... yeah. Thank you and Levi Rosman

[@JustinChess11]

Whats the contents of the book?

[@ritaweygint4038]

Levy’s book is great! (This review from a TOTAL noob!) ❤

[@phantomcruizer]

Any comments on “WORKBOOK FOR HOW TO WIN AT CHESS: A Practical Guide to Levy Rozmans’ book: The Ultimate Guide for Beginners and Beyond”?

[@ignskeletons]

To bet better at Chess I recommend A) Play a LOT of games, that means you will lose a lot too but that's okay. B) Find chess videos and books from experts like GothamChess C) Stay motivated and don't give up!

[@jahovahjira]

Thank you for this excellent review. I would love for you viewers to hear what you have to say about Susan Polgar's "Chess Tactics For Champions" book. I lost ten games in a row against a friend and became very discouraged. Then, after reading just a couple of chapters in her book, I beat.him badly in the next three games to the point where he didn't want to play me anymore for awhile!

[@AlSuChess]

I can definitely get my hands on that book and see what it's all about! Thank you for watching!

[@jahovahjira]

@@AlSuChess Thanks so much! I'll be on the look out!

[@paulsimpson973]

The QR codes are great

[@Sant_WasHere]

Do you think 400 elo is enough to read this book?

[@AlSuChess]

I think 400 is reasonable!

[@Redbirds1100]

I just bought that book ir is very great. It is easy to understand you would like it

[@outdoorswithunclesergey6293]

👍😊

[@Maroo-gm]

Why is ur book is diffrent then me?

[@Atim_Gaming]

Do you think me as a 1400 elo plsyer can gain anything by reading the book

[@AlexAbella-zc7xu]

Is it good for 1300?
