[@RobertoEmilioRomero]

at 41:50 u had e3 which he cant take beacuse ur theatning a discovered check to win the queen. and if he defends that you can support your e3 pawn with f4

[@SJ3845]

As a 700 some of my opponents play the scandinavian defense and they always lose because either they blunder their queen or their queen is under so much pressure that they fall behind in development so unless you are above 2000 maybe you shouldn't play it.

[@FluxXx7789]

I'm 1250 and I've had success with the scandinavian but I totally see your point. If you don't know a bit of theory in this opening, that's exactly what happens to you. I prefer the caro, e6-b6, french or the dutch defense.

Levy, I think what this series lacks is Twitch chat. Your first 7 or 8 episodes of htwac (and other series like 1.e4/1.d4) had that comic relief from the chat, while providing instructional information, combining teaching with joy. That’s what keeps people on the screens, increasing watch time. The energy in those vids is top-notch - no mumbling around when waiting for your opponents to move, there is always a topic to discuss, and chat never fails to generate something random, which .is. entertaining. I hope this catches your eye, as I don’t want this series to be gone again due to communities inactivity

[@FluxXx7789]

Very good point!

[@RussianZombie98]

I want to say, thank you for making me, a beginner, not feel like a complete idiot while playing and learning chess. I watched about 4 hours of your content before trying chess for the first time since I was a child last week. And I came into that game too confident. I thought since I have been studying I was in a better odds. I lost my first match and immediately got humbled. I've gotten a little bit better since last week and won several matches. But again, I want to say thank you for not making me feel like an idiot while learning.

[@jamalallen8473]

Hello Gotham, my favorite channel of all time, i am a long time viewer of your channel i first got into chess a little over 5 years ago when my brother introduced me to the game the biggest struggle i face is finding those sort of tricky tactics where if you take my knight i take your pawn with a discovered attack on your queen while also attacking your rook and it's check. Nothing I'm speaking on in particular I'm just giving you a reference and i was wondering how you just set those up from a position. Hope to get a response!😅

[@zero-sama1182]

Would you recommend the Icelandic Gambit? That's how I've been playing the Scandi for a while

[@steliosvantarakis9181]

5:15 if it was white to move knight d5 is a tactic or not ? (900 elo asking)

[@Andustan454]

I mean… well, if black went something like a6, Nd5 by white would be the best move. If after Nd5 black took the queen, there is a tactic Nxe7+. King moves, white recaptures the queen and the knight on e7 can either take the free pawn and escape or trade itself for the bishop (basically it isnt getting trapped). If after Nd5 black goes Qd8, defeding the bishop, white would do Nxe7+ anyway because after black goes Qxe7, white puts a lot of pressure on black with something like Nd4 (pawn is hanging, knight pinned to the Queen, bishop on f5 hanging thanks to another tactic…). There is just a lot of pressure on black and white has a better position, so yes, if it was white’s move, it would be a tactic :)

[@ekinkus795]

That last game was the most intense game i have seen in a long while

[@GA-lp1ye]

41:43 there was another idea: push e pawn and if queen takes, you could have brilliant bishop discovery check on a2

[@endecenso1989]

41:18 if you push that pawn and queen takes, you win with a bishop sacrifice, he lost his queen and the rook joins the attack

[@HomemadeLemonade]

I know I'm not the only one who saw a world where levy comes back and wins that last game. Levy u are a excellent teacher and keep doing ya thing out here in these chess streets!!!

[@Danthemanfromny]

So many opponents resign unless they get a clear advantage before the endgame. Endgames masterclass seems important.

[@UdyKumra]

Levy, don't be too down about losing in one of these episodes. I think you demonstrated how the openings can get a great position but a great opponent can overcome that. More importantly, it's good to see how one can learn from chess games one loses, not just ones where one wins.
