In both games Levy managed to create a perfectly even situation - that is amazing. Both games were amazing in that matter. I play tennis on a certain level, where details decide about the outcome. The game starts to be predictable, there are other factors that decide like preparation, physical state. And still I find quite entertaining that on the basic level, when one player can play e.g. only forehand and the other one plays only good backhand that the game is so unpredictable. I find it quite charming, while in the same time I know I'm already after that point. Same applies to chess - like there are times when some good players say that chess changed to a point when people know already several dozen of moves ahead. Some don't like this brick wall they face, but it is beautiful that you have this amount of tension in some games where one move decides, while on the other hand you have "guess the elo" type of games when everything can happen. Even though in chess I'm in this worse position, it is nice that the game has something to offer for everybody :D

as for accuracy the faster your computer is (more processing power) the faster and further ahead your bot can calculate between each move i am honestly surprised though that cheaters dont program in some anti detection features (like varying move lengths)

[@deciett]

@@aquaphobicFish I suppose they could use lower-depth moves or keep a dictionary of common opening positions and fast responses to do something like that but it would probably make the bot less effective, though somewhat less detectable. The reason for the pause is the time it takes the engine to finish scanning to an adequate depth to grant them an advantage. The only meaningful direction they could then vary their move delay is longer, which is troublesome for its own reason.

It’s funny, humans (up to a certain level, especially in rapid) are fine with playing what a computer would call a dead draw, computer assumes the ideal defence from the opponent, to computers there’s no such thing as “pushing pawns to scare the opponent and force a reaction” or “playing a tricky line where only one move means opponent is better”, because computer always assumes perfect calculations.

[@riluna3695]

That reminds me of an idea I'd absentmindedly had before. You could quite possibly code the computer to value moves more if they're refuted by less things. Like you say, a tricky line where you have to play just right to keep your advantage. I think that would be especially interesting to do whenever they're in a losing position. "I lose either way, but if you're not playing perfectly, this slightly weaker answer will actually be a better result for me". It might be a pretty effective strategy against players. Could make a fascinating bot to play against, that was made with logic that applies to fighting humans, rather than other bots.

At 8:41, I believe the reason they repeated moves is because the line they saw with stockfish probably had an extreme advantage if he could coerce you into that position. I’ve seen many cheaters who see that a line is like +8 for them if they can get it but they can’t because of a move you did and the other lines would either be significantly worse or force them to trade down pieces. This typically happens with bad players who try to cover up their cheating by throwing in their own moves

[@Dcmazters]

It repeats because a lot of engines don’t track / avoid repetitions, they just play the best move. Keep in mind this is not a computer playing a position it’s a person plugging moves into an analysis board

Hot damn he's putting the YuGiOh references 20 minutes in. Yes, being required to draw a card with an empty deck is immediate loss in Yugioh, and a very real lose condition in the face of an unbreakable board (nowadays that's like Mystic Mine or maybe Crooked Cook, but even just a high def monster is enough often). I know for a fact this happened in a least one game on stream even at this weekend's event, YCS Hartford. It would be surreal to see you play Yugioh. I would recommend what we call Yugi Kaiba format, the May 2002 banlist where only the Yugi and Kaiba starter decks and the first box, Legend of Blue-Eyes, are legal. The rules and especially the cards are relatively-speaking very simple, but there is an incredible amount of depth in managing vanilla monsters and simple removal, so much so that we in the Format Library discord often call the format chess.

Qd8 is weird because it undevelops the queen. You generally wanna go forward if you can. Developing the light square bishop or castling looks way more natural. Nc7 is not a realistic plan for white in either of those lines, either because it hangs the knight, or because black captures a4, and white is positionally worse.

Hey Levy, you mention and show in your recaps of grandmaster games that they really like to play the moves A4/H4 as white and A5/H5 as black, and that Stockfish often favors attacking ideas with the move H4 as white. Could you do a video on the difference between A and H flank pawns and in which situations you would play these moves? 🤔

[@eel9]

a pawn prevents b5 usually. for example if someone just played a6 usually you play a4. h4 to gain space on the kingside and provoke weakness near the king. Also to support pieces going to g5. And sometimes pawn on h6 can restrict black entirely and in the endgame prove decisive : )

21:10 in yugioh, you can stall for time to make your opponent lose. What a reasonable and fair system.

[@jk844100]

No you can’t. Stalling for time is explicitly against the rules and could lead to a ban. He’s equating what he did to decking the opponent out by playing cards that make the opponent not be able to win (like Mystic Mine). So if your opponent is in a position where they can’t do anything you can just keep passing your turn until they run out of cards (assuming they have less cards than you). You can call that a stall strategy but it’s not stalling for time (which as I said, is against the rules). Plus time is different in Yugioh compared to chess, each player doesn’t have a clock. Each round has a set time (40 minutes I believe) and if time runs out the player with the highest life points wins (or it’s a draw if the same).

Normally I’m against petty things like purposely stalling the clock but I always make exceptions when it comes to doing it to cheaters

Levy, thank you so much. Today I hit 2000 elo. I started last year when I was about 400 rated so tysm

Take a breather for one or two days play some puzzles have some fun and then play again

Jesus and I thought I was doing well reaching 1600 from 600 in a year. Props, you have potential to actually become a master.

dont worry about your rating play good chess. don't chase points thats a sure way to lose them.

That second game is like the Usman vs Masvidal fight. Just push him against the cage, stay safe the whole time. Not tryin to advance the position... playin the clock .. slowly winning.

Gosh I love the cheater content. Thanks for continuing this series!

Gotham, this might sound dumb, but can u please make a video on how to win in a position where you have the advantage (not obvious to me being 1200 rated rapid). After analyzing games, I always found I'm around +3 but somehow get stuck and don't know what to move/straight up losing. Probably bc I use your Vienna lines OP just need to work on my tactics?

[@honeychurchgipsy6]

@K-Deviance - I feel for you - I have a similar issue - although I am getting better and can now see what to do (sometimes). I'm only 606 rapid but I beat a 750 last night with a really nice mate using my queen and a pawn - whoopeee, but I have lost after being as much as 8 points up - it's as if I just give the game away -lol!! I think I saw a video called "Converting winning positions" by Ben Finegold the other day - maybe we should both go and watch it instead of hanging around here?

[@kisaki11]

@@honeychurchgipsy6 haha yh thanks for the suggestion!!

[@comeintotheforest]

You also probably need to work on your positional chess instead of tactics. The whole point of being +3 is that you’re basically playing with more material. It might be as simple as one of your knights being active and the opponents being useless, meaning that you’re “up a knight”. You probably need to learn how to convert those dynamic advantages (ones that can disappear) into static advantages (being clearly winning). The key is often positional play for many players instead of just tactics

[@ydgames4291]

Use the checklist

[@chiragagrawal186]

Lol, I am a Vienna Player too and feel the same way. I am stuck between 1400 and 1500 rapid rn, but lose winning positions a lot, not able to convert the advantage.

Levy, you have helped me reach 1800 from 1000 in less than a year. I appreciate you and everything you have done for us all. ❤️

[@SourenaFFS]

Guess the elo was my fav series, now i found this gem. GIVE US A SEQUEL LEVY

[@shyamando9656]

the reason why engine repeated was probably because engine showed like 5 lines which are good and one of those lines were repeating moves and opponent was just so dumb ...You look suspicious if you cannot make a move on time or play on ur own which means ur like some 500 or below rated player. Then why will u cheat if ur gonna look suspicious?

[@commanderzander580]

I think maybe the cheater was using some kind of analysis tool that doesn't keep track of previous board states. It just spits out the best move in the position, so of course it will be the same each time and the human player is a moron who didn't realize he was making a draw and needed to play the second-best suggestion instead

[@shyamando9656]

@@commanderzander580 exactly, it will just show the good lines but the human player was dumb enough to play them
