How to ALWAYS Win at Chess

[@ungerscott]

Levy's Chessly is legit. I've won my last two OTB tournaments because of his study guides. Totally worth the money if you want to improve.

Levy I just today hit 2000 elo! That's 18 months after I first got into chess, and it is a lot thanks to you and your content. I started watching regularly at the end of 2022 in December and saw a steady increase in rating from then on, shooting to 1500 a few months before summer break. I would love if you could feature my journey on your channel as a proof of how instructive your content is, but most likely I'm just a part of the bunch and you cannot give everyone the attention they ask for. This series; How to Win at Chess, has definitely been one of the more helpful ones on your channel! Anyways, if you find this interesting that would be amazing, and I'll send you an email about this as well.

"I'm not going to lose a queen to my subscriber, no chance." *Previous how to win at chess, Levy traps his queen, his opponent doesn't see it. "Like I said, I'm not going to lose a queen to my subscribers, they're trash."

[@DarchrowTheEnigma]

My "how to always win at chess" trick is to (1) watch chess content on KZbin regularly - could be openings, elo difference comparison, trap openings, counters, positioning, etc.. lessons on this platform, (2) to never stop grinding but don't overdo it and (3) set a goal you want to reach. I'm a 500 elo chess back in April 2020. I stopped playing at the end of that year, came back Christmas 2023. I have been playing everyday since. When I returned I made a new account. I got put into 750 range, and have now climbed up to 1100 just doing all 3 of the steps above. My end goal is 1700 or 1800 by the end of this year. I'm already at 30% from my goal since I started this journey. Nobody asked for this but I just feel like sharing. Inspired a lot by Tyler1.

[@Bobi0000]

Hey what is your elo so far from 1100 . 7 months ago :)

[@aneesh5874]

Hello Levy, This is a very useful series to me as a 1600, thanks for these videos!

[@maplache375]

Hey Gotham, I justed wanted to say that the How To Win At Chess series is my favorite one, I'm glad you brought it back 🎉

[@pawlieTnumbah73]

Levy this is my favorite type of content that you do- incredibly instructive and I feel like I learn new things every video! I’m sure it isn’t easy to make long form videos like this so I just want to say thank you and I hope you continue to do more🙏 In case any advertisement-related folks or people with leverage at KZbin are reading this (highly doubtful, but who knows), please note that I am FAR more likely to buy advertised products if you do a 5-15 second ad break vs a 30-45 second add. The former is merely an annoyance but retains my attention, whereas the latter is a complete burden and has the opposite of your intended effect. If a commercial drags on that long I mute the program and literally leave my desk to go do something else to occupy my time. Reese’s: I would’ve gladly tried your new caramel-infused cups had KZbin been more tasteful in the amount of time that it required me to watch your marketing campaign. Because they forced me to sit through so many repeated commercials of unnecessarily long duration, I am now vehemently opposed to even trying the product because the thought of it now conjures up feelings of deep frustration rather than satisfying a craving. The same general sentiment goes for AAA and all the other companies advertising here; please do what you can to convince KZbin to shorten their ad breaks and reduce their frequency- you are going to push away more potential patrons if you do not do so.

[@L.B.O.E]

35:31 im terrible at chess, decent at puzzles, but my chess intuition told me to cut the rook off from the rest of the pawns. Levy i have been hooked to you videos once you started doing these “low elo” reviews. This helps out people like me that does not study enough chess. Playing 35:31 in “low elo” i feel like can ingrain bad habits, because you do not get punished as regularly for bad habits. See you explain these small intricacies is sooo cool

[@L.B.O.E]

36:12 The root problem was like you said, i was worried about a rook, that was no danger. Sorry i dont watch as regularly as i did a few years ago. Keep it up tho. Its cool to see you gaining popularity and support, you deserve it!!!

[@timothyclyde2594]

Great tutorial. My biggest takeaway is to be patient, think things through, and not rush into a move. Thanks Gotham!!

[@donrodrigodetriana]

At 1:23:04 Instead of Queen to E3, couldn't you take pawn on B7 with the rook? If black takes back then you fork with the knight

[@ElijahStormblessed]

After they move their queen out of the way, you'd take their rook with your knight, then they'd recapture your rook. Looking at total material gained and lost in the exchange, you've given away a rook and a knight for only a rook and a pawn -- not a good trade.

[@JeffPHamm]

Great stuff! I was very pleased to see the Bird-Larsen (Nimzo-Larsen) at the end as I play that myself at times so it was nice to get some high level instruction and pointers during positions that I have some passing familiarity with. As always, enjoying your content and learning lots. While that learning doesn't always manifest in any obvious ways when reviewing my move choices, I have noted a trend that could be called improvement by those of a generous nature.

[@Melvin-nt9xu]

24:23 he missed bishop e4 then take back with pawn and you are opening the file with a battery if he takes pawn with queen then go f7 with queen with check then take the rock with check. Edit: just saw it leads to mate in a few moves and I looks to be forced Edit2: stockfish didn’t agree..

hey Levy. Im a E4, D4 and Caro course owner on Chessly and i love everything on there, save for the number of games per opening. Pleeeease add more games. 5 is nowhere near enough. And of the 5, only 2-3 make at least 4-6 moves of theory before blundering their way to defeat. The rest just veer off. Would be nice to have at least 10-20 games per course so that you can play many of the main variations and show how the plans work.(you can easily upload games in the same style as this video but with course specific analysis) That would almost double the value of the courses honestly. Please consider this. Thanks.
