Please dont quit Levy. You are the only chess youtuber I genuinely enjoy watching Edit: I might have to say something because a lot of people are mad or confused as to why I only enjoy watching Gothamchess. I am not a dedicated chess player and only play it during my leisure time when I want to. I watch Levy for his commentary. When I watch other chess youtubers, my brain tends to fuzz out and I can't watch it for any longer. I hope at least one of you understands

27:50, the thing Gotham missed is increment and berserking on lichess, if you're playing some one way stronger than you but you have 5+2, and they only have 2.5+0 cause they berserked, it evens the playing field a lot more than you expect, I beat an NM 800 points better than me in a lichess tourney because I had 2+1 and he only had 1+0, and my blitz is stronger than my bullet, and if you can't get a good attack going while berserking things can go sideways really quickly

28:00 I never would have guessed that black was a grand master playing a teaching game. But it did seem weird, kind of like black was trying to tone back his moves to match the level of the other player. The opening went so perfect for black, that it was only after that he started to make mistakes to see if the student could take advantage. I still am not nearly good enough to guess that was going on. Teaching games are hard to pick up on at that level.
