There are not enough words in the English language that can accurately express how much I appreciate this video because low Elo chess against players who continually spam the London is the absolute pits - keep up the good work!

[@chrislevy42069]

Glad you enjoyed it! London used to be absolutely terrible for me, now I pray for one every single game! Check out some of my other content if it pleases you, have to say my absolute favorite is the Busch Gass Gambit against e4 for black.

[@jorisbuck4073]

21:58 "London players are just bad at chess, they don't know what to do if they don't get their set up." Hahaha, that's a bit harsh, but I can only say one thing to that: Amen 🙌 Good vid man!

[@Blackmystix]

When I saw the title I was hoping this was a nf6 c5 system. Thanks bro!

[@chrislevy42069]

Definitely strongest system against the London, if you feel like playing solid play Agadmator's a6 move, and if you feel like gambling play the LC9000!

[@Mr.Drew_]

Already at 500 subs, congratulations i told you to never give up :). (Btw no homo but i think you look great)

[@chrislevy42069]

Ayyy it's Mr.Drew! Glad to see you keeping up with the channel haha, appreciate the homo as well ;) I ain't gonna forget about my first subscriber! Or, at least the first one who commented

[@Mr.Drew_]

@@chrislevy42069 i appreciate it, keep up the great content!

[@Chess4Noobs-rl9cz]

I'm glad to see you recommending Qb6, tend to find it always induces a bit of a think for a smooth brained london player. Nice one!

[@chrislevy42069]

Ayy, glad you checked out the channel! Love your vids!!

[@LightSquares]

Glad you are showing yourself now. I think d4 d5 Bf4 c5 is awesome as well because after dxc5 e6 b4 Qf6 the game is lost for white.

[@chrislevy42069]

Ohh shii, yeah I have seen that trap in a few different variations, for white and black. Cool trap, I put it up there with the ICBM traps. Thanks for still checking out the channel man! You and FM William Graif are my two favorite KZbinrs out there. Really miss your OTB breakdowns, those were my favorite, especially that drama with the little girl 🤣. Hope you're doing well and keep it up man! Hope I can get to your size channel one day

[@loubedoo2129]

Great video. Glad you put a face behind your vids man. It doesn't matter which video of yours I watch I always get a wealth of information be it tricks and traps but best is the humor. I always get a good laugh with your wit. Like, subscribe, GFY and all that $hit. Hilarious. You have a unique style in presenting the content. You rock it!

[@chrislevy42069]

Much appreciated!!! So glad people like my style of video

[@SimenStaabyKnudsen]

Great stuff, I really enjoy your videos! I have been playing the hartlaub-charlick gambit against d4 which I have had quite some success with, but I am considering learning this and the budapest gambit of some sort. As white I have memories around 120 moves of the Von Pop gambit which is really nice! Looking for your video on that! :) I have studies a lot more "noob"-lines that William hasn't covered. I can share the study if you're interested :) cheers

[@chrislevy42069]

Oh I do have a Von Popiel video! I do not play d4, however the Von Popiel is my recommendation against the scandi. I also tried to lump in the snieder attack into the same video, check out my "how to Gambit against the Scandinavian" vid. And I also will be making Budapest vids as well! For sure I like the FM Graif recommendation of f6 at a certain point, wanna show all the declined lines in the same video together. Glad you're liking the channel, stay tuned imma start uploading like crazy soon 😀

[@SimenStaabyKnudsen]

@@chrislevy42069 nice! So what do you play against the Sicilian? Wing gambit?

[@chrislevy42069]

@@SimenStaabyKnudsen Oh Smith Morra for sure 😁 got the mark esserman book and everything. I will try not to give away all the secrets, but my Smith Morra video(s) (maybe more than one) are gonna be bangers! I know people don't like that it can be declined, but- every gambit can be declined, and I have some fun lines still

[@SimenStaabyKnudsen]

@@chrislevy42069 Nice! Looking forward to those! :D

Bro is Mr. Drew famous or something this is cool 🤣🤣 glad to have you here!

Gambit Chad

[@chrislevy42069]

Gambit chads all owe their success to the Gambit Man himself, soon to be IM William Graif!

From Mr.Drew.

[@chrislevy42069]

Damn Mr. Drew out here getting me new viewers? That's fuckin awesome lmao hope you are enjoying the content!

[@Dark_GhostIsHere]

I am indeed, and can't lie Mr. Drew is a very good person, also i hope you get a lot of follows, have a great time man.

[@chrislevy42069]

Well thank you! Mr. Drew was the first person to comment on this channel

[@SimenStaabyKnudsen]

Do you still go for this setup/gambit if they go Kf3 instead of Bf4 as their second move? I actually got the London system course by Alex banzea where the whole course is based on going knight first

[@chrislevy42069]

Soo... This is a bit of a hard one. If they play Nf3 first, believe me, I've tried to look for something consistently aggressive. I just cannot find anything I like in those lines. Usually if that happens to me, I just revert back to Kings indian. But keep an eye out for a vid I'll be making soon, for a fun way to play aggressively against D4 every time!

[@Zyrexia]

Hey I was wondering what your thoughts are on Evans vs Greco ...

[@chrislevy42069]

For lower elo, like 1200 and below, Greco is amazing because it's pretty simple to learn. Above that, nobody plays into the fun lines, and I absolutely recommend Evans Gambit. Thinking about making the next video on the Evans, I've had great success with it so far.

[@Zyrexia]

@@chrislevy42069 true !! i don't remember last time i got a textbook greco, although the lines are pretty fun ngl.. especially the "rooks are overrated" line (I like to call it that, lmao)

[@Fishy_17]

1:01 I prefer Nc6 Qxb6 axb6 Nf3 g5?! here

[@Someone-yi7mx]

good

[@chrislevy42069]

Hell yeah man

[@OcteractSG]

London? More like London’t.

[@chrislevy42069]

That's what you gotta type in the chat when you get the LC9000.
