[@pekkaastala]

I think that the quality of play is actually *worse* in daily games. In theory you have as much time as you want, but in practice people play a lot of concurrent games. You get home from work and you're tired and hungry and notice there are like 8 games that need you to play a move in within the next 3h... So you quickly go through each, try to figure out what's happening in it and play something that looks good enough. In rapid games you have time limits but when you play them you give the game your full concentration and play them when you are in a good mindset for them. I think that there are more blunders in the daily games than in rapid games of the same level. The only difference are in the end games as people tend to try and calculate those a bit more in daily games.

There are many bad things in chess, missing mate, getting addicted when you are playing badly and dropping 200 Elo, stalemating with a king and a queen. However, none, NONE is worse than missing en passant.

[@HarryPhillips]

I need to thank you so much for this series, and in general, just your whole channel's worth of content. Prior to the current chess boom and discovering your channel, I was somebody who played chess rarely. I'd been an avid player from the ages of 3-13, and participated in scholastic chess competitions frequently...then dropped off the game. Upon getting back into it five or so years later, I found that I felt as if my over the board skill was almost "gone", per-se. There were concepts I knew I should be understanding, or that I once understood, that I had lost, and I suffered for it. I was playing at a 900 level online, if that. Then, I found this channel. The way you address strategic concepts like the "laserbeam" (skewer) or "danger levels", the fluidity with which you talk about opening and endgame theory; it's all made things click back into place and I feel like I'm myself again. I've gone up 200+ rating points in the last two weeks and keep climbing; my CAPS is more and more consistently placing me around playing at a 1700/1800 level, and god have I missed feeling like I can move around the board without fearing that every move I make is a blunder. Thank you, Mr. Rozman. I appreciate you so much.

Petition to convince Levy to create a new series alongside Guess the Elo: Guess the Accuracy

[@vihanshukla7132]

Gotham you’re worth more than a queen , guessed someone should tell,you that :)))

[@grimof7035]

Just wanna say a massive thank you for your instructional videos, started playing chess a few weeks ago for the first time and now I finally hit 1200!

[@martinmejia7205]

I just love this guys videos

[@kajimo_croissant]

For some reason I stay and listen to Levy advertising his sponsor rather than skipping it

[@ombanerjee2623]

Whenever i get the discord notification saying 'enjoy your sunday' with the video link, i am never dissapointed

[@darrenspokane]

Levi definitely had his coffee today:) loving the metaphors bro!

43:56...i can already hear the beat kicking in

18:52 Laughing nervously in 1700 still getting rekt by almost anyone who plays the Sicilian (a bit less now, thanks to Gotham's wing gambit video, you're definitely worth more than a knight and queen Levi !

Your post on r/AnarchyChess this morning was *chef's kiss*.

[@Intimmydator_]

I love this series. Funny, informative, and secondhand cringe, it's got it all.

Not only are you hilarious, but you also like when chat teaches you something. Such a graceful acceptance of "one fell swoop."

Round 1: Black: 1507 (He found the right moves before the average 1000 en passants. Except for Be4+) White: 1451 (Castle pl0x) Round 2: White: 759 (Lame trades, Bad pins, and “Hey, lets just capture because why not?” Mentality really hurts you here) Black: 902 (If he en passanted, he would’ve been a 1000 in my eyes) Round 3: White: 1354 (Definitely lopsided in White’s favor) Black: 1014 (Boi…) Round 4 White: IDK Black: A Very Drunk Grandmaster

[@charlieschneider5649]

Levy, is a knight and bishop for a rook AND pawn a good trade? I have reached that position multiple times in the fried liver after opponent castles. Thanks!

[@samynator0904]

Maybe I'm way too late, but no, usually is not a good trade even if it's 6 points for 6 points, cause your knight and bishop will be way more useful in the middle game than the rook and the pawn, also, You should never do this in the fried liver
