I think the best part of this video was not the games, or the elo, or even levy himself. I think the best part of this video was some wisdom. A takeaway, shared by one of the wonderful members of the twitch chat. A lesson that I think all of us, as individuals, can learn from in one way or another.

I've been thinking for a few episodes of "Guess the ELO" now that Gotham's subscribers are deliberately screwing with his mind on these submissions: "How severely can we misrepresent our ratings?"

[@kyryloslav]

I once played a game where my opponent felt like 250 bot, he walked right into fried liver, didn't block with pawn nor did he counterattack, but he boxed in his queen with bishop, and then CASTLED SHORT, making me taking on queen a discovered check, so I was able to trade a knight for a queen and a bishop And then I made the most obvious mate threat by lining up queen and bishop, and he just ignored it to take a rook I need to sub to Gotham on Patreon to submit that game

[@azmayeenzchowdhury8484]
