That “I don’t know I’m not a chess pro” was venomous holy shit

[@subetai9324]

I actually found the Queen G3 move without knowing the queen could be forked on the next move

[@everisestudio9163]

That is a typical base for a 900 elo player like me, u just see a chance to make a checkmate, I didn't see a fork rapidly and wondered why this was a brilliant move.. but they is not such a move as an idea with extra-class calculating including sacrifice.

[@omaxshendy5732]

ignorance is bliss sometimes hahaha

[@jannharvy4907]

you only found it bc levy said theres brilliant move in the game but if u the one playing that and nothing at all you wouldn't find it u only find it bc from the start you know that there is going to be a brilliant move😐

[@valimaa1006]

I always prefer this calm, mannered commentary than the over the top theatrical performances. I love commedy and some variability, but if you speak 70% calm, then screaming the rook or facepalming hard on blunders stand out more. Just my opinion. Great video as always.

[@eddiefrench9941]

I think especially for the recaps the calm demeanor is better. It would be better (imo) if he reserved the more comedic side for something like GTE or while streaming

14:15 - One thing I find interesting about this position is that it's initially +1.9, then it gradually increases as the depth increases. Eventually at Depth 30 Stockfish thinks Nxf5 is +4.9. It's the only move about +0.0 eval.

[@rorypendry]

[@RMF49]

Amazing move. I still like Fischer’s bishop retreat the best: Not only sacs a queen but leaves a knight hanging and retreats his most active piece all in one.

[@SeddincY]

I admit, whenever i see chess videos titled "BEST BRILLIANT MOVE EVER" or something like, i dont expect much because it's already an overused chess content. But this one, really is truly brilliant.

[@brantnuttall]

I remember the best move I've ever seen OTB, It was by one of our better players at King's Lynn Chess Club. His rating was about 2300 and he played a triple piece sacrifice to get a mate in 8. Amazing. He also is a published chess book author.

[@lakshya4876]

So doesn't that becomes the best MOVES you have seen Also not to brag but I played a quadruple piece sacrifice combination which lead to a mate in like 15 moves(not forced cuz opponent could have re-sacrificed more material than I sacrificed to stop the checkmate) Overall, was the best game I played

[@ScottyWiard]

I'm definitely saving this position to show my chess buddies. Beautiful.
