I made a poem about this legend. In Gotham City, where the winds blow cold, Where night descends with stories untold, There's a chess player, born to be bold, A master of strategy, brave and bold. His name is Levy Rozman, known far and wide, As a chess warrior, with an unbeatable side, With every move, he takes his pride, And his opponents quake, before he decides. He builds his armies, with careful precision, And every piece is given a special mission, His knights, his bishops, his pawns, his queen, All work in unison, like a well-oiled machine. In Gotham, he reigns supreme, A chess champion, like never seen, His skills, his wit, his genius in play, Is what makes him shine, day by day. So if you're ever in Gotham, do not fear, For Levy Rozman is always near, And with his chessboard, he'll lead the way, To victories, and glory, without delay.

Remember that chess has so many different possible moves that no two games will ever be the same if they last this long. Never. The likelyhood is so low that it will literally never happen.
@@danielsieker9927 many games end the same sinve most moves are theory and moves that have been played before, so its not rlly as rare as it would have been id every game was played completely random, still extremy rare to have an indentical end
April 1st is a very special day for levy. Last year he became a grandmaster on this day and now he beats the world champion. Hopefully next year he becomes world champion 🏆🏆
I had literally just finished watching Dina's recap of her win the video before this one! I was getting annoyed because I was waiting for Levy to say "April Fools!" Dina played so well! Congrats to her on her win!
But the real question is why black, in the real game, actually moved his king 4 times in the middle of the game? After I saw that I was almost sure Levi used one of his GTO games for this one.
I watched her game live yesterday (mostly second half), so I was pretty excited watching Levy's video until approximately at half I recognized I've seen this game already.
That reveal of a classical game reaching the exact same position is truly mind-blowing. (Edit: Ah ok, April Fool's... And just to clarify, I did think it was a wild coincidence that the same position was reached. Not that the exact same moves had been played up until then.)
I just wanna talk about 13:55 where the engine says M13, "Levy" plays Kh1 which gets a ?! from the evaluation, but then after a moment it realises that now it's actually M10. That was the real brilliant move all along.
Hey, I am new to the chess community. I've casually played my whole life but my 10 year old son started to play and has learned so much from you! We love your content! Thank you!
Wow I can't believe levy beat magnus, and also the fact that this exact same position was played in another classical game is a miracle. Levy is truly one of the chess of all time
Yeah well its because Levy's passion for acting is palpable. Its clear that he puts his heart and soul into each performance, and his dedication to his craft is truly inspiring Gotham has an incredible range, able to seamlessly transition between intense dramatic scenes and lighthearted comedic moments
This taught me so much as it's the first complete game I watched of Levys. 1. If Magnus isn't receiving brilliant move credits then I shouldn't be expecting to receive them. 2. This also tells me that while we are attempting to value sacrificing/keeping a piece it probably should have less weight behind this overall. After reviewing a handful of matches of Magnus's, It's impressive how fast and loose he can play his pieces and come out on top, while somebody with an opposing strategy can possibly do the same for very different reasons and have similar results. Not necessarily referring to Levy completely on this one, but he tends to utilize this concept often in various ways. 3. If 2322 can win against 2853, It shows there's always opportunity in a game. 3. Last but certainly not least, Humans are a product of the culture around them and this results in its own level of flaws like preference over other factors. You look at Carlsen's Sicilian Defense choice. It's his most common defense and it's also been used in around 20% of all games since 1960. while it's one of the oldest registered defenses, you can look at the Nimzo-Indian Defense created in the 1920s as an alternative to the Sicilian to prioritize pawn placement over Bishops. While the percentages are lower back then, relative to the others being played, it was quite high for that time. It tells us quite a bit about how people like Fischer and Kasparov impacted Magnus, as he could have used Alekhines preferred Indian Game: Knights Variation or Lasker's most commonly used Ruy Lopez Opening: Berlin Defense, but he didn't. I'm sure there's plenty of justifications for the Sicilian as it's never a bad move, but it's the influence behind why the line of thought and preference I find more interesting here.
Today's stare, an absolute masterpiece. There should be an art gallery just full of Levi's best stares, I mean they encapsulate life itself, and I would be incomplete without it.
Levy is progressing rapidly in the field of chess. Last year on the same day, he obtained his GM title and today he achieved the rare feat of defeating the world champion himself.
It's absolutely amazing to see that two games on the exact same day were played with the exact same 31 moves!!!!!!!!!!! that's even rarer than a 1 in 12 chance!!!!!
I don't know where I would be more amazed. Levy defeating Magnus or the fact that their position was the exact same position of two players playing a game miles away from them. Applause to Levy and for this 🔥video
I'd be more amazed at the second one, that's near impossible, the chance of that happening is smaller than the smallest number above zero you can imagine.
I knew it was an April fools joke the whole time but I really wanted to see who had played the game, and wow what a game played by Dina Belenkaya, that was breathtaking
The analysis he makes of the game is really funny :D when the WGM sacrificed her bishop with a brilliant move and Levy said he just blundered it, it made me laugh :D it is funny how he made it all work, explaining a GM game like a 800 elo player :P that's the strengh of Levy's humour and channel :)
He didn’t even bother making his masking subtle when moving his mouse cursor across it near the end :3 I guess it’s a little hidden giveaway as he says “very similar” for the literal same image hehe
I literally watched Dina’s recap right before this and was amazed they were so similar until C5!! 😂 that’s when i remembered what day it was. Well done Levy.
Yeah, I watched Dina game live (which was yesterday) and for a while I was like, wow this looks very close to Dina's game, no way... wait, it looks exactly like her game! then I went to comments.
12:54 Levi should have just turned this match into a teilogy of 30min videos explaining slowly every possibility he was thinking about and what he was thinking about Magnus and how it all made him feel
When I figured out half way that it was Dina Blenkaya's game, I felt like a chess pro. The king walk, the pawn cutting off the queen. I was thinking wait a minute, isn't this Dina's game? I'm not great at playing chess, but I'm about master level youtube viewer of chess.
Congratulations on your win! After getting the grandmaster title from last year, and beating magnus this year, it seems like your chess career is going to blow up

In Gotham City, where the winds blow cold,
Where night descends with stories untold,
There's a chess player, born to be bold,
A master of strategy, brave and bold.
His name is Levy Rozman, known far and wide,
As a chess warrior, with an unbeatable side,
With every move, he takes his pride,
And his opponents quake, before he decides.
He builds his armies, with careful precision,
And every piece is given a special mission,
His knights, his bishops, his pawns, his queen,
All work in unison, like a well-oiled machine.
In Gotham, he reigns supreme,
A chess champion, like never seen,
His skills, his wit, his genius in play,
Is what makes him shine, day by day.
So if you're ever in Gotham, do not fear,
For Levy Rozman is always near,
And with his chessboard, he'll lead the way,
To victories, and glory, without delay.
The fact that Dina actually pulled this off in a tournament is impressive.
That too against an opponent about 300 points higher than her.
so what was her opponent's rationale for moving the king 4 times??? he's a GM after all

It's his most common defense and it's also been used in around 20% of all games since 1960. while it's one of the oldest registered defenses, you can look at the Nimzo-Indian Defense created in the 1920s as an alternative to the Sicilian to prioritize pawn placement over Bishops. While the percentages are lower back then, relative to the others being played, it was quite high for that time. It tells us quite a bit about how people like Fischer and Kasparov impacted Magnus, as he could have used Alekhines preferred Indian Game: Knights Variation or Lasker's most commonly used Ruy Lopez Opening: Berlin Defense, but he didn't. I'm sure there's plenty of justifications for the Sicilian as it's never a bad move, but it's the influence behind why the line of thought and preference I find more interesting here.
bro wrote an essay on an april fools joke
@@user-lf6du8te5q 😂
Today's stare, an absolute masterpiece. There should be an art gallery just full of Levi's best stares, I mean they encapsulate life itself, and I would be incomplete without it.
@YeaMan ur a bot
@YeaMan Then why do you make the EXACT same comment on EVERY video?
Levy is progressing rapidly in the field of chess. Last year on the same day, he obtained his GM title and today he achieved the rare feat of defeating the world champion himself.
Yeah totally 💀
It’s April fools my guy
@@mountainman4471 no shit Sherlock
@Raphael Audi he knows that's why he said last year on the same day
@@mountainman4471 r/woooosh
congratulations levy, you are now one of the chess players ever
edit: yall really think this comment wasnt acknowledging the joke
I mean you aint wrong
from now onward, but certainly not before.
this was an april fools joke
@@nottbg r/whoooosh
@@nottbg he never said it tho
Perfect acting skills, I genuinely thought this was real..
Levy did not expect the third brilliant move, it was shocking for him too...
Got fooled in April fool's
It's absolutely amazing to see that two games on the exact same day were played with the exact same 31 moves!!!!!!!!!!! that's even rarer than a 1 in 12 chance!!!!!
i think its a 1/13 chance
1/14
ummm actually I did the math and it’s actually (using advanced math such as 2+4=6) 1/17
What was the other game
Roughly a 1 in 365 chance
I don't know where I would be more amazed. Levy defeating Magnus or the fact that their position was the exact same position of two players playing a game miles away from them. Applause to Levy and for this 🔥video
Lmao not sure if you're joking but just in case, it was an april fools joke lol
I'd be more amazed at the second one, that's near impossible, the chance of that happening is smaller than the smallest number above zero you can imagine.
@@Falcogamer19its sarcasm
@@icedqq The first real number above zero doesn't exist.
The computer can piss off got me laughing
Im so happy for levy on his totally real and genuine win against Magnus, truely one of the chess moments of all time.
I knew it was an April fools joke the whole time but I really wanted to see who had played the game, and wow what a game played by Dina Belenkaya, that was breathtaking
The analysis he makes of the game is really funny :D when the WGM sacrificed her bishop with a brilliant move and Levy said he just blundered it, it made me laugh :D it is funny how he made it all work, explaining a GM game like a 800 elo player :P that's the strengh of Levy's humour and channel :)
Levy really is op since he became a gm last year. Fabulous game
Bro you're a genius
He really had us in the first half 😂
Man had me till i saw the comments bro
more like in the first 99%
april first "beat magnus carlsen".... nah not really
SKILLISSUE, knew it from the moment I saw the thumbnail
ohh come on he literally did same thing last year as well where he became GM and y'all are like he had us in first 99% of the video ????
Not only he deserves a streamer award but he also deserves an oscar
He didn’t even bother making his masking subtle when moving his mouse cursor across it near the end :3
I guess it’s a little hidden giveaway as he says “very similar” for the literal same image hehe
That stare really made me feel as if he was just gazing about human existence 9/10
Go away Yeaman
Broo I genuinely felt sooooo happy for him😭😂😂
Why wouldn’t you?
@@wisdomplaysbtd6144check the video upload date.
I literally watched Dina’s recap right before this and was amazed they were so similar until C5!! 😂 that’s when i remembered what day it was. Well done Levy.
Yeah, I watched Dina game live (which was yesterday) and for a while I was like, wow this looks very close to Dina's game, no way... wait, it looks exactly like her game! then I went to comments.
I was fooled by this video for literally ten months until I found a comment a recent video saying that this was an April Fool's 💀
This is the first April Fools in YEARS that completely and utterly got me until 16:20. God damn it.
"The computer gives it an inaccuracy but the computer can piss off" Killed me 🤣🤣🤣
Gotham having a game of his life meanwhile Magnus finishing fifth bottle of beer
this is so sad
Bruh it's an april fool joke😂
Haha I was there with u man
@@hridanjalneupane1903 I felt so happy for him until I saw all the April fools comments
@@casfv lmaoo i thought the same except i knew it was april fools from agadmators video😂
12:54 Levi should have just turned this match into a teilogy of 30min videos explaining slowly every possibility he was thinking about and what he was thinking about Magnus and how it all made him feel
I’m so happy for your very real win, Levi. You deserve it King!
bruh cant even spell his name properly
@@hexlok7 r/whoosh

So proud of Levy on the win, what a great way to start the month of April

I was waiting for this video 5 years! Congrats Levy! We need to celebrate this day!
Go away Yeaman

April fools
@@Hovstaschack no reallyyy?!?!!?!!
"I could do this, I could do that, I could check. What if I just keep taking, though?"
I felt that one.
this is one of the best April fools ever. Also the way it's revealed at the end is amazing
This is the greatest levi moment of his entire career
you do know that today is april fools day right?
@@niteeshj1097 you do know that hes trying to fool the people who check comments at the start of the video?
@@krishpiscool oh sorry I didn't think anyone would be dumb enough to fall for that
For Levy, it was the greatest day of his life. For Magnus, it was Tuesday.
for you It was April fools
@@Aarush_smile Bhahahahaah you killed him xd
Imagine beating maximum stockfish at a normal chess game one on one because thats what it feels like beating the goat 🔥🔥🔥🔥
When I figured out half way that it was Dina Blenkaya's game, I felt like a chess pro. The king walk, the pawn cutting off the queen. I was thinking wait a minute, isn't this Dina's game? I'm not great at playing chess, but I'm about master level youtube viewer of chess.
I recognized the game as soon as the king started moving. That was a good one Levy.
Which game ?
@@sethtindall7214 the dragma game
First time hearing about it. Maybe you’ve meant Ligma vs Candice?
No it was the Slurpma
@@sethtindall7214 I think it is sukma game
Congratulations on your win! After getting the grandmaster title from last year, and beating magnus this year, it seems like your chess career is going to blow up

Bro deserves to be a GM now.
From gaining a GM title last year to beating Magnus Carlsen this year, I gotta say, you're really improving! /s
