You don't have to predict strategies in chess unless you're preparing against an opponent for a serious game. You just play the best move.

11:39 THAT is the best engine move because it salvages stalemate out of black's losing position. As we all know, en passant is forced, and since the pawn is pinned, white has no legal moves and therefore the game ends in a draw.
wdym no legal moves lol am i imissing the joke
@@sircartier4703 It's an AnarchyChess joke. r/AnarchyChess is a chess shitposting subreddit with a bunch of arbitrary in jokes such as "En Passant is a forced move." (It's a whole bunch of absurd made up nonsense but it's sometimes funny)
Therefore since in this case white's only legal move would be to capture black's pawn en passant, but it's not possible since the pawn is pinned to the queen.

@@sircartier4703 Beyond the anarchychess context that Moscella gave, it's a common joke in chess in general that especially lower lever players will always take the chance to play en passant even if it's going to cost them the queen, three rooks, the game, and their entire stock portfolio because it's such a rare and cool opportunity.

When I first got into chess, I was rated like 600. Now after watching a bunch of your opening videos and learning a ton, I’m 560.
Focus on tactics, you’ll grow faster
@@lucianocastello9260 I think where I suffer is in seeing the full board. I lose to mid game traps a lot and it’s probably just from not seeing my opponent’s plan. I’m working on it, but playing against other 500-600 players means games are unpredictable af.
@@TheBioethicist
in this level
players that you encounter make a lot of blunders
if you stick to basic tactics without making blunders you will pass through
that is how I managed to do while I didnt study much just the basics but I practised tactics and puzzles
Damn, you're 560 years old??
Find an opening you like and get familiar with the main line and most common side lines, developing your pieces the right way will make your entire game more fluent because your pieces will be working together even though you won’t see it right away.
I found books where they deeply analyse games helps so much with with understanding what is happening and making your own plans.
As they say a good start is half the battle.
I feel like levy saying that he will quit chess is going to become a meme at some point

You don't quit chess. It's not like an addiction - like alcohol or cigarettes - that you can just get over. - Levy Rozman
Wdym Levy already quit chess😔
14:36 turns out the 500 ELO chess was inside us all along 🥰
Maybe the real 500 ELO are the friends we made along the way
@@Khookies-lp2lu it's definitely the friends we made along the way
Me a 500 player who’s been playing for 13 years and plays everyday 😤
Wow that's dedication 😂
That's just stupidity
I have to believe you're being hyperbolic. With just a little opening studying I'm mid 1300s.
Hell yeah. Rep that rating bruv 😤
Its really sad i feel sorry for you
What’s great is that both of these players probably had fun in this game. You don’t have to be good at something to enjoy it. Tennis is a great example. You can have a lot of fun as a recreational tennis player as long as you’re playing someone at or slightly above your level. To a top ten player it doesn’t even look like tennis, just random movement where the ball sometimes ends up going over the net. But it’s still fun for the players. Here, to Levy, it might look like (to use a description he used from a previous video) “two animals in a zoo cage throwing feces at each other”, but to the players it all makes sense and they are having a great time.
Agree . When I was lower rated chess was much more fun . It is so non standard and I have a lot of fun seeing stock fish screaming . The games have a lot of tactical cool stuff and are amazing . Now it is like oh , OK mission accomplished I'm up a pawn let's win this endgame
I disagree lol. They might have had fun but by killing chess. I mean these two for a long time are at 500 level. But players like us improved without any theory, no tactics training, no strategy (at least I didn't have these). They must be at least 1200 for the number of games they played. Now they aren't and playing like absolute noob, it means they have 0 % interest.
@@animezoneamv9116 killing chess? it's a game, bro. you can play it just to have some fun
@@animezoneamv9116 Not all people take chess seriously 😐 same way we all played football in out childhood for fun . Let people have fun
@@animezoneamv9116 consider this: during the US Open or Wimbledon when the stands are filled with people paying to see the event and advertisers are paying to get to the tv and streaming audiences, those people are the tennis equivalent of these two chess players. They are recreational players that enjoy the game but are not very good. But without them there is no audience, no payments for the participants, and the game dies. Chess needs a constant stream of 500 elo players with their crazy moves and wild games, because they subscribe and buy merch and expand the game to a wider audience.
it's kinda funny. When I started playing chess my rating after a few games stayed at ~850 elo. When I started learning openings it grew to 1400 elo. And when I stopped learning, no matter how many games I play I'm still 1400-1500. Stagnation is real
I was 1400 to 1500 for a long time and then i just started repeating moves instead of pushing for a win and my rating climbed to 1700 because i started drawing games i otherwise would have put myself in a bad position.
I was a 900 before learning any opening theory (i know the basic opening principle though) grew to 1200 after opening, 1400 after i started playing some puzzles, now im 1650-1700
Yeah, sounds like you can't improve without learning. Crazy, right?
I went from 700 to 1800 in 6 months then got bored and took a year break. A few months ago, I started playing again and for some reason I'm dead stuck at 1800.
1500 is around “beginner” level, it’s basically where you’ve not read any books, or done deep study but you’ve learnt enough about the game so you don’t make many obvious blunders or miss obvious tactics, it’s really difficult to improve from 1500 without putting in a bit of work outside just playing games

#Suggestion: You should make a video on moves so deep that even engines could not see
Those situations are rare and hardly enough to make an entire video, especially sense this depends on computer depth. Low depth engines maybe a few things get overlooked but high depth, nothing really gets past the computers except for other engine moves that go even deeper
yes, and the 500s will make those moves, which engine would think as blunder but actually !!!! brilliant
@@TgPepper that could actually be a video, but about moves are not the objectively strongest, but make it very likely for the opponent to make a mistake
There are about three of them in total and he's already covered all of them.
he has - they're called brilliant moves. when u make a brilliant move its called that because u played the move before the engine saw it
IM actually means "I Might" Quit Chess
Top 10 anime foreshadowing moments:
The most important move of the game was 5. Na3.
This knight and the Black bishop hanging out on f8 were the real story behind this game. Both saw a lot of activity near them, and each had opportunities to launch devastating attacks, but instead they opted to lounge around and stay put for pretty much the whole game.
Once one captured the other, revenge was swift and furious.

16:31 has instantly become one of my favourite reactions in chess :D
in low elo games, long distance diagonals and discovered checks/attacks are the most brutal thing
because they lack awareness/have tunnelvision

When I play chess, I always hear Levy in my head going, "WHY???"
He wasn't lying.
Everybody knows the definition of insanity is repeating the same thing and expecting a different outcome.
We now have a visual.
but in chess it works unless your opponent wants a draw by repetition?

14:36 I also thought that with 2000 elo. Maybe it looks so natural to focus on the weak white squares instead of seeing the obvious mate in one xddd
I'm like 1300 and my first greed is always to take things lol. I blundered a perfectly good knight earlier today because I was up 8 points and just surrendered to the quintessential monkey-brain instinct of "me take pawn" even though it's protected L:
10:40, rook at d-line, then check with queen at a-line looks really really tempting. I see white winning at least bishop there unless opponent makes some really cool move that I can't see. There probably is one, but I just don't see it.
The really cool move would be taking the Queen with the Bishop, how do you not see it
@@abdelrahmansalama7338 At 10:40 point? I don't see bishop in the same line with the either of the queens. Explain the sequence how you get that. I don't see it.

I love it when Levy channels the Cookie Monster by saying things like, "Me see pawn, me take pawn!"
White has a lot of potential. I know it's fun to laugh at these games and all but apart from just losing pieces in one move blunders, he built a strong advantage on every side of the board, infiltrated with the rook and queen, and had the beginnings of some pretty decent tactics. I hope they both continue to play
You just had to suck the fun outta it
@@dhruvshingavi2730 naw i mean, this game is still hilarious, it's just always more entertaining for me to see newbs with potential. it's like watching my friends' games and i'll give them some pointers and stuff but they're still blundering left and right because they just arent on top of things, but when you see someone rated 500-600 pull off a discovered attack or set a trap it always warms my soul
@@dhruvshingavi2730 surly you cant hope these videos are bullying new players into quitting the game, right?

You probably don’t remember me, but I had helped you match two cheaters more than a year ago. I had my 10 minutes of my fame back then and I was really happy about it. Since then I can’t say life has treated me too well. I am dealing with heavy depression and circumstances have changed drastically. Yet, you always bring me my daily relaxation for the lack of a better word. Living like a robot day by day my only daily enjoyment is watching your videos. Keep up the good work mate, you have no idea how many need it.
Stay strong Samir. Better days will come by!
Hang in there bud. Find a routine stick to it. Discipline can do wonders
Depression sucks :( hope things get better for you soon
One day you will wrtte a comment that will make you famous again.
Believe in yourself Samir! Anyone can become depressed just as anyone can get out of depression. Try and get outside and get active as much as you can. Try not to see yourself as a victim to life or circumstances but rather realize you are the creator of your story and you can affect more positive change every day by trying to get 1% better every day. Be the person you want to become whenever you notice yourself not being true to who you are. Try and be grateful for the opportunities you have available to you and for the positive things you have in your life and be grateful for the opportunity to help others. In doing so, you will almost certainly feel better about your own situation and control (or lack thereof) over your circumstances.

I've only recently got to 700 (plus I'm almost 1200 on Lichess), so I remember what being a 500 is like really well.
wait the rating on lichess differs??
@@valinorean4816 You start at a higher rating. You have 5 losses and nothing else on your record and still be +1000.
@@valinorean4816 Of course it does. The way rating systems work, there's no way you can possibly make them match across multiple different player bases.
A rating is a relative measure of your skill compared to the other people in the same player pool. In theory, if you had a group of like a thousand beginners playing chess against each other and use a system like Elo or Glicko to rate them, eventually the strongest ones will be rated about 2800 to 3000 even if they're weaker than someone who's rated 1000 on CDC or Lichess.
And besides, Lichess uses a different rating system from CDC. The latter used Glicko-1 (not Elo, despite people insisting on use that term), while Lichess uses Glicko-2 which improves upon Glicko-1. Lichess also sets players initial rating to 1500, as recommended by category paper which describes the system, while CDC sets it to 400 IIRC, and since the initial rating affects the ratings distribution, that also accounts for the difference being as big as it is.

Hi Levy!! Hope you're doing well. I had a question. I play chess with a much higher rated friend(They're 2200, I'm 1200). I got extremely close to winning in a recent game we played but I unfortunately lost. I think it would be a good game to analyze in a video. I think it would activate some hope in the lower rated chess community that they can grow and get winning positions against a higher opponent. Can I send you the game through the chat or email or another source? If you have other plans for the channel, 100% get it. Sorry this was so long. Thanks for the great content!

I gotta be honest. I unsubbed because of these clickbait titles. I know it's better for youtube and the algorithm, but there comes a point where it's weighing the community vs weighing what money you can earn. These videos seem to have a clear objective in mind and I can't say that I agree with them. With that said, I appreciate your content and will still tune into the stream from time to time... Grats on 1.5mil subs.
I'm close to unsubbing as well. Levy doesn't seem to understand that exchanging the goodwill of his supporters for a few more dollars in the short term is a bad idea.
its literally meant as a joke, they are not clickbait at all, he's just saying it because he thinks it's funny and so does most of the community
