I once intentionally played a Fool’s Mate against Martin wondering if he would spot it. He not only did, but brought his Queen out on my first pawn to deliver a check, showing that he does have some grasp of some simple chess strategy.
Levi's random deviations from the games are so funny like wen he went on a rant about the judgemental french people staring at the street and talking trash about some dude's shoes

Can we appreciate that out of 42 moves, of which 8 clearly blunder material and 5 blunder the queen in one move, Martin found the one queen blunder that literally forces the low rated opponent to take.
I actually played these two against each other like a week ago and they ended up with an endgame where oscar had a queen and Martin only had a king, and they drew with the fifty move rule after oscar just shuffled his king and queen to seemingly random squares.
@@notthatbad42 i also tried with martin as black and oscar with white but martin actually won after a little bit of shuffling after oscar blundered his rook, bishop, and queen
It’s always so funny when Levy just stops talking about the game and goes on rant about some stupid thing for several minutes and then just goes back to the game like it is nothing 😂

Gotham, I’ve been watching your videos for a while now, and I think that they have really helped ingrain the principles of chess into me. I used to be just like these two, making blunders and missing mates. I still do that now, of course, but I am now a developing intermediate player hoping to focus on openings and endgames, and I think that your videos have been the main factor in my slow, almost imperceptible growth towards that goal. I’m sure there are many out there who would say the same. Thank you.
That was an advanced lesson in chess sarcasm. Your commentary made it seem like that match was a championship match! Adding in passionate chess theory and pattern observations was just chef's kiss. LOL Looking forward to the next fun game.
Martin's Opening: Queen's Blunder into Hyper-Delayed Dragon into Creepy Crawly Gambit. Oscar's Opening: Van't Kruijs into Lelouch Gambit. Clearly this is a highly positional and abstract game that both players intended to play from the very start, eschewing modern chess sensibilities like development or tempo.
20:44 50 move rule decides that this game is a draw. The last time that a capture excluding pawns was made was before move 100, and this game ended after move 150. If the game does not progress (pawn captures don't count as progression) within 50 moves, the game is declared a draw.
Oscar annoyed me when I played him, but I was legitimately aggravated playing against Lily. Especially since I fumbled winning positions against her multiple times against her before finally winning. She just gets losing positions then holds on for dear life.
Living in Spain atm, they also do the sitting on the same side of the table thing and I can also confirm it's very fun, like sitting on a bench with someone you chat and people watch together
1:02 As an Indonesian, I would like to tell you that November 11 is a national day to Indonesia. So we got GothamChess merch whilst on a national day. Could this day get any better???
"Is Oscar going to be able to demonstrate king and queen technique?" I kid you not, last week I drew a 1300 (!) elo bot, Jade, because it _couldn't mate with king and queen versus king._ I can accept it not knowing a king and rook mate (had that happen once too), but king and queen should really be in a 1300-elo bot's repertoire imo. Edit: Wait it managed. Then again, I guess Martin doesn't know how to take advantage of his opponent's mistakes.
This is why we got Levy to teach us what not to do in chess. It's funny but makes one feel better there are crazier possible players or bots.😂 Of course there should be some sequels to these 2 entertainers to brighten up Levy & others to enjoy.
19:19 I can confirm that my stalemate was the most embarrassing stalemate. I literally had 5 queens,1 knight and 2 rooks but the opponent king was at the corner of my and the queens had no move to go there so I moved my king and STALEMATE.
For what it's worth, I'm in my fifties, and I find videos like this fascinating and hilarious. I may be a pretty bad player - I think my current rating is sub-200 - but I don't think I play THIS badly! :D Also I'm a bit surprised at the very beginning that Martin didn't take the pawn on C5, instead grabbing the F7 pawn and losing his Queen to Oscar's King. Then again, I assume that "low rating" just means "plays badly", not "playing to lose". Also: BEST OF TEN MARTIN VS OSCAR - DOOOO EEEEET
also, i myself am french, so when you said the "non" i absolutely died of laughter 7:52 no it is not just in paris, i and my dad used to do this every time also, too bad you didnt go in france the FIRST WEDNESDAY because if you did it would have been the scariest day of your life

I like how Martin has gone from an absolute joke of an opponent to a universally loved meme.

If you think about it, he learned chess for his kids and i loosing on porpuse for them

all it took was oscar to make us realize what a mensch martin was

Difference is, Martin is a GM that's purposefully throwing to make Oscar feel good.
Oscar's just a 200 rated player.

In chess, people should give people a chance to die if they’re in check by not telling your opponent and if they don’t solve it they lose.
