I'm 2000 and it has happened to me numerous times. You recognize a mating patern, think I'll go check check check mate, not realizing opponent king has actually no escape from move 1
Let me add my input as an 800 myself. Usually, when you miss a hanging piece for a few turns, you become obligated not to take it because taking it admits that you didn't see it, and you can't have your opponent thinking that you're dumb. Now you might be thinking, "but wouldn't that make the opponent look dumb as well?" I hope this was insightful.
The amazing thing about the light squared bishop not seeing the rook for so long is also the fact that black did nothing about it either, which means he ALSO didn't realize his rook was hanging
I admit to sometimes risking it, just leaving a piece where I just blundered it because I don't want to lose a turn. 😁 If they didn't see it the first time, maybe not the second either.
1:16 The guy's at 800 Levy. As someone who played at that level for far too long, I can say with near certainty that he wasn't planning on playing any named opening Vienna or otherwise. :-)
Really? I've studied multiple openings both with black and white since I was around 600 elo. I've tried to play openings with white as the four knights, the Italian, the Ruy Lopez, the queen's gambit, the London, the Vienna, etc. I've played opening with black like the king's Indian defense, the Nimzo-Indian, the Caro-kann, and I've even dabbled in the Sicilian a bit.
@@LukeHuber Do NOT do this. You may have heard this too many times, but attempting the scholar's mate every time doesn't improve your chess game at all, and it immensely helps to study at LEAST a few different openings. You don't even have to learn complicated ones! Maybe play e4 openings, d4, c4, etc. The Reti opening is actually pretty decent as well (Nf3)
Watching people blunder their king, queen, 2 rooks, their sandwich and a lego star wars millennium falcon set is the best content of all time. PLEASE keep doing this content gotham.
I fucking hate when people give up for no reason. I took someone's queen once and literally saw a combo where he would have won. And it wasn't even anything tricky. Just natural moves.

"like scapegoats in yugioh"
man I love this guy's references XD
14:55 levy saying that was so funny in the calmest voice
“Like scapegoat in Yugioh” the crossover we need
Oh, go watch him narrate a 300 game, one of the players tries to assemble the five chess pieces of Exodia
For my next move I equip my Rook with FAIRY METEOR CRUSH!
@@LegendShift 0/10, Big Bang Shot is strictly better.
thank you levy for all the content you put out! i don't think you know, but you are a vital and integral part of my daily life as your vids always cheer me up with your quirky humour and sarcastic comments! i would have never been more joyous in life if it wasn't for your daily uploads...and I am sure that the community shares the same sentiment! so thank you once again! 💙
I'll bet that they didn't even realise it was mate at the end and just thought they were checking.
best part about this video, Levy's chess coach still insists on using Skype in 2021
*waves hand at Discord*
*waves hand at Teams*
*Hell, waves hand at ZOOM*
Best part is, I paused the video because I thought I was called xD
@@kettern4719 Yeah, I thought work was calling me in Teams lmao
I've watched dozens of your games between pros, I think I like this better. Despite their many missed opportunities, they both play on gamely after losing important pieces, the end game was very interesting, lots of drama. Please do more of these.
I laughed so hard watching this partly because I could be either of these guys

I was thinking man that would be an okay move... Levy "this is an absolute horrible move" and here's why
That blunders a roo-
Ok no it blunders a queen
The amount of anxiety that Kevin gave was Chernobyl level
