    it's a good way to start to study theory. instead of (as a beginner) picking up the italian or vienna or scotch where you're kinda stepping into a deep pool of theory, there are a handful of immediate trap lines that you can learn, there are one or two longer lines to learn, and it opens into a pretty fundamentally solid position. if you master these traps and a couple variations, you'll be ready to learn something with a little more depth. then you can pick up the scotch gambit or vienna gambit or fried liver, and start to learn more traps and more robust theory.

    I typically play a Bishop's opening with an immediate follow up of Qh5, prepping the Scholar's Mate. What I do next obviously depends on what my opponent does, but I pretty much always press the attack on f7 with my bishop and queen and other pieces as long as possible. That often puts me in the position shown at 4:50, but I don't think I've ever really thought about Ne2 here. I'm usually trying to activate some of my pieces on the other side of the board.

    Hey Levy, I started playing chess expecting to be bored of it in a week during the early days of the queens gambit release. Now I've been playing this game regularly for the past 2 years. What really get me into the game was watching a lot of chess content (you, hikaru, botez sisters, the champions chess tour) and developing a surprising passion for playing the game. Your early tutorials and opening videos was pivotal for this change. Though I sucked at winning using what I learnt from your videos, I loved trying things. I would never have continued with chess if o hadn't seen those videos and learn new openings. I think the new boom is amazing and I would love to see more of such videos that would help these new players grow. Trust me the only reason that kept me going 2 years ago was the fact that I started to gain elo and play competitively (fyi I went from 300 to 1600 on rating in rapid). Please bring out more these (GTE and champions chess tour recaps as well) and cement this growing community. Thank you Levy!

    I remember 1 game in a chess class. It was back when I was a kid, the other player essentially opened 1 side of their board(queen side I believe), meanwhile I raced either my queen or my Rook behind their line, as they left their king trapped without defense. It was check with only 1 piece and like 15 moves. Nether of us were particularly good, but I am damn proud of managing to see that position.

    I remember taking up the French defense when I first started. One of the best chess decisions I made - sidesteps all these wacky lines entirely. Some weird spots in the French for sure, but a lot less (definitely at new player levels).

    Oh. I had a couple of games (I play at a beginner level lmao) just after this video dropped and half my games were people playing quick queen lines. I've practiced refuting that kind of stuff and the guys I was playing looked totally lost when it didn't work. I gotta start playing all my games after Levy uploads.

      Same. Then I start chasing the queen down with the knights, and most people blunder it in under 10 moves.

    I've played hundreds of blitz games online at this point and it still urks me as a new player when someone pulls the queen out early, because it's sort of like running a 5k race against someone you consider your equal, and they start the race at a sprint. It's confusing, and you're suddenly not sure whether they're faster than you, or they're going to crash and burn. It can demolish your psychology around the situation.

    I think it would be interesting to have two intermediates play against each other. One of which you have taught those principles prior. You could use that to analyze the mistakes made and where the potential lied. Would be interesting to see I think.
