It's like a teacher retiring. You can't retire Levy, and leave us students behind. You taught me so much.
I gained back my interest to chess in mid 2020. I forgot the rules, heh, I even forgot how to use en passant. I asked my dad to teach me, but I didn't understand that well. Then I came across your videos. Everything changed. I started watching and studying chess on your channel for hours in my room. I then joined a chess club in my school, and a chess school. It was amazing, everybody was using the famous "and he sacrifices... THE ROOKKKKK". I am glad to find people who I can fit in their interests. We went to tournaments, championships and competitions. We didn't really care about the prizes, we mostly cared that we had our friends there.
Well Levy, here I am. Sacrificing the rooks and beating pawns.
Beating pawns? 🤔

I 100% anticipated a stalemate here, which really made this end so much more epic. Thank you Gotham for sharing this game and also fudge you for sharing this game. It made my day and ruined my day at the same time.
Yeah Bittersweet
i love fudge omg
You can't retire, you inspired almost my entire school to play chess. I believe you've inspired many others too, if you leave then the chess community will never be the same.
He was joking
Please don't leave us Levy! Your sense of humor has kept me playing chess.
It’s a joke
My jaw DROPPED from that ending. Was not expecting that.
same
Literally the same !!
White screwed everythin up
White should be deleted from Earth for such disrespect towards his opponent. That was simply evil.
that's why he deserved the loss
I had a friend recently pass away. He loved chess and while I watched you before ever since his death your chess videos bring back a little part of him. Thank you for uploading these videos they do so much for me even though I remain in the literal double digits
Sorry for your loss
your gonna make him stay, dont
He probably came back to life after seeing this video.
(Sorry)
I'm sorry for your loss m8...
If you write your Elo as 0090 maybe it can count as 4 digits!
20:24 bro sounds like Walter White 💀
OMOG SO TRUE
Levy should get an honorary grandmaster title for sitting through this torture
The set-up, plot twist and the delivery were all spot on! 10/10 episode
Not only was this extremely entertaining but at the end I literally laughed harder than I’ve laughed in a while, I think the only reason it hit me so hard was because of the setup and delivery hahaha so awesome
Such a good entertainer Levi is
Almost agree. A bit disrespectful to the subscribers though. Apparently many subscribers actually seem to believe there is a risk that Levi is quitting. If he quits it will for sure not be because of a single random game between two low ELO players.
Then again, I believe Levi knows that most subscriber know that he knows they know this is just part of the show; therefore, all is good.
Apart from that, the game was very educational. Actually, a British GM (he is not the King of Chess on UA-cam) made a good video around forced stalemates, which can be a nice tactic in games which seem to be lost already.
@@ayeidoucareau5014 lmao
why does this feel like an npc comment thread
I was dealing with the loss of my Mom a year and a half ago right around the time I re-discovered chess. It was such a positive distraction in between the times I was working through things. Back then I was rated 600 and had a life goal of making it to 1000. I'm so happy to say that, largely due to learning about the game from gotham chess videos, I am now rated 1240! Thanks for everything you do Levy
I hope you're doing alright

No one asked bro
Levy, the Win At Chess series was the first piece of chess content I'd ever seen that made me want to study theory, memorize lines, and really focus on becoming a serious player. Very grateful for all that you do!
I went from 500-600 (learned the rules and played a few games as a kid), to 1300 in 6 months despite being 29yo and it was partly thanks to your content :) you've taught me some really useful principles and made the idea of learning openings seem a lot less dry & daunting and more like they're different fun worlds to explore and get to know
1540 2 months later!
Keep going you'll be gm soon
Dang, can you give me tips xD
I just started playing last month and I'm just not able to get above 600
Please, Gotham, keep making these posts. You've made my UA-cam time so much better. Do not retire. We love you.
Don't worry, kid. Dude has no follow through.

No, pls do, it would be funny.

LEVY pls DONT quit bro you’ve seen so many bad games as bad as this maybe even worse but a lot of people look up to u to teach some chess openings and stuff so PLS don’t quit

This felt so weird because he kept saying my name
like this up guys lmao
The legend himself is here!
How are you feeling after winning this game?
I was so concerned during Gotham's opening statement but what a brilliant way to capture the viewer's attention 😂
Right? I thought he posted a video where he said the "N-word" or the "F-word" for gay peeps out loud... Not the case. Turns out he is still a decent human being with real concerns about amazing chess play.
I just started my chess journey not too long ago and I can not describe what I just witnessed, an absolute masterpiece 😭
please dont quit, i love your videos and everything that you do. you are so funny and charming in a way that i cant get enough of it. i cant imagine a world without gothamchess
I was fully expecting a stalemate, laughed out loud when black checkmated! Greatest comeback ever!
and white's gratest downfall haha
I've been on the brink of not having any fun with games until your channel came out. It was my turning point to enjoying the game for the last 2 years. Please don't stop making your videos.
You smell like my left foot.
I was away from Chess for almost 5 years, and now by seeing your videos I’m coming back, thanks to your magnificent way of delivering always interesting facts and making this game amazing for so many people. You where completely right I never expected a check mate! I mean, never ever! Please don’t stop making videos for us all!
That finish was absolutely beautiful. Instant karma at its finest.
I’ve been playing chess for 7 years, I would sit on the living room floor and play chess with my older brother. We were each about the same skill so we were very competitive. As time went on we got better. My dad who taught us how to play, seemed like a GM in our little eyes. January 2023, I met Gotham. He was a perfect mix of humor and seriousness, great for a chess youtuber. I watch every video he posts and enjoy everyone of them. Don’t retire Gotham, for all of our sakes. There’s a reason why you won Chess Streamer of the Year. We love you! ❤️
I used to play chess against my grandpa when I was a kid, but stopped for a while because it had never truly captured my interest. I got one of your videos recommended to me a couple years ago and your enthusiasm for chess drew me back to chess and ignited my desire to get better, compete and through it also cherish the memory of my grandpa. Thank you Levy!
You captured my interest...
With check.
Stay strong Levy... you don't need to retire just because a bad chess game you saw.
Levy, Im so sorry you had to witness that madness, please dont quit, we all love u man, stay strong!
Got back into chess from my childhood due to the Queen’s gambit show. You kept my interest in chess alive, probably my favorite youtuber out there, your witty cynicism and confidence in yourself is inspiring. Watching your videos pushes me to play better in chess and other things in life too. especially love bits of personal stories and life sprinkled into each of your videos that somehow relate back to chess. thanks for being a great teacher
that's exactly how I got back into chess. Queen's gambit ---> Gotham ----> THE ROOOOOK!!!!
Levy is the only reason I’m even a little good at chess
Bro tchill it's not that deep lmao
That was the absolute most unexpected ending to a chess game I've ever seen.
Don't retire! Your videos make me feel better about my chess where I'm still learning to make good sacrifices 😅
I did see this coming only because you said I wouldnt see it coming
Skipped ahead to Levy scolding me for skipping ahead.
Started playing chess as a kid and my first victory against my dad made me feel like a champion. You've reignited my love for chess and i get better everyday! Thanks for entertaining us and for making such good videos consistently. Strength to you! We love you Levy!
I remember my first win against my dad, I felt like I owned the world and nobody could stop me. But then I saw Gotham play and realized I sucked
I was 0-6 versus my dad then watched a Gotham Chess opening video and practiced a little bit destroyed my dad
I still havent beaten my dad😭😭
@@mihaistoichescu9745 watch gothams instructional videos
I just recently beat my Mum at chess for the first time. She’s 81 years old, I’m 53. Talk about a sharp mind!
I feel bad for the people that didn’t stick around until the very end. This is one of the greatest “underdog / back against the wall” stories ever seen.
We wouldn’t know what to do without you, Levy! Please don’t leave us :)
I was 630 Elo but then quit chess because I had school exams (I'm 12 btw) I came back to chess and I sucked very badly, I fell back to 490 but then I grinded in 1 month and I'm happy to say I reached 710.
I though i was abouta be hit by the "I didn't know she was 12"

Fact
True
I swear Levy had me the whole time. When he said you are not going to expect the end while I was expecting stalemate. And the end had my jaw dropping as Levy said I told ya you weren’t expecting this. I just applauded to that man and said damn you were right Levy. Hilarious stuff 😂
Same here
Wow! I didn't ever expect to see what I saw at the end! Poetic justice! Love your content, man! You're a great teacher with a wonderful sense of weaving tales with suspense and plot twists as you comment on the games! Thank you, sir!
I am so sorry you had to witness this, we are all in this together.
I learned the rules of chess at a very early age like 4 or 5. However i did not play that much until last year, as chess didn't really seem that fun compared to other videogames. Your videos has made chess fun again, while also being incredibly instructive. By watching your content for the past yesr has my elo gone from 600 to 1200. Your humor has has helped me and millions of other people during bad days or tough times. Please do not stop with what you are doing, your content spreads positivity and makes the world a happier and better place.

same here! For a while, my computer scientist brain was like "it's a zero-sum game, I don't see what all the fuss is about", but then I met mittens... *shudder*
Yeah i agree YOU rock gotham
I admit, I definitely expected a stalemate. Levy knows us so well. 😂
i started chess a couple months ago now i watch your videos pretty much everyday dont retire man

Played chess very casually in highschool. Now 7 years later it’s thanks to your videos, the fun ones and the educational ones, that Im learning to love chess all over again. Thanks Levy❤
I used to be a 300 until I started watching your videos now I am 1000 and currently pushing
Before I started watching your videos I was probably around 1100 CFC the Vienna Opening and several others later, and a solid understanding of middle game ideas I still can play a bad game of blitz, but every now and then I beat 2000 rated blitz players and my Lichess rating is a solid 1600+ ish. And I absolutely hate loosing by making dumb moves, so I appreciate your own journey and struggles to master the game. I keep coming back to this channel for inspiration. Thank you for the dry humour and all the chess advice. God bless.
Levy you're a legend in the chess community, you've brought so many people into the beauty of chess, you've made countless people laugh, smile, brighten their days even, You've educated people for better chess moves/openings/fun stuff!

And he sacrificed the GAMEEEEEEEEE
All my brain juice just evaporated.
Bro dont retire we all love Ur vids and it would be sad for all of us
I was 800 just a month or 2 ago, I started paying more attention to your videos and learnt a tiny bit of opening theory for white (some italian, vienna) and balck (mainly caro) and I'm aiming for 1200 now as I'm like 1130 rn and Im beating quite a lot of 1200-1300s in 20 minute games
bro we are literally the same other than i play king's indian with black. I was also 800 around 2-3 months ago and now 1,127
i was 500 when i started watching gotham and i got to 1000 2 weeks after
@akash gomes nah mate you dont, I was like you for a while and then my rating just shot up, playing longer games less often also helped as it gave me time to think and actually improve.

i was 400 a few months ago but i started playing chess since 2019 and retired because i got bored and then i picked up the game again after 2 years because it was a craze and i started playing and learning from my dad and i learned alot of openings from you for white i learned the ponzianni, vienna, italian, etc.. and for black the dutch and caro and queens gambit now im 614 elo and still continuing my journey pls do not quit you helped alot of people in chess and u can help more
I love it. Revenge for all the times my opponent started just making queens with m1 on the board
Years back, while working at a pub with my trademark 'mum-haircut', a stylish Italian barber showed up. He called me a schmuck and offered a free haircut if I played him in 3 chess games. With little experience in both chess and haircuts, I accepted. For 3 years, I got crushed every week, but I kept coming back for the fresh skin fade. Now, I win most games and look sharp doing it! Moral of the story? Sacrifice a few chess games to look your best. Love you, Levy! xo
ahhh, the old mum cuts 😅😝🥰
this is cute
I started playing with my older brother as a kid, who always defeated me. After Queen's Gambit, I rediscovered your channel and I got a reignited spark to play chess. From 400 a couple years ago, I am now averaging at 1380-1390 (occasionally hitting 1405). Dont quit, Levy. You are an inspiration.

First learned chess when I was around 5 from my Grandfather. Only started playing seriously 3 years ago when I followed in his footsteps and joined the military. He’s passed away now, but every time I play I can feel close to him, and almost hear his voice telling my 5-year-old self telling me that a bishop can’t move that way. Love you papa
dont quit gotham, videos like this is the reason you should keep going, you inspire others, for example frank who went from 200 elo to 800
Even a 400 elo guy could not be this greedy
