    Well its sorta like how you've driven around your city all your life. So you know and can visualize the streets and where something is just by memory. Levy has been playing his whole life. Hes pretty much seen it all. Making a move on a chess board is to levy as making the right turn into your job is to you. It just is, you know where to turn because youve been there before.

    The streamers discussing their strategy (starting from 0:56) made me think of a story mentioned in Tim Krabbé's 'A love story with a diagram': 'A grandmaster once played a 10-board blind simul somewhere. Knowing the ropes of blind simuls, he varied his games right from the start, maybe opening two with 1.e4, two with 1.d4, one with 1.b3, and so on. To his suprise, all of his opponents played 1...b6. On the second move, five of them played 2...Bb7, and the other five 2...Ba6. On the third, three of the five players who had played 2...Bb7 now played 3...Bc8 and the other two played 3...Ba6, while three of the five who had played 2...Ba6 now played 3...Bb7, and the other two 3...Bc8. On move 4, the grandmaster saw bishops everywhere. After move 5, he excused himself and went to the toilet where he was happy to find a window big enough to let him through.'
