honestly, Levy's skill level is so much higher than his average viewer, he may as well be Magnus. It's like trying to fight a grizzly bear (magnus) or a Gorilla (Levy). A Grizzly could easily destroy a Gorilla... But to us, fighting either would be an impossible task and both opponents would feel like fighting God.

Bro didnt you see how smooth he slided the knight between the pieces at 1:32? Only a true master can do that!

Levy is far more animated (a good thing!) than somebody like Eric Rosen, who is more like the Mr. Rogers of chess. They are both accomplished players who are also outstanding teachers - but with completely different styles. If I had to compare them to comedians, I'd say Eric Rosen is Steven Wright whereas Levy Rozman is closer to Sam Kinison.

Thank you for visiting Gainesville! It was a great seminar and crazy to see you make your way here, keep up the great stuff Gotham!

You are amazing Levy! Thanks for the content! Keep it coming!!

He is so experienced and his life revolves around chess but for some reason he didn’t really try to make progress in that position, a pawn break, attack, nothing just bad defensive playing against someone that probably is not even 2000 he just took advantage of levy’s passiveness.

"The computer hates this move... but I hate the computer" no way he said that 💀💀

This was really instructive! I think we've all been in games where they just get a lock on your pawn breaks and you only way forward is a sac. Seeing when that window opens is a skill worth investing in. Whole Board Awareness might be worthy of its own Chessly drills? Thanks for sharing Levy!

Never show mercy to your opponent, bruh!

Levi knows well that the things he is afraid or embarrassed to say are the things that connect with us. Very entertaining!👏👏👏👏👏

I would love to see a new series of "Guess the elo irl".

thats why when you play chess, you go hard no matter what. you never know who youre playing bro..

I was impressed with Derek's composed demeanor. When I saw that - I knew he was no beginner. I thought to myself, "That guy has been behind a chess board before." I also got the impression that Derek was mostly trying to beat you on time - just creating an impenetrable fortress to frustrate you.

Derek never fails to put levy in his videos

Glad he swallowed his pride and shared his losses with us

Every one saying in the comments that Gotham is bad at chess, when they are probably 3 digits

love to see your games on this channel

Low key these games are so much fun to see a physical Levy and Subscribers! Pretty awesome recap. Wish you the best on the road to recovery, all in all, better to over-estimate than under. But at least you weren't going too hard on somebody rated 300.

he was going hard, he just played the wrong moves because he was anticipating beginner responses. This game was unfair as Levy was tricked into playing a different style that is more effective against beginners.

I troll people by telling them Im a grandmaster then playing like a beginner

I'm glad you had fun in Florida even if you did lose, and I'm very proud of you both for being a gracious player even in loss, and for seeking a re-match w/o ego or anger. Well played, sir! So when is the tour date for rural PA?

Woul be cool to see a video guide on this gambit variation of the french, it looks really interesting

Bro played the No-soliciting gambit

Every loss is an opportunity to sharpen skills, every fall an opportunity to stand stronger and wiser than before. Wins feed the ego but losses remind us the there is always further to travel, things to learn and remind us that it is more attractive to be humble in defeat than an overbearing winner consumed by their own ego. How boring life becomes when you run out of road. Keep trucking Levy, you're an excellent player, a brilliant commentator and more importantly a fine and eminently likable human being! ✌️
