I'm black in the second game. When i traded the bishop i calculated that i would get another piece from white. I think i missed that the knight could defend against the queen check and simultanously defend the bishop. If i saw that i wouldn't even play Nxe4 because i definetly didn't see d5 haha. Thanks for the reaction Levy. Was fun to watch :) Oh and i know i need work on my openings especially in the sicilian when and where to move the queen. I know it's essential to play Qc7, Qb6 or Qa5 in the right moments in the opening but i can't grasp when that is.

@@adrianmessow3448 The d5 move was after making that Horsey sac and before taking the rook with your bishop as pointed out by levy exactly at 9:34 the point of that move is to deflect the bishop from where its standing because the threat is to check black and win bishop but any knight block will defend bishop so if white bishop takes pawn d5. The line goes like what you did Bishop takes rook queen takes back after that queen can check on a4 then take white bishop. You are up a piece. And is clearly winning but becareful of dark square weaknesses on kingside cause u traded your bishop early. A fianchetto'd bishop shouldn't be traded early even for a rook. Only time a fianchettod bishop should be traded is if its the same colored bishop u are trading for. So yeah I don't really know what you are thinking but What do I know im just rated 1000 :

@phen-themoogle7651

2 жыл бұрын

Magnus Carlos a 2800+ player also blundered his rook recently xD But yeah it's still embarrassing an 1800 missed an obvious capture where the rook is literally right next to the king with no protection. Maybe it was trolling a bit thinking they were still winning and didn't take on purpose lol Once I checked a 2200 player with my queen and it was hanging could've been captured by their queen, they missed it ,and I captured their queen that became hanging lol They still had 20 seconds too. Players have good days and bad days for sure. After becoming 1800 I rarely hang my queen, but on rare occasions I do, and a lot of players have more trust for me to not hang a piece being above 1800, so sometimes you trust your opponent too much based on their rating, especially if you play many games where an 1800 wouldn't blunder something like that, it's kinda like reverse psychology.

To be fair, everyone misses mate in one levy especially in blitz or rapid...I could tell he was at least 1500 because he played the opening far better than I do as a 1300-1400. I've even seen hikaru miss mate in 1 with 2 or 3 minutes on the clock that I saw, it just happens sometimes

"You will not see me interact with any 8x8 entity ever" Joke's on you, international draughts is 10x10.

I love when Levy is like "I guarantee if you check the database this position has literally never happened, nothing makes sense here" while it looks like a typical game for me when I play rapid lmao

I just wanted to comment here because I am absolutely flabbergasted by how good of a teacher you are. This idea of guess the elo was completely genius, as i have learned so much more from watching this series than from any paid lessons or puzzles I have done. Just seeing all these games of different levels and explaining such high-level moves in simple ways, and constantly going out of your way to make the mistakes and blunders 10 times as funny, i just wanna say i love you, i have no idea how anyone can hate this series, and i hope it goes on till the end of time. thank you

I love how twitch chat is always guessing random ass shit, and then acts surprised when the actual rating is different from what Levy said. 'BROOOO HOW??!?!' buddy, you thought that was two actual lawn chairs playing far above your skill ceiling, sit down.
