Memorization is an integral part of chess, if you don't like it, don't expect to get better.

"The King and his eight Pawns", a truly amazing quote in my opinion. ❤

I actually found this commentary very instructive, I learned a lot

Fepper deserved a draw for playing good and even sacrificing his knight and winning all the enemy pawns.Fawaz to for letting his rook and bishop survive and not geting overran by pawns

Levy's the type of guy that when he comes into class 12 minutes late and the teacher asks him what the correct answer is, he gets it completely accidentally correct.

Title should be "Gotham losing his mind for 24 Minutes straight"

"If you change a word in that name, it would mean something totally different". Yeah, imagine if instead of Fepper, their name was Magnus.

That game is like watching an 80's horror movie. Everyone watching is yelling nooooooooo!, but they people still walk into the bad situation and end up dead.

the universe was so disgusted with both of these fools it couldnt suffer either of them to win

You are INCREDIBLE at improvising metaphors. Amazing job, great to see you doing well :)

I was really sceptical when he said the end would be movie-like, but in the last 5min I increasingly started laughing when finally the stalemate absolutely finished me off 😂

I liked this episode of how to lose at chess, because it wasn't the standard fare of both sides just blundering a dozen pieces (although there was a bit of that) it was more big positional mistakes than anything. It makes for a much more entertaining game.

So basically this guy sacraficed his whole army to become a dead corpse, incredible stuff.

"You got multiple mating ideas." ~ GothamChess 2023

HOLYMOLY, you are a great story teller. I had goosebumps in the endgame. How beautiful. No wonder so many people watch you instead of official chess games, the Drama!

Gotham asking for a patch on a 1500+ year old game will never not be hilarious 😂😂😂

What a storybook finish. A miraculous display of courage by the 8 surviving pawns. The leadership of the white King, taking initiative and walking up the board, all while sacrificing the same 8 pawns sworn to protect him with their lives! Then we reach the climax of the story my good friends..and all we are left with is the very same sense of regret and the bitterness left on the tongue of Black, who had all the advantage and gave it all away, to those brave few pawns who stood in opposition to the regime. The melancholic feeling of relief and disappointment, no winners or losers; a stalemate of the ages. A masterpiece encapsulated in time for us to forever remember. Bravo i say, Bravo. 👏 👏

in the starting of the middlegame, white should've used the knight to a4 and then to b6, forking the bishop and rook.

Gotham turning into cartman towards the end. What a game.

in the opening, queen h5 followed by knight f7 was a triple fork that couldn't be taken due to the queen, so actually before developing the knight f7, the gotham sub should've instead placed the queen to f7 and then used the triple fork, allowing for more material than a fork.

Each how to lose at chess video is a psychological thriller with hints of comedy
