Love these. I was talking about your channel while playing in Central Park today (the tables that Lincoln has set up on the Literary Walk), and one of the younger guys said he studied with you. I am just getting into chess again in my 40s. To be able to easily participate in an irl social aspect makes it so much more fun than just futzing away online. Thank you for making these videos. I tune in daily now.

I love the format of explaining the though process

This very match made me realize the boundary between a grand master and elo 2000 - 3000

I love these collabs with other streamers

Great video Levy! Very fun and instructive!

Super walk through after the game. It helps enormously to see how you ended up in that position.

WE FINALLY KNOW WHO WAS IN PARIS

Congrats on reaching 3,500,000 Elo Mr. Rook!

"oh no im getting rooked!' this made my day

That "Paris is better than New York" thing got me. I was thinking, "it damn well better be, they've had over 1000 years head start."

That last move from her was a mouse slip, shoulda went easy on her 😂

*On the topic of online vs over-the-board:* It's crazy tbh. I've played the first 6 months exclusively online and when I went otb, I felt like I lost 500 elo points. It's not as bad anymore, but still, I'm way better online on a digital board, because of the visual clarity compred to otb.
