    13:48 "I want you to pause the video..." * pauses video * Okay, what do I do now. Levy? Levy?
  • @moxxy3565
    Weird how you think the coordinates are "wonky" for white. It's the exact opposite for me.
  • @ValentineC137
    The hardest part in about this video was trying to say the Alphabet backwards
  • Visualisation in brief: Hikaru looking in the ceiling to think. Lol
  • @GothamChess
    Stoooop it at 14:30 I said “central squares” not some random f1/d1/c1 😂

    6:00 : So I tried to draw arrows, but my opponent stopped me saying it was bad for the chessboard
  • I'm a begginer and I've been playing chess for 2-3months. And I can proudly say that I can remember every move and the coordinates of each pieces from the Paul Morphy Opera Game, although it's only a 17 move game there still is room for improvement.

    I honestly can’t believe it, I was outside doing yard work when I had the thought “Damn, I need to get good at knowing the squares when I play” then I come inside and bam, a notification for this video. Insane.

    What a lovely Christmas present, two Gotham vids a day
  • @davidryal
    whoa that was creepy, i jumped ahead and he said "if you've jumped ahead here, welcome"
  • @strikerone475
    "What square does white control the most? It's a tough one." "D1 or C1?" "D5" - Levy "****"
  • @nikk-hk4pv
    Man is a walking chess content machine like he literally uploads like 4 times a day

    "Looking ahead in the future, changing the position in your mind and deciding whether to make a move or not" 5d chess vibes

    all i want for christmas is Chess Visualizing: How To Remember Squares
  • This guy is sincerely trying to help us master Chess. And Chess is a game worth mastering (not just learning). Let's thank him! Thank you, GothamChess!
  • @mrkowalczyk420
    Wait, you see black’s POV as the ‘normal’ way reading letters alphabetically right to left and counting down from top to bottom?! This has blown my mind.
  • @cnap1876
    Great video! I got over my last plateau in chess by improving board visualization and it’s crazy that just knowing the names of squares and saying them to yourself whilst playing stops you from dropping not only pieces but important pawns in your camp
