  • As someone in the 1550 range, I think your point about this level just playing solidly is spot on. The difference, though, is when higher rated players start taking risks, it's that they know how to unbalance a position while not blundering. This can throw or level into mistakes that'll cost us the game.
  • After finding your channel, you got me back into chess after more than 10 years. Big thank you!
  • @Tiguiso
    We need more content for us 1500+ folks trying to improve our game. This is just fantastic! Thanks gotham!
  • As a 1400 - 1600 I learned a lot from this video. What I do well and what I do poorly. I never comment or like anything. But felt compelled to say thank you for the informative content.
  • I would love it if you continued this series. I've really learned a lot from this
  • The first guy is going to remember his draw for the rest of his life
  • @spytrek
    And here I am with 2000+ rating, totally enjoying watching the last game and going wtf about the havoc black almost created on the white king. Looking forward to watching the 2000 elo episode when it comes out
  • That last London game was SO educational for me. Playing with my friends, we're all between 900 and 1300 and the problem with me and my prep is they do either aggressive moves that messes up my setup or they do unorthodox moves that put me in a bind. Thank you for playing the London and for this series. I am going to rewatch that game a few times to learn a few things.
  • I don’t usually comment, but this was a great video. These games felt so familiar to what my games look like. I’ve decided to take the plunge and get the Intermediate bootcamp course - first chess course I’ve ever purchased at 31 years old. I just play for fun but I’d still like to improve. Thanks for the code
  • @RyanW1019
    I saw someone suggest a new series called Guess the Eval in the comments of another one of your videos, where the idea is subs send you positions from their games and you have to try to guess the Stockfish evaluation of the position. I think that would be cool if you are looking for new ideas.
  • 3:59 "Against queen's pawn it's hard to create crazy complications." Benoni says HI
  • as someone rated around 1600-1650, i think we are at the very top end of this sort of intermediate range. advanced players still can consistently beat us because of their prep and tactics, but we are past the point of blundering anything serious and i feel right around 1600-1700 is where the game really goes from intermediate to advanced. can’t wait for your advice on how to beat 1700-1900s 👍🏼

    21:42 This is one of the most important lessons in the video imo. It shows why it's important for players to understand how to both play aggressively w/ the initiative, and solidly w/ emphasis on making principled moves. As someone who has been on both ends of the style spectrum, I can confirm that those skill ceilings are very real when you're too biased and inflexible towards a particular way of playing.
  • Levy is disguising his own moves by making them 1500 😂 loving the content! It’s very instructional and easy to follow.
  • game 1, after Levi explains why to not put 2 bishops on the same rank due to his Rook X-raying 2 bishops, he puts his own two bishops on the second rank where the opponent could X-ray them with his rook
  • The first oponent played really well in his rating, without making real mistakes he's going to get a lot more rating, just based on the oponent mistakes, if he keeps playing like that that is
  • @ 49:24 I have seen Nakamura play the same position as black in a blitz game many times. His aim was to target pieces in front of your short-castled king. Then go for an easy end-game. Lower rated players fell for the trap most.
