With due all respect levy your perspective is intermediate and not professional before anyone get fooled

Me: Analyses 20 moves of theory for one variation of one line
Opponent: Plays one different move
Me: And it was in this position, we have a completely new game

Alternate Title: “Levy Dunks on my Opening Repertoire”

@adityasundaram9299 4 years ago

This is actually super informative, but the thing is, and I've seen this with a few of my students when we're studying openings and how to play against them, at a lower ELO, people generally don't play moves that an experienced (2000+) player would consider normal. To that extent, while I can go on about what you should do when they play a normal move that any master level player would play, they may play something completely different, which usually confuses their opponents, whether or not the move may be good. I think you should explore this a bit more in your videos, but still, you're a super helpful coach and entertaining creator.

It’s absolutely so amazing that so many creators and influencers a supporting team Seas. I have zero doubt that the goal will be reached and it will be thanks to incredible people like Levy for sharing the message and spreading word of it’s importance. And thank you to anyone who donated.

Actually this Levy bluffing his next tournament opponents to destroy them

@ManuelMueller84 4 years ago

Hey Levy, I just saw you donated 10000 dollars to teamseas and wanted to leave a big thumbs up for that.

@sumath07 4 years ago

I play the grunfeld as black and the London is literally the most annoying opening in the world. It kills all the fun.

@erickne1906 4 years ago

I started playing chess like a 1 year ago, after a lifetime of only knowing the basic. I decided that I wanted to specialize in just 1 opening for each color, so I picked any random openings that was played in the next professional chess matches that I seen at the time, thinking that will lead to opening with room to improvement. That lead me to focus in Ruy Lopez and Sicilian defense ... I deeply regret it.
