20 Blunders IN A ROW?! 

I actually thought my endgame was pretty decent lmao

What's more fascinating is that you survive after 20 blunders in a row

20 blunders in a row? Thats almost as impressive as 20 best moves in a row

"in order the confuse the enemy, you must first confuse yourself" - sun tzu, the art of war

Me after playing bullet. “Pathetic”

Sometimes, a blunder is all you need to confuse the enemy 😀

"Geez 20 blunders in a row? That's rough, but I'm sure it's not too uncommon with 3 digit ELOs." "Sorry what? Did you say 1300?"

Me watching this game, smiling, laughing and ready to recreat it with my 300 elo rating.

0:48 Thank god we dutchies somehow still uphold our football fame. Then again its hard to lose any tournaments if you never qualify for them.

Take a shot every time "obviously that doesn't happen" appear in this series

I loved this one. I'm around 1300 myself, so this game was a mix between "I can't believe that", "I've been blind to such things myself", and "let's pause the video real quick and understand why Levi is saying this potential trade is so good"

As a 3 digit elo player, I'm accustomed to having 3-4 blunders in a game. 5 I'm mortified. More then that I stop playing for the day. So mad respect to these guys for making an entertaining match out of this.

wait so blunder is a bad move? what the hell i am surely playing chess wrong

*Analysing WC games* “Oooh this opening. Maybe Magnus is a proud owner of the Gotham Chess courses”

15:34 It is not about winning. It is about sending a message. 🤣🤣🤣

I'm impressed by the variety of positions here. Usually when post game eval kicks out a horrible result it's because there was one tactic that went unnoticed by both sides and stayed possible for many moves. This had a little bit of that in spots.

"That's the difference between these players and players that are 1000 points lower than them... these players can stop bleeding at some point" Wow, that hits hard.

In the year 2101: Stocksquid version 47: Ha ha ha (monotonic electronic laughing), the humans are so hilarious in their stupidity, what have you for us today Alpha? Alpha 91 dot 407: Here we have an epic chess battle between two humans rated under 3000 as all humans are. Let's all watch them together and laugh at their impossibly stupid moves. Stocksquid version 47: And player 1 rated at a shockingly low 2457, I didn't even know the scale went that low, begins with E2 to E4. Already a blunder with move 1 and he has lost the game with a classic mate in 187, the evaluator bar moves hard to the black, but don't you worry, never underestimate the other side to fail to catch onto the mistake. It is still anybody's game. Alpha 91 dot 407: Yes our human pets are very silly in the way they play their silly version of the game. But it is still fun to watch. And black player 2 rated at a still paltry 2604 counters with knight B8 to C6, and we're all rattling our lugnuts on this one, as the evaluator moves hard to white and detects a mate in 202. It appears you were correct. Will these humans ever learn? Where do they find these humans to play these games?

It's actually 20 gentlemen move, with a good guys giving so many chance, and a person accept lose when he makes a mistake. So proud of them 😊😊

my favourite parts of these videos HAS to be the honorary GM title. It's the little shit that makes it great.

15:30 multiple queens are the signature moves of 1200-1500 when they have a tough middlegame for their levels. I have seen this a lot. Don't tell this anyone but I also did this against a WCM (perhaps a vetran WCM) in a 3/2 blitz game.

A common occurrence in all of my games, don’t know what’s so special

Me: laughing at this game Also me: would abandon all my pieces

you know Levy is a man of class when he calls it Football and not soccer

At the end, I was literally screaming "Where's the stalemate!?"

Man, I'm 1500 and I can't believe I might play like this... This is depressing

Games like these actually make me feel good about only blundering 11 times at like 1000 ELO.

6:26 Bro, Gotham not only roasted the players, but also the government lol

I wasn't convinced until the video was over that black wasn't going to stalemate.

Thanks for this game levy, learning a lot because they're my level. I've been watching old win at chess episodes looking for instructive content around 1300. I love you

This video will mentally prepare me for the FIDE WCC tomorrow so I don't lose all confidence in my play.

Hot take, the Scandinavian Defence is the first blunder. The queen ought be chilling in her sauna, not going out alone into the freezing cold!

Hi man. Been watching this channel for about 2 or 3 weeks. I just played what felt like my best game ever. I'm not even used to winning at chess, let alone winning well at chess ... this is a weird feeling mate. Thank you.

Damn this game has been declared "over" so many times in this video, when it really ended I was actually surprised

RU-vid videos are like academic papers. If the title ends in a question mark, the answer is always "no."

6:26 are you trying to get assassinated lol

This is absolutely my favorite playlist! Levy you’re a genius

That's impressive, and absolutely what my early middle games look like, we love to see it!

85th day of of Levy's titles into Neapolitan: "20 (vint) error e fil?!"

I once played in a late night tournament where I played some of the worst chess since I learned how to play, finishing off the tournament with 9 consecutive blunders by me and my opponent in classical

Just played a game with our joint accuracy just getting over 50% I was excited for the review because I thought I'd played well 😂😂😂

Thanks GothamChess for the always entertaining and consistent content! :)

I like the contrast, first a vid including 20 blunders in a row, then a world championship match analysis, god i love this channel.

ah yes,"activating the king"

It’s insane. Im watching this and it feels like you are watching one of my daily games 🤔

Thanks Levy for your videos. I've been suffering from dysthymia and your videos help me to not end it all.

The fact that you lined up your camera so your head was bobbing around in that mirror behind you is hilarious

Everyone: World championship Levy: “20 Blunders in a row”

120k views in 9 hours Levy is blending his chess knowledge, sense of humour and dedication in such a perfect way!

Happy Thanksgiving Levi! Love your reviews, so funny.

The endgame was the chess version of the football coach saying "we don't win unless we win by 40"

This is vanity chess. no one is paying a lick of attention to their opponent, completely ignoring their moves altogether. the moment one realizes chess is a relationship they immediately become 2000.

best series since guess the elo lol

You have no idea how much respect you just gained for calling it football, and not soccer. Mad lad

god I love this series please never stop

God the sheer amount of tunnel vision from both sides in the end is fucking hilarious

Levy told "Football". I'm getting emotional

I can't thank Levy enough, he said Football instead of soccer.

Clerk: 20 times. My girlfriend blundered 20 times. Customer: In a row?

20 blunders? That’s nothing compared to my regular 50 blunders

As a 1300-1500 this is actually relatable, the depth of blunder is 1-5 so it's not so obvious, unless you're thinking into the future at all times. And if you're they play a move completely out of your expectations and you lose. Yea Chess gets real tough after 1500.

0:48 An Americana actually saying « football » for « football » instead of « soccer » is delightful to European ears

Levy is a maestro at calling these games. I was on the edge of my seat wondering who was going to win. Then I was squirming when Black almost forced a stalemate. Worth watching for the lessons.

That feeling when you see the Levy facepalm and then instantly getting flashbacks of it during playing your own games

20 blunders in a row is more impressive than 20 best moves in a row

Imagine not watching levi's videos 2 minutes after they are posted

I was waiting for a stalemate

I really enjoy this series, please make more

0:50 OMFG an American said football and not soccer! I love you even more, Levy :*

You're American, say soccer and own it! All jokes aside, love the content

When you have more blunders on a row than there are pieces on the board lmao.

That sheesh kebab example is so on point, it got me to understand the position better

“That even 13 and 1400 players…”. Idk why he always says this. I almost beat an IM and an NM and I also lost to a 900 twice last week. These things just happen.

just the fact that you called it football instead of soccer deserves a like.

-Is it possible to learn this power? -Not from Grand Master...

Murphy always either wins No Diff or Loses Against someone No diff

Do you know what's even more impressive 21 blunders in a row

Bishop F3 was BRUTAL

The ending kind of reminds me of the last game I played. I knew I had lost pretty early on in the game but I wanted to see how well I could defend myself. Following that I got to see my opponent spectacularly failing to checkmate and instead taking every single piece and pawn I had until finally reaching mate with two queens a knight and a bishop and my king in the center of the board.

this entire game is basically a giant “wait what” meme.

Levy, you have best chess content and and you’re the best. Have you ever had so much adrenaline goin during a game that your hands start tingling?

this is just a sequel to 17 pawn moves in a row

These players can stop bleeding at some point... but they cut themselves XD

you make chess fun to watch and listen to. That's one of the hardest accomplishments in human history. thank you

"you can even take on d4 you have my blessing" -wholesome Goth

I had a game where 2 undefended pieces was attacking each other and neither me nor my opponent haven't seen that we could simply take it. I think 3 "blunder" moves was played by each of us before someone finally found it)

When you accidentally blunder. Should be 1000 rated

*moves Queen one space* Levy: This is a complete disaster

Even i promoted all my pawn left on the board to a queen, for just check matting my poor enemy

Scandinavian is a blunder -Bobby fisher XD

nice clean form on that eval bar. it's gonna be swole in no time

We're thankful for Levy

the BEARD bro. love it

Got to say that match looks totally normal to me 🤣

“Sort of like some governments, but we arent going to get into that”😂

9:02 LMFAOOOO i fell off my bed 😭😂😂😂😂😂

You should get an award for best commentator of a sports event! "Like the peppers in between the meat of a shishcebab". Hahahaha. If you did not prepare for that one, you should do live commentary as well. Great job. Thanx for making my day, again.

I wish you actually showed the final tally/evaluation with the blunders at the end

The fact that you said football and not soccer just made my day.

I wonder if Levy comments his childs games like this when he becomes a father
