400's are the most sportsmanlike gentlemen in all of chess. If either player gets any kind of advantage, be it very slight or absolutely gigantic, they always make sure to give it back immediately. They truly understand the spirit maybe not of chess, but of playing a game.
Maybe winning were the pieces we sacrificed along the way.
I'm laughing at how accurate this is
As a 300, this inspires me. Hopefully I can be that good one day.
You win the comments section today my friend
Honestly, I think 400s usually play better than this so you’re probably better than you think lol.

You can’t play 400 moves in one game because there are only 30 pieces on the board so the maximum number of moves you can play =30x50 = 150 because of the 50 move rule

Its truly a miracle from the chess gods that White somehow didn't stalemate with 2 Queens and a Rook
Yeah, He should have promoted that second pawn into a rook, just to be safe
That's why you promote to Rooks, easier to avoid stalemate. My record so far is 4 rooks at once (all promoted)

@@cheeselordthe11th47 I once played in a tournament with mostly 600-1000s where someone tried to punch the official in the face after being disqualified for poor sportsmanship because instead of going for mate, they took all of their opponent's remaining pieces and pawns, then promoted pawns till they had 8 knights, fed all of their non-knight pieces to the lone enemy king, and mated with the knights.

I'm 400. Last week I blundered away my queen in the first four moves. By the end of the game he only had his king but I had a queen (from pawn) two Bishops, and a couple pawns. But then I stalemated. Ive learned that never giving up pays off.

I kind of had a game like this yesterday which reminds me why I WAS still only 670. Having fallen for the oldest trick in the book with the fast bishop with queen checkmate because I wasn’t concentrating and thought I’d try something different, I was still thinking about my last game and ended up making a mess in a game like this that I should have won. You get a lot of this down at 600 so a lot of my wins tend to be come back wins as I get attacked early but usually don’t worry because often those strategies create weaknesses for themselves if I can carefully navigate through without losing more pieces than I have to (eg accept I’ve lost my bishop and take a pawn just to further weaken them when I’m trapped). Eventually my defence is ok but they’ve left their king vulnerable and spaces I can exploit later (if I get that far 😂).
As a 400 elo player, my biggest problem is trying to do quick moves instead of stopping to look for a move

The fact that Anil avoided stalemate at the end is the most surprising thing among all. Guys, the Italian pogchamps 2 days ago featured one of the greatest low elo games of all time
which one are you talking about
I didn't know there was an Italian pogchamps. I am glad it exists!
Levy is such a great story teller, he’s really making chess exciting for the average person
I'm really sad that in hungary we don't have theme parks, but fortunately Levy regularly puts me onto an emotional rollercoaster
One thing I really like about low elo games is that at any given moment, the match can end in a stalemate, it always keeps that thought in the back of your mind of "when will it happen?"
Crazy that you have no maidens! 😂😂
I was so waiting for a stalemate at the end because as levy says 400s somehow find a way to make the game equal 😂
Great vid 👌 But could you probably make a video about the berlin defense Because i am searching for a e4 counter play and you and hikaru said in your tierlist that its the best answer

The greatest plot twist in this video was that it didn't end in stalemate.
for 400s they actually found some good tactics
The discovered check tactic was insane for someone under 1000. Although white just missed mate in 1 and black hung a queen for no apparent reason.
As 190 rated chess player, I can confirm I saw the queen check from somewhere around 9:00, 1700 moves into the past.

17:58 I love that chuckle. Hilarious stuff
As a youth like you Levi, I was small in stature and that didn't bode well in a tough Mississippi River town. I got tired of being pounded so I started to fight back and got good at it. Later, after a career that included bar fights and brawls with opposing gangs, in the early 1960's, I discovered a group in the lower Eastside of Manhattan called the Catholic Worker Movement and met a fine women named Dorthy Day and a bunch of other dedicated individuals. It was there I learned about non-violence in the search of Justice, and my fighting career took an abrupt turn. A decade ago I returned to playing chess after a 50 years of doing a lot of other things, and am enjoying the "brawling" aspect...aware that I need some work on the finer points. I check in with you most every day, and very much enjoy your open mindedness and enthusiasm. So thanks for your commentary and my plans are to sign up for your middle game course when my schedule lightens a bit.

I wanted to say first that I love the videos and keep it up but secondly to bring up an idea for a video. What about doing a Réti opening (not the classic) where you instantly return to G1 for white’s second move. I’ve ran this through the chess engine and the most advantage it ends up giving (on depth 25) is -1.1. Is this usable in games? I’m going to go try it out myself cause my rating is poor anyways (1100) but wondered if you had any thoughts or if you thought it was interesting if you’d want to make a video out of it.
Call it the Réti reclined
Blundering every move is like purposefully answering every question wrong on a test, it requires pure genius
