13:37, it works in this case too right? rook to f1, if taken by enemy rook, queen takes rook and mate, but if king moves, same dovetail mate.
10:06 – not only way, Ne8
11:38 me, as a 500: next move, me take rook!
Levy: and you deliver checkmate
Me: … Oh
BOYYYYS. i just did a smothered mate the first time!!!
just like how levi mentioned.
FREKIN HELLFEELSSOGOOOD
I love your MMA references
i love gary
brugh i can be dominating and always stalemate
These make perfect sense in the video, but idk how to apply them to my actual games 😵💫
4:24 Fool! Always take the queen over checkmate! Can’t make best move if you win the game. 😑
12:38 “I don’t know why this is called a Dovetail Mate”, immediately draws the dovetail after. 😂
super sicilian defense
What if the king goes to the 6th rank? 6:53
17:08 my 900 blitz rated instinct telling me to take the rook
The term boomerang goes far back. Fisher used it to beat a NM.
The "in your face you're trash my rook defeated you mate" is called Vukovic mate
You're welcome
3:28 arabian mate
7:28 bomarang
18:20 smothered mate
Rip knight getting move
We love you Levy ❤❤❤
@17:48
I'd eat the queen a hundred times in this scenario. I need to learn to be patient
One of the best videos on YouTube
nicr battery 6:04
The last smothered mate looks like a Greco’s mate
9:43 what about knight h5
Ima spam Gotham every night and become a gm🤷♂️⚒️
Bros majestic . Needs more subs
Chess is too hard I’ve lost almost 200 in 2 days well done to anyone who can play this game any longer than 1 year
Good old times when Gotham Chess made high-quality content instead of trolling videos that show off how 700-ELO players blunder.
You underestimate 700-800s, either a lot of people is cheating or the pandemic changed a lot the average level at this ELO.
10:07 Knight to e8. Knights do move backwards.
3:45 😂😂😂😂 best checkmate name ever
at 17:25 why cant we just sacrifice the queen and mate? Its faster and pretty much the same..
this is why Gotham Chess the GOAT of chess, fr.
hi
8:54 700 800 elo is a new player😢
Great video to learn how to checkmate in many ways
Thank you for the free coaching, I dropped a like (already subbed).
I did the boomerang technique before without watching
This comes over time as we are obliterated by our opponents and they show us.
Beware of Greeks bearing gifts.
At 10:03 on the g7 square, can’t you just move the black knight to h4? That way it attacks the queen aswell as protecting the g7 square? Or am I missing something
Thanks a lot ❤
Then he sacrificed the Queeeeeenn
yes levvy, evolve me chess player…please😂
Dope..
Just a theory here: the dovetail mate has possibly a common name due to a dovetail joint in carpentry. The cross connection makes sense
I’ve been hit by the hood ole Greek gift was not fun
The better you are, the harder it becomes
INYOURFACEYOURETRASHMYROOKDEFEATEDYOUCHECKMATE
6:18 Greek gift sacrifice amazing
Dovetail is pretty good too
Knight bishop clamp is ok
12:38 as a creative, literary person with a rich imagination: I think in the mating position (lol! fitting!) the queen is supposed to represent the "dove-tail" of the king, meaning that white's king is the "dove" and the queen becomes the dove's tail protected by the dove that delives the mate. Personally then I would find it more illustrative and fitting to call it the "peacock's tail" then but alas: they don't invite me to the committee that comes up with and decides on titles for moves, tactics and strategies in check! ♟😜
