at 27:39 there is no mate if white plays queen to d2, he resigned but had a chance to survive or even win
Bro, it takes me like 8 hours to watch through your video and I DID NOT FORGET the audacity of b4. How would anyone forget that?
On game 4 could white not move pawn to H4 then king to H2 after black promoted? I'm guessing it would still end in mate somehow but how?
White plays fork with knight
That opera game was mad. Sacrifices everything for a win
EN PASSENT IS FORCED, MCDONNELL CHEATED!
I hesitate to post this because you are so f-ing smart you probably were joking. But if you did happen to brainfreeze on this expression…."evergreen" just means the game that never gets old…."forever green" like spring grass. If I just stated the overly-obvious please don't hate ….big fan! My game has gone from horrendous to fair. So thanks (700 to 950 in 5 weeks…in my 50s).
I play hippo 🦛 and it’s way the best one if you know how 😛 90% of gain
people in the past seem to play like computers, just willing to sacrifice for the greater good
Watching this in 2026
Absolutely entertaining! Great games, and the one by Kasparov is incredible
great video but I think you should have included also Magnus vs Giri game where Magnus sacrificed the queen for 3 pieces, probably the best game I've seen
I just love watching him explain ideas behind their moves, Such enthusiasm and personal like he is playing himself
Ps, keeps me watching
Karpov should have moved that pawn way earlier…
I think this list is brilliant, but it's missing one more. The 17 pawn moves game shows the incredible power of solid pawn structures and taking space.
The Three pawn game is an insane game it's the best
2023
He sacrifices the ROOOOOOOOOKK!
"soon enough they will self destruct" I feel attacked
The second game is absolutely incredible. Black had the whole army, with the exception of the loss of just 3 pawns, while white had sacrificed both rooks, the queen and a bishop. e5 was crazy to find out. That's a game that really looked unreal. Wow

❤
Thank u gotham
In the fourth game after the pawn moved to f2, why couldn’t black make the move qe1? 26:28
10:03 “I had something go wrong in my browser” 🤨
I’m imagine Kasparov saying all this stuff that levy said in his head
These games are a wild ride from start to finish. Loved hearing about them. Instantly subscribed.
Ok. Botwinnik-Capablanca. Polugajevskji-Nezhmetdinov and Kasparow-Topalow must mentioned….😂
Wow those sacrifices are terrifying but somehow work
I NEED to study more of Anderssen's game WTF was game two???????
Zdigucrxxrssrstdtyseaaersh
I believe Bourdonnais would've just BMed and promoted to rook instead of queen
what about the gold coin one
Paul morphy went: oh no my queen
Sure, I'll highfive you Levy 😀
Ahh nope if those rats are in my house I’m burning the whole neighbourhood down
In the 4th game Qd2 and its not mate… And white could won…
I am never going to play kasparov ever but he scared me through the screen
You made Kasparov sound like a serial killer in that game LMAOO
16:31 thankyou
omg i fell in love at 7:48 "Immortal"
In 1970 I bought a book about chess. Right on the first page was the Opera game.
İmagine a knight who is worth more than a queen
Wow, salute the legend
🐙
Lots of smart
You are also named after pants 🙂
Octopus knight was my favourite bit. Love your videos. Thankyou.
The hooligan pawns had me laughing so hard!
