Turns out it's not stupidity - you just need to invest time, energy, like every hobby (for me it is). Today got my first ever win with a 400 robot by playing King's Indian - yeah I know, it's not much, but it's honest work. And certainly it was a huge dopamine hit for me.

@@adamfor5048 you should try playing rated games, from my experience bots elos are highly inflated, but also at the 1400-1600 bot elos (which play like a 1000-1200 real player), they no longer make simple one move blunders, and those bots are extremely resilient, they will defend incredibly well and wear you down, but real players aren't that resilient and make some mistakes bots wouldn't make, it's really fun

You might feel "messy" because of the closed nature of a lot of the positions and the weird development of your white bishop. I'm hyper aggro so I feel similarly but it does become aggressive, it just needs a little bit more patience than you (or I) might be used to. I find the more I play it, the more that awkward rotation works for me.
@alcibiades4716 3 жыл бұрын
A Croat guy called hanging pawns goes into better detail. There are some bad moves gotham chose for white while playing as black like the light bishop. I find it best to only choose to move a pawn on move 3, this allows castle on move 4 (exapmle 1.d4 Kf6 2. c4 h6 3. Kc3 Bg7 now decide if you should castle or go e6) then after ive pushed the pawn AND caslted because king saftey, i go a5 then Ka6 then Qe8 then push kingside pawns wherever possible. Then point of KI is usually to dimantle kings safter via an attack on his pawns protecting the king (usually the king is kingside castle)

By watching this video, and using only this opening, from a plateau of 900, I climbed to 1000 in one day and one sitting. That combination of the knight hiding the discovered attack from the "fianchettoed" bishop can be really useful. It felt amazing. Admittedly however, I seem to have dropped back down in one or two bad nights.

This one also relevant for me. This was a system I tried learning and using many years ago. One upon a time I had a book (actually, I still have it (c) 1975) by Larry Evans on the Reti system (which is similar, but not identical, I know). I need to get back to this and try it again some. I did always find it hard to decide what to do (how to attack) once I got the basic setup. I need to practice/try it of course.

This is the first opening I teach my students, because it’s so solid for new players. Development + king safety is perfect for the new players!

Coffee in the morning, mint “tea” at night. One cup of each. Life is about balance, after all. Is it not?
@kingfacundo 3 жыл бұрын
What about 5 cups and 5 cups. Still pretty balanced

This works out very well for me at the 1100 area. I've been CRUSHING people with this opening. This helps people who wants to try a unique opening + a very effective opening to start with at the 900+ area. Thanks Levy.

When you played Knight D2 to finish White's development, it really felt like I was watching a Hippopotamus defense 😅

I love coffee, but I can't do the caffeine. So it's 2-3 cups of herbal or spiced tea for me.

@besto5486 2 жыл бұрын
He does have a video of the dutch just as old as this one although i'd rather recommend a longer video because the dutch is a deeply theoretical opening but you will get a grasp of it which if is what you want, go ahead

About the coffee i like to drink one in the morning to just get me going you know and bout the tea i think i like to drink it sometimes but not daily thanks for the kings indian video i like you Levi bye
@garethoreilly3337 3 жыл бұрын
Thanks Levy, been trying to improve for the last year or so. Tried caro khan, sicilian, scandinavian... was still lucky to win 50%+. With Kings Indian I'm way up in the 70%+ if not 80%+. I have no idea why this system works for me but it does (especially just before the end game after trading knights and bishops seems to be where I always gain an advantage.). Could you do a video on the lines that might make it easier to understand WHY it works so well please?

Coffee, strong, black, about 5 - 8 a day depending on how my day is going. Great video's. I'm learning a lot.
@GlobusTheGreat 3 жыл бұрын
5-8 per day? You are consuming around 650 mg of caff per day? I'm concerned when I have like 3 cups of coffee with 2 heaping instant coffee spoons in each (instant coffee--heresy, I'm sure), but do you ever worry that you grow too dependent on caffeine with such a high rate of consumption? Does your tolerance become too much?
