In Christian Hesse's book "The Joys of Chess, " there is a chapter entitled, "The worst of the worst." He writes, "Theoretically, the worst worst move must be one that overlooks mate in one and at the same time directly allows the opponent to mate in one. That must have happened in the history of chess, though we cannot immediately think of an example." Congratulations for finding not only an example of such a move, but one that *forces* the opponent to mate in one!

He had mate in one but decided to give forced mate in one to is opponent. That's the best gentleman move in history.

[natebozeman]

Multiple missed mates and forces his opponent to mate him in one. Honestly impressive.

[newpgaston]

When I saw that title I thought "No way, I'm sure I've played worse moves than whatever this is", but yeah, I don't think I've ever forced my opponent to win the game by making his only legal move 'checkmating me'.

[joelapps]

"Not only did you get mated, you FORCED mate in one" bruh I laughed so hard. But Cheeky, thanks man, you're a great sport for allowing Levy to recap this!

5:00 "if white takes with bishop they should legitimately never play another game of chess for the rest of their life"...
You got a point there. They certainly found a better use for it.

[trattoretrattore]

"Forced checkmate in 1."

It is beautiful.

[joseph_soseph]

There is no way to play a worse move. Going from the best possible position for yourself to the worst possible in one single move is just spectacular

[garyskeel]

Title is absolutely not clickbait. Not only did we have a missed mate, but literally created a situation where the opponents only legal move on the board was to win the game. Wouldn’t have believed it was possible until this video. Amazing content, and absolutely the gentleman of the year. Forcing your opponent to victory, whether they like it or not.

B: I found checkmate, the game is over
WK: We won, right?
B: g2
WK: We won... right?

[thinh]

i’ve never seen such a move called “forced checkmate” in my life 😂

[tony]

Guys the title isn't clickbait - signing on for a crypto sponsorship is the worst move in chess history.

[augustinesia]

I've never seen something like this before. Forcing your opponent to force mate you, absolutely crazy.

[DanielGN]

Cheeky was like "No. YOU win!" What a great game.

[jabloko]

This literally cannot be worse. Going from 1 move checkmate to FORCED checkmate by your opponent in 1. It cannot be worse than this. It's not possible.

The annotations in chess are: ?, ?!, !?, ?? etc.
The annotation for this move is: ???XD

[nothing]

You would think this is clickbait but objectively there is no possible way to make a worse move in a game

[digiscream]

Can we just give Cheeky a round of applause for putting this out there for over a million people to learn from?

You, sir, are a magnificent bastard. Never change.

[feierlord]

That is THE MOST incredible blunder I have ever seen.

[asca_]

i can’t help but feel there has been an amateur OTB game that ended with one player “winning” by checkmate and the other player fails to find their only legal move out

Ah, good to see Levy also spent what is now $2.8 million worth of bitcoin on Molly from the silk road. Hahaha, I wanna die.
