2:48 if pawn plays c4

4:53 if pawn plays c5
3:40 if they take the knight
4:59 take their c5 pawn if you are more advanced and set up a trap a few mins from here
6:00 joe london variation to start with. maybe don't need this
7:37 they play queen b6. protect your b2 pawn
9:45 when they leave lightsquare bishop near yours
11:30 don't trade dark bishop early. if they challenge it you move it back and hope they take you so you can settup that hikaru sequence

Just got into chess and I’m a 700 in rapid needed to come back here after playing a 85.7% accuracy game using the London system against a Frenchman who immediately accused me of using an engine. So thanks Levy much appreciated

[Nicolas-yydr]

Hey Levy, i'm taking advantage of being early in the hope that you will see this comment. I had never played chess before, but always felt like it's a game that i would enjoy, and i finally found a content creator which makes me enjoy it, that being you. Your videos are extremely entertaining, i've been griding them the past few weeks, thanks for all your work :)

[connorthomas]

My rating went up 100 points within a day of watching this. Thank you! You might not be a GM yet Levy but you are a far better teacher then a lot of other GMs.

[dupersuper]

I’m so glad I found this. Definitely a great opening. This helped me win a few games against a people above my rating recently. Thank you for the breakdown!

[juanizaguirre]

I just want to say, I have watched this video like 4 times in a row to study the theory. I have been KILLING it with the London since. Probably about a 75% rate when i use it.

You’re the bomb man!

[ashishfrancis]

This brings many memories I studied London opening from Gotham openings now this video is verry improved and super I love you sensie for teaching us a lot

[jacobskarby]

Me: I should study and finish my assignment in modules and homological algebra.
Gotham: *TRADE OFFER*

[carlrbannwart]

This opening has boosted my rating 150 pts in 2 days. Played queens gambit for years but adding this is my default and having the option to transpose has been fantastic. Solid video! Solid AF!

[Farren]

The problem with practicing is that your opponent never knows you're trying to practice and never complies with your plans to move that way.

[Sock]

Is this Levy's official break-up with r/AnarchyChess?

[gryphyne]

Just started playing seriously again and this really helped me in my 1st Tournament (LV Open, only one week prep) in 5 years. Really familiar with the Stonewall attack and this merged nicely with that background. Black, yeah, those games didn't fair so well, and I'll definitely be hitting those vids next. TY for all your doing.

[thomashawkins]

You’ve become so polished since I started watching (which was only around Queens Gambit time). Every video just keeps getting better, your work ethic is incredible and is influencing my own. Thanks for all you do Levy.

[Krish_krish]

Hey Levy, please could you continue your 'Easy Chess Endgames' series you started 8 months ago? People were super hyped for more videos but then they stopped. I'm loving this pure educational content again. Thanks!

[grahamwilliams]

I just smashed the 1600 computer opponent for the first time ever using this for the first time. It's so good!

[hnd]

At 5:45 after the pawn push, where's the discovered check?

[adamh]

I enjoy watching openings I know naught about. As a 1000 blitz, I’m still just working on my one white opening and two black responses to e4 and d4 respectively. I’m starting to notice similarities in ‘ideas’ that some openings share, and that’s a big deal to me. It means that even as man approaching 40, I’m capable of learning. To get to the bottom line, couldn’t be done without these guys like levy. I discovered chess on YouTube about 3 years ago and would like to give John Bartholomew a shoutout.

[rltsting]

Hey dude. Thank you so much for getting into the social media space. You have made studying chess so much more exciting/fun/interesting. Your charisma and wit makes me look forward to everything you put out. Thanks for being you dude…and I look forward to the day you capitalize as a GM.
