  1. Been playing a lot of this against the English and I have like 50% win rate, which I think is really good for the ditch and for black

  2. New video on the Dutch please? I think it needs to go more in-depth than this video did.

  3. Everyone is so fast in these moves… like 4 moves in 1 sec and I'm like.. what…

  4. Do I still play Dutch when white plays The Reti opening?

  5. What to do if they play something which i didnt rewiew in my studies?For example,we are deep in the openings and in the 5th 6th move they play something never happened before

  6. For the dutch defense leningrad variation what vid should i watch as theres so many ppl who made videos

  7. I don't see how Levy is so much more popular than Daniel Naroditsky. Dani's teaching is 1000x better.

  8. Why wouldn't you take the second pawn in the gambit? If retakes, wouldn't white just regain central control? And then just have the threat of e5 to kick the knight?

  9. Classical dutch and stonewall dutch are the only openings i play 🇳🇱

  10. how do you learn these openings? i understand what you say but i cant remember it when i gotta play

  11. We have been scammed, video is only 7 mins.

  12. I'm Dutch so i'm obligated to play the Dutch -_-

  13. Correction the thumbnail says 10 munite but it's 7 munite and 1 second you're welcome

  14. 3:17
    took me a few seconds to realize that this position is literally just the blackmar diemer, but black took with the f pawn instead of the d pawn

  15. Can you explain this in a more clear way? For people who have never used many or any openings before

  16. Yikes! I have a ways to go with my openings, but playing f5 makes me feel a draft like I have ripped a big hole in the back of my pants. Closing that diagonal has a similar sense of urgency for me, I'm sure I'm not the only one. I'll learn the main lines, but it's not going to make my top 5. I definitely like the French better and the Czech seems promising as well, some late intermediate players I know are having success with the English for Black. And there is the mighty Caro-Kann and Sicilian for a later day.

  17. So 3:14 queen h5 then bishop e2 and the dutch is kinda dying

  18. I know caro-kann and dutch now. It's good to know defence against queen pawn

  19. The only problem with the Dutch Defence is that you need more MONEY

  20. Thank you so much for these videos. These are amazing. Your teaching style seems to agree with me and that's the best. Love these openings videos. I never have a clue when playing.

  21. You know, I see a lot of constructive conversation about the topic, along with many chess related questions for the presenter. But what I don't see much of is discussion about fruit. The man asked you all a question. Bananas, Levy. Bananas.

  22. I know I’m late but mango and kiwi are the goat and boat respectively

  23. This is the first video I watched of yours over a year ago. I apologize that it is at least my 3rd time watching it before liking it.

  24. I'm only here because of red Dead Redemption 2, thanks.

  25. hey i was wondering if anyone knew if there was a way to play the dutch against e4, because i really like this opening but i see e4 in like 80% of my games and my only backup is scandinavian and i dont like playing it anymore. if you know if theres a way to play the dutch against e4 please comment and let me know

  26. GothamChess: Do Vienna , Caro Kaan and Dutch
    Me: Plays
    Me Now: Bad Openings I will do the English , King's Indian Defense , Anti-London and Najdorf Sicilian

  27. Austin Power's father hates the Dutch.

  28. Accidentally found the Dutch and it became one of my favorite black openings. But I go D6. Gotham thoughts on doing that for having the bishop cover f5 then putting the king Knight to F6, I have had some decent success with it but I'm at 700-800 ello

  29. Wow look at 2 year ago levy just as awesome as present day levy 👌👌

  30. Why there's no one answer his question about favourite fruit
