  A retiree who was trying to make ends meet by selling books was brutally beaten by a group of young unemployed men. What a sad state of affairs.

  Gotham has 2 obsessions...one is with Magnus and the other is with retiring

  Stanz winning was one of the most hype moments of the entire stream

  Ludwig video was great, but what I was really waiting for is this one.

  During the Ludwig game, they actually started coordinating to move at the same time so Gotham couldn't stagger his responses, he had the clock ticking down on all boards. So that loss was understandable. The Stanz loss was inexplicable, it was 1 on 1 with Gotham up on time.

  The people who were all sure that stanz was cheating are the epitome of the dunning kruger effect because people who know nothing about chess think anyone can beat anyone with &quot;luck&quot; so they would never assume stanz was cheating and anyone who actually knows a decent amount about chess would recognize that neither of you were playing very accurately so clearly stanz wasn&apos;t cheating.<br><br>It&apos;s only the people who know a very small amount about chess but have heard that &quot;good chess players don&apos;t lose to worse players&quot; who could think stanz was cheating and completely ignore the circumstances of the match that would cause you to play at a lower level than normal.

  Atrioc&apos;s games were really funny because he is a Gotham fan and watches Levy&apos;s videos about high level games, but he did the exact opposite of every piece of beginner advice that Levy always gives. Big A needs to buy the book

  My favorite moment was when someone told Stanz that Levy was getting flamed for that loss in his chat and he went &quot;Dude, that sucks man. Levy is my goat bro. I love his videos&quot;.
