Content creator IM Levy Rozman released a Guess The Elo video on April 29. Levy played Blitz games against five student chess players at Yale University campus in Connecticut, USA.

The first player, Luis, reached an endgame with Queen and two Knights against Rozman’s Queen and Rook. Levy offered a draw when both had less than one minute on the clock, and Luis accepted. Levy Rozman guessed the opponent’s rating above 2000 and was surprised to learn Luis’s rating is 1600:

“Wow! This guy really locked in!”

Gotham Chess correctly guessed the rating for one player and missed by 300-400 Elo for the other three students.

Guess the Elo is a popular YouTube format where participants determine a chess player’s rating based on moves made in a game. American IM Levy Rozman (2318) is the creator of the GothamChess YouTube channel with over 7 million subscribers.
