It's so weird when Eric plays other Gms all the moves seem reasonable and somewhat simple. But when plays these guys the moves look amazing and hard ! Fun to watch ! Cool speed run !
@Lenny Pinskiy As long as you remember that you can use tactics to gain positional advantages or winning tempi for your developpement, and to look at potential opponent tactics. Studying tactics puzzles will help you exploit mistakes, and avoid making game losing moves. And such losses are very boring, and the wins because of blunders are not very fun either. So studying tactics will give you a more enjoyable chess experience, where you win by having the better plan, rather than being the one not to blunder.
Bro that israelgtrez guy was insane, I kept thinking they were blundering but it was an intentional bait, and then finally when they actually blundered the rook I was confused lmao
Maybe I’m too late for this and I’m probably not the best to give my opinion but I’ll try anyway. I’m rated 1912 FIDE which is not that high but it’s not hard to see far quickly. It’s more impressive to be slow and thorough. If I see 5 moves I don’t see the five moves individually I see the position after the five moves so maybe they do that on a larger scale.
Im not trying to discredit them at all, but a lot of the time these GMs also just react on muscle memory, they've played so many gamea that they come accross the same position countless times and often theres no reason for you to change moves in a certain position if its the best move, especially during development, popular openings tend to have the same following moves just in different sequences. You're definetly not wrong, more often then not even when facing a completely different game they predict the position 3-5 moves ahead while playing, almost as if in their mind they are playing a game in the future. At the end of the day though, a big part of chess is memory, obviously not everyone has to play the same way but if you go by finding the best moves, they are often the same moves and only in the end game you start playing real chess. This is a big reason why Carlsen is the world champ. Most SuperGMs cap at about the same level but Magnus' end game sets him apart from the rest of them. Still entirely impressive.

3:05 I couldn’t figure out what the continuation was if queen captures knight on g5 so I plugged it into the engine and he actually just straight up blundered a piece
@@pwner-yd2te As someone who has played a lot of Danish Gambit, I always did this mistake in the beginning! It's really intuitive and you need to remind yourself not to put the knight there! :D
This was a blast, to watch, too funny...I was betting that guy from Mexico around 19:00 was playing too well consistently and was bound to blunder statistically and he hung his rook right on the next move on e8 at 23:22, and you kept saying all along I'm gonna loose... ROFL
Check whose move it is. At 20:45 it's white's move. Before that, Eric's queen was hit by the dark bishop. After 20:45. White's knight again was hitting the queen.
The most entertaining video and I can learn a lot of cool moves from this. I tried to watch another channel on low-level speedrun but they are kinda boring...
29:09 c2 is a great moves i think, cuz if knight take the rook, go queen d2, and checkmate after opponent's king go f1, queen f2.. is tht right ? why eric didnt relize tht dang it
@@thenightfox8497 You didn't even see the pin but you are acting like we should take your advice. Winning material isn't a bad thing, he is down a piece, a queen bishop and rook and really solid for attacking, not to mention his f g and h passed pawns.
I don't know , although white could chase the knight off with their f pawn .e.g. pawn pushes forward to f4 or possibly queen moves to d7 , sacrifice and take queen but it's not profitable so it was probably a mistake on black . Fortunately , that should answer your question . Thanks for asking and bye!
Hello GM Eric and the players. I was just wondering because I saw a good move at 20:43 and I would have like to be sure it was a good one. After the white responded to rook d8 for Eric, Black moved queen g 6. A check with the black bishop taking the pawn h2 would have win the white queen and the game I guess. Can you confirm the move ? Cheers ! Thank for the content !

That's because lower rated players don't play very sound chess, and therefore the positions become more tactical
Y M makes sense . Thank u !

True! He had to play rook a2 when he blundered right?
its crazy how fast these players see 3 to 5 moves ahead, its almost less than a second

It's cause they have played thousands of games.

Its a mix of experience and recognizing mating patterns and positions. Its like doing similiar puzzles again and again
it is not only experience and repetition. you need a brain and majority of normal people dont have

@3:08 why didn't the player queen capture g5? Wouldn't that be a free piece?
Yeah he blundered I guess, and didn’t notice.
You are officially my favorite GM Eric. Your music taste is just outta this world
8:15 "that's a good move.... POTENTIALLY"
The play at 31:14 is incredible
3:05 I couldn’t figure out what the continuation was if queen captures knight on g5 so I plugged it into the engine and he actually just straight up blundered a piece
Yeah the eval was -4.5 🤣🤣
Eric I love ya man, so fun to watch and really educational. Keep it up! Can't wait for next part :)
you can follow and support them on twitch if don't want to wait for the next part :)
whoever edited this, thank you for cutting out some of the time between moves.
Could you actually just share your playlist for that background music? Some dope sound there.
3:06 does black not have Qxg5 lmfao
yeah i just looked at that with stockfish cause it didnt make sense --- score is -3.9 at that point taking the knight
@@songsmadeforyou think they both thought the bishop was still on c1

just checked with stockfish and then came here to find the comment lol
Best serie ever on this channel, Eric. Keep doing!
0:53 so I was on the Eric vs Magnus vid and I accidentally pressed this and then thought he beated Magnus like that
Just so much good content, day after day after day. It never stops.

For a chess player this guy is mad cool
Yeah except when he loses, then he's not so cool as in the sense of the word
Good games, Eric!

19:22 Bishop on d6 moves by itself!
Demonic Bishop 💀
21:34 everything that I just planned is faulty
I love Erics style of play. He plays hope chess like me unlike the other gms that make a point in trying to play solidly.
Dude you are so fucking good it’s ridiculous.
Why doesn’t the last guy to lose just take the Knight with one of the pawns? Pawn takes on f5 at 35:55
@3:02 is this not just a blunder?
Yeah, stockfish agrees it's a blunder. Just wasn't sure.
It's weird, if I was coaching some random 1200 I would have instantly announced blunder, but when watching a GM I hesitate.
Why are you talking to yourself
You're asking questions and answering yourself?
Different comments for different thoughts. Why are you trying to be funny?
3:08 Doesn't Qxg5 wins a piece on the spot ?
Bryan Pfaltzgraff yes. It was a big blunder
Nope someone already commented this, even stockfish says taking is bad because white has good moves
@@envy.2782 lol stockfish 11 evaluated that as -5.5 it is a big blunder
@@envy.2782 What are you talking about? It is a big boy blunder.
I love it when Hansen presses the Street Fight KO button. Hell yeah!!
20:45
Why not Bxh2 with a discovered attack on the white queen?
I'm pretty low ranked so I'm sure I'm missing the reason why.
His queen is hanging as well so it dun work
Check whose move it is. At 20:45 it's white's move. Before that, Eric's queen was hit by the dark bishop. After 20:45. White's knight again was hitting the queen.
That's the best move, good job
Can someone explain to me why the queen can't just take the knight at 3:06? I can't see Eric's follow up after that.
It's a blunder from the opponent, guess he didn't see it
Whats about the 30:00 - was it about beauty to give mate with a pawn? The premove with the queen on f2 would be a blunder? Cant see it :)
At 4:55 I was screaming for rxd6 because queen can't take or it'll get pinned to the king
20:43 Black should have taken the h pawn with the dark squared bishop which comes with an exposed attack to the queen from the rook
Look closer.
7:48 bxh2 would be a cute move here
It's better to play good moves instead of "cute" moves and losing the game. :-(
Woah, attitude.
1. He's playing to entertain.
2. The position is still completely winning.
Fuck off
You KO finale is so BOSS!
K.O is the best, The King of Figthers
31:10 can you just be not so insane geez
Really educational video. understood very well as I m from the same range.
Do more like this 💕💕
Lol same range
20:54 couldn't you have went bishop h2 and have taken the queen with the rook?
Nice speed run! Pretty good dance music.
The most entertaining video and I can learn a lot of cool moves from this.
I tried to watch another channel on low-level speedrun but they are kinda boring...
At 20:45 why not bishop takes H2 with check and after white plays whatever just take the queen with the rook on d8
cause white to move first.. he counter attacks Eric's queen in that moment then blocks the discovery with check
sometimes i have to rewind to see what just happened
29:09 c2 is a great moves i think, cuz if knight take the rook, go queen d2, and checkmate after opponent's king go f1, queen f2.. is tht right ? why eric didnt relize tht dang it
at 3:07 why knight g5 and black dont take the knight ?
So fucking nice music and you play pretty well, I'm in shock after that I saw this
17:31 what a generous God
Allez Eric ! Go to 3200 ! ;-)
Greetings from France.
22:30 this guy is very dangerous haha xd
Why not queen takes knight at 3:10
at 4:57 why doesn't Rxd6,Qxd6,Be5 pining the queen to the king work out?
On 3:07 why he played Ng5? He offered a free knight since it can be captured by the opponent’s queen? And why wasn’t it captured? I’m confusion
Buen trabajo Eric, aprendo mucho de tactica viendo tus partidas, te escribo en español porque se que lo entiendes, saludos
Hi guys, amateur here :)
At 3:10, why would the black queen taking the knight on g5 be a bad move ?
It's not a bad move. Mistakes were made
@ 0:59, Why didnt he go Queen c3 for a triple fork with check
that last mate gets me every time
Can one please explain why black don't Qxg5 at 3:05 ?
Maybe I’m wrong but at 20:50 ish doesn’t dark bishop to h2 hang the other guys queen?
You are correct, but Eric's queen is attacked as well
MrMelon247 yep I looked at the position a bit more and found it
At 3:12 is Qg5xkg5 not a good move?
17:28 im new to chess, was that move necessary where rook moves to A2?
If the queen stayed on b2, after pawn e4 the mate is not forced
He doesn't give up
33:40 why resignation?
2:55 this looks like a danish gambit on steroids. 😂
@3:13 Couldn't black take the knight on g5 with his queen since the bishop is not on c1?
yeah
I’m not great at chess, but 20:43 could he have taken the pawn on h2 with his bishop to do a discovered attack and win his queen?
after rook takes d2 opponent has bishop takes queen on f6 making the exchange equal
4:54 rook d6 is sexy
had to check it wasn't a mistake as I saw a move a GM didn't :-D

Well, I just checked the rest and finally the guy gave his queen :') ... No point in my first comment I guess.
@@stoneanimals True story ... I didn't pay attention that pawn had moved before he moved his queen ... I'm so low .. :'(
3:07 why isnt knight taken with black queen ?
28:40, isn’t Rc2 winning on the spot? If Nxc2 then Qd2 leads to mate? So you gotta take with the queen then whites lost??
Hahaha I should’ve kept watching oooooops
at 3:06 doesnt he just hang his knight?
Gotta love these speedruns.
3:07 isn't that a hanging knight on g5?
The main thing that interesting me the most is "starting moves" and you cut it...i want to see your openings pls sir show us that
Agree they should show the opening - a lot of learning opportunity there.
3:06 can opponent can play Qxg5 right/
3:04 why just not Qxg5?
yes, finally part 2 thank you
20:45 couldn’t he play Bishop on h2 and then rook d2 winning the queen?
His own queen is hanging also
@Дмитрий Черевков instead of Qg6 - Bxh2? Then Kxh2 Rxd2 Bxf6 - if you recapture on f6 your rook hangs on d2.
kuronity what about 20:51 can’t he play bishop takes pawn on h2 then capture?
