Wow, this is actually crazy. I feel like I've kind of hit a rut in my OTB tournament experience in the past few weeks. Had a run of really good performances in tournaments where I was playing players 200+ points higher than me and finding a lot of success but have felt that I have not been able to translate that level of play into consistent success at a level closer to my current rating and as such have lost all of the rating that I gained from that streak. The idea of focusing on study goals rather than number goals is one that I am trying to embrace, and seeing the specific goals that you outlined for yourself is incredibly insightful.
Can you make a video but every time you blunder, you get smaller and your voice gets slightly higher pitched, but every time you make a brilliant move, you get bigger and your voice deepens.
Game 5, Move 13 (1:23:43) you could just take the bishop with your knight for free, if queen takes back the queen is lost after bg4 with a mate threat.
Got my TH-cam year in review: “You were in the top 0.3% of Eric Rosen fans. You watched 24x as much as the average viewer.” 😂
I was up there too
Mine was Top 0.1% with only 15x as much as the average viewer.
I’m so confused how 0.3% is 24x 😂
When and how did you get this information
@@fatcatpills it just popped up as a notification for the end of year review
@@zaksanchez It's probably because you watch other players too but he doesn't or he watches less of others than you do.
Eric doesn't want to go down the rabbit hole, he's just a chill guy
I love the long rapid streams :))
Completely out of context, “I just wanna clap my opponent” made my laugh so hard

Yay for more instructive rapid chess!!
"Clapping hands, after a victory"...oh Eric, you're so innocent. Also, no...that's not what it means LOL!!
2:05:05 "this is the one piece"
"THE ONE PIECE... IS REEEEEAAAAALLLL!!!"
Marriage is a draw? Maybe a stale mate in some cases.
zugzwang in the worst ones
What a bummer on game 4. "I can show after the game.... Actually I can show during the game." Ouch. Those seconds probably did it.
Opponent setting up for the next game - that was sick 😂😂😂 Couldn’t stop laughing 👍
Loved the sheep poetry

Yay for more Eric!

Hey Eric. I saw you creeping around on the floor during the WCC
Eric is so cute when he's flustered. People should keep doing this
oh no my beard!
Did black have g5 at 1.05.00?
