38:27 Rook Gambit Declined, opponent was absolutely adamant on not giving Eric any gambit at all
I dont get it why didnt they take the rook
@@Triskelion345 Opponent was absolutely adamant on not giving Eric any gambit at all
@@Triskelion345 probably afraid that they’d get their queen trapped, thinking an IM wouldn’t just a hang a rook lol
It's probably just a brain thing misinterpreting patterns. Generally in positions in which people allow you to take that pawn, the bishop's defending the knight, so the rook moves with tempo on the queen, maybe the queen gets trapped, and so on.
But what really happened is the opponent was acting on principle of not ever giving Eric his gambit. If you can take a Rook with check against Eric, look for some other move that doesn't take free material!
I think the queen would get trapped if taking the rook
27:50 “ I’v got so much room to breathe… I feel this is a good opening for someone who’s been claustrophobic “
- Eric Rosen
Eric’s calm and polite demeanor vs. his aggressive “punch in the face” gameplay and “that may have been a mouseslip, but no mercy” = hilarious
38:28 when Eric Rosen blundered the freest rook of all times
I think so too, why wasnt Eric scared/didnt the opponent take it?
I was looking in the comments to see if anyone else saw it
@@frankberger8243 I guess it just slipped out of both of their minds. Pretty impressive, considering how high their ratings are
He mentions it a couple mins later, I'm glad he noticed it from chat lol
I was really hoping this was a rook roll
18:47 literally me almost everytime I play chess
Eric thinking chat is rook-rolling him when he literally hung his rook is premier Boy Who Cried Wolf content
I thought it was an "oh no, my rook!" moment, not an actual blunder.
@@albericponcedeleon2696 lol I paused the video and spent like 5 mins trying to figure out why the rook couldn’t be taken for both Eric not worrying about it and his opponent not taking… turns out it could just be taken
@@ammster1234 lmao same, i went as far as punching the position in to Lichess's board editor. sure enough, Stockfish said to just take the rook
@@poundcayx thanks for doing that, I was about to put it in the editor myself 😂
@@poundcayx lol I did the same thing. Usually where I think Eric blundered its just something I missed, but after looking for a minute I couldn't see why, so I stopped and checked with my buddy stockfish for confirmation lol
Other players: "I MUST WIN!!!"
Erik: "Oh that looks fun"
My jaw DROPPED when that rook was blundered and there was absolutely no mention of it
Wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow
Mine too! I had to take a minute to put the position into Stockfish to check there wasn't some tactic I was missing!
@@nathanseymour4576 you could have used that time to think for yourself ;)
@@eel9 but he saw everything, he just thought he didn't. There was nothing to actually think about
19:19 "I'm not down any material though..." said with mild disgust. Classic Rosen!
Chess books: 'Don't just move every Pawn in the opening!'
Eric: Crushes opponent with only Pawn moves.
at 27:50 the opening is called "My first chess lesson: how to move pawns"
Eric we need you to get a guard goose. You never know when a duck may decide to break into your house
just for the, "oh no my guard goose!" potential
@@MrBisque Oh no, my goose!
@@eliaskjrbo8142 kinky
@@jestfullgremblim8002 How’d you know?
funny
We gotta give respect for the Herrstrom gambit, it was WILD ! Also man pulled the jerome first game and got the resigne... absolut power
it was sooo entertaining to watch! The confidence in pushing those pawns... it was a style of play totally alien to me. When he started marking up all the empty spots in front of his pieces i started laughing. I was like, doesn't your king feel a bit exposed?!?
I wonder what his opponent felt during that herrstrom gambit
I’d be too flabbergasted to properly deal with whatever that was
@@nathanng that's the new super engine tech gotta give the king lots of breathing room 😂
@@TheOneWhoHasABadName I would feel like I was being squeezed from move 4 or 5
As a former old benoni player I know that feeling all too well
@@nathanng I've played it a bit in blitz and it's definitely interesting - tho my are is very aggressive normally so I don't mind giving my king a bit of breathing room haha
This is the type of content from Eric Rosen that gets the most appreciation.
We need gambits video every week!!!
Even if not gambits, just aggressive chess, there isnt any other strong player who's as entertaining as eric producing this kind of content, it's his niche and I hope he makes more!
@@vidul7498 agree mate
He is just so pleasant to listen and watch
Me: starts Video
Eric: oH iTs A gUaRd gOoSe
Me :: *starts watching the video thinking I'll only watch a few minutes
Eric at 57:10 :: "Let me know if you made it this far."
Me :: *doesn't regret it.
Btw, the Botez gambit is definitely my favorite. I use it all the time.
22:25 Engine suggests a brilliant defense for black after 10. d4: ...Nxc4 11. Nc7+ Qxc7! 12. Qxc7 Bd6 and the queen is trapped.
that's ace :)
wow gotta appreciate the connectivity (if thats a word). Beautiful!
Daaaamn
The Botez Countergambit
Time for tilting, Rosen said with a genuinely calm voice and demeanor
eric rosen: "lift rooks, get swole"
i can't argue with that
Eric: Here's a funny line.
Opp: Cries.
I love seeing how happy Eric gets when he gets recognized
Such a chilled good vibed stream. Wish I had Rosen's calmness after losing ,😂
You just gotta lose so much that you get numb to it. That's what I did.
Yeah - its the most important karate chess lesson - to learn how to get defeated :). In this tournament Eric lost only one game :) third one.
I think he just knows that he is a better player than 99% of people and doesn't care about 1 loss against 13 wins there 🤣
I feel like Eric as a teacher/coach has to focus so much on principals of chess, that when he is not OTJ he goes full balls to the wall and breaks every single principal in the name of fun.
He might even break a principle or two.
18:30 American cops when they can't find a reason to arrest someone
Damn
Lmao
That's hilarious lol
@@eliaskjrbo8142 do you not know how statistics work? they are shot less only because they are a smaller portion of the population but when averaged to account for the fact that there's like 3-4x as many white people black people are absolutely disproportionately killed.
also, "Resisting arrest is a legitimate reason to arrest someone" is some bootlicker shit considering there are dozens of widely publicized and cases in which police brutalized and murdered people regardless of race on video.
@@NippleOfOdin I was also just claiming you shouldn’t resist arrest and if you do you can be arrested for that. My father is a police officer and he is a kind honest man. I just don’t like the narrative that makes all cops seem like bastards
When I first watch Eric's channel and just starting out in chess, I thought this guy was too chill and too high level for me to comprehend. Once I learnt more about chess, I realized that I've been staring on gold the whole time
34:08
"Wait this is look bad though."
Lmao, Eric, this is why we love you.
27:19 "Sometimes the pieces there... a bit to heavy to lift... you just have to warm up by pushing pawns" 😂😂😂 Dude I'm dying 😂😂😂
Absolutely barbaric chess. Love it. That stalemate in the second to last game and the hillbilly gambit at the end were my favourite!
Herrstrom gambit was so fun to watch. It's like the pawns all got rowdy while the rest of the pieces were getting ready to go out.
this has gotta be one of the most entertaining youtube videos i've ever watched. just pure unhinged chess.
I love these tournaments. They keep me going. Good job Eric
This tournament was lit 🔥, Herrstrom gambit was on another level.
“That was a good opening for someone being claustrophobic” 😂🤣😂🤣
That Blackmar Diemer was a beautiful game - and one of my favourite openings. Your opponent sure defended like crazy. Kudos to them too.
I really enjoyed all of the wing gambits, particularly the winglish. Thank for your excellent content Eric. Almost at 500k subs on TH-cam!
Eric and Levy are my favorite chess content creators I could spend days just watching these guys play and teach me stuff I'll never be good enough to use in game 😂
Don’t be too sure. If you put your mind to it you could learn how to play piano and learn Claire de lune in its entirety in a few weeks. Chess is just a game where you have to keep a lot of stuff in mind.
@@PhSilentMew2 hey thanks appreciate your comment funny thing is I have improved alot I was around 800 900 currently average around 1600 now know alot of theory for quite a few openings and my middle game is really good still working on end game tho and speed that's my biggest weakness . My goal is 2000 if I reach that or higher I'll be content but still try to reach greater heights .
I honestly just appreciated the entire video. You do a good job of explaining why you choose certain moves and it’s really educational for me to watch! Thank you and subbed !
The most tricky gambits are the ones where you gambit the king
You could argue objectively losing gambits are gambitting the king, they are just sometimes declined
I used to watch some stand-up comedy after a hard day of work, but watching Eric is even funnier!
When you see a good move, look for a better move too
~Eric Rosen.
Watched till the end. Very entertaining and instructional. Eric, you are a beast! Smith-Morra gambit.
these gambit streams are my fav. Thank you Eric & v.well played
17:13 You can't miss that, Nd5 was very pretty Olalala Finish!
Herrstrom where the first 12 moves were just pawn moves is absolutely mindblowing
17:20 white has an amazing move: Nd5!! Hitting the queen and threatening ne7#
A very nice line is 26. Nd5! Qa3 (defending e7 and avoiding losing the queen) 27. Qg3!! Threatening Nf6# and the queen again ,and if 27...Qxg3 then Ne7#
Great to watch how much fun you have playing. Cheers!
very relaxing and entertaining as always. Thanks Eric!
His enemies are in excruciating pain while he's cool as a cucumber.
35:23 “whenever you see a good move, look for a better move” lifestyle coach typa shit, love it
He’s quoting Emanuel Lasker
Watched the entire thing! My favorite gambit was the wing gambit you saw on twitter at 9:27, followed by the improv smiley face gambit.
I’m no good at chess myself, attempted to climb the ladder a while ago and capped out at 600. Your videos are great though and I love all your content :)
Hello Eric! Been a TH-cam lurker for some time now but have somehow just discovered your stafford gambit videos! Love your videos, very informational! Keep up the great work!
Never even heard of the majority of these gambits. And this guy is just killing them. Another great video Rosen.
My favorite gambit was the smiley face gambit vs the stone wall. Fascinating to watch, really enjoy watching you play so effortlessly. I feel like there needs to be a gambit called the Guard Goose Gambit :)
33:50 "Let's go for Budapest. Dahh! What is this?"
Sorry, I'm only living for his "Dah!"
Lost it at 'i'm gambiting my development' this man is so creative
Aggressive fun Eric is literally why I love watching chess
Who doesn't love the King-Evan's-Wing Gambit!! My fave for suuurrreeee!
I watched the whole thing, it is incredible, keep it up.
Eric's checks are so strong, they're mate 18:45
That Herrstrom game felt so weird, such an empty board, and the first 8 moves were just bullying the knight
Love all your vids. You just have that calmness under pressure that’s so satisfying.
You’re the funnest dude to watch, u can tell Eric is a cool dude
“I just thought it was a strong check”
It was… the strongest check of them all
had me dying
These games are really cool gambits, for example on the first one it was amazing! Keep it up Eric :)
Love these gambit videos
I am so impressed with this! My favorite is probably either the Herrstrom Gambit, or the Wing/Kings/Evans Gambit.
The Vienna Gambit is definitely my most-played one, but the Traxler (not a gambit, I know) is probably my favorite as far as pure chaos and fun goes! Love the content as always.
now thats what i call a fun tournament, only eric could pull this off
19:00 "Oh! That's mate." Glad to know an IM also does that.
I loved the game where was just pawn moves. I'm always so scared to lose on not developing correctly.
There is some chess content showing famous "10+/many pawns only moves" games :) - recommend it - these are really some interesting games - later you only need to develop with tempo :)
34:08 "Wait this just looks bad though" made me chuckle, nice vid :)
Thank you for such entertaining, educational and excellent chess! It is greatly appreciated.
Made it to the end. awesome video. Love the gambit vids.
I love how comfortable you've gotten being on camera. You're a lot of fun to watch.
27:30 "Have to warm up by pushing pawns" Haha!
This was prime content Eric. Incredibly entertaining and you played really really well mate. 👏👏👏
Agreed.
Never heard of the Herrstrom gambit in the Zuckertort opening before
, but it was imho the coolest of them all. My favorite gambits are the Belgrade gambit, the Von Hennig - Schara and the Fred.
28:25 “I’m beginning to feel slightly blockaded” he says with an end-game type of position
Only Eric could make some of these lines work! Great content
i love these long videos, especially gambit long videos
Made it all the way through. Queens gambit is my favorite
Just had a half hour nap with this in my earphones. glorious! The parts that I saw where awesome too, the 8 and 9 move resignations first :p
Made it to the end. Great games. Favorite gambit would probably be the one that you moved only pawns for the first 13 moves lol
The Smith Morra where you gambit-ed your bishop was a really beautiful game.
Hands down the most entertaining video of chess I have ever watched.
This series are great! the best videos ever
Loved this video!
I found many chess channels but this channel is the best 😍😍
I addicted to your channel 🥰🥰😍😍
This was much more entertaining than a Monday deserves.
What a sick .. nonchalant .. super fun run! .. that was awesome 🤜
Yes, made it to the end. And my favorite gambit is the Jerome. Thank you for this series
The whole session was just lovely! I took great pleasure in it.
"I'll invest in a Guard Goose" AHAHAH
Great stuff man! Gambit them all
I like it when you just make it up as you go along. "That didn't work, let's try ______!"
I love these gambit chess videos.
Beautiful, love it
Bro your cambits are Sick! Watched the hole Video!
19 gambits played in total
4 new gambits invented (smiley face, winglish, beno-morr-tez, grand morra)
Thanks for breaking down the Blackmar - Diemer! Keep up the great content!
