@@MizunaGames I liked Bob Ross. Watched quite a few of his shows. He taught people how to have fun messing with paint. As a painter, he never broke 800. His opening preparation was very shallow.
Great video Eric, really enjoy the longer time controls, it gives lower rated players like me more time to digest the position and hear your thoughts on it. Please keep them coming!
It's funny how our brains work. I've had the same thing happen to me that happened to Eric at 1:15:06. Qa2! picks up the rook, but he only spots that Rxg7 loses to Qb2!. Same idea, but obviously easy to miss when you've got seconds on the clock. Still, always feels good to see something a titled player misses, no matter how much the odds are stacked in my favor :)
People thought tomatoes were poisonous because they used to have plates containing lead, the acidity of the tomato drew out the lead which then poisoned them
Oh no, my next hour and a half
Same 😂
😂😂
Hilarious! 😂
I’m on day two of trying to finish it lol
Druck chess
Feeling super welcome when greeted with “you’re just in time”.
Eric as wholesome as ever.

Eric: I'm on a QUEST to 2600!
Me: Wow
Eric: I'll start with 2592
Me: ...
Eric Rosen = Bob Ross of chess.
So you're saying Eric paints tasteless kitsch.

6 centipawn loss versus 11 centipawn loss is crazy.
What a nice game.
1:20:00
Pawn caterpillar, because that's the way a pawn cube gets itself to move, just like a caterpillar : by expanding and retracting.
39:45 If that knight on A4 were a camel then it would be smothered mate by capturing on B7
Man, the move C4 by your opponent around 5:30 is impressive
Never would have thought of that
Now you will though :)
It’s explosive!
Just saw it, it was very nice
17:25 is pretty cool too! e3!
Love the longer game videos they're really instructive and very much entertaining. Thanks very much.
This is called " grades gambit " which I played by watching the whole stream
Eric too nice to say anything during game 2 but clear cheating from the start. 2200 Elo needs to think on move 3?

if you are white, an italian
out of context so crazy
Pawn human centipede 👍
These are my favorite games and streams to watch
I'm disappointed that there was a chance for the Evan's Gambit and you didn't take it.
But thanks for the video anyways :)
Everyone gangsta until there's a funny line
0:40 what about this scotch gambit is not scotch gambit? :(
Wait, there was a cut at 12:21, that was weird. Thought I was tripping for a second.
What cut?
First opponent is banned now on lichess.
So is the second opponent lol

Rapid games are awesome
14:00 - Eric could have sac'd the rook on G7, sac'ed the queen on D7, and capture with the pawn for a savage unstoppable promotion next move.
I think you meant g2 then d2. White would then move there rook to d7 and capture the pawn and black would be down a rook. I could be wrong
2600hz
love the rapid content, keep it up :))
40:34 - that is a triple fork opportunity. In a legit game, what is the most number of pieces you have forked with one move?
Pawn snake!
8:12 does king d7 work ?
1:20:00 I like Potter Pawns, Like Harry Potter's lightning bolt scar
you talk so quietly I cant hear you when it rains and it rains a lot. help me out editor
And then he sacrifices THE ROOOOOOOOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
39:45 Funny enough, if the knight was a camel, the camel xb7 would be a checkmate
1:13:45 diskewvered attack
Now that the queen of england is dead your "oh no my queen" merch makes more sense
Much better than blitz, which is way too fast for me to follow.
Anyone know where his hoodie is from? I’ve seen Naroditsky with a black version. They’re pretty cool.
80% sure it's botez merch
Ggs! Yet for me such a short chess video 😁
Good luck on your quest :D, we are with you
The hourly "was I ever better" tournament...
Love the rapid content
Nice! I’m still grinding in the 1000’s🤓
@ 49:00 is a meme worthy moment
1:18:39 ZigZag pawns
1:20:26 based pawns
eric
sheesh rosen
Your a GM to me eric
1:09:30 transvestite opening
In order to not be racist and transphobic, chess will begin with either black or white moving first and king/queen having the same privileges.
Great video
Day 9 of asking for Chigorin/Spanish as Black in a long time control game
Nice
Congrats 🎉
