This man is the Bob Ross of chess
Underrated comment
"oh no, my queen" but there are no mistakes, just happy accidents
Check out Yasser Sierawan if you want the bob ross of chess
Who the heck is Bob Ross??
But for real, I listen to him to relax myself and sometimes fall asleep
These are my favorite videos. I watch them to fall asleep to, then get to start again from when I fell asleep the following 4-5 nights.
Same here 😂 i just finished them. I dont why but his voice is great to make one sleepy in bed
Same. I sometimes wonder why I'm watching a chess stream with my eyes closed, lol.
*
He's the Bob Ross of chess 😂
same here
Watching your game at 3hr 10min, and I have one thing to say: Dear Eric. I watch a lot of TH-cam chess (I’m old and don’t watch streaming. Sorry, I guess?) and you always have the most MENTAL positions.
You know how you watch some footy or tennis and be like “man those lads are good”. That’s what’s it’s like for us plebs.
Yourself, Levy, Bartholomew, Finegold, Chessbrahs, Sir Lord Ginger of house Williams…. (Tbh the folk I watch most) No you’re not Magnus. You might care, you may not.
On behalf of the silent majority who don’t comment, we don’t care either. All we want to see is something that blows our minds and is awesome to watch. No matter what those loud minorities say, it’s a bloody good show, every bloody time 👌🏻
There's just something so relaxing about watching Eric play
My thoughts exactly, soothing.
fr, i feel like i could fell asleep everytime i watch his videos
@@asn9732 I do
I developed this weird addiction where i can only fall asleep while listening to a calming chess explanation. Eric Rosen works pretty well also John Bartholomew
Haha, eric always makes me fall asleep
50:08 "Sack everything, it might be checkmate" ... literally my strategy every bullet game :)
SACK IT ALL 2022
My strategy is similar except I don't believe it's checkmate.
L
Lo
Thanks for chaptering these videos, helpful!
It's honestly impressive
"visually it looks really good, cuz the king is completely naked".
Rosen 2022
1:23:54 "I'm up a whole rook. No, an exchange. For a pawn.' [sad pause] "Maybe I could've gotten more..." Well, that celebration was short-lived 😂
31:24 Poor Derek Banas... Eric called him Derek Bananas
A 3 hour video is really great . 🙂 . Thanks Eric .
It’s 4 hours 🤡
As a brittish person this sounds really sarcastic😂
@@thegaffgaming9503 sarcasm is my speciality
Eric if you read this know that you're a great content creator and your videos bring me joy every day when I study and learn more about chess. Thanks
1:56:24 was the ultimate case of your worst piece becoming your best. Great stuff.
15:58 That startled me little bit and made me happy.
25:34 how to check this? does any1 have the link?
54:00 I played Eric ❤️too bad I missed that knight checkmate🤣🤣🤣
You are Langajay?
Yes
@@langajay506 You even changed your name in youtube. I am also a Caro Kann player BTW. Can you play me?
@@animezoneamv9116 yeah let's play send me a message/challenge at lichess
@@langajay506 Ok
I love watching you play, I can learn a lot from you
I am having a headache right now Eric, thanks for uploading now I can calm down while laying in the bed :))
Love from India☺️
It's neither whale fishing nor whale hunting, but simply whaling!
"Okay, where's my mate?" Eric Rosen 🤝 bucks this time of year
Oh, the last game was so tense. Zhigalko wanted the draw because Chessar was 5 points away from him. Would have meant the victory. If Chessar'd won and he lost, they would have had the same amount... However, in the last minute some points were restored (cheater) which got you 3, Chessar 8 but Zhigalko only 7 points. Chessar needed only 4 points to equalize! Didn't matter since Zhigalko won against you though...
Eric, you are pure inspiration in such a crazy world. @ 3:48:12 was a highlight for me. The previous game could have tilted you...and it did to an extent of the next game...but you prevailed. Your attitude is beyond model. Thank you for reminding me of what's best of this human race. saludé!
I have learned the most from Mr Rosen particularly the Stafford gambit which I try use everything I play black
It was worth watching full video to see Zhigalko reaction at the end :D
Very excited Zighalko when he won....
Yep, good comparison to Bob Ross by Jordan below..Eric is really growing with his chess. He will get GM one day if he goes for it.
So happy to watch this on Twitch as well while playing the tournament myself.
Hope your tournament went well!
Being calm is key what you said it was genius! That's my humble but pro appreciation.
*Oh, there's a funny line here!*
*Wait it doesn't work*
*Ohh noo*
how is your comment the only one not in cursive
That Benoni gambit was really tense! im glad you took a look at it after the game , i was wondering why you hadnt taken the pawn. at first i thought i was just being a silly little 500. but for one move i was actually right! lol anyway, great video as always Eric! thank you for all of thee great games, win or lose. low rated players like me love to see weird and crazy gambits both for entertainment, and to try them out.
i love how you chaptered the video
Love this vods
Loved this
Lol, glad I made it to the end
2:13:28 According to Stockfish Rh6 was the best move, because if he takes the knight you have Qxh2 followed up with Rg6 which leads to basically the same exact position.
Love watching your videos
Great chess!
You should NEVER turn off Yasser
Eric beserk s the game
Again eric I'm behind 2 minutes 😂😂
What is the link to that Rosen score site? That sounds really amusing.
LMAO That superchat on 54:46 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Looks good to me
The ending 🤣
0:01 the list looks like the silhouette of a person
Omg I love chess!
'Definitely Maybe' is a nice album. :-)
16:19 I thought you said “I have a pretty bussin’ position” lol
I think they should do a year long blitz tournament with no rating limit or limit to who you could play (a 600 could be paired against a 2200) and the whole point is that you play till you lose. After you lose you are kicked from the tournament for the rest of the month you lost in and your win streak is posted on a leaderboard and at the end of the year the people with the top 10 longest win streaks for the year play a big tournament with major cash prizes. I feel like it would definitely draw attention to the game and make a fun challenge for pros to do their best to not be rated more than their opponents, but rather play smarter than their opponents
How to find the site Rosen Score? 25:35
Leeets goo ❤️
Ben Finegold: Never play f3.
Eric Rosen: Always play f3 checkmate.
game at 1:48:00 was crazy so many discoveries and tactics
yess a 4 hour vid
Someone help me, doesn’t Eric just lose a pawn at 3:00 if white plays Bxc7?
Yes, they both missed it
1:15:36 how come g3 to remove the knight from defending h5 wasn't played?
2:06:00 lesson, endgame same color bishop, pawn should be on opposite color
2:06:01 All of White's pawns are fixed on the same color as Black's bishop, while none of Black's pawns can be captured by White's bishop...an important lesson to keep in mind about bishop endings!
what background music is he playing?
"Derek Bananas" haha 31:15
Eric needs to become a gm he has all the potential.
I’m stuck at around the 1810-1860 mark, any tips I can do to get out of the plateau would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
I was stuck there for 6 months, too and just got over the plateau a few days ago, breaking 1900 for the first time!
Learning Endgames did it for me
Also try to deepen you opening preparation with every game
Good luck! :)
@@ferdiskala I’ll try that, appreciate it! Any favorite openings of yours you recommend?
@@peterb9407 I’m 2000 rapid and I have reached 1940 in bullet and I play caro kaan and king Indian as black Vienna as white and I have various things I do against e4 responses that are not e5, like smith mora against the Sicilian and orthoshnap against the French
@@edoardobarboni6357 thank you sir, do you think boring play tends to work out better? I really just love to have fun with it and make it tricky I guess, if so, I’ll opt for a more traditional style of play
im stuck in 1200 range in lichess. what should i do?
59:36 It isn't a blunder if you win.
Another new reason for not paying attention to online class, OH NO MY CHEMISTRY SCORES!
Good Job Eric
1:08:25 I wonder why Eric decided to take with queen and then with knight preserving the knight and not vice versa. Does anybody know?
Because then white is not obligated to take. The knight would be just pinned to the queen and could be easily attacked by f pawn
Oh no my next 4 hours!
If you had accepted the draw Zhigalko only would have been in second place!
Sure? He would have 218 points which is more than 217... if chessar and he had the same points, Zhigalko would still win because his win percentage would have been higher...
Definitely Maybe is the name of an Oasis album.
The ending looooool
Eric getting ready for his honeymoon "So I guess I'm pretty close to mating"
1:56:36 - It sounds like Eric is insulting his opponent when that's just his opponent's username.
There goes my next 4 hours.
53:35 2200 misses mate in one.. he must've been so nervous in this game
2:47:48 black made it obvious he was cheating with QE7. Pretty amazing that you guys were dead locked even for like 50 moves while you were playing stockfish. Pinxit was banned a couple games later.
3:39:53 Say the line!
What’s the deals with the quacks?? Lol i don’t tune in to enough streams
1:16:40 Since white Queen was pre-moved, if black BxN (instead of resigning) - "Oh No! My Queen?"
Its check
I wish I existed… THEN I’d show em💀💀
I just wanted to chime in. I noticed that at around 3:16. White had Bxc7 because you can't play Qxc7 or else Qxb4. White would win a pawn and threaten discovery on black's queen with an exchange of the dark squared bishops. Did you miss that or was it some sort of gambit that I'm missing? I thought that I might be crazy so I checked an engine and it does appear that white's best move would have been Bxc7.
But I believe that white just played a3 instead so perhaps they missed it as well.
I'm relatively new to Chess. So I'm glad that I'm seeing some lines that even some masters appear to miss sometimes. Perhaps it's because I enjoy doing Chess puzzles.
@ 28:03 you should have just traded queens. If he takes with rook you put your bishop on e3 and win the rook or the knight. If he takes with king, well than the king is on an uncomfortable square.
2:15:49 isn’t the queen trapped after Rh1?
Eric please put relaxing music in the background of your streams. It’s all they’re missing
A quackin ?? d ork and the opponents make moves to help Eric it seems. Every game the obvious is skipped to allow our hero to victoriously blitz all who dare to man overboard with him. Oh my, what can you do? Don't hurt me... Oh no I'm a ....??
Turns on pentatonic
Heart rate immediately spikes
2:15:00 fav game
At 25:00, your opponent should bishop check and win your rook. But he didn’t and said rook killed him.
1:06:52 I think Bf7 is a brilliant move for sure
I don't think so. It's easy to find and a natural move. Also what it does is simple. Not a great combination or trick.
Eric Rosen missed Will Smith giving Chris Rock love
Couldnt eric do rxbg4 in 1:56:11?
Vague ideas of king to e3
Sheesh the game at 39:30 was complete destruction 😂
1:10:00 everyone missed Nf7 forking rooks🤣
Wouldn't it make more sense to just resign the games that are obviously, or most likely lost? That way that time can be used to face more opponents and gain more points.
49:45 why didnt he play nxb4 first instead?
1:56:06 ah I was screaming at the screen the bishop was hanging! (Pawn was pinned by the queen)
Eric, are you an INFP?
1st game missed trapping the queen
First game you had their queen stuck and missed it! Shouldn’t have moved your bishop back.
1:56:14 Eric missed a free piece with *33...Rg4*
I use these vids to fall asleep. The pentatonic sounds are not nearly as relaxing 😔
At 1:16 I think the point was bxc6, luckily eric didn't push d4 so it was fine anyway
