Every time I watch a stafford gambit video, I am blown away by how many layers of tricks there are
Like an onion?
@@dooflydetailguuy4349No, like a Stafford
same
@@dooflydetailguuy4349Like an Ogre
Basically its good for short games, because it has many many loopholes, it looks good but not at all a good opening for solid positional players
the greatest sequel of all time
Definitely up there with The Squeakquel
Can't wait for the next part:
"The Stafford gambit is undead"
Eric: "This is still secret Stanford gambit prep."
After the most natural bishop capture:
"I have never seen this before, oh God."
1:46
I laughed at that too 😂 It’s the most obvious move on the board
@@AUniqueHandleName444it's really not that obvious.. it's giving up defense of the key F3 square. There's a reason that Qxc4 is far, far more commonly played than Bxc4
So glad to see the despite the fact that the Stafford was brutally murdered, Eric Rosen was able to resurrect it.
"so you see there's this line in the Stafford where you sell all your vital organs"
Shoutout to your opponent for being so deeply prepared for this line. I’m a ≈2050-2080 on Lichess and I only have such in-depth prep for a few of my main opening lines or to fight against common traps like the Englund
I am 2050-2100 on lichess 10+0 and I have in depth knowledge of 0 openings. I want to learn but I don't know where. Can I ask you where do you learn openings in depth.
@@aliensconfirmed3498use the Lichess study feature and just go through the lines you often have. Check them with the engine and with the database. Its really not that hard
A reminder of the kind of wizardry we'll be missing out on with Jonathan's chess retirement. 😢
Finally.. more of Stafford gambit 🎉🥳
You had us in the first half🙂
eric rosen is the type of guy to revive an opening, brutally kill it, and then bring it back to life
I am a Stafford fan, and learnt it from this man, I try play it every time with black. Thanks Eric
Followed the game along with Stockfish and I'm super impressed by your opponent. Apart from 20.Bxf7 and 28.e5 (giving Black an option of a draw), they played almost the perfect engine moves until the endgame. Great work/prep for a 2150 rated player.
I remember catching a titled player in a pet line and then losing anyway. I pretty much stopped memorizing traps after John Fedorowicz beat my favorite over the board in blitz.
Got spooked with the thumbnail and its even not haloween yet.
Eric down 4 points of material "This is all prep 🗿"
Incredibly improperly underestimated channel. U the wizard. Hugs from Russia.
🎶The Stafford gambit is not dead its surely alive!🎵
only disappointment is he didn’t said Stafford gambit time….😂😂
Stafford Gambit ❤
I cracked up so hard with the tittle, thx for the great content Eric❤
I just watched Schrantz announcement to leave chess. Very sad :(
Stafford Gambit to Eric:
"You won't let me live . . . You won't let me die."
14 moves in: "this is all stafford prep, down 2 bishops"
IM Rosen: "My king is still in a small predicament." Me: "AAAAAGHHHH!!!"
The Stafford gambit is dead, long live the Stafford gambit
That was really tricky, good job Eric!
Wow, Eric and the Stafford are SOOOOOOOOOOOOO fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does Jonathan still edit your videos considering his announcement, Eric?
First 15 moves were top engine theory by white. Either interesting memorization or some referencing.
Eric is a necromancer 🧙♂️
At 3:00 : why does Bishop back to e2 not work? It defends the pawn, gets out of trouble and should the rook take, the king takes back and while the knight can fork the queen and the rook, the queen can just take the black queen. If Rd8 Qe3, if Nc4 Qf4. Am i missing something?
Yeah, after bishop back the rook will take with check , after the king takes the rook the queen will take the f3 pawn with check and after king back to e1 the horse is coming with check, only square of the king is d2 and then the rook on the 8th rank is coming to finish. Hope you understoond
Schrodinger's favorite opening.
This was the best stafford game i have ever seen!!
While amidst the act of resurrecting, maybe you could ressurrect Jonathan's channel in the not too distant future?
Takeaway: Resurrection is tough.
Maybe you should start playing the Elephant Gambit now the King of the EG has abdicated...
Who is that, if I may ask?
@@jonathanbernhard5418 Jonathan Schrantz, aka vampire chicken, who announced yesterday that he's giving up playing chess. He knows (and works for) Eric and played a lot of Elephant Gambits on his YT channel. Don't tell anyone, though, because I play that opening and don't want others to know about it!
Me thinks Eric could write a book about the Stafford Gambit. 🙂
you had this before in the video " Revealing my Deepest Stafford Gambit Preparation " :)
Eric I can't handle the emotional rollercoaster of you single handedly destroying and resurrecting an opening gambit. Please be more considerate in the future.
I haven't watched your videos since ages for some reason. I realised with this video, that I missed you ❤ (like a brother)
Re: the in game Rosen trophy comment... I'd have thought it would cap at a binary-significant move number, something a power of 2 (2^8 = 256 moves being the most logical).
no-one uses anything but an `int` these days; the number 300 (or maybe 600 if ply) will be hardcoded
My favourite part is when Eric says:"it's stafford time" and start staffording all over the place
You could say Stafford gambit has Rosen (risen 😂)
Where can I find the coffee chess game showed on 1:42 ?
Give your artist a raise, or drive a stake through his heart. Either is fair, but something needs to be done after his last two brilliant artworks.
The Stafford gambit is dead. Long live the Stafford gambit.
IDK if it was intended this way, but this is a subtle, nice tribute to one of the great chess youtubers as he hangs it up for now.
Imagine playing 20 moves like Stockfish and still losing...
Oh no my Eric!
NOOOOO WAYYYY
what if white plays on 16. move bishop back to e2? same position as before but black has no bishop. I do not understand why black played bishop e5 on 15. move
Rook takes bishop queen takes pawn with check and other rook coming to d file should be winning
7:30
sad to see white blunder here, after playing such a strong game. the move is Rd3, and the B escapes. (*)
but the problem started earlier, with Rd7+ at 6:45, when white should have focused on getting the other rook out.
BUT ...
when playing minor pieces vs. Q, with king safety not good, you MUST set up a fortress, with all pieces near the king, and protecting everything, and the Q is helpless. then slowly advance. so, at 5:12, the proper move is Be2.
(*) good to see that stockfish agrees with me.
How has he never seen bishop takes on c4 before? Isn’t that the trap?
Wow. It'll eventually turn out that every best line for black in the Stafford leads to mate. 🤣🤣🤣
Why didn’t he take the knight on move 11?
HES BACK
narrowly winning on time against much lower rated opponent... so it 's alive, but hardly ;)
Opponent was literally following Stockfish for great part so it hardly matters
@@aliensconfirmed3498 that's very true and I was jokingly bashing Stafford, not scientifically :) I know it works pretty well even against high rated players in short time controls, if they cant rely just on knowing theory.
Eric Rosen when he doesn't get views : Stafford Gambit
Yes it’s great how Eric gives us what we want!
PLEASE DO NOT TRY THIS IN YOUR HOME, SCHOOL, OR GARDEN.
Okayy it's Stafford time ❤
Why pawn didn't take knight on g5?
It blunders mate
Queen to f2 mate threat if pawn leaves f file
Back from the dead!
Oh No my Gambit!
good one
Oh no a zombie 😱
I would be so mad lol
OH NO REINCARNATION
Stafford Gambit time😁
stafford gambit isnt "alive", bad players are alive, any losing opening is "alive" if your opponent blunders
I will skip through and only watch the staffor parts
I guess you'll have to watch the whole video then 😁
@@eric-rosen I did 🫶
This is bullshit. I tried it OTB twice and opponents not knowing it played top engine moves. Eric shows only games when opponents blunder or he flags them. In real life you end up with +5 for white.
I’m a simple man: I see Stafford gambit, I like
First 🎉
