@@BobbyFischer0000 We all know Eric plays calm, positional chess OTB and when an online game calls for it. It's probably his natural style. But you can't deny some of his most famous content is playing pure barbarian chess ... he's been known to berserk and play Jerome.
@@BobbyFischer0000 since you seem to be a conoisseur, please tell me which chess content creator truly has an unhinged aggressive style, cause I love that.
I was yelling at the screen for how obvious it was. 2100 with 2 minutes on the clock doesn't see the queen on the same line as the rook for 20 seconds straight? Insane =D And then he lost everything. Having a minute at the end. Someone had a terrible day.

25:43 this game was insane. Forgetting that you’ve beserked with only :30 seconds left in an evenish position when he’s at 2:30… and then cleanly getting a win with almost all premoves.. great.
All this whole video proved to me is that Eric plays better without thinking than i ever would with hours to contemplate. Also: he unironically plays better when rushed.
I would say he plays more creatively than better. Because when he has time he plays more cautiously and doesn't take risks. When there is no time there is nothing to lose. :]
At 26:44 he missed Ng5 though, threatening to take the locked bishop and Black can’t take back with the king bc of the rook discovery, and Black’s rook on f8 is trapped. He could have had an endgame with a rook up rather than a pawn up.
At 16:59 Eric said "I could have been in a lot of trouble there" as he was missing Qf7 mate. At the end of the game he must of read it "did I miss mate in one?" BUT he could have forced mate several times after it missing mate in two several times even as his opponent knew and was trying to get away from the mate in two sacrificing all his pieces for the life of his king. How noble.
Please PLEASE make another compilation of your mouse-slips/mistakes lol. Your voice is so calm and tranquil, that when you goof it's HILARIOUS 😆. You had me dying at 1:10:20
So many iconic games, from the budapest knight gambit to the epic finale (that still counts in our hearts, Eric, even though it might not count for the tournament). Absolutely love these, they are so much fun!
Let me guess... you were kidnapped, and the kidnapper said that you will be released if Eric posts an all-gambit tournament video in the next hour, so you ended up getting out alive?

Favorite game for me was the last one even tho it didn't count towards the tournament lol. I was alrdy so hype at u pulling the win and then that endgame finish for ur last game was classy af xD
Ok so it just go missed by both players, got it Interesting how someone as bad as me noticed it (still had to gao back and pause since I wasn't sure), time pressure really does the game when playing blitz
It was honestly painful seeing him miss it twice. I felt sorry for white as being up a piece and a queen against a titled player even in blitz should be enough to win.
Eric if you see this, I'd love to see you do a youtube video on the grand prix opening! In the video, you said it's nice to play in fast chess, and that's the best kind imo
"knight chilling on h7" Man i dont know why but to me, when eric speaks or whatever chess position im looking at, it almost seems like its some knight speaking to me. Or if not, the knights seem to give some kind of spirit to the position on a emotional level. Anyone else sharing this knightsperience?
Offering a draw in a losing position is bad sportsmanship and somehow also an insult to the opponent's intelligence. It's as if they imply that Eric is incapable of seeing that the position is winning.
every time an opponent refuses Eric's Stafford gambit despite it being an utterly bad position for black I'm not sure whether to be happy or sad. I guess it's great that his reputation precedes him and scares people into bad moves but it's sad that we don't get to see a wild Stafford game

The disparity between Eric's calm demeanour and his unhinged aggression on the chess board is one of the great paradoxes of our time.

Favorite game was definitely the "oops I dropped a piece" gambit opening followed by frantic play until "I'm up a pawn, how did that happen?"
"And now you're winning, how did you do that?" -Levy
Crazy because eric blundered his queen on move 20 and 21 but his opponent didn't see it lol
True haha idk how I forgot about that one xD.
i love when he scream THE ROOOOK in lowercase 1:20:36
Aggressive dubious chess is peak Eric Rosen content
Always super happy when a new vid drops. You're like the most chill dude on RUclips
1:11:39 Eric blundered has queen for free two moves in a row with Be6+ but opponent missed it two times in a row

Got lucky at 1:11:26 - Be6+ would have picked up your queen!
Eric’s videos are the only thing on the internet that calms me down. Love this guy
Alternative titles: “Watch Eric play in time trouble”
Or
“Watch Eric outpost knights.”
The opening on 1:18:00 the rooookkk I sometimes play, and honestly it works 9/10 times once taking the knights. Love it!
Always a joy to watch! Win or lose, it's good stuff to study.
Bout to gambit my grade
Oh no your gpa
Same

Your videos are a big help to me. They calm me down in times of major stress. Thank you Eric ♥️.
Me, too. Eric's positivity and calmness is grounding.

At 1:11:26 isn't Eric's queen hanging, for several moves, if white's light-square bishop gives a check on E6 with a discovered attack from the rook?
Yeah it does, lol
I love seeing all these aggressive openings work out for Eric! Any time I try to play like this I end up gambiting my king ._.
So many iconic games, from the budapest knight gambit to the epic finale (that still counts in our hearts, Eric, even though it might not count for the tournament). Absolutely love these, they are so much fun!
You are the only chessplayer I can Watch for this long
1:10:19 The Rosen Variation of the Budapest Gambit was introduced in this tournament. It eventually wins a pawn by force...
At 1:11:50 why was bishop e6 not played? Wouldn’t white win blacks queen with a discovered attack? Or am I missing something.
Those games were crazy Eric great content. Well done on your win
My favorite game of course this hilarious knight sack for a modern budapest glorious impro!!! Thanks for the good content!
I just spilled my water all over the place watching that last game...
Bravo ! Congrats on another great win !
Love it! Classical Eric Rosen madness
Rosen saying 'Reese's Pieces' all of a sudden made my day lol
real life oh no my queen at 1:11:27 🤪
Poor Blitzek, thought he had it in the bag. Eric never played him, but he's the one who ultimately got Berserked 😆
1:20:00 there should definitely be a rosen trophy for "queen sac is only legal move"
P
Long watch is always worth the time
When I gambit it tends to be accidental :) great video!
Ah, the ol' "oh shit my queen" gambit
1:01:10 funny line Rd8 instead of a5 still threatening Bxa2 because if b3 Ba3 is mate 😅
I love gambiting my ELO, always strategic
You won't understand why Eric but thanks I really needed this ❤️

The first player offering a draw in a totally losing position was pretty gold.
I especially liked the mouse slip "gambit." Very entertaining!
39:47 isn't Rg1 mate in 1?
Wuhuuu I’ve been waiting for a new video! I’ve watched everything video like 4 times already and need something new to sleep to
Loved the back to back GPA

1:25:14 Words to live by. These gambit / aggressive style videos are always good fun. Thanks for your hard work and dedication!
Hi, good tourment. I like the "THE ROOOOOKKKK" ... ^^ Really nice.
Epic Eric strikes again 😍
I don't understand, isn't Be6+ winning the queen for white at 1:11:30 ?
Yes it is
Ok so it just go missed by both players, got it
Interesting how someone as bad as me noticed it (still had to gao back and pause since I wasn't sure), time pressure really does the game when playing blitz
I definitely like seeing Eric work is magic after accidentally dropping a piece with a mouse slip
To come back from a 30 point deficit is something I could only dream of. Eric GOAT Rosen at work again.
Fave game was def the Budapest mouseslip where you clawed victory from your opponent !!
That was incredible, great video
An ad after every game is insane
I like this gambit streams, but i would also like to see more insturctive only mainline streams. But idk if it is popular opinion.
1:31:10 was awesome
Final game was epic though it was not counted.. And the budapest gambit with piece odd was also very very satisfying..👏👏👏
1:11:27 --- why doesn't the opponent play the light-square bishop check and win the queen plus other tactics?
he missed it, twice
It was honestly painful seeing him miss it twice. I felt sorry for white as being up a piece and a queen against a titled player even in blitz should be enough to win.
He plays chess like Bob Ross paints
Hell yeah been calling him the Bob Ross of chess for a while, wish it would take off lol. IMRosen moar liek IMRossen amirite
17:36 I think you missed mate in move 47. Rh6 is mate, right?
oh no my next hour and a half
45 minutes*
Plays realistic like the majority of chess players and wins. Very refreshing! THANKS
This is a type of content from Eric Rosen I would always click and watch the whole damn video!
These videos are the best
New twist on the Budapest! LOL!
I LOVE GAMBIT VIDS LETS GOOO
Add 2:56 Nxd4 looks strong for black too :)
17:37 heart rate 999

hey, there is this lecture by Eric ruclips.net/video/rnm7yXtx6yw/видео.html in which iirc he talks also about the grand prix attack
Find the best move for white at 1:11:30
0:17 yeah it's not strange at all,him and some other masters join every arena and never play. I just hope lichess doesn't have anything to do with it.
1:11:27 Wasn't that just a free queen for white with the move bishop e6?
Rough to offer a draw only to lose 11 points of material in the next couple seconds.
"Splay this." - Eric Rosen
1:17:02 How did neither player see the obvious *16.e8=Q+ Re8 17.Be8+* winning the exchange?
Isn't rock g8 is a check mate 39:46
What a finish!
Anish Giri taught me this * draws game *
Lmfao
1:11:27 you hang your queen after Be6?? Block check or move and Rxh4… I saw it almost instantly when you moved the queen and I’m a 13 hundo
You hanged it three times and ur opponent missed 3 times😢
Knight odds game was my favourite
Last game was crazy
At 58:52 why not g6 and qh7# or qh8#?? Why is f6 different from f5?
After fxe5+ it's difficult to see if Eric can get his king safe. I haven't really analysed, but more Black checks are coming.
Eric "It's crazy, I think i'll do that"
Weird seeing Eric keep forgetting that he's berserking.
I wish I knew Eric in person. I know he would increase my chess game by proximity.
Always love a good Logitech Gambit
1:20:44 is my favorite game
same, it's so good

god, I love this
Excellent!
Am i trippin at 59:20 or shouldn't have g6 also have worked?
Love you're not playing the old Stafford gambit
Offering a draw in a losing position is bad sportsmanship and somehow also an insult to the opponent's intelligence. It's as if they imply that Eric is incapable of seeing that the position is winning.

1:17:11 that middle game tho
oh no my afternoon!
I do prefer risking pieces and played a fun game than a boring opening line, even if I lose the game.
58:53 g6👀
I had a dream that I would live until Eric rage quits a chess tournament after a loss. Am I immortal?
