They think they can fool with a few blunder moves And think that they can hide their cheating What do you expect from the 1300 anyway? Brilliant move? you kidding right?
@@drjoyrajghosh2271 it depends, 1300-1400 is intermediate level, someone is really good at the opening but lacks endgame skill, someone is good at endgame and bad in the opening.
Also if you frequently play against the engine and/or are used to analysing with it, then you will notice that it usually prefers some kind of plans over others.
The calm and rational language that Eric uses even when it's absolutely clear that the opponent is cheating, is just too good to watch. Total role model on how to handle an a**ole online.
My man could have probably just said "To force your knight to move" and would have been logical for his rating. It's a move I might do (because I'm low rated and not realizing the alternate danger that Eric pointed out).
Yeah I think Eric overestimated how that move looked. ~1700 rating here and it looked like a pretty decent move, forces the knight to move somewhere and baits an exchange at the cost of 1 pawn.
@@Dmckenzie6 I don't know man, putting your King in the bishop's line of fire against a GM vs a 1300 is asking for a nasty tactic that you'll never see coming. It makes sense in hingsight when you see there's no real danger, but to willingly move into the fianchetto against a GM is too poised and brave of a move for someone under 2000, imo
@@Alchemistic88 No see that's my point, a low enough player isn't even thinking about the fianchetto against a GM part. They're immediately just thinking of "How do I annoy that knight", and part of the reason they're low rated is because they're not thinking about all that nasty tactic stuff. Normally it'd get massively punished, but in this instance their short sightedness actually works.
As allways, Eric handled him like a boss and reserved judgement for the chat. Such a clever and constructive way to maintain the integrity of the channel! Btw, is this theory?
As much as i dont advocate cheating and scamming, the guy could have just made a new account and no one would know instead of all the begging and gifting subs for forgiveness from random people online...
I remember watching you before 2018 2017 and you were so humble about being a GM lol, now your finally loving your position of GM and it's awesome to see. Love seeing a fellow Canadian on top
He was using engine for entire game but mixing his moves with blunders sometimes. Even the opening with quick development taking control of center, 1300 don't play first ten moves like that
Permanent ban is just fine. Playing the emotional card once being caught works with your parents, not in real life with other people. The cheater has ot learn it. There is a saying in french, «faute avouée est à moitié pardonnée», admission of guilt only takes half of the blame away ;-).
I think the comments are missing the point of why Eric reacted and spoke the way he did. He did it because he didn't want the guy to not gift subs. If he immediately comes out and says the guy is blatantly cheating then there's 0% chance he will gift any subs. It will just scare the guy away Since he had already gifted ten subs, it was a realistic possibility he could get more subs out of the guy. Which he did end up doing, getting fifty or so.
A sub is $5 is that right? Also i just read something on twitch adressed to creators saying they should not make viewers feel guilty if they cannot subscribe or use bits, so maybe Eric is just following the rules. After all i feel bad for Jim, he looks young. I hope he didn't feel compelled to gift $250, wouldn't that be a serious case of psychological harassement.
@@elmad2153 Jim is a jackass who agreed to pay so he could play Eric and then tried to get out of it. Everything he did, he brought on himself. No one harassed him, they held him to his word and he is a wormy coward who tried to back out.
if this happened with Hikaru... Hikaru would literally turned his day into the worst nightmare... Eric obviously is by far one of the kindest and good hearted people out there.... Using people's kindness is a sin itself.
Eric's decisions regarding this cheater were quite level-headed and fair, to the point of allowing chat to vote for the outcome. Very professional way to ensure the standard for current and future followers of the channel imo
Though I think it’s better when a GM plays an engine accidentally with no odds. With queen odds, the game never really gets close. Even with the intentional piece sacs he’s still up tons of material.
@@huckthatdish not really because it balances out. If using an engine with no odds from start to finish with all pieces on the board, that could be harder than playing against the engine only in the last few seonds. Here Jim would play himself throughout the majority of the game and even make a ton of blunders at the beginning and wouldn't turn on the engine until there was seconds left. So I don't think one is better than the other. In fact, one could argue it would be more difficult playing with all pieces on the board against the engine from start to finish with all pieces on board vs only turning engine on at the last few seconds with queen odds.
I really smiled at the way Eric was emphasizing on the second crime... the subs! Like... DUDE, pay your bail already! You wanna be a big fraudster, get the cash ready, just like in the real world! Haha! Hilarious content! Also, people, come on, vote for the bail, support Eric's legitimate enterprise here! Hah!
If I were a GM, I'd be playing engines so much because I'd know that people want to see those games really badly and I wouldn't care if I lose over and over again because it would be for the entertainment of the fans. Not siding with Jim at all, this is a separate topic.
@@pedraumbass I don't think he knew before the game, but it was blatantly obvious after the first few moves. By 3:56 when the cheater played h5 there was no doubt he was making engine moves.
At this point, I assume some percentage of online chess is always cheating, so it’s interesting to see someone apologize and give subs for it. Normal trolls give absolutely zero effs.
My computer is my most frequent chess opponent. My goal when I play the computer is to avoid checkmate for as many moves as possible. I consider it a victory when I can actually reach the endgame. The computer does things to me like what we see in these games: moves that I can't make any sense of until I go back and do analysis, where I discover that the computer was slowly manipulating me into putting all of my pieces on the right squares so it could then spring a massive total annihilation attack twelve moves later.
This has been going on for quite a while. Subs refusing to pay after losing. First a sub promised Aman he would pay him after beating him a 1700 without a Queen. Then he started changing the rules.
Cool Fact: The VS that he uses in the thumbnail is a blacked out logo of VS Gaming - a South African competitve gaming organization under Telkom, th national ISP!l.
I love how the pro chess streamers play a 1300 and they're so positive about a string of strong moves. 1300s cannot shut down counterplay except for single pawn pushes. If you have to play often at that rating range (which I do as my time management is horrible at finding tactics) it's painfully obvious the cheating
Cheaters send to us to make us understand - no human is able to play any good chess. What human can do is play beautiful chess. Thats why we should make a points version of chess where awesome beautiful combinations values and u win by points not checkmate or time
This same question concerns football (soccer), but there is not (yet) robots, who can outplay human players. The best teams combine the efficiency and beauty of the game. It is extraordinary combination.
Eric definitely doesn't get enough credit for his humor. His sarcasm while taking the game seriously is so good.
I thought people followed him for his humour
His dry humor is amazing.

I don't even feel guilty for enjoying this

High elo GMs like eric ALWAYS notice when you are cheating
when a 1300 plays 96% accuracy against a gm, you already know they’re cheating lmao

im dying 😂

Cheater vs Eric is always cool 😂😂
The way he repeatedly says "Jim..." like he means "Jim please don't hurt me" is so funny.
Great video. Glad the guy admitted to it at the end. That’ll eliminate the “ how do you know he’s cheating?” Comments. Maybe lol
I love how you give him lots of "hints" that invite him to blunder in case he's listening.
Out of all the past cheater vids on this channel, this has by far been the MOST CRIIIINGE dude seriously
Would've loved this if, after the cheater's confession, Eric sombrely reflected for 10-15 seconds before shouting "GET HIM OUTTA HERE"
