hi, do you give lessons? I'm a few months in I want to get to next level, I've hit a wall. thanks. do you charge?
@@fodolocraigo8426 He does, go onto to lichess coaches section,, and you'll find him. I think he charges about 40USD per hour but I'm not sure
Magnus has never beaten me .. just saying
100% win rate against Carlsen :)
:D
Not anymore... ;(
@@minachoi2012 wdym?
66% now .-.
66% pssh, pathetic. I never lost against carlsen.
„I thought i was playin‘ some random grandmaster“
I think i will never say that line…ever.
@@sponchtnb he most definitely did
yeh happened to me in real life, in finnish blizts championships at young age played against "some random im and i was really angry how i lost my big advantage on time in the end and i shouted and basically insulted him out loud how shit he is... and then my friend tells me he had like 600 elo rating above me ... but yeh xDD
Poseidon’s Mafia i mean theres like 1500 grandmasters alive sooo.
It's funny to hear "playin‘ some random grandmaster" from an IM
Yep... My chess goal will probably be to use that line and actually mean it
*Beats Carlsen*, "Okay, that was a nice start" XD Nice win
Eyy man love your content
Thanks man!
casually beating the washed up world champion
@@UnordinaryCarl Carlsen is still one of the best chess players to have ever existence in all of human existence. Only 3-4 players were probably better during their peak such as bobby fischer, gary kasparov, anatoly karpov, and maybe possibly mikhail tal. Maybe.
Carlsen would crush all of them in their prime, simply due to the advancements made in chess today. Talent is another debate though.
That moment when you accidentally enter Nightmare difficulty without realising

Congratulations.I appreciated your humble commentary.

But AlphaZero was on mobile, so it doesn't count

bruh, I can't even imagine myself saying "just a random grandmaster"
He beats Ben Finegold consistently, so I guess GMs are random to him. And honestly Eric is likely a GM in faster chess, but he is humble and never says it.
If he took the time to practice and norm hunt he could be a GM, finegold has said as much.
@@SuperAWaC what does norm hunt mean?
@@nl6526 when you win certain tournaments you can receive a "norm" and when you get enough of those you become a GM. check out the wikipedia page about fide rankings
It's speedchess
He's expert at it
When you accidentally set the difficulty on Nightmare but you finished it thinking it was on easy mode
"But Magnus was wearing flip flops so it doesn't count."
He played with only one hand
@@AlexanderWeixelbaumer he played using only 5percent of his brain
@@tariqhaashmi Do you understand what the one hand joke means?
@ki kus Have you ever played chess using both hands?
There was a dead fly in his light above the board
4:26, “I am playing too slowly”
In the meantime, Me barely able to keep up with all the moves O.o
Man, you are so magnanimous. Someone might have boasted that I beat Magnus Carlson and I am better than him but you are so humble that you give him credit that he might have lost because he was playing on mobile. You are not just a good chess player but also a very good human being too. Respect Man !!
I agree that Eric is humble but I don’t think anyone would claim to be better than Magnus simply cause they beat him once in 1+0 bullet lol
magnanimous, _adjective,_ one who has beaten Magnus.
Fr
Eric(and yasser seirawan) is the bob ross of chess
This is interesting, maybe there should be an anonymous tournament, all gms and super gms are not allowed to know who they are up against, and then only when the tournament ends all the informations are revealed.
*beating Magnus Carlsen with the Budapest Gambit does not exist*
Eric: Hold my pieces
ha good one (pieces instead of beer)
Granted, Carlsen premoved his knight on one of his first few moves and he certainly wouldn’t have done that if he had seen Eric’s move. I’m not saying the win was undeserved or anything like that, I’m just mentioning that.
6:52 I like how the annotator gave the Budapest's defining 2 ... e5 a "?!" as if it sets a trap.
@@rosiefay7283 hahahahaha
I’ve seen you in my yt shorts, keep up the good work!
3:23 That's why you won! His rooks can't move diagonally!
Hahaha... He wasn't trying to move his rook there though 🤣
@@diabl2master oh, I think quite the opposite
He wasn’t moving it diagonally
@@chaptap8376 it's a Joke you stupid
I couldn't even pretend to play chess that quickly. Just me randomly moving pieces around the board whether they are legal or not and I still wouldn't be fast enough.
I don't think I could spot one legal move that quickly.
2:48 "The ultimate goal is to play Carlsen. I don't care about beating him - I just want to play him." XD
Eric is so humble. Dude wins against the world champion, and keeps making excuses like "I had a psychological advantage"
When I played Eric, I was so nervous that I hanged my Queen in the 5th move, and then my morale just dropped. So knowing your opponent is strong can definetly make you play a little worse than usual. But congrats on winning, Eric!
I feel like you should get a trophy that says "I beat Carlsen with Black". Sure, he was in a car, bullet chess, etc. etc., but how many people have beaten Carlsen as black in _any_ situation?
according to the data on his profile he lost 42 of the 222 games that he played I assume all in that tournament. Can't say from what's in the video how many times he lost to black though.
According to his FIDE profile he's lost 67 games as white, with 304 wins and 242 draws, so against black that's 10.9% losses, 49.6% wins and 39.5% draws, obviously that's only official games though
According to his profile he was in a van...not a car.
@@112233JORDAN r/technicallythetruth
How can you know he was in a car?
Bruh first 3 minutes
“I hope I get to play magnus I’ve never played him before”
*Plays him
**Plays him first

@@thehumanpractice2985 *******************... (7.856e+992) ...********** Does not count that win
OMG YOU GUYS MAKE ME DYING 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭
Magnus still came 3rd playing on mobile, lol
He should have won, but it seemed like he had connectivity issues towards the end.
(He reached top spot a few minutes before tourney end but then dropped to third.)
Was he really mobile the entire tournament?
According to the Chess Network live coverage... he reasoned that he jumped onto a desktop after 30 min or so.
If you're the best doesn't matter if you're on mobile or not
I'm not a chess player, but why is paying on Mobile worse?
I found out abt you on the 4 player chess game with Agadmator. Now i watch your videos to listen to your kind voice hehe
If Carlsen knew he was playing THE Eric Rosen he would have been shaking
His username is EricRosen lol 😂
This is every chess players dream, congrats on this W!
Me now write
Blake Peaden they aren’t Magnus Carlsen though
Absolutely love your style of videos. It makes me realize how much I don't know about chess, yet I pick up so much from you. Thanks for the uploads
4:19 I wish I was that fast to recognize my mistakes in real life
What for?
Live on, you can change the future and not the past
Congratulations Master Eric, you beat the best player of the world!!! My englisk is very bad, but I want to say you, that psichogic is very important in a game, and you play so well, because not to know, that our oponent was Carlsen. Now study more for beat him more times!!!! Congratulations from Argentina!!
It's not that bad. I speak like this and I'm english
Thanks Incognito Boy
lmao
Como traductor y docente de inglés, puedo decir que tu comentario es completamente entendible para un nativo. Como ajedrecista aficionado, no podría estár más de acuerdo con vos.
Gracias Roulette 36
this was the video that introduced me to ur channel, have watched every vid since then, most humble RUclips out there
what I love is this demonstrates a concept I love in gaming. The best players still lose sometimes even against "lesser" (for lacknof a better term) opponents, and that's just part of the game. You're riding chaos to the finish line, anything can happen.
You're awesome, Eric. Looking forward to more instructive chess!
Eric you are such a humble and down to earth person. Even after beating Magnus Carlsen, you mentioned about his cellphone lag.
Just noticed that Magnus was playing in a car and his screen name was "Man with a Van." lol.
One of my favorite chess channels, you're really modest and soft. I love the content. Thanks so much for teaching.
Could you please do chess openings? I mean like basics up to move 8-12 of the openings...
Thanks so much for everything!
check out hanging pawns for that
1:37 "I thought I was just playing some random player". --> a random GM at that lol
*Beating Magnus by 5 seconds* "I'm up some nice time"...
From a rapid player's experience, I find that really amusing.
we have a british dude here
@Thomas Kirkpatrick curious
Lol when you accidentally beat the world chess champion
Yeah I hate when that happens to me :/
@@dalkap Yes, happens twice a day to me, it is annoying
@@leonl9123 I feel you man
So damn relatable it’s scary
Rosen you're the most relatable chess player out there. Just calm, smart, and even funny in a very natural way, I love everything you represent about the chess world and people in general. If everybody was like you the world would be a much more sofisticated and humane place.
Eric, you are one of the best chess streamers today in RUclips. Your videos are very informative, you take the time to explain your plans to us, you are very humble and down to earth, and you are super talented. Very difficult mix to find. Thank you for creating all these awesome videos.
Eric:*beats magnus carlson*
Also eric:"Good start."
I just discovered this channel, man u are so humble. Pure gold. +1 sub.
Well done! That's got to feel pretty awesome. It's been interesting to see your vidios along with others that you do videos with. Keep up the great work!
Ha ha fantastic! Look at that gleaming face. Eric can't hide his joy. And why should he. I didn't even watch this video yet except for the first 30 seconds, I have been watching your videos for a while and now I can't wait to proceed and watch this one.
Big congratulations, you're awesome. I hope this will further motivate you to do whatever it is you aspire doing.
"Letting time run out instead of resigning will result in a temporary ban!"
does that apply to bullet games though? less than a minute (e.g. 5 seconds) is not really a bad wait haha
@@MetaKnight68 not for bullet, no.
Great lesson here: if you disregard who you're playing, you can trust your own abilities and not get phased, regardless who is in front of you. If Eric knew who he was playing, he would have lost.
Congrats Eric!! Absolute legend.
Hello Eric! Congratulations, its like a dream for many of us!
i want to ask you if you can do a lesson of endgames? I found 1 old video, but maybe you can do another one, thank you!
Congrats !! Is awesome how happy you seem
Hi (Sorry for my bad english)
This profile.
I tried blowing off a hair strand from my monitor screen
Hi and Hello are perfect - no need to excuse. And the main point is always that everyone knows what you mean. So - I do know what you mean. And my english is far away from being perfect...
@@sushanttiwari7116 me too on my phone xD
@@kral3046 Du mich auch!
Ngl its nice seeing u so happy in the video pre-stream
Congrats Eric! Love your videos keep uploading.
Damn you can see how happy he is in the intro, this is awesome
Dude you just freaking beat the world champion, you should be so, so, so proud.
Man how happy you must be right now.
Nice win capitalizing on an opportunity Eric. Great commentary!
Give this man a GM!
Eric is so nice and humble
Congratulations Eric you're dream came true happy for you love from India
this must still feel surreal. congrats dude.
I have been watching your videos and I have never seen you this happy
im a bit surprise Carlsen had 166 wins , 42 losses 14 draws! and congrats to you
suspicious
You can see the wider smile Eric has in these videos xD. True happiness
Congratulations man! It makes me happy to see you so happy 😃 well done!
Never seen an IM as humble as you!!....keep up the good work man....
Congrats man :) You even got featured in one of Agadmators videos
Can i get a link
ruclips.net/video/yH2Yur0YuqI/видео.html
Who cares about agadmator's videos btw
a lot more people than any other chess youtuber ._.
wow you're so edgy
Yes, that's definitely a nice start
That smile says everything. Rarely is it so noticeable.
Congratulations on the win.
Saw this on Agadmators video and immediately went to rewatch your twitch stream. Didn't see your analysis at the end, so thanks for posting both. Great work!
actually i know that cuz i saw agadmator talking about it ..... good job ... play by teaching really brighten u up
... hope u be a gm
That's great! Not knwing who your opponent really is seems to be positive sometimes.
I used to love chess years ago, playing against my dad and his dad. Been decades since I last had a game. Found this vid by random and signing up to that website! Itching for a chess game now!
Love watching all your stuff. Well done. I can only dream!
"I will go back in time...after the stream" -eric rosen 2019
Congrats!!!
Ik right, it's a Real achievement!
Oh, yeah congratulations sir! I like your games and your approach! Well done! Greetings from Poland! :)
A big congrats to your win!
What's the score now 2 years later?
Eric: 2
Magnus: 1
The score is that Carlsen is the world champion and Eric will never even be a GM.
@@michaelwright8896 lol lighten up magnus fanboy
@@alexshadrake9615 Magnus is just better.
@@michaelwright8896 dude obvs everyone knows he's better, the original comment was tongue-in-cheek, you took it so seriously it's kinda embarrassing.
@@michaelwright8896 Eric just has Magnus’ number, just like Buster Douglas had Tyson’s number.
this deserves a GM norm xd
Congratulations !
I like your introduction.
2:49 So adorable. And ... congratulations on a wonderful accomplishment!
Man speed chess is satisfying to watch
Bro Eric is so humble he is not even a GM and beat #1, he's not even bragging that he won this is why eric is amazing :)
Nice win Eric,keep it up!
You are Legend Eric. I've improved my chess much better since I started following you.
man i’m 100% straight but eric is the most adorable person in the world
How and when do you think you can become a GM?
You're camera quality is amazing. I can see all of the details of your nose so clearly
very nice game, and congratulations not every day you play the champ and win
Wow.. You are officially a chess stud.. lol.. Don't care what anyone says.. to be the man you have to beat the man. Props bro.. hella props!!!
Congratulations IM Eric Rosen! I posted a comment on Agadmator's channel to this effect as well because he had asked whether it's an advantage for Magnus to play anonymously or a handicap? My point was this: had he played under DrDrunkenstein perhaps, as you said in this video, you'd have been nervous and not as focussed on the game. I dubbed this psychological element "The Magnus Effect" and I'm sure almost any player would be somewhat affected by this. Is it an advantage for Magnus? If his goal is to win LiChess tournaments of course he should use DrDrunkenstein and make his presence known and take full advantage of "The Magnus Effect". But is this his goal? ... First, he's known to win online tournaments and immediately donate the winnings back, so he clearly isn't interested in prize money. My feeling is his real goal is this: entering these tournaments anonymously might present the only opportunity to play against opponents whose play isn't suffering under "The Magnus Effect"! Maybe the only truly objective test of his skill he can get against human players on a regular basis!! This is likely more valuable to him than winning LiChess tournaments which, as world #1 ranked and reigning World Champion should be the surest bet any time he enters.
Maybe he was in a van on mobile with lag issues. Maybe you weren't hindered by "The Magnus Effect". But so what? You managed to not only play, but defeat the world champion! And even if he lost, at least he got to play you at your most focussed. Awesome result, congratulations.
hey sorry to burst your bubble, but the Magnus Effect already exists, it has to do with the way rotating objects move through air, and why when given a spin their trajectory change, Maybe dub it the Carlsen Effect instead.P.S sorry for the physics excursion.
Sure, Carlsen Effect, or Magnus Effect... World Champion Effect for the more general case perhaps? Since Chess doesn't involve rotating objects moving through a fluid I'm not sure there'll be too much confusion though... ;-) I suppose if Chess did have curve-balls, or something involving throwing rotating objects, more people who don't understand Chess would be willing to consider it a sport though... And who knows, maybe dodgeball-chess or frisbee-chess will be the next big thing! Then if you play that against world champion Magnus Carlsen, you'd have the Double Magnus effect!!
Jeremy Nasmith very well put, I agree with everything you said here.
@@yoyokojo651 LOL
@@yoyokojo651 I was about to say it lol.
Great video! I'm a chess newbie so all I could take away from it was that you seem like a really nice guy. gg
Congrats man hope one day you will be magnus and somebody else will post a similar video
"OoooK, that was a good start." Haha, if only you knew.
What place did you get?
And beating Carlsen, a world _master_, good job dude!
awesome video, i have a question on how to keep the focus during the game because some times i can play good and sometimes very very bad :D , i mean for example i been playing long maybe 25 years, some times i can go up to the 2200! and couple of times i break it to 2230 but suddenly after i drop to 1900, 1800, 1600!! like i cant keep it in almost fixed position!. appreciate your advice. thank you
Cool Eric all the best for your coming chess career 👍 😊 congratulations
You should play with Eric hanson
A little late to the comments lol but I just wanted to commend Eric for being so humble. Like if I beat the world champion, even in bullet, I would start the video with something like “Hey everyone, new world champion here...” LOL
Trying to his best not to be smug but clearly loving every minute of it 😂
That was such a great game though. You played solidly. Phone/bad connection or not, you fought a good fight. BTW, will you be uploading the whole stream to RUclips?
