30:00 It's called the Greek gift in reference to the Trojan horse.
@@brutusduran8592think of it like this: the bishop opens the door, then the actual trojan horse arrives
Is it really? I thought it was named after Gioachino Greco (Greco=Greek)
Beware of Rosens bearing gifts
It's definetly a reference to the Trojan horse. Remember that the Trojan horse was a "gift" from the Greeks *to* the Trojans.
I think it's a *double* reference to Greco and *timeo Danaos et dona ferentes*.
Eric dropping episodes faster than im dropping blitz rating!
"Let me clap and I'll undress," great spicy magic trick eric :)
Especially good for parties 🎉 =D
IM not only stands for International Master, but for Internet Magician as well.
Can’t wait for that to get put into an out of context chess video
we need more undressing Eric
0:07 If Eric had clapped just one more time, we would have had to invoke Family Settings.
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
1453 is when Constantinople fell. Coincidence...? Yes.
That transition was *chef kiss*
Was it?
@@gw6667yes
When he said he was going to undress, was hoping it was Only Fans content
how did he do that
@@umamifriendsblack magic.
Amazing how quickly the threats overwhelmed white starting at 24:20. Very instructive!
This is my favourite series on RUclips
Eric, your sharing of your thought process is the power behind the glue that makes this series absolute award-winning! I've carefully reviewed comments with my likes pined to every episode, and I find this fact to be universal with your entire audience! Such a winning formula #1. Mucho Thanks Always. Mike.
a few episodes earlier you asked how many episodes the viwer watched from the series, but i was occupied by my doggo... so now here i am, telling to you and everyone: when i realized you have a series like this, i started from ep1, and still going trough it. for everyone there are a lot to learn even from the begining. thank you for the previous and the forthcoming lessons.
Omg this serie is getting better and better
Big up to mr Rosen thank you for sharing your thoughts with us we are improving thanks to you❤
Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes - beware of Greeks bearing gifts. As others have mentioned it's a reference to the Trojan horse.
In the last game, after dxe5, black has the very nasty nc5 - counterattacking the bishop and threatening to take with check. Crazy how there's often a hidden defensive resource with the Greek gift.
One of, if not the, most valuable chess teaching series on RUclips. Another amazing episode.
I really like your calmness and how you manage to explain your calculations while playing. Thanks for your videos, they are very helpful. I love to much this playlist.
Eric I just wanted to thank you for being and inspiration to me. In one day of watching your videos I started beating higher ranking opponents than me. Appreciate you Eric.
I’ve watched all of the series in the last few days, thank you so much for putting time and effort in an instructive and interesting series
lol that transition was so corny but so you i love it
I'm in the sad part of my chess journey where for some reason I'm just not able to climb to master as fast as Eric.
I love the way you talk through your thinking. I learn a lot from this.
He also thinks through his talking.
love the series and your slower calm educational insights
Great video man. Love the way you explain your ideas and moves.
This has been my favorite series since I started watching you play. Thanks Eric!
I believe the bishop goes first because the Trojan Horse was a religious offering. First the excuse, then the gift, then the hard fall of the sword
Love your videos Eric. You’ve got incredible analysis skills!
Despite many attribute the Greek gift's name origin to the Trojan horse myth, some people suggest that it might be a reference to Gioachino Greco, since "Greco" is literally "Greek" in Italian and many of his games/compositions feature the Greek gift.
That makes sense. It explains why it isn't called the "Trojan Horse," which always seemed to me a more appropriate name for a "gift" that come back and bites you.
As of the start of this video you have officially surpassed my all time peak rapid rating, without losing a single game. I am officially quitting. :P
Climbing to master is certainly a lot faster and easier when you're already a master ^_^
Don't quit!
This Greek gift goes back to the war between Greek and Trojan , when the Greek give them a horse as gift and the Trojan accepted this gift but there were Greek's soldiers in the horse that caused the gate of city open to the Greek troops which leads to conquest the city by Greek.
Yay, thanks Eric - watched every episode!
Awesome as always!🎉
*Ruy Lopez:* A popular chess opening.
*Wry Lopez:* A comedian named George.
*Rye Lopez:* Jennifer's favourite sandwich.
erics voices ability to sound the same at any playback speed
Fair play to Eric for being a human and not always finding the best move. The explanation of the thought process is still highly instructive .
Great stuff! Thanks!
Excellent video as always!
9:36 black had king f7 winning your queen.
clapping for sudden wardrobe changes- brilliant
You're an excellent Tutor Eric, cheers. All the best regards from here on the West Coast side of Australia 🌏🇦🇺🙏🖖🤟🐨👽
nice to know another sangroper listens to Eric.
The phrase “beware of Greeks bearing gifts” was spoken by Laocoon referring to the Trojan Horse the Greeks used during the Trojan wars. The trojans accepted the gift which was full of warriors who opened the gates for the defeat of Troy.
29:45 it comes from the expression "do not trust Greeks bearing gifts" in reference to the story of troy and the trojan horse.
I can't tell who's enjoying this series more, me or Eric 😂. Especially as he climbs the elo ladder, it seems like he's really having a great time playing these games. And quite honestly probably learning more than me (whose primarily watching for the entertainment value)
Anyways this is my favorite RUclips series by far. Go Eric!
That second game was spectacular.
Thank you on game 4. I’ve reached the pre-h4 position a number of times and haven’t recognized h4 or understood the advantage after reviewing those games.
Thank you sorry much for this amount off amazing content
hands down the best chess guy on youtube for explaining moves etc
YAY!!!!
I've been waiting so long for you to start playing the Ruy Lopez. Thank you sir, may I have another?
Amazing games. Some of those opponents are really getting strong. Can't wait to see around 2000 elo !
Some great games in this ep
I was screaming “you have to take the knight first!!!” in that third game because it can guard the a2 square. Glad the post game analysis showed that.
Also I should probably channel my inner Eric and calm down but I’m very invested in this interesting winning streak. 🧐
I love to see some Spanish and wow, I've never seen ...f6 being played like this at my 1300s, but I would just go into d4 blindly not realizing the Noah's Ark trap possibility. Devious variation, nice to keep this in mind. Oh my god and the other games were also just mind-blowing. Thanks Eric for this great series.
Very instructive games, I really enjoy this series and as a 1600 rated player for 10+0 I’m learning a ton.
About the Greek gift.. In ancient Greece there was the famous Trojan horse, a huge wooden horse that was offered as a gift by the Achaeans to another then Greek tribe, the Trojans, but inside it was full of warriors! of course he was a horse and not an bishop but maybe it has something to do with the deception of war and the "free" sacrifice of the bishop in this case 😊
That magic trick was much wilder to see done live on twitch!
Conclusion: to reach the 1500 rating, play at the 1500 rating level
wow the last game was amazing
It is a greek gift because it is El Greco's signature sacrefice.
Back 2 back videos! It must be Christmas.
I've played that h4 idea to make the greek gift work a lot, and I knew when there is 2 knights looking at f6, you should get rid of one before sacrificing on h7, because they can sacrifice back and defend, and you don't have any advantage
First game: way to punish f6 could be checking with queen. Forced pawn g6 and then it brakes structure a bit
Thanks!
Thanks so much!
spicy!
Greek gift I think is named after the strory of the Horse from Trojan
Let’s go Eric!
9:00 Instead of mindlessly sacrificing the bishop, dxc2 was playable after which Qxh8 + is met with Kf7! to trap the queen and at the same time threaten to promote the pawn or capture the knight. Concidering the fact that Eric took the rook later, this could have happened as I showed if the opponent were paying more attention at that point.
nice!
One honest question:
Does someone can use engine full time to play online like this?
Even in bullets?
When the Greek gift becomes the Italian retreat.
Oh no, my rook!
Hi Eric, i am a big fan, watching all of your speedruns, i was wondering which microphone you use…
Spicy quacks!
9:34 I think your queen would be trapped if your opponent had played king to f7 but you would still be winning anyway
Edit- I commented before you even mentioned it xD
27:53 proud of myself for finding h4 here too!
Hey Eric! can you try the Philidor next time? thanks
I think this series should be called a tutorial instead of a speedrun. It's less about going fast, and more about being educational
It's a reference to Naroditsky's speedrun series (which is also not fast, but it's a facetious name)
"it was a fun game!" :)
It’s always cool when Eric is finding lessons as well in this series. Both teacher and students learning at the same time!
I think I have very few episodes until this account overtakes me hehe. Great content as always Eric
The Greek gift is Named after Gioachino Greco
But some combine it with the Trojan Horse as the greek gift
Spicy magic trick
The "Greek Gift" would have been a more appropriate name if a knight were offered instead of a bishop. In this case, Eric should have taken the knight on d5 first. It might come up when he gets to the analysis, but after 11.Bxh7+ Kxh7, 12.Ng5+ Kg8, 13.Qh5 (or Qd3), black can play N5f6. If 14.exf6, then Nxf6 keeps the h7 square defended. With 11.Nxd5, black cannot keep h7 defended and will have to resort to some other approach to defend against the attack. It won't be easy, and it won't come cheap.
Incidentally, black could have avoided the Greek Gift by moving 10... Nc5 (instead of Nd5). White can't initiate the attack with the knight sitting on f6, and if he plays exf6, then black can take the bishop. If white withdraws the bishop to c2, black has Qxd1, and the attack is over.
OK, I see that he did get to the reason to take on d5 first in the analysis. So far, he hasn't mentioned black's 10... Nc5 option. I hadn't looked at the line 11. Bxh7+ Kxh7, 12.Ng5+ Kg8, 13.Nxd5. It's interesting, and I probably would have missed black's Qa5 response.
Another thing it is worth noting in the situation after 10... Ne5 is that black might be tempted to think he can get out of the trap with Bxg5, but after hxg5, the rook provides the support for the queen to mate on h7 or h8, so that doesn't work.
The name Greek Gift is a reference to the Trojan Horse
you were far too pleased with that transition lol
Game 3, surely it's called the greek gift because the bishop sac is a Trojan horse, no?
I've always thought that the name Greek gift was referring to the Trojan Horse because it was placed kind of inside the enemy's territory and they didn't quite see it coming, just like in chess, it can be overlooked, this idea, especially by weaker players and it's also in the heart of your opponent's "army", the king is the most important, do idk, I'd actually be surprised if it were something else
In the first game, in the middle game when the black queen got pinned to the king, the black should have played bishop e4?
Can you do this speedrun, only Drawback Chess?
I miss seeing your Christmas sweater collection
Thank you for the ruy lopez
14:10 Be3 is the best move here for white, because it wins back the pawn. Qe7 lost a lot of advantage
Eric claps.
Shirt comes off, lights go low, music plays bow-chicka-wow. Botez sisters stop everything to tune in, 'cause boy got rizz!
The Greek gift comes from the Trojans war where the Greeks gave the trojans a gift but it was a trap. Greeks = white pieces. Bishop = gift. And by trojans accepting the gift they were defeated
In the thumbnail you remind me of Mr. Bean.
I like Mr. Bean
It's called the "Greek gift" because it is reminiscent of the Trojan Horse.
I don't want to be too hard on the opponent in the last game, but that was a very rich position with a sacrifice that didn't quite work and Eric's opponent thought for less than a minute and a half for the whole game - including blundering a mate in two. It shows that many players, even up to 1450, only play moves on instinct and don't bother even to try to calculate variations. I suspect they win games with no increment against people who do think through the variations, but then run short of time and can't convert the win.
Yeah, now that i think about it the Greek gift should be to give away a horsey for a tactical victory
At 2:00 how about knight to h4? With the idea of coming with the queen to h5 ...
In the first game at 7.33 instead of bd2, why not q×g7?
Eipisode starts, “let me clap and I’ll undress”
*Clap*
The coffee shop got wierd for some reason
16:21 here you could've played knight takes and queen f6, threatening taking the knight or mate?
if white plays bishop e3, you just develop normal, but 17:04 here doesn't queen f6 just win
Spicy 🌶️😏
