Why you always looking really fast to the same areas in your room where the cameras can't see are you cheating by looking at other screens?
Why do you pin every comment that asks if you're cheating?
because it’s an important question that needs to be asked. Everyone has been thinking it for years but too afraid to comment. Don’t support these guys
@@chessbrah Well regardless you have my respect. Honestly it's not just you, but I think 99.999% of chess streamers that claim to be anything above let's say around 1700 are cheating. I love your channel and thanks for the response. 💪
@@alexhudson- Let me guess, your rating is ~750, right?
Also, why would you respect someone you believe is an habitual cheater, Sherlock?
@@foobarrel9046 No 963 currently. My highest in rapid was 1093 and I've been playing for a year
Lesson in the hippo: When the opponent shows too much resistance and resourcefulness, just mate
Eric's face followed by the slooooooow bishop gets me every time 21:29
Everyone at my uni hates me now since I started playing the hippo, thanks Eric!
I got fired from my job and kicked out of my house, I am now homeless ever since I starter playing the hippo
Dont support these guys
@@didierdupont5784 LOL
10:56 - Eric misses to snatch the hanging rook on f2 for free! OMG!!
I noticed that as well
Game went from +8.1 to 0 immediately lol
I appreciate that Eric addresses the "there's a faster checkmate" in chat and indulges in seeing what they have to say.
Since I've started playing the hippo I've noticed people observing my home from unmarked panel vans.
Finally, another episode. I was waiting for this one more than it was in case "games of thrones". Thank you, Eric so so much!!
I've watched Eric play so much now that if my make the same sounds as Eric while playing like "yeahhh" "sure" "lets open that bishop up" "the bishops are saying hi" my play improves by like 300 rating points I swear. I'm unstoppable
I started saying "oh my FUCKING goodness" because of Eric lmao
@@LitCactus hahaha
I agree. I love confidently saying “push” when the opponent lets me push a pawn
The GM looking at the ceiling in front of a naked dancer...I immediately thought of Hikaru! :D
More hippo speedrun inject it into my veins
Thanks for the series, I love to watch it :)
Thank you so much for these Hippo speedrun videos. They are excellent. About 2 weeks ago, The Chess Giant did a Hippo week series of YT videos. I would be very interested in seeing some games of both you and The Chess Giant playing Hippo games. That would be awesome, and probably the first such chess games posted on YT. Two good players, each playing the Hippo, or maybe one of you playing something other than the Hippo, because they think they have a good way to play against the Hippo. And I really don't care, interesting as it might be, if neither of you takes the time to do an analysis of your Hippo games, because those games just by themselves, would be so interesting to see.
I'm kind of amazed at how often 1600s are hanging full pieces.
1600 is not much better than ppl who just learned the rules
@@legu333???
@@garrison4173 call it what you want but real chess starts at 2000, under that you are really just pushing wood
@@legu333 thats why just 1% actually plays it
@@legu333 theres a thing called improvement lmao
Love your sly grin and slow moving of the piece to take the hanging queen. Now I just need you to upload more relaxing rapid for me to sleep
The "GM in a strip club" analogy was fckin jokes hahaha
Chessbrah is the best chess RUclips channel. Love you Eric and Aman.
“I can do ASMR for you too, but you never asked” 🤣🤣🤣
Loving this series
10:56 end games are good, but and games up a room is better Eric! Haha.
That checkmate around 39 minutes with the knight was NASTY
WE NEED MOREE
43:54 GM at a stripclub looking at the ceiling is hilarious
I feel like you elaborated on positions a lot more with this one. Maybe it's because the MMR is high enough now that you can and it isn't waiting for blunders but it's nice ty
@0:34 8.Qd2 - Any Hippo player knows with a bishop on e3, 8...h6 is needed. So maybe you forget, then after 9.Bh6 any Hippo player knows 9...0-0 and wait for White to take Bxg7 then ...Kxg7. But you are better off to keep the DSB with ...h6. Good thing Eric is a GM so he could still win the game against a 1600+ player after this blunder. @8:33 he's learning!
I beat the 1800 bot Wally with this opening after learning from you thanks lol
At 10:55 why did Eric Not play q takes f2 after black played rook h8?
I think he just missed it. Missed win.
He actually comments on it a few seconds later.
The first time i have ever noticed eric make a mistake with that rook 😅 i actually assumed there must be some reason why you didnt take it before you admitted to not seeing it
I'm new to chess and have been learning systems for only a few months now and my elo reflects my experience. My question is why is this system looked at as a novelty or a joke opening? I find it very resourceful and while it uses what seems to be a semi-closed position at times, it still seems to have some depth and sound theory. It may be basic but I think what you've demonstrated is that even at a higher elo it can be a sound simple-to-learn viable opening. I'm curious to see how high you can take it. Great series! thanks. I enjoy watching.
I don't think it's thought of as a joke, but I do think that people look down on "system" openings, because they think it's an indication of a lack of tactical vision and talent. That may or may not be true, but who cares? It's off beat yet tactically solid, which is more than enough for elo advancement in blitz.
Hippo is a bad opening
@@max-hi1bk it's fine for intermediate level players
@@mdoebs5946 then you need to accept that you are staying an intermediate player
@@max-hi1bk whatever weirdo, I'm just enjoying the series.
What is up with the aame playlist every episode?
thank u eric
14:48 - push back opponent's pieces
can someone please list all of the songs in this video?
Eric! My daily chess went up from 1200 to 1470+ in a few months and I'm not even trying. Hippo is op in lower bracket man!
game 1, wow, the confidence while walking on the edge...inspiring
24:45 hehehe now i understand why you didnt see the free rook
Rook hanging at 11:00?
Thought the same🤔
Oh, he noticed it just a few seconds later.
Chess goals : reach a point to make a comment to self like “ok this person is demonstrating resourcefulness, time to mate them”
37:00 - "When you have mate in 1, look for better!" - ChessBrahs' Rule #94
@29:58 i think the last name might be "goo-tee-AIR-rez" =o)
hippo - the hardest speed run yet!
uhhhh. botez gambit is was harder. you're down a queen.
Eric missing blunders from weak players bc he assumes his opponent will cover or move hanging pieces reminds me of Mango playing "shitters" in melee lmao
Or the Tarik vs Ludwig content. Strong players get so frustrated when less strong players make stupid decisions lol
Can anyone send me the link of playlist?
I know I'm a little late on this, but at 10:58 was QxRf2 not a good option?
Nvm. Literally 5 seconds later y'all caught it
Disappointed you didn't compete, would have been good to see you have some redemption from last week. Raz could have had a rest seeing as he performed so well already. Nevermind
What a legend!
The music is good ... even if it's not what we're getting on Twitch.
19:48 I was expecting knight E6 forking rook and queen. What is the reasoning behind not playing that move?
@@meltingseull but the bishop is pinned?
tell him to play more of opening themed speedruns.
hey buddy says play more of opening themed speedruns.
10:55 take that rook
12:30 music? please link
i missed out on cantina band :(
Ever since watching Eric Hansen exclusively and only playing the hippo or the French I went from 520 elo to 1100 and 1240 in bullet chess and I only play the hippo in bullet lol
I've been playing the hippo exclusively with black and white for the past couple weeks since you started the speed run....im enjoying trying to master it. still can't really get past 900. SMH. I'm terrible.
Would you like a couple of tips to hit 1500?
1. Play Daily games (up to ~5 concurrently).
2. Never move without >=5 minutes study of consequences.
3. Consider 3 alternate lines to a depth of 3 moves each.
4. Do >=30 minutes of puzzles daily - time is unimportant, accuracy is everything.
5. Study few openings, but go in depth.
6. Have fun!
1750 before hippo speed run, 1925 now
What Playlist is this??
Take yout time 37:28
Makes it look so easy. By the way, I didn't know you had a twin.
10:56 is that not a free rook? why did you not take it? am i missing something?
15:34 😆
That 1st game was touching cloth for quite a while - Eric was relieved to find the Rook-fork which saved his bacon!
PS: I got inspired by this series to play the Hippo and saw my rating drop by 500 ELO in a month, to 2300, so am disappoint and thinking to take up checkers instead. Be warned!
39:00 exquisitely beautiful
"gotta defeat the system players" while playing a system ...
17:18 ptdr moi ca marche pas comme ca en général
random recommendation, but I think you will like "n++ OST" hippo boy
I gained like 200+elo from playing the hippo ty so much upload faster please
38:44 for maximum cheese :D
Awesome mr handsome ;)
Is Dr. O originally from Colombia?
how do 1700 players continually play like 900s. I will relate with great authoriity that the 900s I play against rarely/never make a lot of these mistakes.
Eric likes his opening like he likes his women.
With a real nice pair.... of bishops?
Early development? Steady on fella
Really passive and submissive
Tight tight tight
Guys he likes his hippo. But if you want to get into It he also likes to open up the middle and dominate with the long diagonal.
Is the rook hanging or am i crazy? 10:57
Yup, even GMs miss things sometimes.
He noticed it a few seconds later.
mmm 7:50 gg...
Calculating lapdance variations just to get a long variation wrong variation
Bruh do the 900s I play against play mistakes like these 1600s and I just don’t notice them??
No, they play even worse mistakes and you don't notice them.
Guaranteed they make even worse mistakes and with a greater frequency but so do you so it cancels out. Not being a prick that's just chess at that ELO.
No, mate. They don't most of the time
at 1100 they do
Ngl, I’m a true 900 pleb. Just wish I didn’t blinder or hang pieces as often haha
27:22 - Eric misses to snatch the hanging knight on f6 for free! OMG!! He is too busy into thinking of doing ASMR on a twink?
Problem with Eric is that he is too good and see good move in mind and play according to that and miss their blunder
Exactly lol
Egg
I was praying for u to win 😔
mann is it free rook day ? :D
let's goo
That was a fun watch, but I'm going to take his advice and not support these guys
He hung a rook @10:55 🤣🤣 no way you missed that
I paused for 2 minutes trying to work out why he didn't take lol
