Eric’s Bullet Speedrun (2400-2600)

[@34_Hour_Reset]

Eric’s catchphrases and commentary have been making me laugh hysterically since the first time I discovered the channel … some people just have the gift of funny 😂

235 games with no losses.. incredible and a blast to watch

[@Martin_Edmondson]

@David Davesby Nah, he is just a regular (very good) GM. The super GM's are a step above him. He can hang with them at times.. but they are a bit better. He needs to harness his inner weeb.

[@Catman-san]

@@Martin_Edmondson Strong GM is the term you're looking for

[@user-420i]

Playing bullet Eric is also at least a solid 3000

[@Martin_Edmondson]

@David Davesby Oh absolutely, he is a very good player no argument there. A strong GM no doubt. Just the (unofficial) super GM level starts at 2700.. Not quite at the very top yet.

[@maxkho00]

@@Martin_Edmondson He is superGM-level online, though.

[@lricheychess5123]

I've been stuck at this rating level for a while. Very instructive! Great job as always BRAH!

[@pugsondrugs6556]

Unbelievable to get to the mid 2000s in bullet time control with no losses OR draws

When Eric screams "SURE", it always make me laugh ahahah

[@MiSTeRJoKe96]

I waited weeks to see this video, mainly every video of you against 2k+ was gold for me! I would love a new series after this with YOU ERIC playing 1+0 bullet with queen odd, it will be amazing to see it!

[@jaerik99]

This is.. extremely impressive. Well done man

[@rexterinc.639]

finally the speedrun series ❤️ thx.

[@manawearblack]

Eric's outro makes me cry every time man it's hilarious 😂😂😂

15:13 “Look at these juicy juicy, white holes” -Grandmaster Eric Hansen

[@MrBlueSleeves]

Is this theory?

[@traviss7740]

these are definitely some of my favorite games Eric has played. He's so incredibly talented when he's in a good mood. It seems to go the other way too when he's up against someone like Hikaru though, he sells himself short for sure.

[@rithessa]

love this series. Eric is a machine

[@TheNameOfJesus]

Eric, I really didn't think you could do this today. You've just earned more of my esteem. And you were already riding high on my esteem from this year's chess tournaments.

[@MiSTeRJoKe96]

11:40 start of an antichess (chess variant) game

[@shahrulnizam3770]

As the time progresses eric somehow gradually is transforming from central asian to eastern asian

[@cptnoremac]

What I like about Eric is his humor feels natural, like he just has these thoughts come to him on their own. A lot of guys who want people to think they're funny just act overly colorful and tend to be like "Mreh? How about that joke, guys? What a clown I am!" Tryhards.

[@TheToxicBishop]

Did someone just call out IM Levy Rosman?😂

[@cspell]

Awesome stuff Brah, can't wait for the next one

[@ArminKullaOfficial]

Eric: crushes everybody at chess Also Eric: hesitates to add up 8 + 5

[@weetabixharry]

...while playing a game of high-level chess, while streaming to a live audience. It's harder than it looks. For example, have you ever tried doing mental arithmetic while walking? It sounds easy, but as you increase the difficulty, you'll eventually find you stop walking in order to solve the math problem.

[@TheChessNeck]

"Some people are born with chess names" lol that is so true. my name is Bret, so I cannot relate.

[@god0fgames100]

Here I thought they would've gotten their names after birth but apparently great chess names come straight outta the womb.

[@guy9146]

It’s okay Bret… Eric can’t relate either. 🤣

[@kdani256]

To my German speaking fellows: Bret was born to be a Schachbrett :D

[@originaljungle]

there's something extremly fascinating watching GMs doing speed runs

[@TheChessNeck]

All my speedrun's go the opposite direction lol

@ 36:57 why not take the knight with a check?

Well, he ended advancing that pawn till promotion and getting a Queen, so, maybe that's why he didn't want to take that knight, he saw a good future for that pawn
