It was around 230 L of tea, incase anyone was curious.

[@cameronhendricks5967]

One of those goated comments that made me scroll back up and watch chess

[@TVGUY333]

In the many, many hours of Eric's KZbin videos that I have watched, Eric has never done anything that annoyed me. I'm not good at writing compliments but that is saying a lot.

[@conman1395]

He's a perfect example of why being just a normal, good person is good content too. You don't have to be a "personality" that you sell

[@ashtimbog]

very refreshing

[@AtomicHaze]

Literally watching this as I fall asleep, listening to him taking about how people do that... dunno what to say man, it's a soothing voice and getting to follow the games in your head as you comment on board position is like counting sheeps

[@timothyLucasJaeger]

39:16 I hear this a lot from chess analysts: when the eval is +3 they will say it's like a whole minor piece, but the engine will evaluate a minor piece up as +4 to +5 (e.g. take a knight out of the starting position and check Stockfish), presumably because it sees not only the material advantage, but also how much more advantage the side will gain from best play by using that material advantage.

[@sistemann1234]

There is no “material advantage” aside from the advantage you get from using that material advantage.

[@timothyLucasJaeger]

@@sistemann1234 Maybe i could have phrased it better? What i mean is that if we are up a knight now, the computer will see how in 20 (or however many it can see) moves we will also, say, win 2 pawns (by virtue of using the extra knight) so it will put the eval at +5 instead of +3. The additional advantage obtained over the next 20 moves doesn't need to be a material one, of course. It could instead be positional/strategic advantage.

[@prussia9255]

It's kind of arbitrary in that the better the computer/higher the depth, the greater the advantage given by the engine will be. In reality a perfect engine would just evaluate the starting position down a knight as purely winning.

[@timothyLucasJaeger]

@@prussia9255 Assuming, of course, that it's actually winning. All evidence we have points to that conclusion, but, lacking a perfect engine (strong solution), no one really knows that.

[@samiesta9996]

It's all relative to how you use the pieces. I have seen engines give only a +1.6 or 1.8 after winning a whole piece.

[@PHILPAF]

I fall asleep to you talking almost every night. My wife was annoyed with it at first but has accepted it by now. You have a calming voice.

[@carmangreenway]

Wife said it's her or Eric. Sacked my queen for a king😂

[@codymarlowe2679]

5:00 That's the best part, educational and relaxing.

[@arashkamangir331]

I would have given that first player 30 seconds back

[@Tape_Recorder]

4:48 He was talking about falling asleep to his voice as I was falling asleep to his voice. Everything felt right with the world.

[@atsubbie8876]

Eric had one of the best voices I’ve ever listened to. Thanks for helping me sleep and learn chess Eric!

[@mfbx9da4]

Yes Eric! Do some audio voice over! You can just pick a book you want to read anyway and just record it! I also enjoy watching your videos before bed. Sends my girlfriend straight to sleep though

[@GaryTheGray]

I find it a lot of fun trying to predict the next move. These were very enjoyable to watch.

[@squidysquidaee5183]

Mr. Rosen you’re such a good dude and I enjoy your gameplay I think watching you when getting ready for bed is just a beneficial bi-product very relaxing just naturally please don’t change!

[@dzinypinydoroviny]

You seem to be drinking from the type of mug that holds approximately 1/3 litre of liquid. Let's say you drink 2,5 cups of tea every day. 365 × 5/6 = 304.something litres a year. Which, by the way, is very similar to my consumption.

[@anond2015]

People always seem to think a glass / mug of a drink is 8oz. It's usually way more.

[@dzinypinydoroviny]

@@anond2015 Exactly. In Europe, the general assumption is that a cup/glass is about 250 ml, but very few types are that small.

[@IamJacksHeartCA]

Literally watching this video to fall asleep lol

[@MrONeal]

“You just have to shun the haters.”

[@jaakezzz_G]

I felt bad for opponent 1, it was an interesting game. Shoulda gave white the same amount of time back.

[@billsmith8397]

I agree, I wanted to see how it would end

[@kruksog]

One of those weird situations. I agree, but I've learned to not just "do the nice thing" because I want to be nice. I granted so many misclicks, leading to me losing, when none of my misclick requests are ever accepted. It's driven me to the point that I both grant and ask nothing. It's really a shame people suck so bad. I really did grant so many misclick requests and was granted none in return. I cant justify being kind and understanding if no one else will be. That just gives away rating. I can't afford to be kind if no one else is.

[@96merluzzo]

"i was also winning on time" cit.

[@danflem]

Dang I kidna wish you gave your first opponent more time, I wanted to see how that game would play out

[@Chikov2]

Yeah, kind of a cheap win.

[@kurosakiichigo7475]

​@@Chikov2how was it a cheap win, he didnt even use the time his opponent gave him. You cant just use all your time in rapid and expect more

[@Shalom589]

Congratulation!!!!! for the win!!!!!!!!! (19:52)

[@mckenziearchibald4510]

Yeah youd be a great audio book narrator ive fallen asleep to ur videos so many times cause ur so relaxinh

[@natem7440]

Consider the intention to educate; achieved! Relaxing content is side benefit

[@bladezplays612]

You read the comment about doing audio books because people like to fall asleep to your voice as I flipped over to go to sleep while watching this

[@billsmith8397]

I’m confused, why doesn’t Qa5 work in the first game? After Kd5, can’t you take the queen and then take the knight? Edit: never mind, it loses a pawn in the end lol

[@thetransferaccount4586]

repertoire is repeat indeed

[@SuperYoonHo]

way to goeric you rock!

[@StephenWhite55]

That second game clearly isn't a Scandinavian (you have to wonder, about some of these programmers 😑) - obviously, it's a Nimzovich Defense w/ colors reversed...

[@marcofrey2903]

Did Rosen have Be6 at some point during the opening of the first game?

[@caseyhurlburt3561]

I’m still so happy to have seen you beat levy so badly. I love watching you. And levy irritates me a bit although it still watch his content from time to time. Congrats on that match!

[@chiefyn1]

I find i play better after watcbing you.

[@gm_ahmed]

14:41 he said gif not jif 😯

[@NotQuiteFirst]

Everyone says gif, only hipsters say jif. I say chif

[@sashaboydcom]

@@NotQuiteFirst I say tif, but everyone thinks I'm referring to tiffs. It's a hard life. 😔

[@willdavid3501]

Creamy Jif

[@jordylont1879]

The releasing of these streams confuses me lol

[@keithrobben1183]

Simply stop being confused

[@PabloOzuna]

I wish I was like you….easily confused.

[@willdavid3501]

@@PabloOzuna do you confuse others?

[@sashaboydcom]

This is a confusing comment thread 😕

[@vamshisoleti924]

Bro do speed run.

[@jonathanlindsey463]

baffled why anyone would want to see u play a scandi..??? horrible opening haha

[@og.d6916]
