This is why I always appreciate heart rate monitors when gaming, seeing his heartrate fly up when he comes up against Nakamura is a nice detail that we can sometimes overlook

[@c0mpleto]

9:30 "playing some guy" is wilddd 😭😭

[@doubleemmartin1]

The way I laughed out loud at that

[@tron103]

I was distracted when he said this and thought "wow what a strong player, who is.... oh. lmao"

[@mikebaker2436]

This is actually a running gag. 😅

[@69rahulraj]

and immediately his heart rate spiked from 75 to 100😂😂

[@lNTERESTlNG]

9:30 Look at Eric’s heart rate at this moment and then how much it increases as soon as the game starts. Must be very thrilling to play someone like Hikaru. I could feel your anxiety.

[@valleeinberger2993]

Playing some guy is wild 😂

[@user-xz1ld7wu3h]

58:10 you had a nice shot with Nxg4. Followed by Bxf5+ winning the rook and two pawns for your knight. Obviously, if the rook doesn't take you just win a pawn. Ggs Eric, I love your vids!

[@silvioparlanti]

I saw that, was a very nice move. Congrats

[@thetransferaccount4586]

very nice to watch tilted tuesdays

[@TV-fo5hr]

15:50 heartrate goes 166

[@marcovelo123]

1:19:35 "I'm playing for a win" then 🏳️ two moves later xD

[@MrSilkable]

😕

[@debrascott8775]

Even though I knew what happened, I was still saying, " Turn on zen mode, turn on zen mode!" 😅

[@pepperwestwood]

Yes to zen, yes to Alien Gambit 😎 👽

[@nathan2891]

Oh no, missed the rook fork at 14:10

[@christophejefferies522]

Nxg6? That just hangs a knight

[@user-em6td3xj1w]

Game 3, opponent hung a queen and Eric didn't take?

[@duncan7chrystal]

If you mean at 19:59 no, after Bxd4 white has Bxc7

[@courtneykachur9487]

My god man, make a move

[@MrSilkable]

😂

[@awekeningbro1207]

tbh I am glad he speaks his mind through, it really helps noobs like me understand

[@angosalvo5734]

Isn't kramnik banned?

[@mikebaker2436]

This was March 12th. The 3 month suspension was weeks after this Titled Tuesday.

[@angosalvo5734]

@@mikebaker2436 thanks for clarifying.

[@kshoggi]

Drawing arrows for calculations during live is kinda cheat no? All youtubers do it but you can't draw them on mobile.

[@snared_]

that last game.. disgusting.. and not in a good way.. just sad to see a 2500 give away a winning endgame with rook and many many passed pawns. Just revolting to see it happen, it's like watching.. Well you saw the same thing I did, you know what it's like to watch something like that.

[@bradleyjohnson8292]

U good bro?
