GM Eric Hansen Bird Speedrun | 1000-1200

[@davidarthurcole]

There i was, enjoying my lunch that I had ordered, watching some chess content, when I felt someone standing behind me. It looked back, and it was Eric. He started to taunt me, flaunting his rating in the process, so I turned back around. He pulled me out of my chair by my collar, and dumped my lunch tray on me, before stating "This is definitely theory!!" and starting to laugh. Out of nowhere came Aman, who started to pour a bottle of water over me, fist pumping to some techno. Eric and Aman looked at each other, and in unison screamed "best speedrun ever," then left the store. Don't support these guys.

[@Chewman31]

I can imagine Aman just fist pumping to no music. Lol

[@abelrendon8956]

This is true, I was the lunch tray, saw everything.

[@michaelkrailo5725]

Maybe they are secretly filming all of this for some new K.O. footage. Sounds reasonable to me. You'll be a star.

[@landonschlangen]

David, did you write this with ChatGPT? don't lie

[@7ajad82]

Why there's always a don't support these guys comment I don't watch streams can anyone explain

[@DrStabkill]

Really appreciating these breakdowns. You’re talking to us like chess children and it’s very helpful to me

[@hclaut]

Rated 550, I watched the Bird Speedrun. Last game I played it said, “This is the Bird’s opening. You’ve played this opening 6 times with an 83% win rate.” Rating up to 610.😊

[@Truffle_Pup]

"that was a good Bird" - it's the small phrases that crack me up the most.

[@thabomokhaneli6992]

Eric I need to see Aman's insane dance moves in the background. Definitely will enhance our bird opening tactics😂😂😂😂😂

[@daniel-zl3me]

Don't underestimate the bird! Ca-caw!

[@tylerbrown9631]

I love how GM Yasser Seirawan is in their twitch chat backseating these GMs, just like how club level players will go into beginner streams and backseat those players.

[@random_eng]

keeping him honest lol.

[@Julesdafool]

I’m a 900 and tried this opening but nobody played any of those starting lines against me so I couldn’t prepare the line and got demolished like 5 games in a row 😢

[@apple9419]

Exactly why you should watch the whole speedrun, they will show all the lines

[@SkillerEPChess]

Fly like a bird, swim like an eagle

[@Denward00]

Hei last eipisode 25:00-26:30 song pls, this is driveing me crasy can’t find it.

[@simohayha6031]

Use Shazam on a range where Eric doesn't talk.

[@simohayha6031]

Used Shazam on the segment 25:02 till 25:6, was all that was needed. It's called Need You by Oliver Michael.

[@pakasokoste]

I love these videos!

[@serenemuzik]

2:17 cant black go NxG5 and then d4?

[@jonathanfrancis3937]

Keep it coming lads!!!

[@ItIsYouAreNotYour]

Why does it feel like every game Aman and Eric play against someone named Pooja?

[@shifty25_]

Song at 7:00??

[@seank5516]

At 32:20 isn’t his pawn hanging?

[@Luisinho.f]

Alrighty. Let's go, lads

[@abj136]

Once beat a Bird in 4 moves. From Countergambit Queen Sac: 1.f4 e5 2. fe5 Qh4+ 3. g3 Be7 4. gxh4??? Bxe4++

[@wout212]

So Chessbrah has an issue that the channel isn't recommended often to the wider public right? And on every video, the top comment is this story that says don't support these guys. However KZbin uses sentiment analysis to scan through the top comments LUL i don't think VADER(the sentiment analysis algorithm) is too good at reading sarcasm. That said, don't support these guys.

[@yodamaged2703]

😂

[@SapientAlt]

when do i fiancetto or not? is it when black doesnt push for centre control?

[@ltisenotem]

I want you to play like a... 4000

[@noobmaster006]

8:33 omg man i wanted to play that move too, maybe i am hidden GM too?! 😆😆

[@razorrook218]

Can someone name drop the first song playing

[@edcraddock9868]

Are you doing a caro speedrun along side this?😀

[@A51838]

43:50 literally the worst song i've ever heard in my life

[@gerontion1011]

whats wrong with it

[@JiveDadson]

That board is a big improvement on the one with brown dark squares. Much easier to see the black pieces. Please keep it for all the brah vids.

[@EssenceOfKapok]

People seeing their own rating in this video: I SWEAR I'M NOT THAT BAD!

[@peterthegreat6385]

No one can see that fianchetto dark square bishop lol
