If I was that person, I'd be going to bed with a smile for at least a week. Congrats on the win too!

[@Exayevie]

Seriously, what a GOAT

[@MajorAddiction]

Clutch god

[@ramachandra776]

First Fabiano in St.Louis . Next Magnus in New York . Best of luck Eric .

Next Trump in Washington.

[@ilya_burov]

@@PatronCervezasPossibly, still pls watch out for a stalemate!

[@hotpil7020]

Eric having "clean up time" against Fabiano is the most badass thing

[@SharpTern]

7:00 He's nervous...but on the surface...he looks calm and ready...to drop bombs...

[@brownie8090]

He’s spaghetti but on the spaghetti he looks clam and spaghetti to drop spaghetti there’s vomit on his spaghetti already

[@business_time2610]

Very clever :)

[@benjaminkolbeck]

To drop pawns**

[@Svuem]

Magnus, Hikaru, Fabiano. Eric has beaten every player in the top 3 now. Amazing stuff

[@hermanblinkhoven1856]

Kramnik soon to follow, if he dares of course

[@dannyclub09]

When did he beat Hikaru and Magnus?

[@Sammy-qt9it]

@@dannyclub09He beat Magnus in online bullet and Hikaru in another online game

[@dannyclub09]

@@Sammy-qt9it Oh, awesome! I doubt many IMs can boast that.

Damn this did not age well

[@HoloDaWisewolf]

Oh God this is awesome, congrats Eric. I love how you don't automatically aim for a draw against GMs and super GMs. Amazing mentality, and amazing play. GG.

[@rodriguezro9999]

I'm so proud of you Eric! Fabi is an outstanding player and so are you. Thanks for bringing us on your Chess journey.

[@eatsleepjazz]

1:13 one of the most dedicated jobava players alex banzea almost always allows knight takes bishop and it proved to result in a very playable position despite double pawns which I believe he called the boa snake setup.

[@MajorAddiction]

Man of culture

[@JacobVanlunen]

He allows the knight takes bishop without going to g3 when black has already played e6, it makes playing e5 really hard for them and gives them a shitty lightsquare bishop. Not trying to be a know it all, just explaining when it’s right to do that.

[@ThatLucasGuy93]

The masterstroke was dxe5 - he was expecting the Queen and him missing how bad things would be with the d1 rook and his own bishop gone is what what began to tilt it.

[@JohnDoe-ti2np]

Yes, and also (a couple of moves earlier) accurately foreseeing the consequences of Bxc4. I would probably have played g4, which is not as good.

[@MrOpen2012]

I despise ignorant people like you.

[@getrightw1tcha]

pretty sure he didnt expect queen takes but okay :D

[@noone-ld7pt]

Holy crap, this is HUGE! Congrats!! Must be a massive confidence boost before the world rapid and blitz!

[@manojlds]

And great news for Arjun fans 😂

[@isaac7272]

You think fabi will play like this in important game?. He say himself when playing against lower rated opponent, he always play ambigious line, try to experiment and sometime got punish back.

[@isaac7272]

@@manojlds there is zero chance, even if fabi didnt get top 3, arjun never gonna win clear first in rapid, magnus is lurking there.

[@KathaEveryu]

Awesome work Eric! My own heart was beating fast watching the game play out on the screen and I knew who won already, I can't imagine being in your position. Love the games and can't wait to see more!

[@sreerudhrhp7194]

[@anorangewithacapybaraunder2370]

HUGE WIN! What percentage of the world can say that they beat the world #2 in a chess match?! Bragging rights well deserved 👍

Wow, congrats. I’m not very surprised to be honest. This is just a question of time before you start. Taking even more control of the chest world. Keep it up and well done. Super solidly played!!!!

[@mathedguy]

Outstanding Eric ! I’ll never try g6 as black against the London. Your development was so far ahead in the opening ! I also noticed in the Blitz championship, that in two crucial games, Magnus went to the London ! I hope you are very proud of your accomplishments !

[@chessman483]

Congrats, I’ve been following you for a couple of years. My own game has improved no end. So glad to c I’m following the best 😂

Given the scale of this, I don’t think it would’ve been inappropriate to jump on the table, kick the chess pieces all over and scream like a Banshee. It’s what I would’ve done. You’re a class act, Eric.
