How to Beat Amateurs at Chess

[@lukecurrie5958]

Love watching the rapid 10 minute games

[@ItsJustAnotherVideo]

My favorite speed for instructive chess

[@joeb4142]

👍🏻

[@Zvoosh25]

25:05 its funny that eric is so ingrained in chess that the letters g and m next to each other always registers to him as the acronym for grandmaster, instead of "g money jr."

[@MattePurple1]

Haha good catch. Just a note, an acronym is a pronounceable word like SCUBA or NASA. GM is an initialism, because you just say the letters (CIA, DMV, ATM).

[@BlazeSLK]

@@MattePurple1I love learning little bits like that

[@johnpc14]

"lets play some slow instructive chess to demonstrate how you can beat lower rated players" - Eric Rosen before playing players rated ~2200

[@shadowscp1391]

Dude I love these videos you post, I watch all of them 2 hour 3 hour 5 hour 12 hour, I'm actually waiting for your 12hr spring marathon!!! Keep It up Mr.Rosen

[@sebu1301]

6:05 maneuvers like this are the reason why Eric is an IM. Ideas like this wouldn't even come to mind for low rated players. Hey, let's just sac all the pieces including the queen because at the end we have a fork that gets the opponent's queen and after that we have more pawns in a pawn endgame. And he sees this in a matter of seconds. This is the kind of stuff low rated players like me need to see, to learn to think like good players

[@behavior2836]

Agreed! Look at games Magnus plays, he's master at the endgame and he never trades into a losing one, watch some streams of him playing and you'll see him do it all the time.

Shout out back from future!

[@lahelena6799]

I love the 10 minute games

[@carllinnaeus501]

Realy like watching vids against amateurs, it gives me understanding about my blunders when I playing chess

[@shadowscp1391]

Same!!

[@gunnaredlund9837]

Loved that Eric kept the Grab data analysis at the end for KZbin

[@solomonherskowitz]

Love the longer time frame

[@SevenTheJester]

He says "I'm not playing with my food," then less than ten minutes later, he intentionally hangs a rook to try to get connect 8 with his pawns 😂 I absolutely love it.

[@theWebViking]

Imagine starting with a London against Eric on your first game

[@TheFormerTeam]

4:15 I dont think anyone noticed the hanging bishop on b5 except renka (never mind 7:40)

[@colecarocat]

Can’t wait for the next marathon ❤

[@gregsera]

GM ONEY JR 😂😂😂😂

[@thetransferaccount4586]

grabbing the wins with grob

[@AlexCaisachana10]

This videos massages my brain

[@SnipeyGaming]

Wasnt that a free bishop at 4:20?

[@lucasmatsuoca]

4:18 free bishop? that would be eentire rook up *ok he mentioned later

[@pawngrabber9719]

For anyone wondering, yes, it was free bishop 7:33

[@matheuscouri2225]

Eric trying to be instructive Rosen

[@drumline17]

"How to beat amateurs" First game I skipped to: Eric plays the wayward queen Me: "just as I suspected"

[@deuceistheking]

Been trying to randomly get matched with Rosen on Lichess for 4 years, Renkas1983 gets matched on game 1 :(

[@jwr1970]

GM oney 😂

[@mathieupouillon5605]

Shout out to people watching this on Twitch in the past !

[@joeb4142]

😆

[@kaptniglo1165]

@12:58 I think Eric's Queen would have got trapped if he took the pawn after Ng4 Qxg7 Bf6

[@janopa9719]

There's a pawn on e5, you'd just take the bishop. If Qxf6 then you can trade queens at minimum and you're up a piece and a few pawns

[@Axel-iy4xs]

am i insane or is that not just a free bishop passed up at 4:20

[@planetina5616]

Oh dear that second player played like he's sleepwalking or smt

[@nomer440]

Kinda trippy I’m in the future in this video

[@Pianoguy-ce5qu]

Shoutout to theTwitch people of the past!

[@jwr1970]

There's a potentially funny line coming up 😭

[@katelynssugarpuddin1587]

Bullying amateurs, I'm here for it!

[@polonder]

Not a single London:(

[@classicalmusiclover4029]

Why didn’t he take the bishop? 4:19

[@josepherhardt164]

[@juneguts]

happy belated homestuck day

[@kaihaas4708]

Eric is such an arrogant guy..

[@chriszablocki2460]

Bxf7+. I lose to them on purpose a lot, though. Because they're better people than we are.
