Instructive rapid is my favourite to watch

"it's probably fine" - Eric, castling into opponent's advanced queenside pawn storm

Good that Lichess noticed and banned those players. I don't agree with Kramniks recent endeavours but I do think cheating in online chess is an ongoing disease that is seriously threatening the existence of the whole format. Thankful for the moderators and others responsible for the major chess sites for their work on keeping the integrity of the game we all love intact ❤

@user-ik7jl7ft6y I'm glad they nabbed that bar steward. Online cheaters have become the bane of chess and the frequency with which it is happening is becoming depressing. Eric is such a nice guy, he never even hinted that the guy might have cheated though he must have known it with a high degree of certainty. I'm so happy that he got his points back. Eric, if you are reading this, well done! Instructive rapid is my favourite content of yours to watch by a large margin.

Eric: There’s a funny line = opponent’s about to get massacred Eric: I don’t know what to do = Oh well a loss is a learning experience

@spartanthe300ththermopylae4 6 ай бұрын

@joeb4142 learning from a loss to stockfish is not a bad way to learn.

So far..imo..your instructive theory/teaching has helped the most. Thx, Stafford Gambit! I have also learned cheaters cant play at a fast passed game as easily especially blitz. #COE

Eric never fails to make chess fun!

I think what you are playing Eric Rosen is the Paulsen variation. Taimanov does not have the pawn to a6, but rather queen to c7. I also prefer the Paulsen, or the Sicilian Kan.

So funny, the draw arrow incident. lol

@rmendeljacobs2832 6 ай бұрын

Lol i thought he was referring to the more common 'rice cooker gambit' (as seen on chess vibes channel)

Just a twitch question. When someone gifts 5 subs, does it basically mean they are donating $25? Since each sub is $5, if I'm not mistaken?

@LordTreyHowdy 6 ай бұрын

Sort of. Part of twitch subs go to twitch. A donation would all go to the streamer.

@rymlks 6 ай бұрын

They are literally buying 5 subscriptions, and 5 random active people in the chat receive those subscriptions to IMRosen's twitch channel. I haven't received one on twitch, but I did receive a few on youtube, and they seem to be usually for a month or so. Might be different time length on twitch

Big shout-out to okda45 for taking out an IM with an incredible knight sac! Edit: lol oops he cheated

@thetree1994 6 ай бұрын

Their account was closed for cheating.

@L1ttlepace 6 ай бұрын

Yeah I was ready to give him the benefit of the doubt for finding that sacrifice. In rapid wasn't that crazy a find if looking for a way to get the queen across. The more suspicious thing was the fact he seemingly had a better position against an IM for 20+ moves.

@spartanthe300ththermopylae4 6 ай бұрын

@L1ttlepace exactly my thoughts, I actually found the knjght sac. But those pawn pushes, without castling, and the way "he" (the stockfish) made them stick were insane. An untitled player simply does not play like that against an IM and crushes him.

@treylord2746 you wouldn't happen to be that bar steward's mate now, would you?

@spartanthe300ththermopylae4 6 ай бұрын

@treylord2746 on second thoughts... *YOU* wouldn't be okda45, would you?
