Thank you once again Eric for your instructional videos. Even in defeat with a mouse slip you are still humble, and you took it well. All the best and please keep smashing out these videos. They are fantastic and have helped me a lot.👍
I've had more mouse slips than I am comfortable admitting. They never leave you with a super wholesome feeling. Love this series... thanks for the content!
For me the most interesting part was actually missing that mate in 2, which is something Eric probably never misses. This happens to me too - losing just leads to further mistakes and ruins the usual calm thinking process with blunder checks.
After two gifts a mouseslip... life always balances😅... but that doesn't delete your competence professionality and humility. Thanks for this very instructive serie!
That really stinks for the first loss to come as a result of a mouse slip. If it's any consolation it looked like you were going to win. And I really like your use of arrows during the game. It's so helpful. So despite the mouse slip I still learned as much as always and still LOVE THE SPEEDRUN!
On rare occasions, mouse slips are a good thing. My cat stepped on my mouse blundering my queen, but it set up a mating net that I never would have seen otherwise. Definitely not a good strategy though LOL
My cat also helped winning a game by walking over the mouse which moved my queen. II didn´t think this move was that good, but finally we could win it together, GM Lilly and I xD
"As long as I don't get mated in some freak accident ...." First time I have ever heard "freak accident" in connection with a chess game. Late in game 2, black played Nd2, and Eric quickly said, "It's a free knight" and took it. Looking at the engine, I noticed that it preferred for white to play the intermediate move hxg6, and it looks very good. If black plays fxg6, white captures the knight on the next move, having in the meantime weakened the protection for the black king. Black has no better play, though. If he tries to save the knight with Nxe4, then Qh7+, Kf8 (forced), Qh8+, skewering the rook. The engine rates the position after hxg6 a full point better than the immediate capture of the knight. It was definitely sad to see his streak of no losses end on a mouse slip, but he also blundered the mate, which does give the loss a bit more legitimacy.
Very instructive to hear the thought processes and choices but also to realize how important it is to try and consider what your opponent might move (threats are).
If I was White I think I would recognize that I was playing you from your ohnomyrosen player name, which would make me nervous to take your mouse slip Bishop since I would be thinking it was a "Oh no my Bishop" trap.
These things happen, don't take it too bad.. :) After the mouse slip, you were kind of deconcentrated, or you'd never allow a backrank check mate. You are still a great chess player. The first loss after 10 months of speedrun means something.. :)
Does a player lose more points when a game is abandoned vs fighting on and eventually losing? I recognize that this speed run the opponent will not lose any points, but it is my understanding they do not know it is a speed run until after the game, correct? Thanks for sharing.
Your clock is all yours and you can use it however you please. -Nona Fries, probably. Jokes aside, I got caught in a mating net today (forced mate in 3), and all I could do was stare at the board for 2 mins trying to find a solution when there wasn't one. Ended up resigning with seconds left, but I had to look and use my clock to find anything as best I could. Maybe Nona Fries was right.
Happens so often at my level that I never play rapid anymore So many times it's forced mate in 1 and opponent just lets the clock run to zero, form 7, 8, even 10 minutes left.
This mistake in the last game is very annoying, but it wont rune the hole lovely siries, its not really a lost, its a mouse lost hahaha. Keep rolling, we are with you dear arikkkkkk

194 games without a mouse slip is impressive on its own, honestly
i was hoping that the mouse slip was just going to be a happy little accident, but alas...
it's also possible this is just the first mouse slip that has led to a loss 🙃
you're still undefeated in our hearts

1 rating refund, and new category: 1 mouse slip loss. :)
I don’t think he can even claim it was the mouse slip when he blundered a backrank mate…
@@moocowpong1His position went from promising to hopeless after the mouse slip. He was already completely lost before the mate.
If we do this, add a category for "X mouse slip wins".
@@moocowpong1 That's not where he claimed he mouse-slipped.
Still a loss though
So kind of you to give us insight into your internal monologue while you play... immensely instructive. Thanks Eric!
+1 !
title is misleading. it was oh d'oh d'oh d'oh d'oh 40:41
edit: to be clear, just some fun. It's a great series. Very interesting and entertaining.

Happy little pawns
@@JiveDadson Happy little sacrifice
so that's the first bob ross loss
Happy little blunder 😮😅

“It feels like just a couple minutes ago, I was down on time”. By two minutes.

The Eric Rosen gambit. Oh no, my Bishop!
That's a great lesson about not letting yourself being overwhelmed by emotions when you do a mistake, so to avoid a worse one.
Loving the series so far, it keeps getting better!
Great lessons as always and sorry about your oh no my mouse slip
It's ok Eric, even after the mouse slip, you played with so much calm❤ love your attitude and gameplay ❤
haven't watched you in a while Eric I got into chess a few years ago and watching your videos really helped I'm 1900 now

Oh yes!
Thank you Mr. Rosen for all the amazing content

you took it like a man, unfortunate but it prooves that you can be humble wether you win or losse... thanx!
Oh no your mouse slip! Chin up, we all learned something even from that. Looking forward to more great content.
Draw arrows afterwards?
I laughed at the last move 😂. I love your videos. Mouse slips suck. They are so instructive.
Thanks!
Thank you!!❤

You were playing a different kind of cat and mouse game than Eric was in this video lol

Eric I admire how you never resigned and you always take the mate like a man. Kudos to you sir.
It has only happened once :D
Very instructive to hear the thought processes and choices but also to realize how important it is to try and consider what your opponent might move (threats are).

I like 0:00 until 24:59:59

I enjoy these games and hearing your thinking for play.
I shall be using the phrase "Oh no my mouse slip" with my numerous 900 ELO blunders.
Mouse Slips happens to me on a regular basis ;) I really enjoy these series.
Don't feel bad, Eric: Today is Taco Tuesday, if you make it so. And tomorrow is Taco Wednesday!
(see how everything is going to be alright)

Sad to see a great win streak ends by a misclick. Never mind, keep up the good & instructive streams 👍
Very informative series Eric! Keep it up!
Finally caught up on the speed run. Man, 2 years without a speed run video and 17 videos back to back, took me a while to catch up. :)
wow! first loss! by a damn mouse slip! This is hands-down the best chess speedrun (followed by Danya one and couple from chessbrah!)
Was just wondering when the next speedrun episode was going to be - thank you Eric!
Love your channel Eric. Keep going.
Winning by abandonment, losing by mouse slip, I feel a bit less instructed, but still entertained.
Love this series!
You are awesoum man. Your explanations era great and you are very humble. ❤
Uploaded just when I needed something to watch, LFG!!!
Amazing video as always Eric thankkkk youuu!
These are so fun to watch, thank you!
These things happen, don't take it too bad.. :) After the mouse slip, you were kind of deconcentrated, or you'd never allow a backrank check mate. You are still a great chess player. The first loss after 10 months of speedrun means something.. :)
Do you recommend playing the grand prix or alapin? for like a 1600 level
we've all done it LMAO eric still enjoying the content and instructive chess
That was a clear mouse slip, you were talking about the next moves. I would not add this as a loss. Mouse Slip category should be added.
Loving these videos
I love Speedrun Episodes!
Lmao, out of all the ways to get your first loss 🤣🤣 great games this episode Eric!
You're a really good player. That guy was lucky!
how many puzzles do you do on a weekly or monthly basis? Could you show your Puzzle Dashboard in Lichess?
Love this series
I wish we could get one of these every day
As a 1200-ish player it is reassuring to see back rank mate at the 2100 level, ha!
Mouse slip loses are part of every speedrun. Happens to Hikaru as well.
Lol knew it was gonna happen at some point, I'll still be back to watch tomorrow
episode title got me nervous
Best speed run of all time
How did the slip happen? To me the cursor looks to be on c4 which wouldn’t be a legal move
Does a player lose more points when a game is abandoned vs fighting on and eventually losing? I recognize that this speed run the opponent will not lose any points, but it is my understanding they do not know it is a speed run until after the game, correct? Thanks for sharing.
At 2nd game as soon as Eric said 'opponent didn't crack, and handle the situation well' he did lose his pawn and knight in 5 moves :D
Dont mess with the Hess 💪
Thanks Eric! Tough, these things happen

Oh no my mouse slip! Sad way to get your first loss but your reaction _was_ pretty funny, not gonna lie 😂
Such a sad way to break the streak. I almost shed a tear.
Given the other games, it would have been hilarious if Eric abandoned the last one. 😂😂😂
Can someone please tell me what app this is
You started by saying you hoped to “break 2100”.
You ended broken on 2100.
Mission accomplished?
Just finished watching episode 64 and the new one releases❤
I like white's snake-like pawn chain in the first game.
Clock runners should have account deleted automatically.
They heard "never resign" and took it to heart.
@@crazyexbfits just annoying not really anything bad yk just like a waste of time
Your clock is all yours and you can use it however you please.

Vote for Eric to grow a full beard
I see why Ra5 is good, but isn't Ra6 better? Fork plus gains tempo on other rook?
Eric doesn’t deserve this loss 😢
1 web engine features not disabled, one ban of opponent. How many games would you play until your opponent would totally outplay you?
This is why lichess is elite for it’s takebacks
In Gm 3 perhaps ... Bc5 was an error?

There seems to be more tilted players at these higher ratings than lower lol.

Nice of Eric to play with a piece down.
Eric, whens the next episode dropping?
Oh no, my Bishop!
Move the king 👑 !!!
More speedruns please
This is devastating!
You’re a good sport Eric you lose with grace which is not something all GM’s/ IM’s do. Seems like a lot of gms immediately accuse the opponent of cheating - I won’t name names
The only thing that prevents mouse slips is a beard.
Does anyone legitimately use the 2-click move? I feel like that feature exists explicitly to cause mouse slips
Gm 2 = crazy pawn sacrifice
