Beating People with Tricky Openings: Twitch Stream #1
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 вер 2024
- I played two classical games on lichess.org and live-streamed them Twitch.
Openings include:
Old Benoni Gambit (1. d4 c5 2.dxc5!?)
Scholar's Mate Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Qh5 Nf6!?)

When you said no one was watching I wanted to cry.
Don't cry 😢
Same, I subscribed and am hoping to watch some of his streams because of it!
I also feel bad for disliking his Saint Louis Chess Club video demanding justice for agadmator. This guy is a trooper! I had to go back and change it to a like.
his diary: Not everyone involved in/observing a situation understands it fully. In a situation like SLCC/agadmator, it gets very complicated legally, since it might not be clear which photographer took which picture, what permissions are involved, and which country's laws apply where. (It also gets complicated when a system like UA-cam employs, which is totally broken and unfairly favors the prosecution gets involved. Probably a discussion for another time and place.) When one party has a legal team with the philosophy/instructions of "protect as much as possible and the overreaches will correct themselves" (which is common in media industries, unfortunately) and the other comes from a part of the world where American copyright laws often are not respected it can be difficult to sort out facts from assumptions. I still haven't learned enough facts in this case to pick a side (and I'm not sure I care enough, given how crazy people have been being), so I'm trying to be as unbiased as I can by attempting to understand both sides' perspectives.
Eric seems like a really nice guy and a reasonably well-informed person. (He also works for SLCC, so he's going to be biased, but also potentially have inside information.) He's a nice, relaxing way to learn more about chess. That said, it's not required to like or dislike everything about a person uniformly. Like what you agree with/like and disagree with the other stuff. It doesn't mean that you have to ignore all the stuff you like about someone when they come down strongly on the other side of an issue you've decided on. People can't be experts at everything.
on youtube its more than a 100k ... i think Eric is all right by now ... :)
Same
You're one of the few chess streamers worth watching imo. So many just crush their opponents and the moves are way over my head. But you explain things very clearly and logically. You deserve a better following. Keep it up!
Well said. Agreed!
more importantly, to me at least, is you seem like a genuinely nice person.. in a world of huge chess dicks
It's Finegold for the entertainment, Rosen and Bartholomew for the learning.
Agreed
@@lukehawkins9443 and Nakamura for opinions on TSLA stock prices.
he broke my heart when he said there is one person watching and thats me lol^_^
psst, how about some steroids for your chess?
@Death Son how do you not know that he was watching some other stream and also maybe some people switched and maybe the only person watching was not the woman from russia dont hate just go with it so what if she is actually lying
Death Son how do you know your brother wasn’t lying huh?
@Alfredo Horinç Hanzïnger Zalchennstein-Zurich you are so dumb why cant your brother have gone offline or away for even a second and then she comes in the possibilities are many do no
Alfredo Horinç Hanzïnger Zalchennstein-Zurich you will fail at a court testimony lmfao
I legit felt bad when he said no one was watching, and I'm really glad he uploaded the live to UA-cam, now it got the amount of view it deserves
For reals! Also so many people that upload to UA-cam would’ve cut out that part, but I’m glad he left it in, especially seeing his success now, it shows his humble beginnings. I’ve watched his more recent video so it’s fun seeing this being the first video he ever uploaded to UA-cam
Imagine no one watching Eric Rosen streaming now.. my man's become successful
hell yeah i'm watching it later!!! 😎
Hell yeah!!
I am watching it even later! Your hard work is appreciated :D
im watching it even more later
Me even more
tbh i'm the laterest
Many of us don't get to be on time when you are streaming. Thank you for uploading it to youtube.
Well said
I would love to see him streaming.. Where does he streams from?
@@planb4910 twitch in the description
Honestly this is inspiring when you said “no one is watching?” And now look at how chess has become popular now and your growth has expanded. This is great
I have no idea why this was recommended to me but I thoroughly enjoyed it
Great to hear!
I’m 20, but got into chess a few weeks ago. I think I can say I’ve never had a more immersive game, and I’ve never had a regret until now. Very very enjoyable game! Eric has the best content out there when it comes to learning in my opinion. He’s very thorough in his explanations of what he does! He gives insight into the thought process it takes to play.
Oh my. It's weird to watch Eric from before he knew how to draw a thousand arrows for calculations.
23:30 I actually laughed outloud: 😂 "His king is on e3... ...The most active piece."
I'm watching two years later. keep up the good work!
I like your style of commenting and sort of just letting people know what you were thinking even if it doesn’t end up amounting to anything. You give us a glimpse of your thought processes and it’s informative. It’s cool you are not afraid to be wrong or admit any shortcomings. Keep up the good work brother.
This was one of the friendliest commentary in "thinking out loud" style by a strong player. Thanks a lot for this. :)
I don't know why, I just find the contrast between Eric's first stream and his most recent stream so wholesome, he seems like the same person which is awesome
who's here after Eric got his Silver play button.....??
Watching these videos where Eric talks about having 1 viewer and seeing how far he's come... So wholesome! It warms my heart!
I think that you and also chessnetwork are the best chess streamers on twitch so far. Great play and explanations. Keep up the good job.
Never give up, even when you had only one viewer, you just kept going and made it feel personal. Now you're one of the biggest chess streamers, well deserved. That's incredibly inspiring.
First saw your instructional videos from St. Louis, and really enjoy your down-to-earth style and explanations. Better than many GMs.
I'm so happy this was in my recommended video feed. Fantastic video. You earned yourself a new follower ;)
Glad you enjoyed it!!
im so glad eric now gets the attention he deserves
I felt bad when you said no ones watching but now i can see the result and efforts you put in to make such a great content and you are the best at explaining lines so clearly and my chess got improved a lot thank you so much eric lots of love
Eris is a good streamer and a very interesting player. It's always pleasant to watch his videos :-)
Eris?
It's Eric ;-;
Who came here from the Eric Rosen Clips channel?
Me
Me
"there's two people watching, one of them is me" - my life as a streamer
A banner comment .. "but his king is on e6... his most active piece". Haha! Most instructive streams and videos and a most likable guy. Keep it up, sir :)
So happy this crossed my feed! You seem like a nice person and a great player. You have just earned yourself a "subscriber"!
Benjamin Romm thanks! 🤩
It's nice to see Eric's humble beginnings. You definitely deserve the success you have now. Much love from your biggest fan!
I'm watching, and I love videos like this!
Please never stop!
He has come so far, i Watch him not only to learn, but also to sleep, his calm voice an explanation is so relaxing. I would ve loved to have you as a friend growing up. Everyone needs someone like you Eric
You didn't get disheartened or depressed after seeing only 1 people is watching, thats kinda life lesson to me❤️
Please keep doing videos just like this. Your commentary on your moves and your thought process is so helpful. You got a subscriber.
You and John Bartholomew are definitely the best chess instructors on UA-cam. Thank you for your thorough explanation of your moves and your thought process! I like it when you play amateurs because I really learn from the mistakes the opponents make and your explanation of their mistakes!
You can play and you are able to explain it in a plain and simple way. You are doubly gifted. Thanks.
Very natural presentation and stream of consciousness in your explanations of your thought process. Fantastic content, really surprised you have so few viewers.
Given that this was one of my first streams, I guess it was normal to have few viewers. It's nice to see the UA-cam audience appreciates it!
We all appreciate it Eric. Thank you so much. We are all learning a lot from you. Please never stop what you're doing. Subscribed!
Oh yeah nahui schach community
Awesome! Thanks for really explaining the extra pawn endgame, I find it really easy to accidentally draw or drop a pawn by overpushing trying to promote to eagerly
Watching over 2 years later, on Christmas Eve. Thank you for making content that my entire family can enjoy. Hope you have a great holiday.
I'm watching this in the far future and I've been watching your videos her for maybe two months. Quite some change in two and a half years. Thanks for all the free lessons.
27:05 agadmator would be proud
lol, 2 peops watching , 1 is me :D
Im joining in from now on!
Legend
Look how big he grown now
Learned a lot just by watching you comment a bit on your play. Thanks!
Legit felt bad when he said no one's watching. Welp atleast eric's gone big now. I love your contents!!
It’s so cool to look back and see how consistent Eric has been since the beginning. Thank you for being such an incredible streamer!
this is so wholesome to watch, you probably have the most instructive chess content for beginners on UA-cam. You deserve all the success and following. Way to go!!
Thank you Eric, although just 1 person was watching at that time, one year later more than 105 thousand people viewed this video. Thanks for not giving up streaming!!!
Hey man , this just popped out from my recommended and I just wanna say , Thank you. You explained everything clearly. Really helped a lot for beginners like me.
Your awesome man. I really appreciate your videos, I learn a ton from them! Just started playing and got super addicted. What a incredible game. Anyway your super good shit man. Keep posting vids 🤘🏼
You look so friendly :) !
Thanks... I do my best not to come across as unfriendly 😄
He is
1850 USCF here! My favorite will always be John Bartholomew, but after watching this video you’re easily my second favorite. Great easily followable analysis!
That's so flattering. John Bartholomew is also my favorite.
Channel and the stream have came a long way . Congratulations eric . U deserve a lot more . Keep it up!
When you said you were the only one watching it hit me pretty hard. Your commentary is genuine and intentional! Honestly, UA-cam may be be best for someone like you. I love watching videos like these in my dorm after classes, rather than having to catch it live whenever that may be. Great video my man
That was very instructive, thanks Eric. The first game in particular since (as white in bullet) I often face 1 ... c5 in response to 1. d4, and I normally mess it up. I've just subscribed to you.
I love you and your content. I'm glad you never gave up.
Good live analysis, talking us through your thought process. You may be my next favorite chess youtuber. Subscribed!
I felt bad watching seeing no one was watching with you ik this is a late comment but I enjoyed this video so thanks :D
Eric, this just popped into my recommendation.. And I'm so, so, so happy for you.. That you made it this far.. You will only grow man.. You are the best
It's really unfortunate to hear no one was watching your stream at the time, this is exceptional commentary for a chess channel showing a very clear thought process easy to follow even for lesser players. (only 1700 elo speaking).
I started to play chess more frequently and I love your chanel, very rational and logical way of explaning moves which helped me a lot. Thanks Eric
Put videos more often.....love ur way of teaching!
When you aked about at what level you should explain..
-This level that came to you naturally, as you were expalning what you are actually thinking is the best.
Keep explaning just the way you did in this video. :D
Very insightful.
Came from the podcast. Happy to see the growth.
Instructive.
I love watching your videos more than playing chess.
Thank you for employing some sound logic. I think I'll really be able to learn for these
Instructive k&p ending! Thanks for that! Also fun to watch. The second game had a really romantic era vibe to it. Great stuff, keep up the good work my man!
Good to see that people from the past had very good faith in Eric's streaming and they were so correct. He's one of the best streamers in 2021.
Mr Rosen - I love these youtube posts - please keep them up.
Well im watching all your videos now long long time than the uploaded date and i love each and everyone of them. Helping me learn alot so thankyou and please upload more.
Love your video's! I learned so much from you and the way you talk it's so calmly that I can meditate while doing analysis. As soon as I discovered you on you tube you got one instant follower! And I have never saw someone finding so simply and again so deadly solutions, while streaming. I must add on the end that you have one fan in Serbia! Cheers
thanks for uploading!
Thanks for commenting!
2 people was watching now 119k view's here 👍
I like to watch your videos, and strong players playing classical is generally the best!
This is the full version tutorial to the "Oh no my viewers" gambit
Wow Eric Rosen leaves the room! Mind-blowing move.
This just randomly started playing after another video. Now I'm watching the whole thing. Before Eric was a chess God. He was a chess prodigy.
In a chess lesson you taught me dxc5 against ... c5. I forgot how to follow-up so I'm glad you presented your ideas again. :) Henry
Eric leaving his chair to answer his grandma’s call is so wholesome.
I was so happy when you pushed with E3, lol. He was spoonfed a rook and ended up with a fork. 🤣
Under-promotes to show dominance 😂
Got to show those 1800 rapid players what's up. As an 1800 rapid player (currently 1879), it hurt to watch.
I just wanted to say that I enjoy what you have to say as a chess instructor but more importantly that you have a kind heart and I’ve grown to care for you from watching your wonderful videos
Thanks Eric, top notch
i've been watching your recent streams on youtube for a month or so then i came across this vid & wow, you seem so different, not that i know u but it's just that wow, also i just followed you on twitch, literally made a twitch account to do so & hoping to get to see you live soon & best of luck.
Calmest chess streamer with gudvibes.... Keep streaming.. within a year u will have million member subscribrs... Love frm india.. ☺
Nice games mate! Solid analysis, and some cool strategies utilized - says the chess enthusiast, score unknown.
Also, think I may be the latest braahh
26:19. grandma calls is code for taking a dump. I use that too.
You are just awesome sir.
I have learnt a lot from you.
Thank you!!❤
Thank you for such an awesome video. Keep up the great content sir
It was sad when you said no one was watching but don't worry. I enjoy your videos 😄

I’m glad that you decided to upload this to UA-cam. Great vid 👍
Thank you for these videos sir. I am learning and finally understanding what is hapening on the board. Even tho i am too old i still enjoy this alot.
You’re a great streamer! I’ve also seen you on St. Louis Chess Club lectures! :) I’m sure you’ll get a lot more followers like Jerry
Amazing. I'd totally watch a lot more of this
love your simple and straight content
Hi Eric - Just started watching your lectures and games - you have a very pleasant manner and I enjoy your contributions :-) Matthew
