Eric: "This is still secret Stanford gambit prep." After the most natural bishop capture: "I have never seen this before, oh God." 1:46

@@AUniqueHandleName444it's really not that obvious.. it's giving up defense of the key F3 square. There's a reason that Qxc4 is far, far more commonly played than Bxc4

Followed the game along with Stockfish and I'm super impressed by your opponent. Apart from 20.Bxf7 and 28.e5 (giving Black an option of a draw), they played almost the perfect engine moves until the endgame. Great work/prep for a 2150 rated player.

@officialEricBG 9 месяцев назад

Does Jonathan still edit your videos considering his announcement, Eric?

@asdfasdf-mn8iu 9 месяцев назад

At 3:00 : why does Bishop back to e2 not work? It defends the pawn, gets out of trouble and should the rook take, the king takes back and while the knight can fork the queen and the rook, the queen can just take the black queen. If Rd8 Qe3, if Nc4 Qf4. Am i missing something?

@spirit2264 8 месяцев назад

Yeah, after bishop back the rook will take with check , after the king takes the rook the queen will take the f3 pawn with check and after king back to e1 the horse is coming with check, only square of the king is d2 and then the rook on the 8th rank is coming to finish. Hope you understoond

Re: the in game Rosen trophy comment... I'd have thought it would cap at a binary-significant move number, something a power of 2 (2^8 = 256 moves being the most logical).

@victorfinberg8595 7 месяцев назад

7:30 sad to see white blunder here, after playing such a strong game. the move is Rd3, and the B escapes. (*) but the problem started earlier, with Rd7+ at 6:45, when white should have focused on getting the other rook out. BUT ... when playing minor pieces vs. Q, with king safety not good, you MUST set up a fortress, with all pieces near the king, and protecting everything, and the Q is helpless. then slowly advance. so, at 5:12, the proper move is Be2. (*) good to see that stockfish agrees with me.

This is bullshit. I tried it OTB twice and opponents not knowing it played top engine moves. Eric shows only games when opponents blunder or he flags them. In real life you end up with +5 for white.
