Eric Rosen (well known streamer) is currently playing on Chess.com's twitch stream in a serious tournament - no dodgy gambits today..

I do like Eric Rosen - last video I watched with him was him checkmating an opponent with en passant as the last move.
Apparently that was a lifetime ambition, just 15 mins after a twitch chat user asked him if he’d ever done that.

Did anyone watch the fun events of the last round of the Super Grandmaster Wimj an Zee (so?) Dutch tournament yesterday?
It was super exciting & very controversial.

I guess that's the Tata Steel one, yes, very strange last day! The final armageddon game was amazing, I didn't have a clue what was going on!
Also saw that en passant checkmate video

I felt really sorry for Firoujza, battling for first place & being told by the arbiters to stop & move tables after 60 moves in the middle of a complex position.

Sorry Wingy - I thought that was you doing the big queenside attack against La Tour, but it was your Opp! Nice win in the other game though. Match score 1.5-5.5

Just lost (thankfully to a random) as a result of playing too many games at once

Anyone else in D6 want to start a game? My Fetch B match has finished so I have a bit of brain space available !

Yep, +1 for Firoujza. I was watching at the time and couldn't believe what was going on.
