    The second game conversion from a positional advantage into a totally winning endgame is deeply impressive imo. Rosen's opponent didn't know what hit him until it was too late.

      @@rumaulia2709 White's Knight is out of the game, white's Bishop is bad. Rosen knew instinctively that the way to win was to push the Queenside pawns (once you've got one side of the board locked down attack the other side). Easy to say in theory, not so easy to execute in practice especially when you have less than three minutes on the board. I'm deeply impressed by it.

      People just wanna keep a buffer for king and pawns endgames. They often have the most subtle blunders, with the least amount of time to think them through
      Of course it's not worth it if you just blunder at the start of the mid game instead

    In game 1, move 9 (after Bxc6), I was thinking about Ne5. That would return the favor of splitting up the bishop pair. Instead, Eric went with 9.d3 Bd6 10.Ng5, which really surprised me. I don't think that makes sense. After 10... h6 11.Qh5 g6 12.Qh3 Qf6, and the position looks very good for black. Black played 10... Qc7 instead, which didn't do as much good for him/her. (Now I see that he got to that in the post-game review.)
    In game 3, instead of Nd5 (at just under 5:40 left on Eric's clock), I think Bd3 was the better move, and after Re8, play Qg3. 0-0-0 at the first opportunity, creating a discovered attack threat that black will have to deal with.
