Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox chess player Eric Rosen (born September 3, 1993[1]) is an American chess player. He was awarded the FIDE Master title in 2011 and the International Master title in 2015.[2] Rosen began playing chess as a child with his father and brother and became the United States Chess Federation (USCF) K12 national champion in 2011.[3][4] While attending the University of Illinois, Rosen was on the chess team that secured a spot at the President's Cup in 2013 and 2014.[5][6]

Rosen produces educational content on the online platforms Twitch and YouTube.[7] While primarily known for his chess content, Rosen has also produced Scrabble livestreams and videos for his audience.[8]

Early life

Rosen was born on September 3, 1993, and grew up in Skokie, Illinois.[9] He is Jewish.[10] At the age of 7, he learned the rules of chess while on holiday in the Bahamas.[11] Rosen's first major success came at age 9, when he won the Illinois 3rd Grade State Championship.[12]

Attending Niles North High School, Rosen led the school's chess team to two state championships, and third place in nationals.[13] In his junior year, Rosen won the 2011 U.S. K-12 Championship with a perfect 7-0 score, beating then-IM Marc Arnold in the final round.[14] US Chess called his clean sweep "one of the outstanding individual achievements in this tournament's history",[14] and the Skokie Village Board named May 16, 2011, Eric Rosen Day.[11]

In 2011, Rosen achieved the title of FIDE Master by surpassing an Elo rating of 2300.[15]

Chess career

College

Rosen attended the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign for two years from 2012 to 2014, studying mathematics and computer science.[9][16] He had been offered a full ride chess scholarship by the University of Texas at Dallas, but Rosen turned it down as it would have seen him playing for the B-Team.[17] Instead, Michael Auger, the Illini Chess Club President and Rosen's future roommate, convinced him to study at Illinois.[17]

In his freshman year, the team competed in the Pan-American Championships for the first time since the 1970s, and tied for first with four wins and two draws, after being seeded 14th.[17] This took the team to the President's Cup, the Final Four of collegiate chess, for the first time since 1991.[16] Rosen's team was the only college in the Final Four which did not offer chess scholarships, and the only team without a coach or Grandmaster.[18] In a "fairy tale story", the team made it to the President's Cup again in 2014, after placing 3rd at the Pan-American Championships.[16][6]

In 2015, Rosen transferred to Webster University on a chess scholarship,[8] who had won the President's Cup in both of Rosen's previous appearances.[9][19] Playing for Webster University SPICE (Susan Polgar Institute for Chess Excellence), he was trained by Susan Polgar, the former Women's World Champion. In 2017, Rosen graduated from Webster University with a B.A. in Interactive Digital Media.[9]

Individual

Rosen placed 9th in the 2011 World U-18 Championship in Caldas Novas, Brazil, with 6 out of 9 points, in doing so earning his first International Master norm.[20]

From 2012 to early 2015, Rosen's FIDE rating stagnated at around 2300, dipping to 2259 in 2013.[21][15] However, in June 2013, Rosen achieved his second IM norm, with a tied first place finish at the 29th North American Masters in his hometown of Skokie, Illinois.[22][23]

At the 9th Philadelphia Open in May 2015, Rosen gained 50 rating points and his third International Master norm after tying for first in the U2400 division.[24][22] A month later, Rosen gained 51.4 rating points and a fourth IM norm after a 2nd place finish at the 24th Chicago Open, with 6.5 out of 9 points.[25] These two tournament performances took him to his peak FIDE rating of 2423.[15] With his final IM norm won, and a rating over 2400, Rosen was awarded the title of International Master in September 2015 at the 86th FIDE Conference in Abu Dhabi, UAE.[15][22]

In 2018 he unwittingly defeated reigning world champion Magnus Carlsen in a bullet game.[26] In 2022 he won chess.com's online "IM not a GM speed chess championship" whose 16 entrants were prominent chess players who did not have the grandmaster title.[27]
