In this video, I play my first ever Jalalabad Opening (inspired by Gotham Chess). While the opening is quite dubious, it led to a memorable story to share with my future grand children.

London Opening 8-hour video course:
Sacrificing a pawn, but then I become a butterfly.. simply beautiful!
This man's love for Pawn cubes is the best thing about the world right now
14:18 wait, was I winning? 🔫 You always has been!
When i first started playing chess, the person who taught me stressed the importance of controlling the center of the board. I think i now understand what he meant.
no offense, but sometimes im amazed that he's a titled player
How about a Kandahar ?
Why didn’t you include the banana part?
This was more entertaining than all of GOT
Hi to twitch chat
chrysalis cube
Eric, how many center pawns is it possible to acquire during a game?
Hi Twitch chat 🙂
central pawn cube… the prophecy is true
I’ve been watching for only a little while but now I’m starting to get interested in chess
I know I'm spoiling the fun but it's not pronounced as Jalala"bad". It's actually pronounced as Jalalabaad.
“and then eventually you turn into a butterfly” i love this man
I don't follow the knight punish. Wouldn't the king just take the knight when it took the pawn?
I hardly even play chess and I watch your videos like every single day dude 😂 you’re so fun to watch!!
Jalalagood wins
It's kind of tragic that bongoboyy was not playing badly but then lost the endgame terribly.
I bet this guy named Eric Rosen voted for Trump, considering he almost all the time plays dubious gambits! Does he want to be a teacher or does he want to be funny or what does he want? At least you cannot take him serious just like Trump..
Pawn Cube variation. All part of standard theory
Jalalagood
"I should play the Jalalabad more often; especially if it leads to positions like this. I think it's winning."

Hi Twitch
Caterpillars Undulate.
nice jalalapog
Yes.
Hi Twitch
세상에나 ㅋㅋㅋ
hi twitch chat
This was indeed Jalalagood. Looking forward to some other jalalagreat variations!
Hi, any one know what is the extension he using for this voiceover 1:26?
Why is my name in the title?
What's next, pawn hypercubes? 🙂
Awesome pawn structure!
Chess is a 2D game dude. That is a pawn SQUARE.
Thank you very much for choosing bongoboyy for playing jalalabad opening. You are my online YouTube coach. I learn many things from you. But in real life playing a game with you is "something special" that I can not explain in words. Chess is my only ❤ love. IM Eric rosen is the 🤴 prince of chess. I love you sir
I like watching your videos before bed very calming I could see just using the audio for that purpose
Already subbed. Here’s my comment. Love your chess and narrative.
Add the central pawn cube to your new book, "100 end games that you must not know". Just toss me a few bucks when it hits the New York times best sellers list.
The proper word for a caterpillars movement is Slink. Eg slinky @Eric Rosen
So beautiful, so square…
hi twitch chat
You remind me of blues clues
"It's not crawl. What do caterpillars do?" They….. They crawl… 😂😂 lol maybe 'inch' would be a better verb, but he says compress and decompress 😂💀💀
Broke: Studying theory
Woke: Make funny shapes
Please bring out an audiobook Eric !! You only need a couple of pages and we’ll be out cold.
Christmas number 1 for sure
