Bravo très bien joué
Can you do a video for black after e4 e5 d4. I keep getting this played against me I play exd 3. Qxd4 Nc3. But then the queen just runs ramshod over the board. PLEASE HELP
CoHi poph
In the position White plays 1.Rf8+ Rxf8 2.Nxc7#
correct
I was looking at Nxc7+ as the first move, works too but this is much more savage.
Bravo très bien joué
simply KxC7 !! its not a best move .
best move is Qh5+ . black is absolute losing . not Nxc7 .
@@sirarvsvaldez307 the king cant get to d8 in order to take the knight because once the first rook is sacrifices the queen covers that diagnol from being moved to, its a forced line
Solution for ending postion:rook e6 check if black captures it with pawn or with knight there will be queen e7 checkmate but if he captures it with queen then knight:c7 checkmate
Well done!
Thanks
Rook e8, check.....the only defense is rook takes e8, and then knight c7 checkmate.....
Thank you.
@@KSSaint this works too, thank you.
I love how you make every opening seem *brilliant* & how hyped they get me lol. I'm going to play King's Gambit all day tomorrow & try these traps 🙂
how did it go?
lol it will never work hhhhhh because none ever protect the bon with g5 bruh..
@@mamdouhalach3003 thats not true, i played this on 1300 elo and some guys played g5. In fact you can check this on lichess how often do players play g5 in this position.
@@benjkobenjki2085 I tried it and no one ever makes the same moves I need to get the traps to work. Im 600 rating & I've never pulled a trap off in 250 games
I dont go in with a plan. I plan and constantly adjust the plan as the board evolves. "Be formless, shapeless, like water..."

That's deep.

@@haroldlegaspi1907 as a chess player I don't have a plan, if I don't have a plan then my opponents don't know what the hell I'm thinking, and that is the best way to play chess
There are about a dozen ways to checkmate in this position but the quickest (M2) is rf8, rxf8, nxc7#. You remove the rook from the queen's line of sight on the d8 square by moving the rook in for a check, then ending the game with the knight.
Re6+ is very nice, too. If knight takes, there is Qe7#, else is Nc7#
@@carolusmagnus57 you mean if pawn takes right? Pawn takes Rook on e6 and than Qe7#
@@m.kaschi2741 Right. You can either take with knight or pawn and then it is checkmate on e7. If queen takes, it is Nc7#.
👍
You guys attack like Morozevich.

I swear these are the most informative chess videos out there
Thank you!
Thanks, I'm definitely using these!
Dude, I haven't played chess in at least 3 decades. I am a 70 year old retired engineer who stubled by chance on one of your videos and watched it. I have been watching them regularly now and I love them This puzzle is terribly obvious. Of course move the white rock next to the king, then take the pawn with the knight mates in 2.
wouldnt the king just take the rook tho?]
@@fatenamaste that’s defended with the rook on f1
Hi, I was hoping to find someone who would show multiple scenarios of the gambits rather than just one. You are perfect. Thank you very much for it!
Puzzle: D5 Knight to C7 (check), king moves to D8 (only move), knight takes rook A8, black queen checks C3, white queen takes C3, knight E6, Queen to A3, the rook defends king on E8, after sacrificing pieces, queen checkmates. (I’m sure there is a faster way but that’s what I instantly grabbed towards. Solved in about 20 seconds.
Not sure why, but there’s something about the kings gambit that I just love. It’s very unorthodox end, you can always tell if a middle game or end game started with this opening.
For some reason when I play kings gambit I always completely control the board even against strong opponents. It’s very easy moves to understand, gets strait to the point and is definitely an opening for intuition based players due to the fast aggression. My best games where I completely dominate were from the kings gambit. Idk it’s like when I play this opening I feel right at home, this is the ancient way of chess after all.
My strongest opponent that I absolutely crushed with this opening was from a very rare line in the kings gambit where I allow my knight to be captured by the pawn in the beginning, I castle, get checked and then have a massive attack when I move my king to H1. This opening uses blacks pawn as protection for my king. Found this opening from intuition and turned out to be a real Murphy game. My opponent was rated 2100 IM, beat him in 16 moves.
Thanks for the video and demo
Rf8 Rxf8 Nc7#
but even more brutal is Re6+! 3 ways to capture - all mate next move
awesome advanced analysis dude
what is your online chess rating
I love this opening! Morphy is my all time favorite player of chess. You studied morphy pretty well.
the move order for the last position is: 1. Rf8 + Rxf8 (forced); Nc7#
is knight c7 king d8 followed by rook c6 a checkmate or black could get out?
14:35 got it Sir Rf8+ Rxf8, Nxc7#
white Knight, Queen, and Rook
was helped by black's d7 pawn
and delivered a stunning mate
What if Kxf8
white Rook at f1 :)
Re6+! is also mate in 2
well done!
Awesome video! Thanks!! My guess for the answer: Nxc7+ Black King would be forced into the d8 e7 diagonal which would lead to a discover check and loss of the black Q with Rf6f4+ ! Wait - not the best discover check. Here is the best: the discover check queen attack combo can also be achieved with Re6+ which I think is actually better since the check cannot be blocked by Black's Queen - whereas with Rf6f4+ the Black Q can block after Kd8 escape!.
I’ve been playing the king’s gambit a lot these days and I’ve got a win rate of about 90% with it! Great tips, thanks!
Kings gambit it all good & all but setting a trap is one thing you still need your opponent to fall for it & in my experience they don't always do also I rarely use kings gambit when I'm playing black as your behind a move a the start & just to risky
I can't stop watching this guy's videos. He's helped renew my interest in one of the first board games I ever played.
I'm so happy to hear it!
This isnt the fastest but Qh5+ Kd8. Rf8+ Rxf8. Rf8+ Qe8. Then either Rxe8 or Qxe8#. I later saw the M2 with Rxf8+ Rxf8. Nxc7# thanks to the queens line of sight being cleared of the rook covering the runaway squares
This is the best opening have ever played. None of my opponents has played this pawn stuff, but i can Control the Center and have tons of move options. Great stuff 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you sir.
Hi Igor, what is the follow-up with trap 5 if Black King doesnt take the bishop but moves to f8. Black is already a knight more so what will play White than?
Thanks for the video
Great! Very instructive, thanks for the work!
Glad you enjoyed it!
1.Re6+ (Qxe6 2.Nxc7#[With royal fork btw]) (Nxe6 2.Qe7#) (dxe6 2.Qe7#)
Exactly, what I need. Thanks a lot for this good video again! 👍
Nice I always use this trick. It is a good trick
Thank you
Another great video! Can you please make a traps & tactics in Catalan Opening. 🙏🏼😊
Thanks for the suggestions. We will make make note of it.
I wait for your videos! So entertaining & instructive! Thanks from Dubai!
Glad you like them!
I saw the following 2 lines,
1st: 1. Qe5+, Kd8 2. Rf8+, Rxf8 3. Rxf8+, Qe8 4. Qg5# … this line could also go like 2. Rf8+, Qe8 3. Qg5# and there are a few more variations of this… the next line I found is:
1. Qh5+, Qg6 2. Rxg6… quite obvious but let’s say they don’t take and they make any other move except d6, then Rg8# (2x Check). If it goes 2. Rxg6, d6 3. Rg7+, Kd8 4. Qg5+, Ke8 5. Qe7#…
I really like the Rg8# though, if the right moves by black allowed it to happen
Hi Igor, most interesting video. allthough in the end of the fifth trap you demonstrate, you move black queen to e7, but what if black move the roock to g8 instead attacking white queen. no easy checkmate. Thanks for your teaching and comment. Best. Chris
Final position knight c7 if king moves to d8 rook to c6 checkmate. If king moves to e7 after Knight moves c7 rook moves h6 checkmate
For the 14:35, as white I would play Nc7 check.
If Black King goes to d8, then Rc6 to defend the Knight and a discovered checkmate.
If Black King goes to e7, then Re6 as a checkmate as well.
Rf8 is the right move sac the rook to open the diagonal for queen and you take c7
Solution on the 5th example:
Scenario 1: Nxc7 Kd8 Rc6#
Scenario 2: Nxc7 Ke7 Re6#
The declined trap is quite useful as that situation is very common in many kg lines . I very rarely get people playing into the McDonnell gambit or muzio sadly. It's hard to lose in blitz if you get that position for white. But what does happen a lot at lower levels is that black plays f6 defending g5. You have to be careful as tempo matters here, but in many lines Nxg5 leads to either forced checkmate or a big material advantages
Great stuff as always GM Smirnov!
Glad you enjoy it!
Make all variations of king's gambit checkmate video
Nice video chess Kings Gambit.
@14:36 i could play
Nxc7+ . Kd8
Rf7(discovered check from Qg5) . Kxc7
Qc5+ . Kd8
Rf8+ . Rxf8
Rxf8#
After Nxc7
If Ke7 . Rf7+
Ke6 . Qf6#
Mate in 2 is forced: 1. Rf8+ Rxf8 2. Nxc7#
1: e4 e5 2:Nf3 Bb4 3: nxe5+ Kf8 4: Qh5 Nf6 5: Qxf#
Best Solution i see is Rf7... you release check but its mate in 1:
~ Black Queen takes Knight: Qe7 mate.
~ If black makes literally any other move not taking Knight, Nxc7 mate.
14:41
Trap-2: If black had played d5 on move 6, the position would have had a value of -2.37 (depth: 27)
Can you help with this weakness in my game? In casual games, when I xastle queenside as whitevI very often create a massive weakness of my A pawn. I've been tying up a knight on c3, sometimes this gets pinned, but how do I avoid making this pawn a target. Moving it to A3 seems to create other problems- do I slide my king over, what other solutions are there? Thanks.
good video, thx! :)
1. Qh5+ , Kd8 ..2. Rf8+ , Rh8 x Rf8..3. Rf1 x Rf8+ , Qe8..4. Qh5 x Qe8 # checkmate...is it right? thanks for video on traps GM Igor! More power and more winning!
Blown my mind!
The best way to get a checkmate for the last one is Qh5, if black decides to move his king to d8 then you can move the rook to f8 and he is forced to trade rooks and then he has no choice but to block the rook with thier queen and you can take the queen with your queen and that is checkmate. If black decides to block the queen's check by moving the queen to g6 then you can take with your rook and if he takes your rook then you can take his h8 rook and that is checkmate. If he tries to do any other moves i have found checkmates for those too, but there is too much possible moves for me to disclose in on comment
Qh5. Thank you for the video. Take care.
Thank you very nice move
Qh5 (His king is forced to d8) Rf8 (his rook is forced to f8) Rf8 and now it’s checkmate.
If he moves Qe8 to block Rf8, Qe8 and now it’s checkmate.
I love this video. Thank you for that!!! 🙂
My winning moves: 1. Qh5+ Qg6 2. Rxg6 Nf3+ 3. Kf2 hxg6 4. Qxh8+ Kf7 5. Qf6+ Kg8 6. Ne7+ Kh7 7. Qxg6+ Kh8 8. Qg8# 1-0
What if 1. Qh5+ Kd8? It seems more resolute to 1. Rf8+ RxR 2. knight C7 mate
@@Awed1b Kd8 Rf8+ Rxf8 Rxf8+ Qe8 Qg5#
For the puzzle, does rook f8 also work? Black is forced to take, after which knight c7 is checkmate
2:58 Kf7 . White response with Pawn D4 activating the Bishop if black response with Bishop G7 black can play on maybe losing a knight and bishop but capturing the knight with bishop capturing Knight
Qh5+ Kd8 (If Black Queen protect rock take Queen)
Rf8+ Rxf8
Rxf8+ Qe8
Q or Rxe8 #
Bon. Mais, il y a mieux. Rf8 Rxf8
Kxc7
after Queen takes e4 then white will play Knight takes c7 check then King d8 Rook f8 King takes c7 Queen to c5 check King b8 and Queen takes c8 is a Brilliant Checkmate.
Hey, absolutely love your videos. For trap #1, the move Nh6 by black does actually defend the threat I believe, because after white plays d4, black can play d6 which attacks the knight. The knight cant attack the f7 pawn straight away. Therefore, after Bxh6, black plays dxe5 and the attack is over.
According to the engine White is still winning and it's quite easy for Black to get checkmated. The counter-intuitive follow up is to trade the dark squared bishops, then check the King when he takes back. After this, lock up the Black Queen by playing the White King to F2.
Trap 4 @ 9:17
It is very good.
Thank you.
Welcome 😊
Tank you the new trcks🤗🐣👏and i
❤️❤️It very much
❤
Good tank you
This move is farbulous❤❤❤
1. Rf8, RxR 2. Nc7+ mate
Very good
Good job great tips very knowledgeable
Glad you enjoyed it!
NxP! any black response sets up the loss of black's queen to the Rook on f6 which is moved to attack black's queen while the black king is exposed to check.
Amazing
Pretty Good Video, as usual for you. Thanks a lot Qh5+
So, I solved the puzzle that he gave us at the end of the video, and this is how it goes. WHTE- Qh5+, Rf8+, Rxf8+, BLACK- Kd8, Rxf8, Qe8. Now white can either capture the Queen with the Rook and it's Checkmate, or white can capture the Queen with the Queen and it's Checkmate.
Qh5 doesnt work. due to Qg6, blocking check. true white can go RxQ, but the mating attack is stunted... better is the forcing Rf8+ RxR, Nc7 mate
Hi Igor, hi all! First things first: Thank you for producing all these videos, I really enjoy them a lot. That being said, I have a problem. Lately I stumbled upon a video of yours about Caro Kann Breyer with 3.Nf3, dxe4 4.Ng5 and can't find it anymore! Can anyone help? Thanks!
Unfortunately, I'm not sure which video you're looking for, but you may find this gambit against the Caro-Kann to be interesting: czcams.com/video/ZyA-9Kw50H4/video.html
@@GMIgorSmirnov Thanks for your reply. As always I mixed things up. The video was produced by Jonathan Schrantz. Best wishes for you (and all of us)!
also Rf7 must win. maybe Knight c7 or if black knight like to block it with Knight e6 than Queen e7 mate. or if knight goes to b5 to stop it, than Re7 with folloing mate.
Nice video
At 4:53 you get a position where GM Igor Smirnov says the most played move by black is PxP. But Stockfish indicates white is actually losing to other moves - a dangerous line!
It's a risky line indeed. However, defending the position as Black is really hard. Stockfish often evaluates a gambit to be 'bad' while in reality, people get good results with it.
@@GMIgorSmirnov Hopefully we are not playing Stockfish OTB !!
3:00 Knight h6 then we play d4
After black play to d6 then what we do ???
I wanna ask too
14:37 Re6+
Nice video 👍👍👍
Trap 2 . Awesome
Very enjoyable - especially with a glass of white wine on a warm summer evening - not sure all those moves will stick in my head though!
It was worth it anyway 😎
Dear sir, all techniques are good, when the opponent is not strong. We shall be thankful if you kindly share the tough technique and moves of the chess to defend strong opponent.
Thanking you,

after that smothered mate with the pony I was like Aahhwww Lorrddd have mercy on that beautiful move
First, congratulations for the video. 👏👏👏
The puzzle:
Qh5+ Kd8
Rf8+ RxRf8
RxRf8+ Qe8
Qg5#
Correct?
Or mate in 2: 1. Rf8+ Rxf8 2. Nxc7#
Is it Qh5+, Kd8, Rf8+, Rf8, Rf8#?
3:27 what if d3 or c3 creating an escape square for the king?
I love the kitty sleeping in the background :)
For trap 1, how about if black play kc6 instead of qh4?
Zdrasvuitie Mr. Smirnov, What is your Koshka's name?
Nice move I like it ❤️
for the last one: Qh5+, Kd8, Rf8, rxf8, rxf8#. I think that's right.
3:06 actually Nh6 is the best move followed by d6 so both Knights will be lost and there is no more checkmate. although White is winning
to avoid this trap, black must trade queens at the early stage.
Your subtitles/written conversation is blocking the visibility of the board. Please find a solution. Thanks
2:56 white plays d4 attacking the knight, but what if black responds with d6 attacking white knight?
White Rook moves f8 ch!, black rook × f8, and white knight × c7 mate
Puzzle....mate in 2 moves without losing a piece...knightC7 check... no matter where the black king moves...rook C6
wow so awesome !
best chess chanel !
Thanks! 😃
In first trap i have question what should i do after i open the diagonal in bishop and he/she Threatened my horse at E5
