Igor, content idea: GM game analysis. 1. Pick a game you’ve never seen 2. Pick white or black 3. explain what moves you’d do in that situation and narrate as you think through positions Endless easy content for you and valuable for us.
At 8:38, can't prevent d6 without check on every move. Can't check three times without losing too many attackers. Every piece that gives check will be captured, including the third one. So there is no 3 move checkmate. Stockfish gives mate in 21.
I love all of these opening trap videos. But almost no one ever plays e5 in the opening in my games. Especially in blitz, everyone loves to use caro can to shut down tricky openings. Would be nice to see more traps against different openings

I see no possible mate in 3 (?): After 1. Rf4, black doesn't have to take the rook, can play d6 instead. Black is still lost, but mate is definetely further away than 3 moves. After 1. Rxe7+, there is only Qxe7 and Rxe7. Rxe7 would fail due to Qg8# mate in 1... But after black plays Qxe7 and white plays 2.Rxe7+, again black doesn't have to take the rook on e7, enabling Qg8# but rather play Kxe7 or even Kd8. Even after Kd8 (not taking back white's rook), only check left for white would be Re8+ sacrificing the rook. If white instead plays 3. Rxf7 or Qxe7 threatening mate in 1, black always has c7 and the d7 pawn is still guarded twice by King and Bishop. And if black decides to take back the rook with Kxe7, mate is even further away. Where is the mate in 3?😯😯😯
Transposition Alternate Move Order. There’s a fun aggressive gambit system I teach my students that might be useful for some adventurous souls looking to sidestep the Petroff or the giuoco piano and force things down the road to this gambit. 1.e4 e5 2.d4 ed 3.Nf3 Nc6 (if 3… c5 4c3 dc 5.Nxc3 gives a strong initiative) 5.Bc4 Nf6 (if 5… Bc5 6 c3 dc 7Bxf7 + intending Qd5 leaves black in a world of hurt) 6. 0 - 0 and you have arrived at the gambit position in the video.
Truly a very nice openning, very well explained!!!I However, I realy dont see mate in 3... can you please explain how? In my opinion in order to mate in 3 you have to keep checking the black king and there are 3 ways, Kf6+ ; QxR+ (Queen Sacrifice) or RxK+...
00:00:11 Attack with unexpected moves to create discomfort for your opponent. 00:00:55 Sacrifice a knight with Knight to C3 to surprise and unsettle your opponent. 00:02:54 Utilize unexpected sacrifices like Rook takes C8 to create a winning position. 00:03:46 Create threats with aggressive moves like Knight takes F7 to maintain pressure. 00:04:21 Continue the attack with strategic moves like Queen H5 to keep your opponent on the defensive. 00:06:15 Exploit opponent's weaknesses with sacrifices like Bishop takes F7 to keep the pressure on. 00:09:02 Maintain the attack by sacrificing pieces strategically, such as Knight to F7, to secure a checkmate. 00:09:29 Capitalize on opponent's mistakes by sacrificing pieces like Bishop takes H6 to finish the game in style.
Jonathan will be happy to see this. Sure i know the nakhmanson Gambit. But i try to play it just against players with over 2k. Below it the Max Lange is enough. 🎉😊
I see Rxe7, if Rxe7 then Qg8 is mate in 2, but thats not forced. If Rxe7, Qxe7, then Rxe7 wins (blacks rook cannot recapture on e7 again as Qg8 would again be checkmate) but again, its still not forced mate. Best line keeps the game "alive" for a little bit longer: 1. Rxe7, Qxe7 2. Rxe7, Kd8 3. Qxf7, c6 or black resigns.
The puzzle Rxe2 if Rxe2 then Qg8# if Qxe2 then you play Rxe2 he can't take with the rook due to Qg8# so Kxe2 and idk what's more is coming but it's a winning position for white also shouldn't the B2 pawn be forgotten, because of the back rank checkmate
This has always been my favourite gambit of all time, white plays like a nub in the opening and it's really hard for black to even sense any danger if they have never encountered it before. Kf6 is not something anyone would think of at first
