Qa5 stops first trap

3:10 is there a continuation if black play Qa5? ( because the knight is pinned ).
On the 4th trap, would you take the centre pawn with Q while you have the pin, then you can attack the corner?
At 10.57 , pawn f5 can deflect the queen with capturing the bishop in next move
cool video of chess
To show beginners dubious opening traps has very little do with chess teaching.
No teks.
Bold of you to assume I can convert a one-pawn advantage
1:14 If black plays e5 what should i do? What's the best continuation.
You misspelled 'Accelarated' in the dragon section for the segment title
in first case he move knight instead of rock pawn than wht will we do now …
Thanks for sharing
Hi, I've a question, What to do if black's queen goes to a5 in the first trap? does the trap still work?
A lot of stuff happened in 4 years. It would be amazing if you could update this video.
Good shii my guy 💯!! Seems like everyone around 1400 is playing Sicilian Defense 😂
what if at 3:07 black queen to a5
In one of the certain positions in this video the queen goes to B6 why wouldn't the queen just go to a5 and pin the night?
In another position in the accelerated dragon or whatever when the pawn recaptured back on C6 it would have been the other Pond that Queen's pond
There was a certain position in the dragon lever fish variation where Bishop could go to G4 and attack the Queen the gain a tempo for black
When the night moves to E6 black can capture with the pond on ff7 you'll still lose lots of material but it won't be checkmate
I liked on Paulsen Variation
Sillian defense
Lot of souvenirs for me with this video 🙂I'm from Belgium and when I began to play chess o'Kelly was one of our few GM. Problem in this system is that white can go for the Maroczy setup and it's though to play as black when you are not correctly prepared, maybe a good Idea for a next video ?
I played the Kan system when I was beginner but I lost many games and I changed for another one, but definitely one I would be ready to play again if I had time to review its theory.
Also there is another famous trap with Bc4xe6 when Fischer had reviewed a position that was commonly played in USSR at that time and he used it in tournament shorty after
I click on all his recommended videos 😊
Why does Qa5+ work @12:20 but not @7:24 ?
In the second trap black would play f6
