At 4:43 winning move is Qxb7, Queen can't be captured due to Bc5# threat.
ive been playing casual chess for 45 years, i knew nothing about these traps…and sadly i wont remember them tomorrow…..great vid.
Thanks for yet another great video. My personal favourite is the Q sacs in the Blackmore D gambit
One of the most instructive chess channels, thanks for the content!
Very amusing! Thanks for showing!
I see a fork with knight D5, then queen recapture with threats of bishop C5 etc and a very dominating queen. This is even if black captures the rook (which instantly loses the black queen to bishop C5)
my favourite is here, and all of them are so awesome! thanks my friend
Spectacular as usual . Please what about Busch gass gambit ? . Thanks beforehand 🌹🌹🌹
4:35 Simply Qxg4 winning the bishop for free. Now if Nxg4, we get our queen back by playing Nd5+ with a royal fork. And if by any chance the queen takes on g4, then Bc5# is hasta la vista black!
Edit: Qxb7 seems stronger. Now the queen can't be taken on b7 as it lands into Bc5#. And if Bxd1, then Nd5+ is a royal fork with both the knight and the queen! On the next move, knight captures the black beauty and black's bishop and rook are still hanging!
4:30 Blackmer0Diemer Gambit variation, WHITE TO PLAY … Kd5+ Kxd5,, Qxd5 Bxd1 [to prevent checkmate by White Qxe5#], Bc5+ Qxc5, Qxc5+ K has four safe squares – d7 d8 e5 and 38, Q is exposed to the B. The game is materially equal. White can check with the Queen or the light-square Bishop, wherever the Black King goes; and will probably gain material advantage.
For first trap: 1. Qxf6+, gxf6 (or Kxf6),
2. Nd5+, K wherever
3. Nxb4, …. First 3 moves are forced… Bxd1
4. Kxb1, whatever
So, either you win a knight or knight and bishop for rook… not bad….
material is equal… white slightly better position
Thank you so much the 1 tectics is so cool ill going to use it to my papa
I love it
Hi Igor,
Always funny to watch the video's 😉
I am a chessteacher here in the Netherlands and I use your (short & funny) video's often for my students.
I show you another Queen sacrifice, what we call here Zeekadettenmat, no idea about the English name, but I am sure you know it!
Here we go: 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 d6 3.Bc4 h6 4.Nc3 Bg4 5.Nxe5 Bxd1 6.Bxf7+ Ke7 7.Nd5+#
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year
Best regards
Thanks GM
3:33 how if they move rock to d8. Counter attack white can be checkmated in one move Rxd1# or Qe1#
Kb7 Bd7 2. Kd5+
Thank you very much, I love every traps.
Queen x b7
