🔹 TRICKY Chess Opening for Black Against 1.d4 [Unstoppable Attack] –
🔹 The Unbeatable Bishop’s Opening (simple and powerful) –
🔹 Deadly Chess TRAP to Win in 8 Moves! [Tricky Gambit Opening] –
In this video lesson, GM Igor Smirnov teaches you a universal chess opening that you can play both as White and as Black.
It is an aggressive gambit that often gives you quick wins right out of the opening. This opening variation is filled with a lot of deadly tricks and traps that most of your opponents will fall for.
As Black, it happens when your opponents play 1.d4 as White, and you respond with 1…e5 (Englund Gambit) and then follow up with 2.dxe5 d6 3.exd6 Bxd6.
And as White, you can play this gambit in multiple ways. First, you may play 1.d3 and then 2.e4. If that’s too passive for you, you may start with 1.Nc3 and then play this tricky opening. Best of all, this opening variation also transposes from the Scandinavian Defense when you start with 1.e4 d5 2.d3 with a similar idea.

Very fascinated gambit! A ton of tactics are available. It is very tricky and fun so much!
Savage!

I've been looking for a strong universal opening for quite awhile, and I think I finally found it.
Большое спасибо, игорю !!
As usual, another excellent video from our favourite star coach, GM Igor Smyrnov.. I think simply saying Thanks is not justifies your excellent, illustrative, and dedicated efforts.. In my opinion, it is a dream for every chess player to have a wonderful coach like GM Igor.
Interesting how GM Smirnov found these opening moves and variations, it looks very effective!👍
Awesome opening
Me encanta éste Gambito!! ❤️Lo he utilizado muchas veces y la gran mayoría de las veces me ha servido para ganar en pocas jugadas.💪♟️
Gracias, Maestro👍

Hey Igor, great video as always. I was just curious, I play the same nimziowich defense (bascially what you showed in the video) as black, can the same gambit work if the opponent has already played e4? I'm struggling If they play dxe4 on the second move.
Chess engine evaluates white as losing … if black does not follow these steps … ?
Going to give it a go…
👍👍👍
Can you please do a video on the Elephant gambit next?
As a beginner he talks way too fast for me. I think I should for beginners site. But I have gotten some good advice and I shall return.
8:56 most of players play pawn h6.
What to do after that?
This is awesome. I just learned about englund gambit as a new player and I cannot wait to test these move against 600 elo players.
THANK YOU 😊
Wonderful opening ideas as always.
Such great explanations too!
You are the most generous and brilliant chess teacher.
Your audience is so small considering what a treasure you are, which to me only adds to the value of the knowledge you bring to the table.
I don't know how you keep finding these strategic gems which play right in to the most common moves?
Well done 👏 thanks again! 😊
This video, your commentary, both are lucid and extraordinarily useful…if one is able to absorb, meaningfully, the substantial amount of information and its complex interactions….. I know you need to be brief and yet cover the material; nonetheless, you might consider taking apart a video like this, focusing on one of its elements, with a bit more help for your audience to grasp, integrate, and then use the very fine insights you offer. I do watch and re-watch these, which is , of course, another way to the same end. Thank you for your very generous sharing of your knowledge and skills.
Thank you for showing that this can be used against the Scandi. I play e4 and wasn't sure about changing up my opening but I'll definitely play this line now against the Scandi.
