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.
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.
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.
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
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
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 😊
@@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
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.
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.
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.
3:00 yes knight H6 absolutely works because after D4 you play D6 attacking whites knight then you just trade knights and there's no more checkmate threat
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
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
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
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!.
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
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?
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
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.
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
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!
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.
That is the solution for the winning move at the end of the video: 1- Queen to h5 (checkmate and the king has 1 move which is d8) 2-Rock to f8 ( another checkmate , the black has to take the rock moving the black rock to h8) 3-move the other rock to h8 (checkmate and u won)
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.
I an a newbie to chess but I know that never start your moves with pawn on f lane unless you are master of chess or your opponent is weak. It's too difficult to defend after moving that pawn
Not really in a lot of línes you play with the F pawn but its not recommended to newbies because a blindfold advanced player has an better board visión than a newbie
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.
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.
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: ruclips.net/video/ZyA-9Kw50H4/видео.html
Don't really know chess short hand but knight to c7 forces their king to d8 or e7, then rook to c6 discovered check from the queen and mate I believe..
Lovely video. I'd say there is a lot of fun lines that open up after knight c7 thanks to the discovered check after the rook moves (the black king has to move to either e7 or d8) after which a rook to e6 wins the queen for at worst a knight. But taking the rook in the corner and keeping the threats on the board is also playable even for an amateur like me. I think of all the fun alternatives, knight c7 starts most of it.
@@GMIgorSmirnov That is also true, and it is generally preferred to win the games instead of being greedy in capturing pieces. Or so I've heard at least. :P
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, Yours faithfully,
Ans ;Queen to h5 givibg a check to the king /- only way to refrain from the check is to go to d8:next pushing RG8 then1) Rook captures rook then move Rg8 check..then black Qe8t hen white Qg5

Make all variations of king's gambit checkmate video
1: e4 e5 2:Nf3 Bb4 3: nxe5+ Kf8 4: Qh5 Nf6 5: Qxf#
Wait, so what did the white knight at c3 do (1:17)? Seems to never have achieved anything, just a wasted move?
Look at the cat behind he steals my attention all the time 😂
Solution on the 5th example:
Scenario 1: Nxc7 Kd8 Rc6#
Scenario 2: Nxc7 Ke7 Re6#
First, congratulations for the video. 👏👏👏
The puzzle:
Qh5+ Kd8
Rf8+ RxRf8
RxRf8+ Qe8
Qg5#
Correct?
Or mate in 2: 1. Rf8+ Rxf8 2. Nxc7#
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
Trap 4 @ 9:17
That is the solution for the winning move at the end of the video:
1- Queen to h5 (checkmate and the king has 1 move which is d8)
2-Rock to f8 ( another checkmate , the black has to take the rock moving the black rock to h8)
3-move the other rock to h8 (checkmate and u won)
there is a difference between checkmate and checks
You need help with chess.
Number 3 can not be done, Rook cannot go to h8, If Qween h5+ check, Black Queen can block at g6..not checkmate
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
Thanks for the video

Zdrasvuitie Mr. Smirnov, What is your Koshka's name?
How do you beat pawn d6 at 3:04?
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.

Nice video👍
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: ruclips.net/video/ZyA-9Kw50H4/видео.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)!
qh5 check ,the only defence is qg6 ,if not to move mate, if kd8 ,rf8 check,rxf8 + rxf8 check mate
This move is farbulous❤❤❤
Rook sacrifice from f6 to f8, takes with rook f8 then knight c7 checkmate . Is it correct?
Your subtitles/written conversation is blocking the visibility of the board. Please find a solution. Thanks
Don't really know chess short hand but knight to c7 forces their king to d8 or e7, then rook to c6 discovered check from the queen and mate I believe..
the king can take the knight, no?
No the king cant take knight, Rook c6 will defend but Black Qween can block White Queen.....then it is not checkmate
Lovely video.
I'd say there is a lot of fun lines that open up after knight c7 thanks to the discovered check after the rook moves (the black king has to move to either e7 or d8) after which a rook to e6 wins the queen for at worst a knight. But taking the rook in the corner and keeping the threats on the board is also playable even for an amateur like me.
I think of all the fun alternatives, knight c7 starts most of it.
True, that wins the game. That said, playing Rf8+ first makes the following Nc7 to be a checkmate.
@@GMIgorSmirnov That is also true, and it is generally preferred to win the games instead of being greedy in capturing pieces. Or so I've heard at least. :P
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,
Yours faithfully,
LMAO
In the first one when he gets a new queen the Queen can get out ,& is poss for his queen to prevent the checkmate
What do you do if they go bh4 instead of nf6 in the first trap
Rh8+
Black rook says i am stupid😂😂
Ans ;Queen to h5 givibg a check to the king /- only way to refrain from the check is to go to d8:next pushing RG8 then1) Rook captures rook then move Rg8 check..then black Qe8t hen white Qg5
