Nf6 can be met by Bxf7 and the Queen will fall
Isn't pawn d3 a move against danish gambit?
What if they play D5 on opening move?
"black can avoid the danish gambit by resigning immediately" I CRY LAUGHED
Puzzle is sacrificing the bishop on f7 like in all the lines, then after king takes, Ne5+. Pawn is pinned to the queen so after king moves, you grab that bishop on g4
Thank u
Not too must grab B with the N. If QxB the PxN. Thanks
@@ArmyRanger483e5 no queen capture, if pawn takes then qxq
I'd very dollar for donut in bullet you'll get plenty of times black goes dxe5. Obviously anything over around 1500 you can't expect that but if you're playing at 3 figures I can see it coming up.
Igors obvious pride in the wandering pawn makes me so happy 🤣👍
Abba would be proud of this “dancing queen”.
😂😂😂😂

Old school. Most ppl probably don't know the analogy. Love ABBA❤

Time to invent the Swedish gambit
Great video on the Danish Gambit. Lots of these ideas have been explored in several old videos, it's nice to have them all here at once. Thank you.
Igor has helped me go from 700 to 1300 in blitz in less then a year. hes an amazing coach on these videos.
Where do u get that rating?? How can I check my rating????
I laughed out loud when Igor said (6:42): "This little pawn on C7?... really made it in life!" - Almost as funny as the "Collect the harvest" line he says in a previous video (true Igor fans out there know the video where he says this lol)
Dear GM Igor, you sir, are my favourite TH-cam chess teacher BY FAR!! Thank you for amAZING content!
Haha, yes, he's the funniest chess youtuber out there
Well he really made it in life but was killed immediately after his promotion. :)
9:36 sack bishop f7, black captures bishop, knight e5, king moves and knight takes bishop g4. If black captures knight on e5 then you take queen on d8.
Thank you
No I don't think so. Qd5 is the move. It threatens immediate checkmate, moves the Q out of the pin, and also threatens the pawn at b7. Black cannot defend both the checkmate and the b7 pawn, and the outcome after that is pretty decisive. You win a knight and black is in a lot of trouble, and you have tempo.
Why not knight d2?
@@ThatGhostjerryHow does that make White have a significant advantage?
Once again thanks GM Igor!!Really like this Danish Gambit and you covered all the variations which is really great!!
Glad you like them!
You share the "secrets" that nobody else seems willing to share. I love your lessons!
Love the Danish Gambit! SO many traps, hard to beat. Most losses happen bc I blunder....a lot. lol
Hardest part is getting them to accept it.
Or the second pawn on b2
sounds like me and the MOSTLY easy englund hartlaub/charlick! I was playing a game yesterday and blundered a mate in one being too anxious to end it and dismissing the rook lift that grabbed my queen instead of advancing it for a corner mate supported by a rook.
I love king's gambit DESPITE a 5% or so losing record, but really want to give the danish a try. I refused to even look at it years ago and absolutely didn't click with the scotch, but now that my fundamentals are 300+ points better and I've spent a lot of time tactics training, I'm thinking I want to try it out and see if I can get a winning record with it, if not the same 2:1 win stats I have in the charlick and mieses carokann.
that my results are sooo spectacular following Igor's charlick plans, I'm very optimistic that this might click with me too. a big problem with my king's gambit games is I don't like some of the strongest lines like quade gambit or pushing h4 against g5, but I still clobber higher rated opponents in under 20 moves almost daily. perhaps the danish is even better! Lev at gotham chess and Nakumura rate the Danish as "unbeatable" and king's gambit as garbage, so that's 2 more gambiteer votes.
Fantastically covered!... although if black knows what he's doing, he can easily get out of the opening with a slight edge. However, that is more the exception than the rule (well, on my petty woodpusher-level anyway). 🙂
The king doesn’t have to take the bishop.
Perfect timing. I was exploring this opening very recently, being disappointed that you did not cover it, and then several days later, you do. 😊
Take a look at my analysis at your leisure.
@@januszsroka5653 Nuh uh
you are actually something bro love your videos trust me keep it up you'll be on top
Great video! Really enjoyed studing these tactic's and Gambits.
"Can your opponent avoid this . . . ?" "Of course, he can just resign up front !" . . great line !
You make great videos, thank you. Will you consider making one on using Lichess to study? I try to use your video teachings with Chess Lv. 100 to practice. The game doesn't always follow your options, especially at the >1400 rating, so it is tough to practice what you cover. I am interested in taking an opening and really studying all the opponent moves to avoid blunders. Is there a way to use this database to make opponent moves and see what the best moves/lines are? When the game deviates from your video lines it beats me pretty easily due to my limited knowledge of the other lines. I am interested in seeing what higher skilled players do as well as what the recommended move is and why. If Lichess doesn't have those features is there something that does you recommend?
The last line in fact is the best line for Danish Gambit players, with a much less complicated movement of pieces and it wins faster. It is covered by a different YT channel.
That's a new and very good gambit for me but somes players more advanced know how to deal with this,but at least this give to us a quick and good developments for our pieces.Thank you again Igor your video are really appreciated!
Yeah pretty sure id quit chess if I got rekt like this 😂😂
Please make some principle, tactics, traps based video for endgame
Huge fan of this channel and this is the coolest opening idea I’ve seen yet
Thanks!
I noted everything down and studied all the line but no one actually accepts the gambit for some reason they are all afrait that i take back with my queen and i dont understand why literally in over 50 games only on accepted and then decided to park his pawn on d4 without taking my other pawn its frustrating that it just doesnt work
I love all the options... Striving for everything from a foolproof to a failproof solution. 🤷♂️👍👌👏
I'm starting to learn chess hehehehe thanks a lot!! i saw your videos on fb reels❤❤
I Love danish gambit. Thank you Igor!
This has worked well for me, only part where I face discomfort if the opponent declines at any of the 3 points, It gets confusing and I start playing without a plan or advantage.
You never disappoint Igor
Just love your videos, I have improved since I started watching your lessons
Keep it up
thnks, Ive played this as my only white opening, but I still got som good tips!
Very good video! Both informative and entertaining. Love your videos!
Glad you enjoyed it!

I like your videos. They help me out a lot thank you
Nah, he would've attacked you're queen with his knight when you tried to pin the bishop to his queen
This and the Scotch gambit are my favourite. Top video.
Достаточно подробно раскрыта тема. Лучше чем "уроки готема" на ютубе. Отличное видео.
I can tell Polish people are not your favourite people!!!
Statrted playing chess 1 week ago.. Thanks for these videos, really helpful
Welcome! Good luck with your chess journey.
"of course! he can resign upfront!" i love you so much
Chess keeps surprising me. Even after so many years. And thanks for your pristine presentation 🙏
My favorite trap is if the opponent declines the gambit on turn 2 by playing f6 instead of capturing your d pawn, not only are they already losing, but if you capture their e5 pawn and they recapture, they immediately lose to qh5+.
How is that an immediate loss? They can respond with g6
@@dannygoldsmithmagic Ok your right, I meant to say that they will lose a rook after qh5+ g6 qe5. Its not checkmate but I would consider black lost at that point.
@@wdude9997 I see
I’ve played for years this gambit with good results. However the most challenging variation is Sorensen Defense
1.e4 e5 2.d4 exd4 3.c3 d5 where white has no advantage whatsoever, and a harder to play position.
For this reason and a few others, the whole gambit makes no sense.
This is VERY close to the opening that I usually play myself (except that after e4 e5, I play Nf3, to which the opponent mostly responds with Nc6 or d6, and follow that with d4 and the rest; so technically, it is the Scotch game).
As for the puzzle (this is one that I often face), I play Qb3, forking their b and f pawns, and it also gives me the option to defend my knight without ruining my pawn structure. Here, taking their b pawn is usually the most fun, because I sometimes end up getting the knight and the rook for free.
The alternative is Bxf7+ followed by Ne5+ which also wins a pawn. With Qb3, what happens if Black plays Be6? Bxe6 and Qxb7 both seem to win back a pawn but that's all, and Black isn't prevented from castling. After Qxb7, Nd7 defends the Rook.
Since we are all adepts of Igor Nation, it means that we are all e4-e5 players (say hi to Rousseau Gambit), therefore we deal with Danish Gambit a lot as Black. For this reason we simply know how to counter it thanks to Stockfish. All these Danish Gambit-players instantly fall apart after you make 3 or so Stockfish moves in a row because they dont know right continuation and only know those wrong-move lines.
Take a look at my analysis at your leisure.
9:36 I think the right move is Qd5, as it threatens checkmate on f7, they can try to defend either with 1) the queen or 2)the light square bishop,in both cases you can go Qb2 threatening the rook, and in case 1 you take it, or the second case you can grab their defending bishop or continue in some other way, but damage to their structure has been done
Nice idea. I think Be6 Qxb7 Nd7 limits Black's loss to a pawn (and you're already 2 pawns down). So Bxf7+ as suggested by others may be more damaging.
9:35
I would play Bxf7 and Kxf7, Ne5+ king goes somewhere and we win the bishop
"Wow that was incredible, way to go mate!"
one of my favorite gambits.
7:10 The e-pawn made every move a pawn could: moved two squares; moved one square; captured en passant; captured; promoted
In the early nf6 line after e5 black has bb4check ideas and d5 and keeps advantage.
Thank you for the great video. I've seen a lot of tutorials about the Danish Gambit, except this one explained it the best and offered amazing lines! After this I feel so confident, that I could take on a GM with this opening. Except I have one doubt, because when I checked the opening with the computer, it offered a brilliant line, and I was confused about what to do if someone plays it against me(The people who only look at opening and literally know every line). So I wondering if there were any challenging lines against this computer made line. So what do I play after 1. e4 e5 2. c3 exc3 3. Bc4 cxb2 4. Bxb2 Nf6 5. e5 d5? Because after d5 the bishop on c5 is being attacked and if we take the knight the computer suggests 6. exf6 Bb4+! 7. Bc3 Bxc3 and black is doing well, and if 7. Nc3 then Qxf6!!.
Don't listen to foolish advice to play an incorrect gambit. There are many smart gambits and play them.
@@wjd2339 You may think this gambit is foolish, except you forgot that every player is not Stockfish. There may be some downsides here and there, except it can trick many people who don't know the lines. Many people, including myself have seen success with this gambit. All smart gambits are much more accurate, but much more known, that's I believe this gambit has potential. I am simply asking for a line after this crazy I found.
@@wjd2339 I don't think GM Smirnov is claiming you will win every game with the Danish gambit. Have you been drinking?
Hi Igor. I enjoy your vidieos (thanks). I have a question: in the Danish Gambit, if Black Bishop to e4 (5th move), White Knight to d4, Black Knight to f6 and White Pawn to e5, if Black Pawn to d5, White appears to be in a very bad situation. Thoughts?
A lot of the suggested moves by Black come from being too greedy and trying to find ways to hang on to both extra pawns, which gets him into trouble. There are lots of ways where he can give back a pawn at some stage and get a reasonable position. The Danish Gambit was very popular 150 years ago and was put out of business by masters finding ways to return one or both pawns with an early d5 when Black gets an equal or superior position. Of course you need to know those lines ... The other point is that many of these traps work in games played at blitz speed, but generally fail against opponents who think for a minute or two in classical chess - which were the vast majority of games until a few years ago.
Exactly! After 7.e5 black doesn't have to move away the knight, just counterattack with d5 and black is already better. Even if 7...Ne4 and 8.Bxf7 black skuld not take the bishop with King (mistake), just move to Kf8 and black is just fine.
Very true... but key word in your argument: "masters" 🙂
@@drjacovanniekerk Quite right - any of these gambits and sharp lines after 1 e4 e5 can be very awkward to defend if you don't know the theory, especially in quickplay. You may remember that giving back material with d5 is the right thing to do, but be unsure when to do it. I avoided the problem (as have many others) by switching to semi-open defences, eventually settling on the French where the strategy is usually clear-cut and the main tactics aren't hairy enough to stop you surviving the opening.
@@iankemp1131 I am more of a Caro Kahn myself. d4 still stumps me though. Tend to go for Alapin.
@@drjacovanniekerk I tried the Caro-Kann for a time but found it rather stodgy if I wanted to go for the win, but have done pretty well with the French. What's the Alapin defence to 1 d4? The only Alapin openings I know are for White - 1 e4 e5 2 Ne2 and 1 e4 c5 2 c3. I've been happy with Nf6 / e6 setups against 1 d4.
This little pawn on c7 really made it in life 😂
Fantastic instruction.
❤
Thank you! Cheers!
At 16.05 black played Nf6. Isn't this blunder ?
If white play as usual B×f7+ how the black Night save ? Pls explain sir
I was thinking Qd5, because it attacks b7 which would trap the rook, and threatens mate on f7
When I play against the Danish gambit I don't capture the b2 pawn at all, develop my knights and my bishops asap
How would.you deal with an early decline, with black playing knight f6 on the 2nd move?
Okay, so I'm also looking at some workout videos. The thumbnail to this video got me so perplexed for a moment, haha.
Need more about DANISH GAMBIT!!!
How did you find these absolute-level moves in these positions of this gambit opening? Which engine did you use to find them? I wonder, does an engine really suggest such crazy lines in its first top 3 choices?
Ironically most of these lines were known 150 years ago and were found by humans by trial and error in the days when people played the Kings Gambit and Danish Gambit regularly. As defence improved and countermeasures were found for Black (notably giving back some material by d5), they disappeared from master play, though they can still be found in old books. But they can still surprise an unprepared opponent at any level!
Wonderful igor thanks again
Thanks for sharing and teaching Igor. I loved the other ones with black player gambit. My Rating is going up in bullet tournaments.
he doesn' cover one of the better avoidance strategies,the early push of pawn to d6, which tangles white pieces
Have to admit, I have tried it and it's almost unfair... It works 😄 most importantly learned important concepts!
Nice work!
Love you and your game bro❤❤
Yeah this was one of the first openings I learned, but I only learned the first 4 moves and got wrecked cause I just started playing. Great coming back to this knowing how to use it.
At the 14:40 mark, what happens if the black moves g6? Doesn't that stop the attack?
puzzle: i know its not the best move but it work
kc3 and if black play a move that is not (any queen move knightf6 )
then kf5 if black takes queen bxf7+ kinge7 its forced and knight d5 its mate
I just played this and my opponent went q-e7. I defended the e4 pawn and check but I allowed my opponent to develop. Any suggestions?
“Refutation”: e4 e5 d4 exd4 c3 dxc3 Bc4 cxb2 Bxb2 Nf3 e5 Bb4+ Nd2 d5.
Bc3 is better than Nd2, but black can still just trade on c3 and play d5.
The real God level Moves bro 💯🎉🎉
I IOVE DANISH GAMBIT A LOT!!!❤
& Your video is super nice 👌
4:45 if he takes the pawn with knight it's equal
1. Bf7+ Kf7 2. Ne5+(taking advantage of pin on d1-d8)Ke8 3.Ng4
Wow, just wow bro!!
Everything brakes if black knight to h6 in the beginning 😂
Great analysis
Soooo...This scenario falls apart for me when Black plays D6 instead of taking on D4. Then when the Knight comes out I can't push the pawn to push it away. Our hero (the little upwardly mobile pawn) has a sad frustrating life where his ambitions go nowhere and he dies young. 🤕The tempo ends up screwy and I am left with lost material and a hole to try to play out of. Any suggestions?
This fails to QE7 if pawn ever pushes to attack knight. The only advantage of an exchange were to take place is black position would be a bit sloppy but then he’s up pawns and down a few tempos potentially
I forgot how many games I won with your help, thx Igor.. the great!
this is INCREDIBLE
Don't take the second pawn unless you're stockfish. As mentioned play d5. (1 e4 e5 2 d4 exd 3 c3 d5 ). Danish is an unsound tricks opening though, black always wins when the opening is used in TCEC. Course, we aren't engines so we can still have our fun.
i was watching workout videos and this randomly appeared i thought it's about having god level traps as the muscles 😅
great! thanks!
Super and thank you
Just started playing and even new players NEVER do the opening moves you showed. Like 1-10. They never take the bait…because that leaves your queen open to take their pawn.
In trap 2 my opponent played 8..d5 counterattack and it's the end of the trap. Capturing the knight or the pawn just makes you run out of steam.
Might be possible to get M2, M5, or M6 once you make the Bishop Battery.
M2: If the horse doesn't move, then: Qf3, Qf7#.
M5 or M7: If the opponent does move the knight, then e5, exf6, exg7, or opponent's knight moves out, then Qf3, Qf7#. Opponent could move the knight out after Qf3, meaning exf6, exg7, Qf7#.
Danish is pretty noice.
Little pawn made it in life!
7:49 can't black fork queen and bishop instead, quickly turning game upside down?
Nope, white horsey takes black horsey
3:42 - what if black doesn't accept the bishop and plays ...ke2 or kf1?
Doesn't seem like there is any plausible continuation and you end up losing a minor piece in the exchange
Do you offer private coaching?
I played it a lot when i was 1000 or so until like 1500. Now I am about 1700 and people either don't accept it or trade everything down and I lose. but below 1500 this is the most fun opening imo
Puzzle at 9:36 is Qd5. You threaten checkmate and also the pawn on b7, and end up winning a knight and destroying black's position.
Love it!!!
Loved this video
The wandering pawn should have a Danish viking helmet on from the start :)
As an added bonus, if your name is Dan, Igor's pronunciation will give you title to this gambit, and then you can collect royalties every time someone plays it.
At 15:56 why doesn't it still work to sacrifice the bishop on f7 forcing the king to move away from the queen and then capturing the queen?
I see now.Bb4+ afterwards winning back the queen.
1:26 black Queen goes to E7. The white pawn can not capture knight as it is pinned to the king.
