Matinovsky Gambit - Chess Opening

The Matinovsky Gambit is a variation in the Owen's Gambit that starts with the moves:
1. e4 b6
2. d4 Bb7
3. Bd3 f5
Black is looking to give up the f5 pawn so the bishop on b7 can launch an attack and capture the pawn on g2. If white plays properly, black will never have the chance to take the threatened rook on h1.
I don't recommend you play this as black but it's important to understand how to attack it properly if you face this defense.
PGN for the game:
1. e4 b6 2. d4 Bb7 3. Bd3 (3. Nc3) 3... f5 4. exf5 Bxg2 5. Qh5+ g6 6. fxg6 Bg7
(6... Nf6 7. gxh7+ Nxh5 8. Bg6#) 7. gxh7+ (7. Qf5 Nf6) 7... Kf8 8. Nf3 (8. Qf5+
Nf6 9. Bh6 Rxh7)(8. hxg8=Q+ Kxg8 9. Qg4 Bxh1 10. Nc3 e6 11. Bg5 Qe8) 8... Bxh1
(8... Nf6 9. Qg6 Bxh1 (9... Bxf3 10. Rg1 Rxh7 11. Qg3)10. Bh6 Bxh6 11. Qxh6+
Kf7 12. Ng5+ Ke8 13. Bg6#) 9. Ne5 Qe8 10. hxg8=Q+ Rxg8 (10... Kxg8 11. Qxe8+)

This gambit is really interesting

[@jonbudi]

TERIMA KASIH 🇮🇩

[@TheSauceBoss]

So essentially, this is a terrible Gambit and don't ever play it.

Are you talking about yourself in second person?

[@elarts9581]

Which chess software do you use?

[@drajatkomar6705]

Mantap Jakarta hadirr

[@allanmarks2150]

Is there any free software or an online chess site that will allow me to setup this position and let me play a compute? Or if there is no free online chess sites that allow this setup a position and then play a computer, which online chess sites will give me this option of setting up and practice playing these moves, if I paid to become a premium member of that online chess site. It seems to me that this would be a good way to really learn to play these types of moves.

[@deocal]

I believe you can use lichess to set up a position then play against different levels of stockfish

[@mohammadsulieman6213]

Philidor defense..alapin-blackburne gambit
Please

[@diegocardenas6636]

Just won a game at 2100 playing this as black! Venomous if White doesn’t know what they are doing

[@hokiejoe17]

As of being 2 minutes and 33 seconds in, this Gambit looks wayyyyyyy too risky

[@1.4142]

That's a dirty chess trick

[@1.4142]

only good for bullet

[@brettdukhara3623]

No one would fall for it

[@CradilyBestPokemon]

I love gambits, I usually sacrifice my queen all the time.
I usually lose though.

[@mitchellcrouch586]

Ah a fellow Botez Gambit player. Hats off to you my friend

[@fundeath712]

Now to lose every game with white and never get punished as black, thanks!

[@dragonslayer8590]

At 5:19 you say "that the only way to stop the checkmate is Qe8. Any other option is a pretty quick forced mate" but I can't see why Bd5 lead to forced mate. This move stops Qf7 I think or have I missed something. Thanks

[@IVIasterIVIind]

You stop the direct mate, but after pawn takes bishop, white has a massive attack. According to the engine its mate in 8 moves.

[@shazbots]

Ooh, this is more of an anti-strat; anti-gambit video for white. XD

[@prashantchettri8764]

Hey Kevin. When will we see your beautiful face?

[@chesswebsite]

I have some videos recently that had my face in there.

[@treasonouspigeonpeckers957]

I don't play f5 in the Owen/English Defense. It is just weakening with little compensation. I play ...e6 and ...Nf6

[@izzylandyt]

got me thinking this was a hidden weapon for black lol clickbait

[@sketchworld828]

No this problem you were THINKING that it was a weapon.

[@person0809]

Third

[@dayg1127]

This is losing for black lmao?

[@kmndza]

first

[@TheCodkid4life]

what a terrible gambit lmao

[@clashicedelixir2187]

It's good trap in blitz tho. It slays below 1500

[@SuperLalulalu]

Why would black play this trash opening anyway...
