In this video lesson, GM Igor Smirnov shares with you a deadly chess opening trap to win in just 7 moves. It is a variation from the Scotch Gambit (from the Scotch Game) which happens after the following moves: 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 exd4 4.Ng5.
The main idea for White is to sacrifice the knight on f7 with Nxf7 and deliver a powerful attack against the Black's king with Bc4+ followed by Qh5+, planning for a checkmate similar to that of the Scholar's Mate.
A great thing is that it works even against advanced level players (according to the statistics of games played). It works extremely well till the 2000 rating level and even some players up to the 2200 rating range fall for this trap.

does this still work if they move pawn f6? I tried to get it a few times and my opponents never move their h pawn only their f pawn lol
What do you do when black queen play f6???
Somaliano99 gambit. Pls. That is a good name it is a pirets. Trick to take a ship
.
I have tried numerous 'sure fire', 'deadly', 'beat better player' videos. Here's the problem, my opponent hasn't seen the same videos and so doesn't know which moves he should make to fall into those traps. My opponent is a computer and Mr. Lenovo seems to know all the things not to do.
The database of moves is strictly based on human player moves. You can't beat AI with these openings as they are obviously playing the best possible moves according to the known chess opening theories. Even Chessmaster 5000 (released in 1996) had all the known chess openings hardcoded and didn't fall into any trap...
Exactly what if the king moves into e8 after the first check then u gave up your knight for nothing
these things only work in blitz and bullet games where people dont think
These traps are designed to be used against humans. Computers are way too strong anyway. Best of luck!
@@redstarkboxingsportsnews4289 - What do you mean e8? That move is part of the trap.
I suggest the name "The Haggis Gambit". Because it's quite similar to the Fried Liver attack, and it's based on the Scottish gambit... ^^
What about the fried scotch gambit
I was about to suggest the same, then saw your comment.
Hyper Fried Liver Attack or Accelerated Fried Liver
It's creative indeed. The fried liver attack, the haggis gambit... I wonder what's next? 😀

QxNg5? - I am 65 years old and just started to play chess again, but I see the black Queen can QxNg5
@@Erling1956 So, after white moves his knight to g5 the queen can kill, that is correct, but then white can just snipe the queen with the bishop it has on c1.
OKAY WHAT!!! I watched this video honestly I only watched the first bit of theory for the main trap, I got so excited I jumped right into a game and delivered that EXACT pawn checkmate. This... is... insane. Thank you!!!
Same!
First game he played d5 and i lost...
@@emilleakovic6397 I have been at this for a negative 100 elo and have yet to have them play H6 or the Bishop move to use this.
You’ve been very lucky. These « traps » rarely works. I’m a beginner and play against players rated 400-800 and it didn’t work against none of them in 10 tries. Let alone doing this against players above 2000 or even 1000 lol.
I would like to join the coaching classes of you, especially on the openings. You are presenting
a number of wonderful and unknown and interesting variations. Thanks a lot!!!
You're most welcome!
Fascinating video! I would love more deadly openings explained
Thank you sir for this delightful lesson. Keep up the good work.
🙏
Thanks a lot, it was beautiful and you explained very well 👌
Thanks a lot Sir i won many games with it.What iif opponent plays pawn f6?
Hello Igor!!! Greetings from Costa Rica!! 🇨🇷 Huge fan of your work!
Hi Igor, that´s a really tricky line. But I suggest, you could explain how to salvage the position after the opponent played simply f6 after Ng5. Thank you for your amazing content anyway!
Never play f6.
What do you mean hy never play f6
yeah f6 is what I hbe been getting
@@d7omxlgame166 That's one of Ben Finegold's rules. :D
I've been missing a while congrats on the GM and keep up the content
Thank you sir for your amazing chess tactics.
What do you do against 4. f6? Is there anything that can be done other than retreating the knight?
I believe the answer is play 4.) bc4, then on move 5 you can pull your knight up to g5 if they don’t play h6
You’ll be up in advantage atleast from there
I love all the content you put out and i command you for it.
it helped me a lot.
This new video on scotch trap on move 4 Ng5- Be7 5 Nf7 Kf7 6 Bc4 ch Ke8 7 Qh5 ch g6 8 Qd5 is met with Bb4 ch.
and black is better.
One million like and thanks. A very nice teaching.
First Congratulations GM Smirnov, your videos are super excellent. 2nd, just a small detail, at 2:28 timeline, there is a checkmate with Qf4#. Thank you for your great teaching.
ohhhh, I never knew there is another checkmate.
Yes, it is good to deliver checkmate with a pawn as well. :)
@@GMIgorSmirnov I tried this in my school chess competition... but the girl doesn't even know what she is doing she was simply playing lmao.
Thanks Igor, just played this opening and my opponent followed the most common moves every time. I love the castle check!
Looked at some of these lines in opening explorer on lichess. I think it work well against those who instinctively plays h6... but a bit stronger player will chose Be7 in stead...
and then its not hard to refute the Nxf7 sacrifice. Actually if they find right continuation after the line at 9:11 : (Be7, Nxf7, Kxf7, Bc4+, Ke7 (even if they play this weaker move) Qh5+, g6, Qd5+)
here they can play Bb4+... witch should not be too far fetched to find, and its white witch is in trouble here... if c3, then black can play Qe7, if white grab bishop; cxb4, then Nxb4 with attack on quenn and the e pawn is gone fall with a check... perhaps Qe7 is not easy to find, yet again in that line its almost the only move.
I gone try these lines in the local chess club if there is blitz games tomorrow. I think probably the 1600/1700+ rated players will refute it and smell the dangers. I think a bit stronger player will not play Ke8 either... they will see that queen can come out with check on h5.. anyway i think it will be gun to try... i started to play in club not so long ago and managed to achieve a rating og around 1500. So i will normally loose on a 1700 or higher rated player.
I will report back how it goes.. not sure if i will use it on the 1900/2000 rated players.. i think they will refute it easily, but again ofc normally they beat me anyway.. so it could be worth a try.. i guess they will feel umbarased if the fall for it 😏😌🙃😕😉
A genius like you can make such spectacular moves, thank you Sir
Great style of teaching 👏
Started the video, paused the video, created a quick match of online chess, started as white, played this opening and check mated my opponent in 10 came back and subscribed
Isn't that cheating? Might as well just use an engine.
@@garbarrage Its rlly not when it can easily be prepared
@@MargosEntertainment If it can be easily prepared, then prepare it.
I mean, it's a technicality, but it's still cheating.
@@garbarrage He didnt mention pausing in between his game. He couldve just paused the video as he did mention and started a game and played it by memory...
I'd be lying if I say I haven't fallen in to this particular trap. Great analysis! I am looking forward to test this :)
What would you do if instead of refuting the Knight with h6 they moved f6? That you give the king a safe space after g6. Would that be the 30% that loses? Because I'm not been able o find an answer.
What if black plays pawn to f6 after your horse moves to g5?
very funny, thank you!
0:38 Priceless body language. I love it when GM Igor says this almost as if he is loathed to admit what he did.
What if they play f6? happens more than you think
“Scotch Gambit, Ng5 variation” that sounds like an idea. I won’t put my name on it because I don’t necessarily deserve it lol. Been learning the Scotch and this has helped with many new ideas to explore. Thanks for this video!
Awesome thanks for sharing
Hi Grand Master Smirnov! I love your interesting openings. Could you please tell me what should be played if Black goes Nh6 on move 5 🤔 I don't believe this was covered in this video or the other one you mentioned. Thanks 🙏
If they play Nh6, your dark square bishop can just capture the knight and you end up checkmating the opponent with the same pattern
@@joustmaster_69 sorry, I think I meant on move 4*
my knight on G5 will not allow my dark square bishop to take their knight on H6.
Thank you so much, GM Smirnov! I enjoy your lessons, style, approach, and all the new tactics that you help bring to others. You are blessed. Keep doing what you do, awesome channel sir!
Wow. Growing up I played chess almost exclusively against my dad and always tried this opening up to the knight fork against the queen and the rook. I wasn't good enough to see all the ways to follow up though.
Nice, as a chess player, I particularly enjoy your description of mating with a pawn, esp the chuckle 😆 i like a name incorporating the knight and intoxication lol drunk from smirnoff vodka or whisky from the scotch lol
I'm a beginner in chess I'm at level 30 and I keep beating it with this signature move that you taught me it's a few other things I have to do not exactly to the tea what you do but I'm catching it
wow, thank uu this is so helpful
so simple and easy to remember!
I did an experiment and tried this in every game if I played with white pieces. It took me exactly 80 blitz games to get the knight sac, bishop check and king e8 forced checkmate. So 40 ish games as white. So don't expect to get this work in every game because of course many people play different openings. I got only one other game before the succeeded 80th game where my opponent played h6 attacking the knight but after sac and bishop check he played king e7 instead of e8. After all this is pretty fun trap to try. Oh and my blitz rating has been around 800 during the run.
Great video, I officially name it the "Igor Scotch Gambit". I've only recently started studying chess, a lot from your videos, thank you.I just tested it against the Li bot, just to see how far a beginner (900 ELO) would get with it. I lost at move 26 (did make 1 blunder, but it felt solid. It seems that the bot has it programmed. I will definitely be using it in my human (no engine) rating games, as an alt to the Italian opening.
Thanks! 🤗
Indeed, gambits work the best against humans. Computers don't get scared, don't blunder etc...
I was trying to attempt the fried liver, forgot the lines, and have accidentally done this trap line several times as I played naturally. I have been asked by my opponents what gambit this was, but I really didn't know what to tell them. I just tell them, its a modified version of the fried liver I made myself.
How should you respond to f6 after Ng5
Amazing Video!!!
Thank you very much , your plans worked very good
Great to hear!
I love these rare variations that you give us. I play a bunch of them to great success.
Brilliant!!
Excellent!
I've found that most opponents play f6 to challenge the knight instead of h6. What is the counter to that move?
play bishop first
@@The-mountain That's a whole different opening, is it not, the Scotch Gambit? This whole video revolves around knight to g5 on move 7.
Maybe qh5 check, because now after f6 they cannnot play g6 to stop the queen
2:28 for anyone wondering what happends if black plays Nxe5, threre is Qd5+ Ke7 is forced and Qxe5#
That's a new gambit...thks..
What do you do if they play F6 when you move the Knight? I tried the same type of moves but he also played G6 to block my queen and I was lost.
Then the trap won’t work but you’ve gotten compensation already by weaking their king side
@@corylong5808 there is not compensation or weakness, black can counter attack the center with d5, the bishop in c8 has an exit, d5 is one of the best response the pairs of bishops are free for to exit, the black pieces can play ordinary knight to f6 like a traxler attack, if knight takes f7, king takes knight in f7, bishop c4 check!
d5 played by black, e4xd5, to choice for black b5 or knight c6 to a5 the classic variation of traxler attack, in chess never play 2 times the same piece, after e5×d4 the white pieces plays a second time their knight in g5 and this is not good, i don't recommend this opening for white, for white there is the scotch gambit with bishop to c4, the black pieces can play bishop f8 to c5 it's the giocco pianissimo, bishop f8 to e7 is playable so, if e5 attacking knight in f6, knight can play in e4, rook to e1, d5 or bishop to d5 attacking the knight in e4, the knight can go in c5, Smirnov is a grandmaster i respect his work for the fan of chess, but i'm thinking his recommanded move is a mistake
Igor ur a genius. thanks 😊
The "Scotch Mist Gambit" is my suggestion, because it is fleeting and over in no time at all. Thanks for the tutorial.
Bourbon Gambit
What I like about this move is your opponent will think you are new to chess by sacrificing the knight. It hides your real intentions.
This has worked wonders for me, i ve lost count of the mates i had after the play h6
The very 1st time I had the chance to move my knight to g5 my opponent attacks the knight with the same pawn that the knight is supposed to capture on f7. It's incredible how these video never show the moves that my opponents use.
Lol
Yeah so in that instance this opening wouldn't work as it would create another cubby for the king to hide in preventing checkmate. Also he only showed the most popular moves played but there is still a high probability that your opponent will play another move that the engine doesn't predict
Same thing happened to me LOL what a garbage opening, and if anyone does that 1 simple move you can play the game 1 pawn behind
You're supposed to go to the same spot anyway, forking the rook and queen - but don't waste your time - I'm ZERO WINS and TEN LOSSES so far. It's not worth the one odd time it actually works.
Amazing!
The move that seems to take the fun out of it is 4...f6 right?
Black moves the pawn away that White wants to grab and does White have some tricks up his sleeve against it?
Sure, ...f6 in itself weakens Black on the kingside, but at least he is probably not going to be mated in a couple of moves. In addition, for the time being, Black is up a pawn and White moved his knight already twice, most likely a third time, while not regaining the pawn.
So after 4...f6, I guess Black should be okay weakening his kingside in view of gaining a few tempi, right?!
Would be nice to hear what the trick on this move is. Otherwise it looks fantastic.
thank you! trying to beat someone with that trap and it worked! thx again! :)
Glad I could help!
I tried it one time and it absolutely worked. Thanks. 😂
Literally first game i tried it out on it worked using the main line you demonstrated haha
Interesting Opening, if it works then it works.
However, black have alot of moves to consolidated and gain advantage.
Am surprised the majority plays h6 after Ng5, I thought f6 is more natural but I suppose f6 would block Nf6.
what happen if black bring the Q to E7 not bishop?
Then this gambit is refuted
That first opening you did is related to one of Bobby fischer’s games but the one you have shown was somewhat I guess a faster version.
Love it, how about the Smirnov Gambit? :D
😜
I tried this, but as soon as I played Ng5, my opponent played d5-preventing the bishop move and leaving the knight looking silly. OK, I was playing against a program and that’s not what the plan is intended for; but it seems to me that d5 is not such a hard move to find in this situation. It helps Black to develop his pieces. The fact that it prevents Bc4 is a bonus from Black's point of view.
I suggest the Smirnov gambit!
Easily refuted by 4...Bb4+, I figured this move was going to be covered since it's a very natural response and a similar theme to the Traxler Counterattack
It's very fun game respect for my teacher chess GM Igor Smirnov🙏
🙏
I say we call it the Igor Gambit. :D New sub!
This is MAGNIFICENT!!
This worked 8 games in a row! Terrific, thank you very much!
Excellent!
Just pulled this off in a blitz game, remembering the quite wonderful mate in 6! Thanks again Igor for the amazing videos!
Fantastic
I am a less than a novice player; this guy made my heart stop...I love chess!
In addition to the Stockfish recommendation d5 Bxd5 Kg6, the immediate Kg6 (omitting d5 to keep the extra pawn) should refute this line pretty cleanly. The king just runs to h7, essentially castling by hand. Then Black's kingside pieces come out and there is no attack, with Black up a piece. To make matters even easier, I'd expect many club players to play Qg4+ in response to Kg6. Then after Kh7 Black threatens d5 to win even more stuff.
I suppose not many players would find Kg6 or d5 followed by Kg6 in a blitz game, but blitz is about the only format where this line has a decent chance of working. I'm betting this 70% win rate comes from mostly blitz and bullet games. Don't be surprised if it fails badly when you try it in a serious game.
Just checked the lichess database. in Blitz and Bullet, under 1% of games went kg6. Even in Rapid and classical its below 10%. 96% play Ke8. So yeah, you can pretty much count in it that no one will find that.
@@WhiteThunder121 word will spread.
I'm 900 rated and my first game with this against 1400 ended with the forced mate in 5
I won some matches with this gambit thank you so much
What happens if after knight g5 opponent plays f6? Do you have to move back and just transition to something else?
After Ng5, if f6 is played, the trap falls apart, and White needs to play Nf3 to gain neutrality (the best outcome). Better for Black after Ng5 is Be7 where White is now in a losing position with a score of -2.2, according to Stockfish.
Thanks for the question! I'll wait for some more questions from others and perhaps will record a continuation then.
If f6 then you have no choice but to go back, Knight sac here doesn't work because after sacrifice, Bf4+ and Qh5+, black pawn on g7 is supported by h7 pawn thus render the sacrifice useless.
@@redace4821 If your bishop is out first, you can win rook that way. There are a few variations on this, Nigel Short used this.
I'm interested to see your analysis of 5...Bb4+; or ...d5 or ...f6, if you would add it sometime.
Don't spoil it..... After d5 show is over.😄
this worked like a charm the first time I tried it
Any ideas on how to proceed after black plays pawn d5, bishop takes, bishop e6? I encountered this two times and havent found a winning position afterwards
Thanks, Bro for this brilliant trap! it will help me in my upcoming tournament.
Sir please cover a toturial about sicilian grand prix as white and sicilian defense as black . Thank you.
tried it on an absolute beginner. He just played knight f6 as his first move. completely crushing this strategy. xD
Everyone plays queen to e7 after knight g5
I've been playing this for a year. Sad it got publicized but great commentary on the bishop line as I thought that was the best refutation.
I'm glad to know you got some value from the video!
Wow amazing
What do you do if in the last variation, the king retreats to F8 instead of E8? I'm having a hard time finding a good refutation for that.
You lost a piece and may be the game.
dude this actually works lmfao thanks haha this is crazy!
Wish you spoke more about the variations where h6 wasn’t played. It seems like an opening that solely depends on the opponent blundering h6, which is a pretty bad lesson to teach. If you showed more variations, it would help.
He also showed Be7 but I agree it could be more in-depth.
Hi Danny,
If Black plays 4...Nf6, then 5.Bc4 leads to the Lolli attack covered here: th-cam.com/video/r9-TLiwsOvg/w-d-xo.html
The classical Scotch Gambit is analyzed in this video: th-cam.com/video/W_Jytlily8M/w-d-xo.html
If you have any specific questions, feel free to share. If many people like this opening, I'll record a continuation.
I"ve been trying this against the computer and after Ng5 it keeps responding with Nh6 to defend that pawn.
Just tried this after watching the video and it worked right away. It looks so crazy to have the king check-mated at b6 with only 1 other piece captured.
Awesome, works for me who has been playing chess for just over a year. Thank you.
lol, first game I played after watching this video, i was able to checkmate my opponent in 12 moves. Thank you for the video!
I’m looking forward to playing this. I’m calling it the Scotch Gambit: Leeroy Jenkins Variation.
Played my first game with it and got the win after …h6!
In the position where White has played Nf3 -> Ng5, if Black responds with Bf7->Bb4, what would be the significant tactical opportunity ?
Problem is incase Black King goes to Dark Square G8 , after White Bishop Check then there is no mate and White is pretty safe. Just incase King moves to f8 there is a mate
7:08 pawn d5 is easy to find... played a rated 700 guy who did that, then Be6 which is almost as winning for black.
Aw, the good ol' Stanky Leg gambit. Classic!
Hello. Very good video, but sometimes the oppontent play Kh6. What should we do ?
