In this video lesson, GM Igor Smirnov shares with you a less popular and deadly trap for White against the Sicilian Defense. It is from the Portsmouth Gambit (a variation of the Wing Gambit) which happens after the following opening moves: 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.b4.
Black is disinclined to refuse the gambit due to the positional threat 4.b5, kicking the knight back and disrupting Black's smooth development. After Black accepts the gambit either with 3...cxb4 or 3...Nxb4, you can play 4.d4 dominating the center.
The variations that GM Igor Smirnov shows in this video are all deadly. Just one wrong move would lose the game for Black and you will get a winning position in almost all the variations. Learn this deadly trap and beat the Sicilian Defense as White!

My answer: bishop c3(threatening mate on e5 while attacking the queen at the same time, thus black must sac the queen to stop mate). Rook c2 is an alternative but not as good as after queen takes c2, the queen get's away with the rook at least before going as compared to a bishop for the queen.
After Bc3 and the opponent's queen sac, I'd play Ne5, aiming for Nd7# mate. If they don't move the knight away, I'd sac my queen for the knight defending d7. If they don't take the queen, then simply move the queen to c7 or c8 and that's mate.
I think bishop a3 also works
@@kylebecker9Ba3 looks really passive and doesn't threaten Be5#. Black has Qe2 if you're looking to trap the queen.
@@front331 after Qe2 as above Qf4 ch. black interposes Pe5, the Qxe5 for the pleasure of mating with a bishop
Why not rook c2?
Thanks Igor for helping to solve moves that ive not played in 20years due to not having competition

In answer for white best move at 8:08, let's go for the King quicker. Bc3, Black Qe2, White Qf4+, Black e4, White Bxe5+. Checkmate is coming next move or two. If Black moves Qb6 after White moved Bc3, in order to throw pieces to block the checks, then White Be5+, checkmate is still coming, just takes longer. Black blocks with Qd6. White Bxd6+, exd6. White Qc4, Nc6 to block. After dxc6, and bxc6, White can bring in the second rook, but Qxc6 is faster. Thank you for the great videos.
@@JomariGuitarTV then black b6 to block
Very nicely explained 🙏
Wow another nice line revealed. I'm a true fan of gambit opening. For d6 sicilian i like delayed alapin gambit which also has a lot of tricks & traps, then i'm glad that you show us another gambit for Nc6 sicilian aside from mengarini gambit (e4 c5, a3 nc6, b4). i'm sure many sicilian players are still unware of this line and could loose early in the opening, no sweat for us. there is always a hanging line for us to solve to keep our mind working, and that evil laugh that we're all waiting for :) thanks for sharing your secret weapon & more to come!
I almost lost to this line the first time I faced it. Feel like 1.e4 c5 2.a3 g6 with Bg7, d6 and Nc6 is a good setup for black although I've never gotten to try it in a classical game.
This is my favourite chess channel, and I save all these tutorial videos in a dedicated playlist.
Just a little integration at timeline 3:20.
If Black decides to move Knight on a5, the line is absolutely winning for White. Here the best moves for both players after ...Na5:
... Na5 2. Bb5+ Bd7 3. Bxd7+ Kxd7 4. Qc2 e6 5. dxe6+ fxe6 6. Ne5+ Ke8 7. Qc7 Qe7 8. Qxa5 Rc8 9. Qa4+ Rc6 10. Nxc6 bxc6 11. Qxc6+ Kf7 12. Rb7 Nf6 13. g3 Kg6 14. Rxe7 Bxe7 15. Qc7 Nd5 16. Qxa7 h6 17. h4 Rd8 18. Qd4 Rd6 19. h5+ Kf7
Really nice & sneaky 👍🏻
Thanks John..
Very informative
In the quiz position, 18. Bc3 is best, and if 18...Qe2 then simply 19. Be5+ wins.
8:02 Bc3. If … Qe2, then Qf4+ e5, then you must do Bxe5+ or Qxe5+. Not dxee5(ep) as your bishop will be blocking the control of c8 by your rook.
If it was Bxe5+ Qxe5, then Qxe5 Bd6, Qxd6#
If it was Qxe5+ Qxe5, then Bxe5# Bd6, Bxd6#
Every time I view this, it is amazing. Wow
Thank you oh wise and mighty one...
RC2 immediately wraps up the game.
Rc2???
i like bishop c3 more tbh, you can threaten made on e5
4:06 if black plays Na6 then what is the best move for white?
Do you also have suggestions on how to off-beat them if they go 3. ... d6 or 3. ... e6 ?
This is the sickest mindgame opening I have ever seen. They surely must think you are a total sub 1000 noob after opening like this. The 3. b4 also doesn't even show up in the Lichess explorer, its that rare. And the best part is that ChessDB rates it only -0.09 so it isn't even really giving up equity. Great content, thanks!
The answer on the time 8:02 is Bc3 with the threat of taking queen and Be5# only move that saves the game is Qb6 or Qe2 and after the move Be5# (supported by Nf3) queen takes or blocks bishop and white takes queen
Nice... I calculated Qf4 instead of Be5, 1 move less for mate I think
@@raulsenaferreira I think you missed the line Bc3 Qb6, after which Qf4+ can be blocked with Qd6. So better is to give a check with Be5.
If they play right you'll end up queen trading where if the play right on this you'll end rating your bishop for their queen
8:05 What about rook to c2?
Hello, I would like to see how it transpose to the same position after 3....Nxb4.
My opponents regularly take the b4 pawn with night, then retreat night to c6 and completely avoid the lines suggested. Their elo is 1800 and up.
After move six engine says black is 0.6 better
What moves do they play?
Sir can u give me any suggestions for my upcoming classical rating chess tournament?
8:03 Bc3 is the winning shot. Threating mate on e5 and also attacking the queen. Black has to give up the queen or get mated immediately.
Nice. I never considered moving the Bishop. I saw RC2 trapping the Queen.
What if he plays qe2?
@@theguy3995 Be5+
@@theguy3995 then Be5 will force queen to sacrifice
Why not rook c2?
At 6:20 what if queen doesn't take d5 but Qa5+?
In answer for white best move at 8:08, let's go for the King. Bc3, Black Qe2, White Qf4+, Black e4, White dxe +, Black Kc8, White Ba5+, Nc3, White Qc8++.
I'd push pawn to d6 if takes Bishop mates if not just push again to deliver mate
Hi, I won a game yesterday with my team with this gambit in 15 moves, thank you very much !
Fantastic!
very nice gambit...I'm going use it in blitz game...
Have fun! Good luck
At 6:19 instead of d5 what if black plays e6? That shuts most of the way!!!
8:08 Bc3 Qe2 Be5+ Qxe5 Nxe5 winning the queen! Mate will soon follow..
Bishop takes E7
Queen f4
@@colins1402 Yes Bxe7 also looks good. Now if Bxe7, then Qf4+ Bd6 Qxd6#.
what if they play e6?
What if they don’t except?
Thoughts on this?
Bxe7, Bxe7
Qf4+, Bd6
Qxd6++
Nah Rc2 is simpler
What if at 1:48 queen moves to f5?
8:03 Bishop to A3....... White Queen can then go to C file for push to Black King.
Bc3, Qe2 or Qb6, then BxN, then Qd7
It’s very good trap, but it never works on my elo (1200). My opponents rarely play the “obvious” moves like d5…
I am 1800'ish & it works almost every time.
@@aleksjagger9770 I got to 1500 since then and it's actually very interesting how some traps are just now starting to work out. Not just this one but also other traps this channel shows. Some of them absolutely never worked at 1200 but they work at 1500 almost every time.
Rather like Deon on Sparkchess - which, incidentally, is equal to an Elo of about 1200 to 1300.
Absolutely agreed
10:30 damn good position. 👍
0:59 what if their reply to b4 y d5?
How about if black moves pawn to e6 4:35
What platform is this
what if oppo plays 6 .. e6 instead of 6 .. d5?
At 8:12 puzzle, Rc2 traps the black Queen!
What if 6. .. e6 instead of 6. .. d5?
Bishop C3 🔥
~6:15 what if Black plays e6 instead of d5?
Gotten the answer yet?
@8:07 Rc2
Imprisons the queen.
Very nice but there is an answer for checkmate...:
White plays: Bxe7 Bxe7, Qf4+ Bd6, Qxd6+#
there are many ways. endless. wow
Bc3
Doesn't Rc2 win the queen immediately?
Damn.. you solved chess.
time 08:03 the answer of that bishop a3
Nf6
At 3:06 black can play Kf6 brilliant knight sacrifice which prevents the queen from getting trapped and black is winning because black is up a knight
Bc3!!
and what if they took with the knight???
HOW ABOUT MOVES PAWN TO E6 4:35
Rc2 traps black Q
This seems to ONLY prey on the crazy aggressive early Queen attackers though. A principled player will retreat the Queen to a dark square like D6... As a Sicilian player I'd never do the Queen Pin early.
1:57 black takes air??
0:21 6:02 7:36 8:05 P 9:02
11:08
8:08 rook c2 captures the queen
What happens when Black takes the pawn with the Knight?
Got it I believe, first puzzle, Bxe7 , Bxe7, Qf4+, Bd6, Q x d6+#
I believe Bc3 is the right move.
@@saeidsazeshYes u r right, Bc3 then Be5+
8:03 *Bc3*
But we want to assassinate the king. No time to be chasing girls/ladies. 😊
How about Ba3... Clears White Queen for c file with Rook backup. Even if Black Queen take c file Rook,other Rook takes position.
To win your opponent with this line you also ask him to play with black pieces exactly that way.
There are many variations, this is one of them. You need to keep on learning.
8:02 the best move was queen b5 trap the queen ,then give the check with bishop on d6 and pick up the queen
What if their queen moves to e2 after the first move tho
Bishop c3
@@tobymurphy6744 Then the queen at b5 will take that free black queen in e2
10:23 I see Qxg2 , or o-o-o
The entire chess games are tricky lines, from move one. Grand masters know this, they are just envious of your study, haha
Q- a5
Pawn d5 to d6
Dude u need to keep track of turn.. at 1.28 minutes if black takes that pawn it's White's turn next.. how could you play next move by black??
Bishop takes e7 pawn sacrifice and then queen f4 check mate
It wouldn't really be checkmate black can block with pawn on e5
then eat it with gueen queen take and then take queen with knight
@@thelordtheking1 no actually the pawn was captured by the sacrificed bishop or even if the pawn was to block then simply en passant
We are commenting after 4 months lol so here is the timestamp .. analyse 8:02
8:08 rook c2 and the queen is trapped
If after white's pawn move to b4, black uses the knight to take it, you can kiss this gambit goodbye. Now, you've lost a pawn unnecessarily. The success of this approach hinges on (a) black captures your sacrifice with the b5 pawn (b) later in the game, black does not move the knight to d8.
He discusses the transposition at 6:10- you just push the pawn up on c3
Ba3
In your older video you called it "Smirnov Gambit" 😂
1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.b4 cxb4 4.d4 d5 5.exd5 Qxd5 6.c4 bxc3 ep 7.Nxc3 Qa5 8.Rb1 Qxc3 9.Bd2 Qa3 10.d5 e6! (or Nf6!) does not lose it seems...
Ba3, Black Queen is helpless then Qf4+
BC3
Rc2 and queen is trapped
instead of d5 to bring the queen out plays e6
I am having nightmares after watching this chess video due to this 4:53
Bc3,Qg6,Qf4+,Qc7,Q×c7#
at the 1:55 mark, what happened to the White Pawn on C4? All of a sudden at the 2:00 mark the Black pawn is on c3?
That would be "En passant" Buddy.
Queen to E8?
Wow! And then Nxe8 takes your queen!
bishop c3? threatening Queen and check mate on e5 ..
White to play: pawn D6
Bishop to e7.
Every road leads to checkmate. No moves dont result in checkmate. Thats crazy bro.
Mwahhhahhahha indeed
At 14:20, Black's king doesn't have to take the knight back. What if black just goes Ke7 protecting his queen?
It appears white's attack has petered out.
Good video otherwise. I needed another way to play against the Sicilian!
knight takes black queen
Xlnt
Haa😂😂 with that discovered check,if the black king comes near it's queen, then 😢😢boom
How about Rc2
rook to c2
Sadistic attack....
And this is not 1st time I have observed that u don't keep track of ur turns while examining
Remove translation text unable watch positions Exactly
Really nice & sneaky
Really sucks for me you made this video, I found this Rb1 variation after doing some research on your last video years ago :/ now everyone will know it, haha
POV: when you know all these traps and are hoping to use them but your opponent plays some random move.
I get u, but think of this: if u know what is their best move and they play something random, it means it's necessarily not the best move, meaning u can do something to punish it
Lol! Yes, I feel you dragon warriors!! 😂
Nd4 forcing blacks Q to take d4. Bd6+ exd6, whites Q takes d4. Winning
