It's called a "Bishop" Opening but there's no mercy for your opponent.
Sees f pawn being moved: "Yeah I'll learn this."
Realizing the first line is exactly my favorite line in Rousseau gambit but for white: "Yeah I'm definitely learning it."
I've been playing the Bishop's opening doing some of the rudimentary lines from Igor's video's from 2 years ago. I also started playing the Rousseau Gambit based on a suggestion from this channel. Only watching this video and the Bishop's Opening x King's Gambit video has made me realize how natural this opening will be for me to learn. The next thing for both of us to learn is the Vienna Gambit ;)
@@Blackmystix fortunately I alrd know how to play vienna gambit, but I forgor to re-study this vid so thanks for making me check it out again (I have goldfish memory).

@@SM0783 and what happens, If instead of pb2/pa2 -> ph6?
H6 followed by Ke7 with an intention to play Rg1# (if gxh6) or Rf7 if he doesn’t. Black doesn’t have a defence.the main idea is to close the h file.
As a counter to whites Qh5?
- Start with e4 and e5, then play Bishop C4 (Bishop's Opening) [0:03-0:10].
- Add a powerful attack to the Bishop's Opening by delaying kingside knight development [0:24-0:56].
- Push pawn to f4 before developing the knight to f3 for a stronger kingside presence [1:02-1:21].
- Exploit exchanges on f4 to develop your bishop and gain a central advantage [1:27-1:41].
- Respond to opponent's Knight g4 with pawn f5 to seize space and target their knight [2:41-3:09].
- Use Queen h5 to create a checkmate threat on f7 and bolster your attack [3:31-3:45].
- Develop your pieces aggressively, using Bishop g5 to disrupt your opponent's queen [4:02-4:20].
- Place your knight on d5 to intensify the attack against your opponent's king [4:27-4:35].
- In the face of pawn to g6, recapture with the f-pawn to maintain pressure [8:00-8:21].
- Utilize Bishop g5 to create a pin and exploit the absence of the g7 pawn [8:57-9:20].
Hello from Argentina. I use it in the local chess in Torre Blanca to avoid the Falkenbeer countergambit in the King´s Gambit because when I do Bc4 and Nc3, I control d5 and I can transpose to the King´s Gambit without the Falkenbeer.
Merci pour tout ton enseignement pour cette année 2023 et bon réveillon pour une bonne année 2024 pour toutes ta famille ❤❤❤🎉
Happy new year Mr. Smirnov. Great channel.
Thank you igor. Love your channel.
Merry Christmas (belated) and a happy new year dear coach and everyone.😊
Happy New year our dear coach , and thanks a lot for great lessons which helped me much to improve my chess level ❤❤
Happy new year! ❤
Hey, Igor Nation. Would you ever consider playing some of your openings against volunteers (maybe subscribers) and talking us through your thought process? I think that would make for a great series amd some awesome content!
Igor nation Vs: @GothamChess. I’d love to see a game between Igor & Levy
That thumbnail is hilarious!😂
I wouldn't want mr. smirnov to be advertised as a clown like some wild chess players...eg Gothamchess, but it's pretty wholesome and old-fashioned in a sense of some way.
Lovely video❤❤
Thank you sir
Thank you very much its a game changer for me!!🎉🎉
🎉
Thank you Igor Sir to mention Indian students 😍 Very Happy New Year 🎉
Thanks a lot Igor for this soo nice opening for white! I use it as black as You also has showed called Rousseau Opening! 😊
Love your videos, thx a lot!!❤❤❤
❤
GREATEST THUMBNAIL HE HAS EVER POSTED 😂❤❤❤
I think I know the answer to the puzzle. First you play pawn to h6 and after he captures it you play king to e7 and after black does whatever you play rook to g1.
Final move can be rook f8 if black never captures or pushes g pawn.
That's a great observation!!
Black suffers from back rank issues and there no moves for his rook. In best case scenarios, black would love to promote to a queen, however, white king comes closer and the black suffocates. H6 shuts down the only escape square for the king.
Was indeed a very helpful video and great opening. Just won a game with a nice checkmate
This works checkmate confirmed 😂! Love this man’s channel. I turned on notifications just to win more games! Biggest problem I face now in 800-1200 is pawn to D4 while I’m playing as black. On my way to grandmaster
That is a nice position, one side of the board is simplified, both side want to castle king side, perhaps white might not as it has the initiative still.
Fantastic move..
Happy new year for you grand master igor smirnov & all of "igor nation". May god accpet our wishes for peace & prosperity.
Happy New Year!
The move is pawn to h6 no matter what he play we do king to e7 and rook to g1 mate
Hi....This is from India....We all are a big fan of you.....Your videos are very nice....We will be really grateful if you pin our comment....Lots of love from the Indians❤❤❤❤
I have learned so much from u...thank u❤😢
❤
Saludos from Cali Colombia. Is there any need to worry if black plays Qf4+ after pf5?
No spoilers - I got the first move of the puzzle - but it is tricky to prove the mate pattern plus find the best counter-move if black sacrifices material in order to stop the two passed pawns.
A great video to end 2023 would love to start 2024 with a French Sicilian crash course maybe?
3:26 I would like to mention that instead of moving the knight , they can givee a check by queen and after that play that knight fork.. in that case white will be devastated
1.R:f8+ K:f8 2.Rf1+ Кg8 3.h6! Then if ...3...gh then 4.Кe7 b2 5. Rg1+ Kh8 6.Кf7 and mate on g8 next move. If 3...g6 then 4.Ke7 and mate on f8 next move.
what if black went bg4 instead of ng4? do i just block with the knight?
Hello GM Smirnov, I have to disagree with your move Rh8 on the puzzle. Here is the quickest straight line that I see for white to win:
Rxf8+ Kxf8
Rf1+ Black King has to move Kg8
Ke7 g6
h6 Black moves any piece, doesn't matter...
Rf8 CHECK MATE
Thank you for all the great content. I used to play the Italian but now only play Bishop's opening. Happy New Year!
hello, I've tried your solution to see if you are right, but even though it looks amazing you have a mistake in calculation.
Rxf8+ Kxf8
Rf1+ Black King has to move Kg8 -> so far so good,
but now you put "Ke7" and as a response to that black moves "g6"?! - why would he move that, that is a losing error, so black would play "h6"
after that white can trap black in h7 and try to mate him after a few moves by "Kf7 or 8" and "Rg7", but it just can't, black will always take the queen out and protect the mate!
Let's get back...
Rxf8+ Kxf8
Rf1+ Black King has to move Kg8
after that the only winning move for white is h6
In conclusion you had a good idea, you just executed it wrong, but basically yes - you proved Igor was wrong with his solution.
Have a nice year everybody!
@3.42 But what if after Qh5 black just plays g6 (instead of castling)?
Pawn h6
11:01. Rxf8. King recaptures Kxc1 white plays Ke6. Black moves anything suppose pawn at g6 to g7 white plays rook to Rxc7 black promotes to queen then Rook to Rc8 smothered checkmate. I hope I explained it clearly since I am a novice .😅
3:46 why king castle it can move the g7 pawn. Actually this type of moves destroy our tactics and we lean towards hope chess and lose games. I tried ruy Lopez variation but very little time got advantaged and players have reply to ruy Lopez so don't get carried away and play accordingly ❤
This is exactly what thought,so....what do you do if they move pawn and don't castle????
Listening theory extensively ruins our game and we fail our Natural tactics. Theory is a drug which doesn't last long 😂😂
r xf8 check,kxf8+ rf1 check,kg8+ ke7,if black move pg6+white move ph6,so black mate in one move
Puzzle: 1. h6!
If gxh6 then Ke7 and Black is helpless against Re1#. If g6 or g5 by Black then Ke7 again and Rf8 will be mate. If any other move, then Ke7 and Rf8# is unstoppable.
how do you get Ke3?
Ke7 - being dyslexic! @@nekrose
What happens if on move 5 black plays ...Bg4 attacking white's queen instead of 5. ...Nc6?
Happy new year 2024🎉
That last puzzle I would def never see in an actual game but as soon as I heard hilarious first move, it was easy and I almost saw the idea from the distance before becauee obviously the first move to calculate is Rxf8+ and idk, just delulu, but thanks
Move is Rh8 rxh8 Rf1 kg8 h6 then rook checks/checkmates and white king inches forward to deliver checkmate
Solution: h6
If: gxh6, then ke7, no matter what black moves, rg1 follow-up will be mate.
If: g6, then ke7 just the same, no matter what black moves, rf8 follow-up will be mate.
If: black makes any other move, then ke7 just the same, and no matter what black does, either rf8 or rg1 will be mate.
Auguri dall'Italia, sei in gambissima!
So when I push my pawn to f3 most people play bishop to g4 anyone got an answer to that would be a big help
Your king can't move two places you have to move your castle to your king, now you can't castle - when playing me
Pawn H6, King E7, Rook G1 or F8 depending
excellent! By the way in the funny puzzle you push your pawn forward to h6 and whatever the opponent do next, you advance your king and then you will have mate in 1 with your rook
I don't see it: h6, Rxg8; Rf1, Kg6 escapes, and one of the pawns Queens. How about Rxf8+, Kxf8 (forced); Rf1+, Kg8; Ke7, but then h6 leaves the K an escape square.?
@@bubbahottep8644 -- I think he means after the beginning of the solution, which Igor shows as Rh8.
@@larrysulky7614 I see. Thank you. Rh8 did not even occur to me.
Watching this because studying for exams dont seem sognificant. But my parents think im studying 🤫
I enjoy watching your tutorials, it helped me a lot, and I tried buying based on your special but it did not give me the offer you showed!!!, anyhow, I have a question, at the beginning of your explanation, when you moved the Q to H5, why you did not push Pond G7 to make the Q go back or change position? Happy New Year to you too. Thanks for your time and everything you doing. here what I was trying to get Order summary

Ive played 600 games in the past 45 days. done so many puzzles....960 elo....watched vids.. reviewed all my games, committed to learning. Ive went from a 750 down to a 250 back up to a 450 and now am getting kicked in the arse again and am down to a 330. WTF. How do you become consistent? And regardless of how principled I play sticking to setting up in the middle, Ive been getting destroyed in the mid game. Im so Frustrated and dont want to quit chess but im about to.
Edit: I just switched from 30 min game back to 10 min game and won 6/7 games. That was the problem. I would get so frustrated waiting for players for 2 to 3 min at minimum...
If I play f4 and my opponent Just capture my knight on g8 then what😅😅😅
For the puzzle
I would move the pawn to block escape before bring the king closer and checkmate with rook
Nah, just move the white rook from C1 to F1. Checkmate.
h5 move for black
In the puzzle, isnt Rf1 just checkmate right away?
Rh8 Rxh8 Rf1+ Kg8 Ke8 g6 h6
netxt move mate
❤❤❤❤❤❤Happy New year ❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤ Happy New year!
Puzzle...Ke7, black makes any move, Rf8 checkmate
This looks like rousseau gambit for white
puzzle:
1. Rxf8+, Kxf8 -> Rf1+, Kg8 -> h6,gxh6 -> Ke7, Kg7 -> M3
2. Rxf8+, Kxf8 -> Rf1+, Kg8 -> h6,g5 -> Ke7 (Ke8), then its M1
thats the best i can do. :p
Too complicated. Just rook from C1 to F1.
What if black moves bishop to f2 (check) rather than night to f2 after white advances pond to f5?
Yoh. What are you talking about bruh! 😂😂
There's no bishop here.
Answer is advance ph5 to h6. If black takes, play Ke7 then Rg1 checkmate.
Look again bruh@@moseskamau9915
it's like the lucchini gambit but with white 😂
3:43 pun intended?

bro isnt this just exactly the vienna
Nice puzzle. As wild as Rh8 is, both it and h6 aren't that hard to find once you hit on the theme, entombing the king.
I always enjoy your videos.
h6
White h6 win after Rh8!
How do you actually get these to work in a game? It seems like a choreograph movie. I never have any game play like this. Or any of the formations you show. I keep trying them and they never work. It results in me losing. To 800 eol players. Consistently.
King e7 then rook check
H6
The funny part is, I was able to solve the chess puzzle up until where you stopped. I see Ke7, but if black pushes a pawn, the king can escape.
Edit: Oh, you have to push the h pawn before ke7. I read another comm…I mean I solved it all by myself.
Lets say they go pwn to beside bishop? You have lost the plot, do you know how to play chess?
W f4
B h5
W Nh3
B f6.
No one plays g6 they all play h6 right away and I got nothing.
Notice Me Senpai! Notice Me! 🤓
No sir. You do not get to use the term "horsing around" when talking about a N. This is your first and last warning. Do not horse around like that ever again. Please and thank you.

@GMIgorSmirov website is not working on checkout page. Can you please look into this?
There was a temporary server issue. Our website is working now. Sorry about that.
What about bishop g4 , black attacking the white queen, instead of knight g4?
h6
