[@joe3205]

I love the grand prix, but often i dont know what to do when black puts the bishop on e7 or f6 preventing my queen from going to h4.

[@tominmo8865]

At <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="405">6:45</a> 1. Rxf7+ Rxf7 2. Ne6+ forks K and Q If 1....Kg8 or h8, then 2. Rh8 followed by bringing the c3 knight, e.g. Ne2

[@makjingjiun7175]

Good job 👍👍👍

[@manaumman9732]

2.Rh8 ?? Haw?

[@benjamingrunbaum3601]

Yeah, you'll win the queen, but you'll still be slightly down in material.

[@laugh_n_share_life]

@@benjamingrunbaum3601 yeah was going to say, black can definitely hold that game

[@Dev_712]

Just played a game with 94.8% accuracy with this opening. Messed up the move order a little bit but my opponent couldn't capitalise. Sacrificed my knight and rook to get two brilliant moves on my way to win the game lol. Excellent stuff, GM Igor 💯

[@GMIgorSmirnov]

Brilliant!

[@MISCHEIVIOUSLOKICHESS]

Please share pgn

[@charc0al_tv]

Love all these 15 minute videos going into different openings and tactical patterns. I subbed to your channel after you helped me crush my coworker who loves the wayward queen attack!

[@ayushyadav4400]

Got to give this compliment to you mate, extremely helpful details that u provided in this video! love the grand prix attack & more power to u

[@eclecticexplorer7828]

The other move would be Rxf7+!, which removes the f7 pawn that was protecting e6. If black plays Rxf7, then Ne6+ wins the queen. Black's other two moves are Kg7 and Kh7, with the last one being the worst of the bunch.

[@benjamingrunbaum3601]

Even winning the queen still leaves you behind though

[@HussnainJutt_100]

Thank you IGOR, You're one of the best chess teacher on KZbin, I really enjoy and learn alot from your videos

[@twentyrothmans7308]

Thank you, Igor!

[@mitchelltj1]

Thanks for another great lesson!

[@adityaaswani5817]

Thank you igor love these type of videos

[@kiraishim_0213]

I am a big fan of this channel and it really helped me a lot to go from 1400 to 1800. But I am still struggling in 1800 and stuck at 1600-1700. Can you recommend me books or concept based on my elo and my weakness, which is maneuvering to set up a position where it favors my tactical skills?

[@VapuR8]

Igor, when you will show us your up to date games with chess Grandmasters and Masters? Or did you quit playing and only doing intermediate level trainings? It would be very interesting to see your actual games with strong players, who are not easy to fall in tricks, maybe also if they fall into tricks and traps, I would enjoy watching these videos. Please think about this.

[@torikulkapur27]

I congratulate you for your channel and I thank you for what you teach, I would like to recommend that you include in your videos Spanish subtitles because we are many Latinos who follow your channel and that would help us to be more sure of what we learn thanks to you, and God bless you and may you continue to succeed day by day.

[@GMIgorSmirnov]

Awesome to hear that from you!

[@nazirkazi2531]

Once again thank you GM Igor for this great video! Quick question- is this opening to be played against the Sicilian only or can you play this against other defenses by black?

[@dg_yorick6814]

by definition, it can only be played against the sicillian. Your moves don't happen in a vacuum where you don't have to consider what your opponent is doing. You can't brute force an opening. However, the first three moves (e4, Nc3, f4) are the opening moves of the vienna system as well, so you can be a little flexible by learning theory for both

[@ClementineBurke]

always watch your video and will always see it, just keep doing and give your valuable time for amazing knowledge and information about trading.

[@davidrobertson1980]

Brilliant Igor

[@mahfuzmahfuz7688]

Great lesson Please make vedio about how to destroy double fianchetto system

[@Palimoe90]

Igor please make a video on the old Benoni

[@bhaswarmukhopadhyay5554]

My rating is 1800 and i won a lot of online games with this opening. Thank you for the video.

[@nc1609]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="408">6:48</a> Rxf7+ (Rxf7 Ne6+ wins the Queen) (Kg8 Rg7+ (Nxg7 Qh7#) (Kxg7 Ne6+ wins Queen) Kh8 Rh7+ Kg8 Rxh5 gxh5 Qxh5 Kg7 Qh7+ Kf6 Nd5+ Kxg5 h4+ Kg4 Qxg6+ Kxh4 g3+ Kh3 Nf4#

[@mushfiquealam6895]

At 6.45 you win the queen for a rook and knight... Would you please make a video about opening with white to get from rapid 1800 to 1900 or higher... I'm kinda stuck in rapid 1800 and wanna get passed this

[@cosmosgato]

2700 is a strong grandmaster. Rating inflation is real, I remember when 2700+ meant current world champion. 🙂

[@infrences]

World champion this year will most likely be 2700 lol

[@nadianamjilsuren4844]

It’s just rook to f7 check if rook takes rook then fork the king and queen if king moves to h6 then check mate on h7

[@CapturedMoments0007]

Well sir thank u

[@peterochieng9040]

@GMIgorSmirnov What's the best opening for black for a beginner and intermediate player?

[@zxvc849]

Sicilian defense

[@ellechero2008]

​@@zxvc849too complexe...maybe the dragon variation tho

[@mannycastel5997]

ne2 ,+then ng3. other way rxf7 check, rxf7 ,+ne6 check

[@Nathuram_Godse_Official]

Common opening ❌ complex opening ✅

[@DanacChess]

Complex openings are hard to navigate for the opponent too. That helps boost winning chances

[@jedrekpobocki7534]

​@@DanacChess As a Sicilian player, no it's not. GPA is easy to crush when you know what you're doing

[@DanacChess]

@@jedrekpobocki7534 I am a sicilain player too and I don't find it hard to counter

[@tobias4411]

Which is better, grand Prix or Alapin?

[@miqueljoancomarti]

Rxf7+ so you can fork the King and the Quenn

[@72lucious]

Now I need to learn *more* theory just to play my sicilian now

[@marknieuweboer8099]

Spoiling the fun: ~ 2...e6 3.f4 d5 4.Nf3 exf4. ~ 2...e6 3.f4 d5 4.Nf3 Nf6. ~ 2...Nc6 3.f4 e6 4.Nf3 a6.

[@charalargenumber8327]

this has to be the most annoying opening to face because you've got to think as black and most likely run out of theory very fast while the opponent gets to play Qe1 Qh4 and then throw every piece at your face every single game.

[@charalargenumber8327]

Probably tied for the most annoying opening with the rossolimo attack

[@joshualeopior9019]

Rxf7 Ne6+

[@Sackboy189]

Why would you not show black bishop takes at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="248">4:08</a> line? Why is the assumption that opponent wasted a move capture a pawn when all whites pieces are in front of the black king? So weird

[@lol-yz8fh]

then take back and sac the rook next move, makes no difference

[@tomasolsson1491]

It is English opening with more tempo. I like it a lot.

[@thetransferaccount4586]

i thought this was the recent arjun erigaisi game

[@psgtcomicschess]

nice

[@jessiecrisbagongon5557]

Aggressive opening❤

[@christiansekumade1223]

Ouch.

[@PMA65537]

I keep watching Igor and am in danger of going below 600.

[@prazertv]

I always get destroyed when I try that opening.

[@CarloRuiters-m5y]

Im stuck on 1500 an 1600 its like I don't want to make a mistake

[@farouqbaiti4315]

Sicilian is still great!😎😏
