This channel teaches the most surprising and unexpected, but at the same time, brilliant openings. All openings I'm using now are from this channel.

[@waimanyu2782]

I can't believe how little subscribers are on this channel. I learn more in depth lessons here than any mainstream chess channels. Well done igor please keep the content streaming

[@srilankamoscow]

That was great!! Goring gambit!!

[@joebidenbites1015]

great stuff, eye opening. hoping it will start to register thanks

[@Naborbukv2]

I strongly recommend you to consider renaming all of your videos in past as well as in the future. For instance, this one could be named "Goring Gambit #2" or "Goring Gambit. Part 2" depending on your stylistic preferences. Same goes for Rousseau Gambit parts and many (or even all) your videos. It would make it easier to find them on your channel via "Search" button (even though I simply save them in specific folders but lets not forget about others).

[@pumpkincoffee]

Your solution appeals less to the algorithms

[@spiritualherald]

Not a smart idea

[@bob1234881]

Trouble is when I went to learn the play and opened this one appeared about 10th.

[@TechSupportDave]

You should be able to pick up on the patterns based on which moves the enemy decides to make, categorising things by "gambits" is not a good way to play chess, unless you're extremely serious and extremely passionate about the game. But in that case, there are much more efficient resources out there for studying openings, theory, gambits, tricks, etc. Content like this serves mostly as entertainment.

[@stewy0013]

Although I am a 1. d4 player now, when I play 1. e4 I always play the Goring Gambit. It’s such an easy to learn, attacking opening and scores ridiculously high

[@maxpower586]

Great content as always

[@jeffkaplan9486]

GM Igor You are like the Holy Box (my Television), I bow to you. Who knew chess was so easy and so complicated ? ... and so beautiful. Every time, You teach something amazing. My rating has gone from 1000 to 1300. I'm an old man, 66. You keep my brain moving. Thank you.

[@GMIgorSmirnov]

🙏

[@simon555-55]

Finally got the knightmare variation with the left hook :))

[@McSrtroke]

Can't wait to try this. Thanks Igor! #IgorNation

[@infernalflamezz7480]

Great video Igor! My absolute favourite openings are the Scotch Gambit and Goring gambit!

[@michaelbostock954]

Hi Igor. Birthday greetings for yesterday (I think, 28/10). I enjoyed and learned from this. I love your cheerfulness😊

[@mariehart4294]

Great video! Thank you!

[@JustACuteFox]

This is like starting a table tennis player on long pips. Yea, they will get to 1400 or 1600 on that alone. And then collide with a solid brick wall when they meet the players that have played against it plenty of times *and* have a wealth of fundamentals and experience in addition. And thus is where the long pips or chess gambit player quits the game, faced with no other choice but to accept a decline in rating as they inevitably have to circle back to learn all the fundamentals anyway.

[@Ivy_Inquisitor]

At 3:19 after ...Bg4 white's continuation is riddled with many problems, 1. Qb3 Na5 forking the bishop and the queen, there seems to be no good continuation after this, Lets consider Qb5+, after c6 attacking the queen and defending the black knight with Queen, white doesn't have a great continuation. While black is at a disadvantage when plugging in the position in analyzer there is no decisive advantage.

[@denisoconnell8888]

After 7. Qb3 Na5 8. Bxf7+ is great for White

[@vinsanity982]

I like this a lot. My usual opening is the Scottish so this looks very natural to me. Except with better attacking potential

[@anandhakumarcdesai]

Vow👍 lot of variation moves👍👌🙏 thanks

[@GMIgorSmirnov]

😊

[@rv706]

5:00 - What if the Rook moves to c8 instead of d8? After the knight sacrifice and Bb5+, there would be c6 and Black has a material advantage. Where's my mistake?

[@yhq3141]

I won many games because of your videos. Thank you GM Igor

[@donaldekong4607]

🙌Sir Igor, you're still da best.

[@kramareva7446]

Thanks! That's my rating now...👌👌

[@sholikhinsy8053]

Thanks for this tutorial, I'll use it against my friend

[@masteredemu7013]

I like this, good job done

[@jeffersonparsons5519]

I just used this; and I love it. Victory in 12 moves. Thanks

[@GMIgorSmirnov]

Glad it helped!

[@roryharvey2727]

EXCELLENT!

[@BrianNuccio]

I love those forks. I think when you are at 1300/1400 level being able to play attraction forks like that will set you apart.

[@godwishnyambuya9737]

#IgorNation @7:33 we did not get our devilish laugh hahahah

[@prplt]

11:31 what if they play d5 instead (same idea as in the Danish gambit)

[@tobias4411]

Yes, d5 is best by black since all five available squares for the knight is bad for black. Always look for a counter attack when no good moves. Continuation: 8.e5 d5 9.exf dxc 10.Qe2+ Be6 (blocks) 11.fxg Re8 12.Bg5 Qd3 13.Qxd cxd 14.Bf6 and White is still slightly better.+0.50

[@nathanjones2995]

Btw you're my favorite Gm. I watch all of your videos

[@fjpajerski]

Nicely presented and very effective content as usual, but ….. still missing your cat in the background !!

[@JagmaChess]

I love your content

[@GMIgorSmirnov]

🙏

[@kchlou]

What a coincidence! I started teaching it to my 7 years old son today and THEN I saw your video.

[@1stMikeFilmz]

Time to go knight knight!! The sweet dream variation.

[@alexandere3362]

I first thought “isn’t this the danish gambit?” Then I realized you play 2.d4 there. Great vid as always

[@justanotheryoutubechannel3102]

"Dancing boogie-boogie" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@southerncharity7928]

Is this gambit named after Hermann?

[@gribbler1695]

Carl Theodor Göring introduced it into master play in 1872.

[@harish663]

What if black develop knight in h6

[@tarekabuhamdeh3645]

Happy Birthday Igor

[@DiligentDopamineDude]

“The Goring Gambit is definitely not a Boring Gambit” -DJ Smirnov

[@kylejerome9489]

5:03 what if he goes rook c1

[@sauravmahmud]

Grand Master, I'm a beginner level player struggling against the "King's Pawn Opening: King's Knight, McConnell Defense", Would you kindly help me with that?

[@JustACuteFox]

This line is a gambit but you didnt actually show what the *good* line is for Black to play against it. Surely, White should be prepared for whatever the main line is and to potentially have to work from a disadvantage due to their gambit, yes?

[@davidsteiner8688]

After all these variants I see it is better for black to play 4. - d5 instead of dxc3.

[@dadgbe4834]

15:01 can't they just take knight with rook instead of moving the queen

[@shlomisela404]

1st try , quick mate 100% success 😁😁😁

[@emmanuelike5497]

What of if black plays N.h6 to protect f7

[@Badbishop4point3]

Greetings Sir, would love to hear your take on my contention that Chess is an expression of pi. Have a video with the same name. Love your content.

[@nathanjones2995]

What if they push the pawn instead of accepting the gambit?

[@yzfool6639]

Then people stop playing the Goring Gambit against you.

[@sadiqliyev923]

👍

[@emmanuelike5497]

What if black play Nh

[@turifaturife8646]

What mean Elo

[@akshatgupta1990]

first comment sir pls pin nice opening(i am 1500 elo rapid)

[@thecrypticaura]

U usually cover the right way to play ...can u do that....

[@haseebmoin]

Your videos are good but you always show moves related to white and not much about black The other thing is your moves look easy but i fail when I play with computer specially in tough mode

[@octavianomariakatrinamille1549]

Draw

[@vijaysuryavanshi7704]

Don't like this line because of after playing e5 black counter attack with d5??????.......

[@tobias4411]

Yes, d5 is best by black since all five available squares for the knight is bad for black. Always look for a counter attack when no good moves. Continuation: 8.e5 d5 9.exf dxc 10.Qe2+ Be6 (blocks) 11.fxg Re8 12.Bg5 Qd3 13.Qxd cxd 14.Bf6 and White is still slightly better.+0.50

[@PMA65537]

This looks interesting but you could be fresh out of waldorfs.

[@JagBetty]

Great videos, but the stats you pull out for the most common moves are never the same as my opponents.🥴😎👍♟️
