🔹 Deadly Chess TRAP to Win in 7 Moves! [Works up to 2200 ELO] - • Deadly Chess TRAP to W...
In this video lesson, GM Igor Smirnov shares with you a powerful chess opening trap for White that was used by the former world champion Bobby Fischer to defeat the world's no.3 player (Bent Larsen) in just about 10 moves!
You will also learn to use the same tactical pattern of sacrificing the knight on f7 (Nxf7) to hunt the Black king in the most common chess openings. For example, you will learn the attacking idea of Nxf7 in the Tennison Gambit from the Zukertort Opening and also from the Scotch Gambit chess opening!

Fun fact - it was these games against Larson that made the Soviets realize Taimanov did not intentionally lose 6-0 to Fischer and that he shouldn't have been punished as such. Fischer was simply playing at a 2800+ level (or whatever) in an era where no one had access to stockfish.

This is an important point. How good Fischer was WITHOUT access to study engine lines. It’s why I get confused whenever someone anoints Carlsen the best ever. How can you compare eras fairly? Can you imagine how good Fischer would be with the same advantages todays players have.

Larsen played this same line against Tal in the Candidates. Commentators said it was like waving a red flag in front of a bull. Tal said in his book, that if it was a simul, he'd think his opponent overlooked it, with the king being forced onto e6, but obviously with Larsen that can't be the case. Tal sank into thoughts and after 40 minutes calculating found some sort of defense and didn't sac.

[@tubeerv]

Thanks. I played in the USCF from 1967 to 1986, and followed BF closely, soon as I saw the opening moves, I thought, where the HELL was THIS game from?!?! Thanks for clarifying. However, it seems strange that BF, who was famous for not playing for draws against anybody, would, apparently, do so with the White piece, no less, in a blitz game. I've no idea why he repeated moves, nor what he intended if Larsen had not deviated. I remember Larsen crowing about him getting the top board over Fischer to play against Spassky in the 1970 "USSR vs the Rest of the World" and he, Larsen, got squashed in, like, 18 moves. I also remember him writing a column that "explained away" his 6-0 loss to Fischer that was titled, "Unlucky Heat Wave in Denver" (where the match was played, lol.

[@rainerausdemspring3584]

@@tubeerv Tarrasch was rather dogmatic, but he was a great player and was called "Praeceptor Germaniae" since many players learned form his famous books. It must have been a great triumph for him to beat the equally dogmatic Niemzowitsch in a spectacular game. His life was very hard - he lost all three sons very early. One died in WW I, one committed suicide and one died in an accident. Of his 3 daughters one died very young, too. At least he died "early enough" - in 1934 - not to suffer from the Mazis.

Alekhine defense trap looks so fun but it's very risky isn't it? What if, instead of 1. Nf3 d5 2. e4 dxe4 3. Ng5 Nf6, black plays 3. ... Bf5? That ruins the gambit and white is simply down a pawn, with a hanging knight. 3. ... Bf5 seems a natural move (if not as common as Nf6) even if black suspects nothing (or at least doesn't know this gambit). Is there a "backup plan" for white in the case of 3. ... Bf5, or is it really just risking it all on the hope that black plays 3. ... Nf6? Thanks for the great lessons!

[@rubinconineski526]

It is very interesting.

[@anujpj]

What a game!

[@bipl8989]

Stockfish won't make the move 6:25 Pawn-H6. When you pick the most common move from a database with a hugh number of matches played by nuBs, the most common move can very often be the wrong move. This is especially true when tricky traps are involved. A database only composed of matches played by advanced+ level players would give you much better results, since many of the junk moves would be eliminated from the statistics..

Wouldn’t Qb2xNb5 have saved the checkmate? Larsen then could have countered Fischer’s bishop check with the pawn or his bishop.

That would prevent the checkmate indeed. However, White will have a huge material advantage and Fischer would definitely win with an extra queen.
