[@imanquliyevmhmmd4831]

08:05 is it Queen D5? Because, after that you can attack knight and make some danger in Rook A8.

[@Tkidddd]

Queen to e2

[@l3yousmtl708]

I think it’s bishop sacrife to F7 check, Queen to D5 check, then Queen takes knight E4. That remove Black right to Castle.

[@Ineedagoodname2]

Now i didn't look in to this much so bear with me here if i missed this but at (3:16) what if nf6? I mean it is pretty develped for white so i guess its playable but is there anyway to continue the trap?

[@beardoswat2365]

That loses to Queen takes f7+ & hunting the king out

[@Ineedagoodname2]

Alright, thank you

[@halfomillitia]

Answer: 1. Bxf7+ Kxf7 2. Qd6+ Ke1 4. Qxe4+ Qe2 5. Q a4 + Nc6 6. c4 b5 4. cxb5

[@georgie4024]

Bxf7 is best move for white

[@Drxcture]

Bxf7+ Kxf7 Qd5+ K goes somewhere and then Qxe4

[@danielweitsman3444]

Instead of black playing Qa5, why not Qb6? That safely protects against Rc7+, and also puts a double threat on the f2 pawn.

[@chrisdonnybear4173]

the Bishop on c1 will scare it from there...then if it takes Bishop there, the knight will check and take it

[@chesspuzzlesmalayalam9083]

N x e6 - Qe6 is better instead Qa5+

[@rajeshshetty6924]

Bb5

[@z.d.davidson]

Qf3?

[@shadowtroller6750]

Could be

[@shadowtroller6750]

Maybe i didnt found style myself to win because im almost starter but maybe better than them its why im here

[@TheAnshuman1974]

Puzzle: Bxf7+ Kxf7 Qd5+ forking the king and the knight. As this check can't be blocked, the king has to move and then we grab the knight. In the process, we got a pawn and took away the castling rights from black.

[@nbi4220]

There's actually a continuation which you didn't mention: 6. Bxf7+ Kxf7 7.Qh5+ Kg8 8.Qd5+ e6 9.Qxe4. This idea surfaces in a different opening where it is actually stronger than here. For this particular scenario Stockfish 15 thinks black is slightly better perhaps due to the bishop pair and center pawns. However those center pawns are "hanging pawns" and black has forfeited the right to castle - that h8 rook can be awkward. Black should be ok, but this might actually be easier to play from the white side in blitz.

[@ToriYamazaki]

It should also be noted that black can refute the whole shebang: 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 Nf6 5. Bc4 Nxe4 6. Qh5 e6 7. Bb5+ Nd7 (better than Bd7) 8. Nxe6 Nf6 9. Nxd8 Nxh5 10. Bxd7+ Bxd7 11. Nxb7 Bc6 12. Na5 Bxg2 =

[@edenhawk2425]

New "Magnus Gambit" lol

[@FungoLingo]

Cat bath!

[@saneledoncabe5559]

After Nxe6 black doesn’t have to move the Queen but can play …Nf6 attacking white Queen.

[@TheSpider-hs4jo]

I wonder why Magnus didn't capture on F7 with the bishop as others are saying, trade queens and then black can't castle and Magnus could break out his other bishop.

[@ChristyHan]

That's cool

[@3941602]

I do this. Great opening but bung it up after awhile.

[@DavidfromMichigan]

Kind of reminds me of the tenison gambit.

[@nicholasnugen3904]

Kitty!!!

[@karelian66]

Hi, thanks for the video, this is indeed funny :) The continuation does not look obvious to me after 7.Bb5+ Bd7 (Nd7!?) Nxe6 Qe7 (the fork on c7 is not good due to the discovered check).

[@echeadoga6370]

I would like to see the continuation of this sequence. The knight fork on c7 isn't looking good at all
