Are there any other Olympiad games I should analyze?

[@Woto4]

Yes

[@LoadRunner101]

Yes

[@daniels.3990]

Please analyze the game between karma gyelmo vs moustache marie-angel

[@hellopleychess3190]

You should play in the Olympiad and analyze your own games!

[@vasilismavroudis4211]

The ones from the Greek team 💙🤍

[@Joseferberger]

e4 e5 Nf3 d5 Nxe5 Nf6 is a transposition from the Elephant gambit. This is basically urusov with a tempo down.

[@JonathanSchrantz]

Good point!

[@treasonouspigeonpeckers957]

I just realized today why Jonathon goes for the Elephant gambit

[@SpaceCadet4Jesus]

Everybody loves Jobava.

[@nerdy_patzer8511]

4. Nxf7 is only around -1.4, I think that would be an interesting countergambit.

[@itskmillz]

Someone legit played this against me on my first time trying it lol it ended up in a very crazy game where we both blundered 10 times

[@charles-valentinalkan5681]

It's not -0.4 lol. Check deeper. It's at least a -1.

I'd be happy to see more of this type of thing. Maybe you could also play a few games with this opening and see how it works out for you?

[@fred2796]

Great teaching showing the line if Nf3 in the beginning there! Thanks Jonathan

[@mrmikereeds]

Good vid. I actually play the Petrov often enough so I'm going to look into this. Thanks!

[@robertehrenworth3310]

Thanks for covering this gambit. Even in this age of computer engines human creativity is still remarkable

[@joscooper5875]

I like this, and I love you describing a gambit as "so dubious!"

[@daniel-zl3me]

Love the gambit videos, gonna try this one out. Also RIP beaver gambit 😔

[@attlattila09]

I freaking love that you upload daily now. Genuinely my favourite content creator on any platform!

[@tipareth777]

I've studied some other things from white that Jobava plays. What I'm learning is that center pawns are a two sided coin. They are largely considered valuable for long term positional play but when you just get them out of the way of your pieces and then use those pieces well you can do great things as well.

[@jcoronav]

Nice analysis. Thanks

[@walterbrownstone8017]

Invented by Dmitry Lavrik, not Jobava. Jobava just mostlyplayed it against opponents that were 200 points lower. When he played it against stronger players, he lost.

[@noone-qu5ec]

That’s the thing with opening. The one who usually plays it the most, has found improvement in it, and played it at the top level will almost usually be accredited with the opening.

[@walterbrownstone8017]

@@noone-qu5ec Yeah I guess your right. Schrantz knows his stuff.

[@marcofrey2903]

I don't know, but I'm an avid Stafford and Petroff player so this may be a nice third weapon.

[@mcronrn]

Loved it! Just my ‘cup o’ tea’! 🤣👍🏽🙏

[@RNDev666]

2:44 ah yes. attacking the bishop.

[@raphaelhudson]

Very inspired by modern Scandinavian variations, arguably the most underrated semi mainstream line .

[@_v2.0]

Yeah, those Nf3 Scandi lines get crazy. That's where I learned the Bxh3 sac idea.

[@danielw2964]

@@_v2.0 what’s the sac idea?

[@_v2.0]

@@danielw2964 Here's a sample line I'd typically get: 1. e4 d5 2. exd5 Nf6 3. Nf3 Qxd5 4. d4 Nc6 5. Be2 Bg4 6. O-O O-O-O 7. c4 Qh5 8. Be3 d6 9. h3 Bxh3 gxh3 Qxh3 black has a lot of attacking moves w/ Bd6, Ng4, h5 and rook lifts. It's rarely sound, but often very difficult to refute in blitz. You can sometimes also get the other knight involved via Ne5 if there's a pin on the d-file.

4:15 that looks like one of the main lines in the Urusov Gambit with colors reversed. I learned the Urusov Gambit because of --- Jonathan Schrantz :P

[@mercuryatamolos3687]

Damn I was about to make the same comment

[@alex-poeppel]

Incredible attacking game

[@attlattila09]

Can you make a video on the O'sullivan gambit?

[@dennisharrell2236]

Very interesting and enjoyable. I don't think I would ever play this gambit, though.

[@Grandcapi]

Jobava's opponent's name is José Daniel Gemy. Gemy is his family name.

[@tp70874]

I think an effective refutation of this gambit is to play 5.Qe2 with the plan Nc3, b3, Bb2, O-O-O. This doesn't create a potential target like a pawn on d4 does

[@DAisaka09]

it's super similar to a Portuguese variation in the Scandinavian

[@fredgalvin9098]

This could also come about from the Elephant Gambit 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 d5 3.Nxe5 Nf6!? instead of the usual Bd6. I wonder if it ever happened that way.

[@Siderite]

Gemini Jose Daniel. LOL! That will become my new surprise expression, replacing Gemini Cricket.

[@allim7015]

Where's the ending song? #bringBackChicken

[@joeshmo546]

Hey Jonathan! I wanted to make you aware of a gambit that I came across called the Winawer Defence against the 3 Knights(1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Nf6 f5!). It's pretty unexplored except for one trap for white. I hope you look into it because I think it has potential. Thanks for the great content, keep it coming!

[@prussia9255]

the line you gave has Nf3 twice as well as playing f4 when the knight is on f3. It makes no sense

[@joeshmo546]

@@prussia9255 2nd was Nf6 sry

[@prussia9255]

@@joeshmo546 nothing to apologize for, but it still doesn't make sense. How are you playing f4 when the knight is on f3? And you have "3.Nf6 f4" which means white plays Nf6 (which is a move for black) and black plays f4 (a move for white).

[@Amoeba_Podre]

This is just a luchini gambit but with Nc3 intead of Bc4

[@joeshmo546]

@@Amoeba_Podre yes but it's a lot different, just as the Rousseau Gambit is different from the Luccini

[@bluemerlin271]

Great new gambit. Jobava always inventing stuff.

[@clivethereddevil3178]

Hardly new when it was first played in 1985

[@sausage4mash]

you know what D5 was my instinct with no knowledge of the opening ,that knight looked misplaced .

Love your videos

[@StraySlugcat]

I play the squirrel defense which is +2.1, I will happily learn a +1.7 gambit as sneaky as this

[@Amereius]

"Dubious" is only a computer chess term.

[@wolfgangwiesinger9502]

I will play this grap

[@456death654]

Qe2 is the refutation.

[@GhostRider-vm1su]

wow so all u have to do is move the king before castling

[@dobrilrusev2933]

And how about 5. Qe2 ?

[@IamTIIBOOZ]

Reminds me of Urusov

[@andreiskorobogatykh5832]

I'm surprised that at 9:11 after Be5 f6!? was not analyzed. Probably it's not good because white has an idea f6 d5! Bxd5 Nf3

[@mrlucasftw42]

Did you say dubious gambit!? Oh no - my rating points.

[@Rickiller_]

Wow, im so happy right now!! I startet playing this gambit about a year ago and scored great results in over 300 games on lichess ... and now a worldclass GM plays it in a top tier event like this one . Thanks for sharing Jonathan😁

In invented this Gambit years ago... I called it the Russian-Scandinavian Gambit

[@frankberger8243]

LUL someone played that opening against me today, and even though I have seen Eric comment on that game in his stream yesterday, I did not recognize this from whites point of view

[@clivethereddevil3178]

according to my Chessbase Megadatabase 2022 the move 3...d5 has been played 80 times,not 24. The first game is from 1985. Jobava has played it 5 times but only managed 1 win and 1 draw.

[@Summalogicae]

Does Chessbase Megadatabase include games from Lichess rapid & blitz?

[@clivethereddevil3178]

@@Summalogicae no

[@bennyzhang7930]

This is just the ideas from the urosov/Keidansky gambit. But you’re down a tempo because you’re black. Also because of that, after Dxd5, d4 is available for your opponent because we haven’t developed the bishop yet

[@okamisansempai557]

Soo cool

[@tatoshervashidze7186]

I mean, he didn't invent it, as BlitzStream plays it very often, but good vid!

[@pappaflammyboi5799]

Instead of defending with pawn to d4, refute with Qe2. White maintains the advantage or can hold the position.

[@morganna1]

5:03 Me when I hit my toe

[@helloagain4546]

Why are these top players avoiding (in all master games) simply taking on d5 followed by Qe2? I'm 1600 and I've yet to face another move... It seems the safest move so many players are drawn to it I guess in the attempt to just solidify the pawn and play an endgame? I feel like this move has to be covered with some counter idea, otherwise masters wouldn't touch this, no?

[@helloagain4546]

I found a nice rook sac in this line maybe that's it...? After Qe2 Bd6 Nc3 Qd6 if White goes rook hunting with Qb5+ and Qxb7 he might drop a knight and if the rook is taken potentially trap his queen... So the rook on a8 is pretty much not en prie, if he does take on a8 to save the queen white must sac another knight. So with pretty logical and fairly resistant play you might be looking at winning 2 knights for a Rook, or better ! :O
