Hello everyone! This is my long awaited opening guide to the Traxler Counter Attack, the Fried Liver Attack's kryptonite.

great content

[@ultraemmit1063]

I haven't watched this video yet, but you have the best trap tutorials, even if I already know all the lines. Thank you Volclus Edit: I wanted to mention that it is not called the Fried Liver until white sacs the knight on f7. the 4th move Ng5 is just called the Knight Attack.

[@per0faide523]

This is nice

[@maximilianruszkowski341]

Can you do a video about the John Tracy gambit? It is part of something called the alekhine defense?

[@cognaso3252]

29:15 Will you take a look at Qe7 here in the future? Interested bc ive seen that line a couple times

[@skeletonofwisdom2922]

25:09 Qxg2, you could easily fork the king and the queen with the bishop. A much better move I'm afraid.

[@Volclus]

100% true, engine prefers Qxg2+ to keep the attack rolling which white cannot properly defend, but that is also completely winning.

[@retardmagnet]

I'm afraid not...

[@skeletonofwisdom2922]

@@retardmagnet I'm blind, and was half asleep while watching. Sorry. That is a blackhole waiting to suck you in. Qxg2 is the logical move . Forking the Queen saves your rook but then you donate a bishop.

Thx👍stuck at 1100 elo rn, hope this helps

[@lollollol2003]

Won the first game i played with this trap

[@retardmagnet]

Enemy can just counter with not capturing the bishop

[@toomanyblocks8448]

It's a bit too late for the traxler, it works more at around 800

[@ary_21]

Just a suggestion , turn on board alphabets while explaining I cant immidiately spot e6 square and have to count the squares to reach e file and 6 th row from white

[@ModernDayRenaissanceMan]

F6 pawn stops all this. Every time I open with dual black knights out. I get f6 pawned.

[@johnhessom-lx1nt]

With the traxler

[@user-gw8ou6lc2t]

And then he sacrifices THE ROOOOOOOOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@user-gw8ou6lc2t]

And then he sacrifices THE KNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@viewer4283]

How if the opponent doesn't take the bishop?

[@silverback4191]
