Do you play 1.e4 as White? If yes, then you should be aware of these opening variations. In this video lesson, GM Igor Smirnov shares with you some interesting traps for White after 1.e4.
In particular, you will learn how to counter the Petrov’s Defense, which happens after 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nf6 and the Stafford Gambit, which happens after 3.Nxe5 Nc6. These are extremely dangerous openings if you are not familiar with them.
GM Igor Smirnov shows you a really cool variation that will help you trick those tricksters. 😊 This variation has a lot of traps and gives you a quick, winning attack against Black.

Yo.First person to watch here
epic!
i really like your video sir. keep working 🤗
This is very sharp opening. There is a trap and reasonable position!👍👍
Nice chess lesson by this GM
More openings in my arsenal.
Wouldnt it be much better for black to take with the knight on f2 instead of the bishop? Or am I missing something here? Pls help

More power to you on this year 2023, Happy New Year and God bless!!
Happy New Year guys, amaizing traps…keep it up
You need a Rival's match against Eric Rosen! Make that happen!!!
I don't know why, but this video, unlike the others from this channell, is not allowing automatic subtitles. A lot of people like me need them to fully understand the content. I think this is a choice to the uploader. Please allow them, thanks!
