When I was a kid, I came up on my own (meaning without having seen it before-it already existed), the Goring Gambit. Against the other kids, it was great.
Oh! And I know the Goring Gambit is not nearly so exciting as the Gambits you are playing. I just developed really quickly.
That shared games channel is pretty cool. I may have to look at that.
Fun review of advantages of isolated center pawn.
That one position looks like the Maroczy Bind. Seems like white could play e4 and c4 without playing d5.
Excellent game - you are a magnificent chess player - I cannot think of 1 reason why you are not a GM!
you nasty lol.
Lots of fun n gambits Thank you 😊
1:56 and here you get the queen sacrifice by white.
1. f4 really isn’t that bad, if you know how to deal with these kinds of traps. An argument could be made for it actually being better if you know a lot of theory, rather than just playing some d4/e4 opening because everybody says it’s ”the best”.
Lol dominating a blitz arena with gambits. It's kinda funny that people are going in with classical theory that would work fine in a tournament. And then their opponent plays a Gambit and they don't know what to do.
Always love watching these!
That was fun there William. Thanks.
This a good one. On with the gambit glasses! 😎
I saw an Alapin on the board, I thought : "wow ! Alapin, hey ?" Then it went off track prrrrreeeetty quick. Yan yan gambit, you say ? By the way, 98% accuracy is pure madness.
Love your aggressive attacking style! Keep it up🎉🔛🔝
Wow 🎉..!! Lots to learn here.!!
The GM mated himself lol.
If the white pawn on e3 takes the black pawn on f4 I believe you have check mate if you castle long ;P !
Love the enthusiasm man! ;) Keep it up !!!!
I am 1300 level and no one ever seems to blunder their queen to me 😢
Played this gambit and lost, but it was my own fault. white defended with Qd2 and I did not *remember* Graif's recommendations. Grif's sound recommendation was (I found out later) to play ..Bb4 (which I did) but then double the pawns after Nc3 (which I didn't). Sigh. Following good advice requires study and memory. While I see Graif's 2nd Budapest Gambit as being good to play, I clearly need to study this video *more*.
Did your internet cut out at the end?
Regarding position at 43:49, you had e.g. Rxb4, then Qf8+, sac the queen, followed by a7. But according to engine Rab1 was the strongest.
This takes a lot of study, understanding and practice. Must've watched it a dozen times. It's just great.
Good pacing, very valuable information
Believe it or not... there was a man, behind that bagel crumb.
Hey William! I was wondering if you have seen a gambit line in the philidor that basically looks like the goring gambit - lichess calls it the birds gambit? birds eye gambit? I've seen like 2 videos on youtube covering it but as the goring gambit master I figured I'd ask your thoughts on it. :)
man your video was awesome!
Gambit man🔥plus gambit glasses on
Thanks.
What other RUclipsr focuses solely on gambits? Great channel.
Vampire chicken is close 2nd but he does not play ultra dubious gambits that much
@@cedricreinelopez992 Oh yes he was the OG. RIP.
Me! Ahahaha
@chrislevy42069 I thoroughly enjoyed your Envy gambit analysis!
@@davidwindmiller3494 Sicilian gambit video will drop this week 😊
Good video, bad chess set in the end.
I’m still slowly getting better and doing really well at slow games but I’m relatively trash at anything faster than rapid 10 min. Any advice on getting faster Gambit Man sir?
In the same boat as you.
Agree. I only play 30 min games. I cannot even play 10 min games. I will blunder a piece.
Force yourselves to play some puzzle rush, and blitz / bullet. Try maybe some no increment as well. You will blunder a lot, but so will your opponents, and that's how we learn. Do not make this your priority, maybe dont analyse as much, these rating are not as important. It's just good training sometimes to be faster, better at board visualisation, better at spotting tactics quickly, better at converting winning positions, better at making practical decision (how and when to simplify etc) better at time scrambles etc. At the end it will probably help you in slower chess as well, at least a little. Good luck trying speedchess !!!
love that queen trap and how you steered it back into the line you was looking for. i wish I was so quick witted in such situations.
You broke the streak of Jerome, and we're punished the following game 😂
Wishful thinking is what it is..... Stockfish gives white +3.6 after move 7
Where do you submit to possibly get on this?
@@pepperwestwood forms.gle/jHE2AtVgcLfFjdP69
@@GambitMan yo nice. Thanks a lot! Gambit Man rules!
I was excited about this trap (though I play the Jobova as white) until I this simple analysis with Stockfish: .d4 d5 2.Nc3 Nf6 3 .Bf4 Nc6 4.Nb5 e5 5.dxe5 Ne4 6.Qxd5 Bf57.Qxd8+Rxd8 8.f3. Of course, I knew about the Qx d5. I have won with it numerous times. But the critical move is 8. f3. That move creates luft for the king and snuffs out black's meta-trap. White ends up with a 2.5 advantage according to Stockfish. Of course, if white does not find f3, then is in a world of trouble. Graif points this out at around the 16:52 marker in the video, and acknowledges that black is at a serious disadvantage. He also points out (correctly) that in practical play, especially at club level, f3 is *hard* to find f3! Especially in blitz. So my only objection here is that this video claims to bust this trap. It does not. I do remain a fan of these Graif videos. They are really some of the best chess videos out there. Frankly, I think he should write a book on gambits. It would be both instructive and entertaining. I would *buy* that book. I even have a name to suggest for such a book: Adventures In Gambit Land.
Did this go anywhere?
I crushed everyone who accept the busch gass gambit.. Then a 2000 rated player come. He did not accept my busch gass and i lost 5 matches simultaneously.. Plzz show some decline line..

How about naming this variation of the Budapest gambit the "Be a Pest Gambit"!
Well, I finally got to play this gambit. White declined the gambit and black got a playable game - a game I went on to win. But I missed a better move early on. [Event "Casual rapid game"] [Opening "Benko Gambit: Zaitsev Variation, Nescafe Frappe Attack"] 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 a6 3. Nc3 c5 4. d5 b5 5. cxb5 axb5 6. e4 b4 7. Nb5 { A57 Benko Gambit: Zaitsev Variation, Nescafe Frappe Attack } d6 8. Bf4 Nbd7?! { (-0.53 → 0.04) Inaccuracy. g5 was best. } Yeah, I considered ..g5 during the game, but I thought it was too risky. I was both wrong and failing to play a Benoni in the spirit it demands: play dynamically or die. Of course, this is a Benko Gambit decline, but it *felt* like a Benoni position to me.
6:47 Be4 to take the knight on c6 would result in Nxe4 so
explained, dismiss I am amiss. Qxe4, Be7 Nf3.O-O and the Q's pin loses a piece with Ne5 NxN NxN Wow just devastating.
Thanks!!!
interesting will have to stop playing wing gambit 4 this
