This is Great for higher levels! I'm 1100 ish so take it for it's worth. At this level and below I have found 3 approaches that work with varying degrees of success: 2 offensive and 1 defensive. 1. The Traxlar - Though most know about it and they simply ignore the Bishop attack and a lower rated player is then lost with the follow through. 2. The straight forward pawn blocking the Bishop followed by Knight attack. Yes, it's too defensive and it can be aggressively countered by involving the Queen and now jeopardizing our other Rook and Queen invasion. But lower rated players don't find the moves and hence this works most of the times. 3. The Blackburne Shilling Counter (and Fritz variation) goes for the win. Most lower rated players don't know about it making it much more effective. Even if they attack the Knight after its jumped the pawn attack there is a counter attack to the Bishop with a pawn (defended by the Knight) so it works one way or another. Also most lower rated players see the fried liver attack as an attempt to grab the rook not realising that the Queen involvement (after Knight takes pawn) is what makes it deadly. PS: Thanks Igor! Your channel has the most comprehensive counters to almost every trap including traps that you've yourself shown to be so effective.
► Chapters 00:00 Best counter against the Fried Liver Attack for Black 00:21 Two Knights Defense, Ulvestad Variation 00:48 1) If White plays 6.Bxb5 01:37 1.1) 9.Nf3 to prevent Qxg2 mate 05:03 1.2) 9.f3 to close the diagonal 07:30 2) If White plays 6.dxc6 09:43 2.2) White plays early Qe2 to attack e5 11:43 Puzzle of the day 12:31 3) 6.Bf1 - what Gukesh played against Carlsen 14:44 Magnus Carlsen's move
7:30 min is the Mayet's Mate, 9:30 min is the Calabrais's Mate, 12:30 min I'm not sure but it looks like the Boden Mate, and finally 17:20 min is the Anastasia's Mate !
Castling looks like a bad move to guard 1 pawn and I'm not even rated... Lmao. Your gonna need a video to explain why an aggressive player would castle, and why castling into 1 move away from checkmate to save a pawn was good. This looks more like "insert castling here" because you couldn't find a real move.

How much time did it take bro?
@@riddhiparmar6377 5 months
Igor this is the line i play as black, please take the video down so people don't learn the right response and i can continue winning, thanks!
7:30 min is the Mayet's Mate, 9:30 min is the Calabrais's Mate, 12:30 min I'm not sure but it looks like the Boden Mate, and finally 17:20 min is the Anastasia's Mate !
18:12 is the William Tell Overture.
@@KidNoah2012 Well, I think it's not 18:12, but 18:29 ! ;-)
Great, comprehensive information. I already played the b5 but never really had too continuation. This helps.
16:53 after a3 better is Qxh2+
If not doing the Rousseau gambit of course, I always do the Traxler counter attack, but after seeing this video, I would love to try this b2 move
No, this has been my favorite line for many years. Now more people are going to know about it 😢
You'll become a stronger player only if you play with and beat strong players
This is going to be one of your most viewed videos. lol the fried liver is so annoying. Thanks for the content.
Thanks Igor 😊❤
I missed the winning continuation to your puzzle, but still thanks again and keep up the great work grandmaster Igor Smirnoff!
Thanku so much bud 😊😊😊
The link to the Ulvestad Variation is not on the blog-post. Please fix-thank you.
Hey Igor! World championship recap please?
really Brilliant trick
can you show the eval bar in your vids?
You are the best bro 👊🏿
That's too kind.
@@GMIgorSmirnov It's too right bro. 👊🏿
Hey can you make a video on the steps on how to study a chess opening
chess-teacher.com/learn-chess-openings/
Bishop looking like a stepbrother to the pawns. LMAO
5:08 - Can somebody please check on Ben Finegold? I hope he's OK...
Pretty epic.
Why is the traxler not your favorite?
Nice content.
But it seems to me that you say "kin" for "king". Is that a common pronunciation ?
Nf3,Ne1,d3 please
Hi, can you make a Video on Atomic chess? Because there are no opening Videos anywhere
I usually do nf6
@dinosaurustyrannosaurus5144 you mean f3? If not, what do you play as White?
@@BrizzlerCR i mean nf6 for black nf3 for white then ne5 for white and nd4 for black to either mate or take their queen, knight, bishop and pawn
@dinosaurustyrannosaurus5144 wanna play a game? (I don't have Premium so we would need to play this via Chat or Something in that direction)
Hey you big bro
I am your fan
Gukesh won 3rd game against Ding Liren
Step Brother to theese pawns🤔
