- Chess Openings: Learn to Play the Trompowsky Attack!
There are many good chess openings for black against d4 including the King's Indian Defense, Bogo-Indian Defense, Benko Gambit, Benoni Defense, Nimzo-Indian Defense, Grunfeld Defense, and Black Knights' Tango. All of these are top tier chess openings for black after playing 1. ...Nf6. With all of these strong chess opening systems for black, the chess player may be intimidated by all of these potential lines and variations. In particular, the chess opening theory of the King's Indian Defense is very dangerous and complex. However, we can stop the King's Indian Defense and all of these other systems with a single move - by playing the Trompowsky Attack. The Trompowsky Attack is a top tier chess opening for white that can help you win games fast and beat higher rated players. The Trompowsky Attack is also good for beginner chess players who simply want to focus on chess opening strategy, chess opening principles, chess opening ideas, chess opening moves, and chess opening tricks as opposed to studying tons of opening theory. The Trompowsky is very easy to learn, and in this video we give a full repertoire including the Poisoned Pawn Variation, Big Center Variation, and response against the Classical Defense. The Trompowsky Attack is is rich in chess strategy, lines, variations, moves, ideas, principles, traps, tricks, checkmate patterns, and theory. The Trompowsky Attack is a good chess opening for beginners, and a good chess opening for intermediate players. In this beginners chess lesson, we hope to show that by playing this chess opening, you can improve at chess quickly and use chess opening tricks and traps to use games fast. The King's Indian Defense, Grunfeld Defense, Black Knights' Tango, Bogo-Indian Defense, Benoni Defense, Nimzo-Indian Defense, and Benko Gambit are all great chess openings for black against d4 but we stop them all with the Trompowsky Attack! Whether you have been playing the Trompowsky for years, or are simply a chess beginner checking it out, we hope you enjoy learning these lines and variations of the Trompowsky Attack!

this is an amazing video
I love your content so much
keep up the awesome work
ima incorporate this into my repertoire
I never knew that d4 could be attacking and a 1.e4 player
Thank you so much for opening my eyes
Have an amazing 2022 Solomon and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!
Which opening u play with 1.e4 for attacking game
Hey Bob, thanks for the kind words! It's been fun making these videos and it's super cool to hear when people are enjoying them. I was surprised as well to see how aggressive the Trompowsky is. I am an 1. e4 player as well and many 1. d4 players get a wrap for being slow and positional but if white wants to get an aggressive and attacking game they definitely can. Happy hew years to you as well my friend!
Here's a few potential openings to get you started - all of these are super fun.

@@sakthivelb9074 i play the vienna gambit/ vienna system
@@TheChessGiant Thanks Soloman, appreciate it!:)
This was the favorite opening as white of the Russian blitz master Genrikh Chepukaitis, who was feared by GMs... at blitz, anyway. He could beat the best attackers in the world, Tal, Nezhmetinov, Korchnoi.
Then-World Champion Petrosian's wife forbade him to play Chip, as he was known, as he might very well lose and it would be embarrassing.
As black, Chepukaitis often played the Hippo.
He liked to bang out superfast openings that he knew thoroughly to get to the middlegame. He thought the Tromp was as tactically rich as the Kings Gambit!
I'm glad to be reminded of this valuable opening. Thanks, Solomon! Looking forward to your Raptor class.
Hey Alan! Wow, I had heard of Genrikh Chepukaitis but didn't know all of that! Super cool to hear about him picking for openings like the Hippo and Trompowsky which can guarantee you a good middlegame position. Thanks as always for the chess history lesson!
The overall design and aesthetic of this channel is really pleasing and underrated.
Thumbnails, overlay, etc. It'sall the same style and very good.
Ya shoutout to my guy Ian Rohan for that! He’s my childhood best friend and he’s great at what he does. Here’s his website just in case you wanted to checkout some of the other cool stuff he does.

Between you and Eric Rosen, this really is the golden age for ASMR chess lessons & content. Thanks for teaching me some great openings before I fall asleep!
Thanks brotha! Glad you enjoyed it - the Trompowsky is super fun
If you are looking for chess related ASMR, Susan Polgar videos also do the trick.
@@TeeGar Niiice. I actually got to play against her once in a simul. It was pretty cool. I had a winning position at one point but got nervous and didn't get the dub.
Wow! I'd been messing with the Trompowski for years. Watched your video recently. Played a game on LiChess today and after 2 moves in a Modern Defense, I wound up on the white side of a Tromp. It went down a line that your video had covered perfectly: 1.d4 g6 2.Bg5!? Nf6 3.Bxf6 exf6 4.e3 Bg7 5.h4 h5 6.Ne2 O-O 7.g4 hxg4 8.h5 g5? 9.h6 Bh8 10.Ng3 Kh7? 11.Bd3+
He resigned here after only 10 moves. Interestingly, Stockfish indicates his resignation wasn't premature:
( [Stockfish 16] 92:M9 11.Bd3+ f5 12.Bxf5+ Kg8 13.h7+ Kg7 14.Nh5+ Kh6 15.Qxg4 Be5 16.Nf6+ Bh2 17.Rxh2+ Kg7 18.Qxg5+ Kh8 19.Qg8+ Rxg8 20.hxg8=Q# ) Awesome content Solomon!
Hey! Firstly, I'm glad you liked the video and got some ideas from it! The Trompowsky Attack is an awesome chess opening for white. And CONGRATS on the nice game with a thorough finish. Keep it up!
Very good video I liked that you covered g6 as many kings indian player play g6 and i didn't know what to do. Good video thanks
Hey Shlok, glad you found it helpful! It's hard because following Bg5 and Bxf6 there is no King's Indian Attack. However, black still does have some good lines and options.
Could you also add
timestamps in video sometimes for example I just want to watch the c5 line but with no timestamps it's had to navigate
Hey Shlok, I read this when you first posted it, sorry it took so long to respond! On my recent videos I've been trying to put in more timestamps. I will also continue to update these older ones so they are easier to navigate. Thanks for letting me know!
Did you throw in Bob Marley lyrics at 12 :41 ? 😄 Perhaps call it the "three little birds" opening....
I did, gotta mix it up sometimes 😂
This is a good attack. Thanks for all the videos!
Yessir! And of course!!
Why don't you cover the edge variation of the trompousky i have not seen many people talk about it.
Hey Shlok! Great idea, I was thinking about making it but was probably not going to since I hadn't got any requests and there's not really much on it on RUclips. But I will now, and just added it to my list. Thanks!
Awesome coverage of the Trompowsky - many thanks! Was curious how you felt about the Raptor variation… look forward to checking out its separate video too!
Hey Mike! Ya that's a super fun variation, full video on it premieres in 12 hours here is the link. Happy new years my friend.

@@TheChessGiant Thanks! Happy new year to you too!
@@mikethomas6566 Thanks Mike!
This is exactly why I play the old benoni or open with g6.
I can't even blame you Josh! The Old Benoni has been my top response for probably the last year or so.
@@TheChessGiant I don't even win with it most of the time but every game is fun
Best opening videos and it's not even close. Thank you so much and keep up the great work!
Thanks a ton for that! Glad you're enjoying them. Also nice choice with the Trompowsky Attack, keep it up!!
Thanks Rudell,you are really doing great work,just pray blessings for you ,hope we meet one day one time
Blessings to you too my friend. Happy new years and God bless!
Excellent video, i was waiting for this opening. and the variations. I wish you ,Solomon, an Happy New yers 2022 !!! Greeting from France ^^
Hey Lionel! Glad you enjoyed the video. Sorry it took me so long to put out! Wishing you a great 2022 and greetings as always from California!
Thanks so much for this
You got it J Dub! Anytime
I play c5 against the Tromp. When the bishop typically takes my knight, I actually capture with the e pawn. Computer likes my position.
Nice! That's a good way to counterattack it for sure!
Regarding d4 Nf6 Bg5 d5: black avoids an isolated pawn by playing c6 before developing his bishop to d6, thus we have 3. Bxf6 exf6, e3 c6, c4 dxc, Bxc4 Bd6. Black's bishop is very strong at d6, and the doubled f pawns are not really an issue, as it will advance to f5 and allow the queen knight to come to f6 via Nbd7. Black can use his kingside pawns to advance toward white's castled king. I realize you cant cover every line in a video, but I'm just pointing out that c6 before Bd6 eliminates the issue of an isolated pawn that you mentioned.
Thanks for these great thoughts! The video (as you said) can't cover everything, and comments like this can help players fill in the gaps better.
Isn't the Trumpowski attack where you don't exchange the bishop for knight the Torre attack?
Hey Adrian! Great question! So technically the Torre Attack happens the moment you play Bg5. From there, it is up to you whether you want to take that knight off the board or continue with keeping the bishop pair in action. Hope this helps!
Great video! Thanks so much, by someone of Tromponsky country: Brazil!
What's up Eduardo! That is super cool to hear, greetings from California!
Thanks for another great video!
No problem! Thanks for watching!
a tricky variation mr solomon
Very! Ya it's a lot of fun for white, with playable positions that you will be more comfortable with than your opponent because most of the time black won't have much prep for the Trompowsky compared to the (probably) hundreds of hours they've spent preparing for a move like 2. c4
Thanks for the video 😄😄
Of course Sahil!
Good video. Love the trompowsky. 👌🏻
Thanks Jeremaj! I love it as well, happy new years!
As a Kings Indian player I find it infuriating when white plays the Trompowsky, which is the reaction I wanted when I was a d4 player who played the Trompowsky. As I expected, you showed some variations I've never seen before, (thank you for that) but it feels like you left out some things. White surely can't get a winning or superior position in every variation, can he? What would YOU play as black against the Trompowsky?
Hey Dennis! Ya so the lines I think are solid for black are when black just plays 2. ...d5, ready to take on f6 with the e-pawn. If white doesn't capture then black can just keep on developing. There were some variations around the 5 minute to 7 minute point which gives white a comfortable game but is 0.00 or barely better for white according to computer. Playing 2. ...Ne4 followed by something like d5 is a good option. And, even that line I showed at the end in which we potentially give up our b2 pawn and c3 pawn is technically better for black - they can just lose very quickly if they don't know what they're doing. Hope this helps!
Tysm for this
You got it somebody!
Loved the video, but I have to ask, what would’ve happened if in 20:01 the Queen took the f2 pawn instead of playing a6?
Glad you enjoyed it brotha! Ya so Qxf2 gives white a +3.4 advantage as we play Rdf1 which forces that queen to g2 and we then continue with h4 and the queen is unable to move... there is no way to immediately trap it but it can get trapped very quickly if black is not careful. I mean even if black takes with gxh4 we can play Qf4 (threatening to play Qxf7) followed by Rfg1 and you have yourself a queen. Hope this helps! Happy new years!
Thank you, happy new year for you too (even if we are already 3 weeks into it)
Is your video enought to learn how to play vaganian gambit in normal game?
Like vs 1800
I haven't heard of the Vaganian Gambit, but I just looked it up and it looks fascinating. I will have to add this to the list of chess opening videos I want to make!
I have been playing an opening for years which you have 0 videos on... Can you guess it? It has similarities to the following openings which you do have videos about: the Trompowsky, the Stonewall, the Colle (Koltanowski), the London System. Have you guessed it yet? Oh yeah, the TTA (Terrible Torre Attack)! Is it often overlooked? Sure, but its better than its reputation I promise you... and you have covered worse openings... much worse (so it wasnt named after an animal like the Crab but thats not my fault!) All I ask is one video... I have decent success with it, even if it doesnt transpose into one of the above-mentioned opening. My old chess teacher (Alfred Carlin, god rest his soul) once beat a GM with it (Christiansen) and he was 'just' a NM so it cant be all bad! One video, thats all I ask... One video. Thanks!
I hear you! I will add it to the list of chess openings I want to make. Thanks for putting this on my radar!
