Was tjonking the same thing. Perhaps he meant to say that, or hypothetically if the c4 Bishop were to move, then yes it would be checkmate, but I think he meant Qe2, because never moved to f1 duding that exchange. Chek it Out! Ciao!!!
@tagginos you can castle as long as the king and rook have not moved, and the king is not in check and does not move through an attacked square. It does not matter if the rook is attacked or moves through an attacked square.
white wins in the traxlor every time and he did not cover that line. after white King f1 denying the bishop. 6. Qe7 7. Nxh8 Now black must move the bishop on f2 or lose it. Nxe5 does not work after white plays Qh5. either way it all winning for white. Traxlor counter does niot work against the fried liver.
I'm currently being Traxlered against a much stronger opponent. It's hilarious to see it happen in real time. I obviously knew he had a plan but at first I was like "wtf?" but then "oh nohoooooo". My entire right side is all fucked up. I figure I have 10 moves left. Still glad I learned something new.
@@beri4138 it’s not cheating IFFFFF you already lost the game (like you aren’t trying to win anymore) and just trying to learn more about why you got clapped
Ahhh, the good old Traxler. I actually managed to replicate the original Traxler game, move by move, during a large blitz tournament. The final move, mate by pawnmove feels sooo good (like mate by castling or kingmove actually). Thanks for doing this video.
When I teach Traxler attack I always teach it from the point of view of the black pieces player. So the students can understand it better. Please, change the direction of this video, up side down. The black should be at the front, means the low side of the board. Ty.
I played my first tournament this weekend, and was able to use this not only once, but twice. Both times, it resulted in a clear victory for me. Thank you very much for making this video, Kevin.
13:00 after king move to g1 its checkmate in two move. You move your bishop to d2 where your N protect it. If they takes it with their bishop you take back with your N. If they dont, you give them checkmate with your queen on f1.
13:04 instead of castle, knight to e2 after white bishop capture e2, black bishop recapture and i cant see a way to prevent mate for black any comment?
after your variation white simply plays h2 making room for king to escape. instead try Be2 and theres no way for white to defend the f1 square. if he takes the bishop, knight recaptures with mate
@Soomanib Kamruzzaman ruclips.net/video/te4yVda5mhI/видео.html black should not castle but Be2 threatening checkmate on f1 then after BxB the NxB checkmate
at 13:02 , instead of castling we can play Knight to e2 with check . Opponent has to take with his bishop playing bishop to e2. We then recapture with our bishop playing bishop to e2. Now queen to F1 checkmate is a threat and we don't have to worry about a bishop keeping an eye on the F1 square. Also we don't loose a knight for free. Castling after wards and bringing in the rook can also work. Just a fun alternate line....truly a great video....keep it up
Really nice opening, I have to try it out. That game in the end was amazing. What does black do if white plays 5. Bxf7+ instead of Nxf7? Black can't castle, white is up a pawn and black can't use the Traxler counterattack so for me it looks like white has an advantage
Witch forced mate are you finding? Neither Bf3 or Rf3 seems to work out. Because the biskop on c1 could defend h6 against the rook after d3. And the pawn on g4 after take bishop on g4 would give white a tempo.... but perhaps the tempo dont help.. white will be forced to sac the queen after Rf3, xg4, Rf4, Qb3, Rxg4, Qf3... but with could play Rf2 instead of Qb3 and plack doesnt get time to take on g4... if so loosing the queen. Bf3 seems not to work because Rg1 defends the pawn for now... and black could bring in the rook, but it takes 2 moves to bring it to like h5.. and for me its not clear if atack works or white survives when pawn on h3 is still standing, white could still play Qb3 and Kh1 or just after Qb3, if rook goes to f file, queen can just take bishop on f3. Please explain witch forced mate you see, i cant see it.
@@prot07ype87 ok, i analyzed the wrong situation. did you change your text? because as i remember you said black missed forced mate by taking the pawn with the bishop.. but that taking dont happen on 13:09 but on 13:44.. so i analysed that situation in stead. anyways i cheated and used comp on lichess.. very complex position.. so a little fact chek with stockfish says that if Be2, white plays h3 to make a runnaway squaere for the king.. then the comp actually start repeating cheks with queen on f1 and f4.. so for me its not clear :) nice spoted move anyways, Be2 looks like a difficult test. it looks like black needs to involve the rook... but infact my comp analysis is fucked up.. because on 13:09 its white to move.. black just did rockade.. so its better to be precise on the timing too.
It's nice to see an opening that maybe isn't quite as popular. These not-so-common openings are my favorite to play online because many are unfamiliar with them.
Nice classical chess at it s best. ;Only one thing. 12.50 of the video.. "..black plays Qf5", but a better move exists that leads to forced win, Qf4. White has only 2 moves, if Kg1 then Ne2, forced is Bxe2 and the white queen in a4 drops (that is why it is so important for black to play Qf4 to the start of this variation) and the other option white has (after ..Qf4) is Ke1 that leads to worst things after the simple.. 0-0-0.
At 8:34 The knight can also come to f3 square,checking the king,if queen takes knight then black queen can take white queen.There are some moves aswell after the check,but Wanted share This.
13:04 What if knight e2 check, white bishope takes e2, black bishope takes e2, then whatever white does, blavk queen f1 checkmate or white will lose the queen. Did I miss something ?
Picked out a random video by you this morning and boy did a great one come up! Make a million more videos please!! I love them all. Live games is what I want most.
@xlzyfox black would not be able to take because the king would also be in check by the bishop on c4. Its a double check so black cannot block or capture, only move. black would be forced to move and would only have one space to move to.
First, no need for all caps. Second, who are you to give orders? If you understand the basics of the game of chess, you will be able to understand the concepts from either perspective. You don't like it, make your own video.
First tell him not to use all caps then tell him that people shouldn't tell each other what to do. Yea, makes sense. No contradiction there. Secondly, your logic is fallacious. Knowing the basics of chess doesn't mean it won't be easier to follow with the right board orientation. It will be easier for someone to follow whether they are beginner or advanced with the right orientation. Lastly, although people seem to be forgetting it these days there is this thing called 'free speech'. The price for criticizing is not making a video. You get to criticize without doing that. If you don't like it then instead of being an internet asshole why don't go to Syria or some other dictatorship where free speech is not allowed.
Locutus D'Borg is correct. He's reminding us that in "computerese" all caps is a form of screaming. I don't think Dirk was trying to scream, but coupled with the exclamation mark, the use of the word "should" as if this is a moral obligation, and the use of a command mode of language, the comment does seem a bit overbearing. I think D'Borg is justified in simply reminding us of internet etiquette.
At 3:28, why not Ke3 instead of Kg1? There are no more checks (at least in the short term) and white will have time to capture the rook on h8 when the queen moves to Qh4.
Not sure if this has been pointed out yet, but at 13:05 it seems that Be2 leads to mate in 1 or 2 moves (Bxe2, Nxe2++ or white ignores the bishop and Qf1++)
Wow, I meant Be2, yes (idk where I got b4). It actually doesn't matter if white ignores it or not; if the bishop captures, the knight will recapture for checkmate. The only way for white to save himself is by sacrificing the queen (Qd4 or Qxd7+).
And anyway, I didn't say there was anything wrong with the chess content. This is constructive criticism. If I were him, I'd be glad someone brought it to his attention.
@chanabnagar It's a valid line, and probably the safest for White for avoiding crazy complications. 5. Bxf7 Ke7 6. Bd5 Rf8 and so on. Black is down a pawn and can't castle, but Black has a pawn structure in the centre that is solid for a while, and the potential to overwhelm White's kingside with so many pieces aimed that way.
Its like all we do is regurgitate old openings, chess players are more like libraries or computers now. Not even using our own intelligence to do something new. Intellectual chess *sigh*
@@jacobzammit4779 i mean it by qh4, or you can practice it yourself, the thing about some video like this is the board has a lot of chance to go off far from the tutorial that's why GM always practicing what is the best possible move they can do
I think it is a way of emphasizing that the involvement is active. It is a natural example of the way all languages contain degrees of redundancy which in fact serve a purpose. Otherwise we would be Grammar Robots!
You have no right to criticize someone for doing something that you are much worse at. You fault him for two redundant letters when your whole use of the phrase "in the game" was redundant. What else would the pieces be involved in, the war in Syria? Idiot.
I 've been using this opening for white and never knew this counter attack. I also didn't realize black could castle with the knight on F7...mind blown
at 12:16. If he takes the knight on D4 with his pawn, be certain to take back with the bishop. Otherwise all your pressure has just been deflated and your 8 points down in material with nothing to show for it
13:00 After WK moves to g1 isnt it better to advance the knight ? Knight to e2, only move is bxe2 then another bxe2 and white has no moves to stop a checkmate but qd1. Then bxd1 and its an easy game for black?
aint 13:00 a mate in 3? like knight goes to e2 check then bshop captures e2 knight then bshop captures bshop to e2 and then even if white tries to sacrifice queen it won't have a defender so queen to f1 is checkmate right?
@MrMuggyMuggy If white plays Bxf7+, black is prepared to play Ke7, and use the f-file for a king attack. This is one of white's best options. Played correctly, white can keep a small advantage
at 13:01 the black bishop can move to e2 making a checkmate in 1 move with queen, if whites bishop on c4 takes, then knight on d4 can retake with a checkmate in one.
I don't get why at 15:40 Black wouldn't just Kxf2. If Nxe2, then Ke3 places attack on both knights. Black would then play h4 right? (genuinely unsure) If so, then White can bring Queen f1 and start attacking.
One line not mentioned here for white is, that after black brings the bishop to c5, that white can simply castle kingside putting his rook on f1 defending f2 and once again forcing black to deal with the possibility of knight to f7.
Hey, there is actually a really efficient counter attack, but I don't know the name of it, so do you guys know? It goes like this: 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 Nf6 4. Ng5 d5 5. exd5 Nd4 6. d6 Qxd6 7. Nxf7 Qc6 8. Nxh8 Qxg2 9. Rf1 Qe4+ 10. Be2 Nf3# There are other variations, but I suggest you try it out. To everybody reading this and who has tried this out (just grab a chess simulation programm and play it so you can see) and who wants them to see thumbs up!
At 12:29, after black plays Qh4+, what is stopping white from playing g3? This attacks the queen, gaining a tempo for white. Is there some sort of fancy tactic that I am missing??
@tagginos Its a valid question! The rule is that when a king goes to castle, he cannot pass through check. Since the knight is not attacking either f8 or g8, the king is allowed to castle.
There is a mistake in the analysis. At 13:52 Position is: 2k2r1N/pppn2pp/8/3Pp3/Q1BP4/7K/PP1P1qP1/RNB4R b - - 0 18 The best move is Rf4 with a FORCED MATE IN 8!!! Which is executed as follows, where white sacs most of the pieces to prolong the game. 18... Rf4 19. g3 Rf3 20. Rg1 Qxg1 21. Qxd7+ Kxd7 22. Bb5+ Kc8 23. Bd7+ Kxd7 24. Kh4 Qxg3+ 25. Kh5 Rf5#
@shinyninetales999 If white pushes g3, black can simply move his queen to f6 and this is the exact same position as if he had gone to f6 in the first place, except white now has a weakness added to the kingside. Also after the g3 Qf6 position, black can (probably not immediately but later on in the game) push the d pawn and then bring the bishop to h3.
but at 10:00 if instead of taking the rock with night, whites decide to bring queen in f3, then the counter attack seems blocked? :/ maybe not but I can't see a very nice move for black after that
White has two ways to fight for a win in this game. The first is 5.Kxf2 Nxe4+ 6.Ke3! If instead 6.Kg1, black can force a draw, but with 6.Ke3 white can play for a win. Another unclear line occurs after 5.Kf1 Qe7 6.Nxh8 d5 7.exd5 Nd4 8.h3! These lines take a lot of effort and precision from both players, and with best play white only keeps a slight edge after defending the entire game.
Black misses a mate in 3 moves at 13:07 when he castled. Instead of castling: 1. ...Ne2+ 2. Bxe2 Bxe2 3. Qd1 Bxe1 then mate in about 4 more moves max. If white doesn't move the queen to d2, then black Qf1#.
I don't know much about this stuff, but I think you cant castle if the King is in check. There is no such thing as having a rook in check. More like the black rook is "under attack" vs. being "in check," hope that clears it up.
I just looked it up. You can still castle even if the rook is under attack. The king can't cross a checked square, and obviously can't castle into check.
@Sylence777 I have a problem because almost everyone pulls the king out and you have to take out the queen or else it dies and then white develops and you're in a terrible position and with material disadvantage.
2:50- king takes bishop

You mean Qh4? Queen cant go to f4. If you did mean Qh4, what do you answer after g3?
@@jacobzammit4779 i mean it by qh4, or you can practice it yourself, the thing about some video like this is the board has a lot of chance to go off far from the tutorial that's why GM always practicing what is the best possible move they can do
Ok thanks for replying
Why do you keep saying "getting the pieces involved into the game", it's "getting the pieces involved in the game"
I think it is a way of emphasizing that the involvement is active. It is a natural example of the way all languages contain degrees of redundancy which in fact serve a purpose. Otherwise we would be Grammar Robots!
quagapp He is Canadian and that is one of their idioms. I'm into dialects (*_*)
You have no right to criticize someone for doing something that you are much worse at. You fault him for two redundant letters when your whole use of the phrase "in the game" was redundant. What else would the pieces be involved in, the war in Syria? Idiot.
Oh mY :) ...Stahp he's dead
I 've been using this opening for white and never knew this counter attack. I also didn't realize black could castle with the knight on F7...mind blown
at 12:16. If he takes the knight on D4 with his pawn, be certain to take back with the bishop. Otherwise all your pressure has just been deflated and your 8 points down in material with nothing to show for it
13:00 After WK moves to g1 isnt it better to advance the knight ? Knight to e2, only move is bxe2 then another bxe2 and white has no moves to stop a checkmate but qd1. Then bxd1 and its an easy game for black?
Hi Kevin. 5:18 You suggest black can castle if he wants to. but what if .... 0-0, Nh6++ Kh8, Qxf8+# ?
Goratchthemule if black castles, and white plays Nh6, then black will take with the g pawn and now whites queen is pinned by the rook of black on f8
Seeron McFat If black castle the king is on G8, Its a double check. White bishop on c4 prevent black to capture the Knight
aint 13:00 a mate in 3? like knight goes to e2 check then bshop captures e2 knight then bshop captures bshop to e2 and then even if white tries to sacrifice queen it won't have a defender so queen to f1 is checkmate right?
@MrMuggyMuggy If white plays Bxf7+, black is prepared to play Ke7, and use the f-file for a king attack. This is one of white's best options. Played correctly, white can keep a small advantage
13:32 if Qf1+ can't white retake with Bxf1? Then after white plays Be2 h3?
at 1:16 Can't white move the pawn to b4 and more or less transition to an Evans Gambit?
at 12:16, isn't b5 devastating with the pawn fork? or does this lose too much time?
Why wouldn't black take the queen with Nf3 at 5:48? And why would white move g3 instead of defending against losing the queen?
at 13:01 the black bishop can move to e2 making a checkmate in 1 move with queen, if whites bishop on c4 takes, then knight on d4 can retake with a checkmate in one.
I don't get why at 15:40 Black wouldn't just Kxf2. If Nxe2, then Ke3 places attack on both knights. Black would then play h4 right? (genuinely unsure) If so, then White can bring Queen f1 and start attacking.
One line not mentioned here for white is, that after black brings the bishop to c5, that white can simply castle kingside putting his rook on f1 defending f2 and once again forcing black to deal with the possibility of knight to f7.
3:25 why can’t king go to f3? Seems like a better move than g1
Queen to f6 check, followed my either being up a queen if he blocks with white queen or checkmate
Jerome Magpantay yea but the king can also take the knight on e4
at 13:16, why doesn't the knight go to and the queen will go away, then eat the bishop and the knight will go to e2#
nah nah nah wrong cause you forgot what black would move on the 4th move.
William Wu Congratz, you just reached the #Foreveralone status
13:02 After Kg1, Ne2 would be a good option too. White bisshop has to take and you recapture with black bisshop, threatening mate.
At 10:14 shouldn't we sacrifice our knight and do bg4 to attack the queen?
18:44 How about Rb8+ Nb7 Rxb7+ and after Ka5 comes Rb5# and after Ka3 comes Ra7+ Ba4 and Rxa4#
Hey, there is actually a really efficient counter attack, but I don't know the name of it, so do you guys know? It goes like this:
1. e4 e5
2. Nf3 Nc6
3. Bc4 Nf6
4. Ng5 d5
5. exd5 Nd4
6. d6 Qxd6
7. Nxf7 Qc6
8. Nxh8 Qxg2
9. Rf1 Qe4+
10. Be2 Nf3#
There are other variations, but I suggest you try it out. To everybody reading this and who has tried this out (just grab a chess simulation programm and play it so you can see) and who wants them to see thumbs up!
At 12:29, after black plays Qh4+, what is stopping white from playing g3? This attacks the queen, gaining a tempo for white. Is there some sort of fancy tactic that I am missing??
no tempo, Qf6 and the king is still on the run... not for too long I may add.
@tagginos Its a valid question! The rule is that when a king goes to castle, he cannot pass through check. Since the knight is not attacking either f8 or g8, the king is allowed to castle.
There is a mistake in the analysis. At 13:52
Position is: 2k2r1N/pppn2pp/8/3Pp3/Q1BP4/7K/PP1P1qP1/RNB4R b - - 0 18
The best move is Rf4 with a FORCED MATE IN 8!!!
Which is executed as follows, where white sacs most of the pieces to prolong the game.
18... Rf4 19. g3 Rf3 20. Rg1 Qxg1 21. Qxd7+ Kxd7 22. Bb5+ Kc8 23. Bd7+ Kxd7 24.
Kh4 Qxg3+ 25. Kh5 Rf5#
13:35 How the queen to f1 is checkmate there is a white bishop at c4.???
@shinyninetales999 If white pushes g3, black can simply move his queen to f6 and this is the exact same position as if he had gone to f6 in the first place, except white now has a weakness added to the kingside. Also after the g3 Qf6 position, black can (probably not immediately but later on in the game) push the d pawn and then bring the bishop to h3.
but at 10:00 if instead of taking the rock with night, whites decide to bring queen in f3, then the counter attack seems blocked? :/
maybe not but I can't see a very nice move for black after that
10:55 d6 instead of c3 and it's lights out for black.
gorgonzolaaa then queen takes on d6 and white wasted a piece and a move by helping black develop the queen
14:29 what if took with the support of the bishop attacks the queen? The queen will die isn't it?
At 11:40 why can't the black castle on the queenside?
White has two ways to fight for a win in this game. The first is 5.Kxf2 Nxe4+ 6.Ke3!
If instead 6.Kg1, black can force a draw, but with 6.Ke3 white can play for a win.
Another unclear line occurs after 5.Kf1 Qe7 6.Nxh8 d5 7.exd5 Nd4 8.h3! These lines take a lot of effort and precision from both players, and with best play white only keeps a slight edge after defending the entire game.
12:48 won't Nf5+ followed by Nc5+ result in white losing their queen?
When the opponent wants to play traxler but you just take f7 with the bishop with check
What about bxf7+ instead of nxf7 😮
Black misses a mate in 3 moves at 13:07 when he castled. Instead of castling: 1. ...Ne2+ 2. Bxe2 Bxe2 3. Qd1 Bxe1 then mate in about 4 more moves max. If white doesn't move the queen to d2, then black Qf1#.
at 7:50 he shows black castling, but black's rook is in check by the knight on F7, so I don't think it's a legal move, is it?
I don't know much about this stuff, but I think you cant castle if the King is in check. There is no such thing as having a rook in check. More like the black rook is "under attack" vs. being "in check," hope that clears it up.
I just looked it up. You can still castle even if the rook is under attack. The king can't cross a checked square, and obviously can't castle into check.
3:08 I‘m a beginner, but what is the best move when white moves his king to E3
Queen H4, check out GM Naroditsky latest lesson on youtube with MoistCritikal, he explains this variation there around the 30 min mark
At 13:33 the queen can go to the last rank because of whites lite square bishops
What if the black move in 10:09 is Nxe4?
At 13:16 why didn't queen (white ) take to a7 ??
13:05 Black Knight e2 is check mage right?
Can’t u play be2 at 13:11 instead of castling? Checkmate would be unstoppable
@Sylence777
I have a problem because almost everyone pulls the king out and you have to take out the queen or else it dies and then white develops and you're in a terrible position and with material disadvantage.
@10:27
Doesn't black's bishop to g4 win the white queen?
10:28 What if that pawn pushed up by one square?
