That's 3 moves later
Watched this video, played a short game, then another with black pieces and... opponent goes for Italian game! Heart rate goes up, opponent moves Ng5 and GOES FOR FRIED LIVER! Set up Traxler with Bc5, opponent goes Nf7, it's on! Hit Bf2+, Kf2. This is it! Don't mess up! Anxiety, glory, chaos! Then what? Checkmate with black pieces on 10 moves! Thank you!
FIRST GAME I PLAY I run into fried liver and I SMOKED HIM with Kf2. I had to teach social studies less than 5 minutes later and I was almost out of breath from 12ish moves of chess. Beautiful.
Ha! I just commented! Just won in ten as well. I bet you I did the same combo! It was such a good feeling
just came here to say the same thing. fried liver players dont really know this, at least the ones at my rating
That was probably me you were playing 😭😭
Got the same, but in 11 moves since I needed one extra pawn :D
I remember seeing a friend in my highschool chess club show me a move sequence where a bishop sacrifice lead to the enemy king being pried out, and hounded to checkmate. Now I know what it was! It must have been the Traxler defense that I saw those many years ago.
Also sounds like a Greek gift you're describing
Defence? Bro, have some manners
@Lt. JoeAnimatez you edited your comment and it's still wrong
@Lt. JoeAnimatez it's ok
Yes. You have to use the greek gift with queen and knight coming in. This is the same with the traxler.
I literally just played a match and I got Traxlered for the first time ever... Levy, you have a massive influence😂😂
u are the fried livering noob
Same tbh
Once i saw a person play Fried liver against me (i baited him/her into it), i used this one and checkmate'd. Long live the 1k :D
My opponent didn't played fried liver but somehow I ended up in a traxlered position and he got checkmated
Got traxlered first time today, but they blundered move 7 and let me take too much to recover.
levy's commentary is like he is teaching us how to battle in a war

I'm playing in my school's chess tournament. My next opponent is rather fond of the Fried Liver, so I'm glad I found this video.
Hope you play well!

You said that you’re “shocked” at how long some of us watch your videos. Bro, i have to watch them multiple times just to even begin to grasp the content; much less memorize the moves. Great stuff man. So glad I found your channel.
Agreed; his videos are great!

@@scoffcat7062 I got a guy playing that. Play Qh4+. If he moves the king to f1, Qf2#. Ke2 is also Qf2+, Kd3 and Qd4+, ke2 and d5 (to activate the bishop). then it is mate in like 2 or 3 moves. whites best move after Qh4+ is g3. Take with the Knight, if he takes back you have a free rook with check. play that out right and you will be up material, or even mate him. I didn't play out all scenarios, but unless you blunder big you will be up material. I made 2 mistakes and still ended up with more material and won the game. And I am pretty bad at chess, there is probably a way better way to win in that situation.
let’s be honest.. this isn’t your first time watching this video you know you forgot this
I concede that fact
I watch this before every chess tournament it’s a tradition now

@ryan7351 ryan7351 how?
Wow he featured me in a Video
@ryan7351 ryan7351 I think he's saying that the one that is playing is a noob at playing the fried liver......
How come I was just about to comment that!
I just want to say that this video made me memorize about 20-25 moves of theory into three different traxler variations. I love it whenever I get to play it because I usually always win.
If you remembered the 26 moves of engine theory, forget the last 24. Qe7 is better than Qc5. If not then you’re all good.
Thank you so much for this video! I've watched it several times and today I ended up using the Traxler w/some of the ideas you present here, and I got a 12 move smothered checkmate! So excited, saving the game for sure! Thanks man!
that's sheer beauty, man, congrats!
Levy just taught us how to do the fried liver, and now he makes a video on how to absolutely demolish and embaress anyone using it
He teaches us that after black plays Bd5 it's very dangerous to actually play the Fried Liver, and also that instead of Nxf7 you should play Bxf7+ in that case.
Played this against someone and he got mad at me for “not playing real chess” XD
Haha.
lol said someone who tried to cheese with fried liver himself :>
🤣🤣🤣
@John Napier I am confused. Read your comment, called my friend over to play chess, beat his brains out, but got a beating from my mother for beating him.
Was his nickname Greta?
Did he say: "How dare you!?!???"
Hello, I'm 1100 rated and finally got to try this one out in a real game! I scored a mate in 10! Thank you for all the amazing content!
Man I am 2200 on lichess and the only thing I play against fried liver is traxler nothing else and win rate is like 85-90 %

I must try this!
The amount of times this counterattack has saved me is astronomical. I rejoice every time someone throws a fried liver attack at me, because my win rate against it is like 95%

One of the best vids I've seen for my level. I'll have to watch it a few times to assimilate though. Thanks!
Been studying this counter-attack as a 1100 player, because I've seen the fried liver a few times and it's been annoying to deal with while developing how I want to, and after learning it, I finally got someone to fall for it and it felt ooooh so good. The moment he realized his queen was completely trapped and those 2 full minutes in Blitz where I just get to sit back and sip my drink as I watch his mental state crumble silently... I would say this video should have more views and likes, but I don't want this 1100s to catch on so I can get a nice free win every once in a while.
Just did this today, I'm not exaggerating when I say it's one of the best feelings ever
Just smashed a guy from India with it it is so great!

Hi Levy!! I am watching this video after years cause one friend is beginning to play online and people play him tricks he can't believe exist so I sent him this video... so good to be able to watch it now that I know more chess than the first time I saw it, I was just starting. A whole new generation of people will keep enjoying both your new and old videos!! Congrats about everything!!
I love this particular video of levy,
I lost so many time against fried liver but no I f them up and its feels great... Thank you levy really
Levy I come from the NL community and while his incredible charisma makes watching chess fun, your emphasis on deep dives and giving your viewers the tools to learn and improve makes LEARNING chess fun. And I think that is an incredible achievement.
Greetings Allen, welcome to our humble community andwehipe u have a nice stay here. Beware of twich chat tho, they get annoying sometimes.

@@boriskogan7903 So true. This video has so many instructive moments that go beyond the Traxler. Every line is worth memorizing and understanding.

Hey, you got the win at least!
🤣 😂
At least you got the win. I'm around 1000 and got my first Traxler today. Man, it was nerve wrecking because I didn't feel confident about NOT forgetting any steps.
18 moves for a win is amazing! Now next time you’ll know how to play to beat your opponent even quicker and get the opportunity to crush even more!
Awesome, instructive video. Thanks mate.
Love this video , that was really fun !
We want more dominating chess content like this
@@ricksanchez2427 the fried liver attack and this video is very dominating in games , that's why :D
This stuff is for absolute beginners and i highly doubt you will ever see this on the board if you are above 800elo because everyone knows about it. It's like him explaining the schoolar's mate. Your "dominating chess content" is actullay noob traps...
@@johnMcKartney Yeah , but sometimes my opponents play after I take out my knight in second move , they defend their e5 pawn with another pawn

I'm 1400 on chess com but never really studied it. Sometimes face the fried liver but usually find solid response on my own.
People above me probably know these things by hearth and don't even have to think about defense so yeah.
Ben Finegold somewhere: "Traxler countergambit, named after Grandmaster Countergambit." (enthusiastically nods head)
....terrible....(shakes head)
Ben has a lovely long video on the Fegatello which does cover, and recommend, ...Bc5 setting up the Traxler
I absolutely love using this defense. Thank you so much for your videos, I'm still a noob at chess but thanks to your teachings, I have won many matches and am improving every day.
Amazing video! I can´t wait to play this!
I remember in old theory books it was stated : ' This leads to irrational positions'. Says it all!
Been playing this for months now...it's by far my favorite opening lol. Sometimes I pretend to think for a while to make it seem like I blundered lol.
The art of war :D
Levy I am pretty sure everyone here is super appreciative at having a master such as yourself teach them how to play I for one would watch much longer videos as you are brilliant at explaining what's going on. I am pretty sure I am not the only one that wishes just to say thank you for doing this.
Check out his courses Gaz
Its amazing to see so much content in less than 20 min video. Even better it so exciting to watch, love your training videos
I feel myself blessed that i found Levy.
Same, agreed
White: I have a fork on your queen and rook
Black: *I like those odds*
Awesome video. Thank you
Great video,
Glad I found your channel
as someone who has played the traxler for years and followed the theory, this is a very good video, trust me.
Me: *watches the whole video*
Also Me: Hah pretty good, yeah I'm never gonna play this.
Watched the entire thing. very instructuve. Thank you
Thank you so much for the video, it’s saved me so many games
Love you videos this one should have a second title “How to eat fried liver”
is there not a movie called how to eat fried worms?
literally the most entertaining educational chess video ive seen, awesome job!
Thank you so much!!!
Nice video. Yes, it is always worth to keep watching them.
Hey Levy I've played Chess since I was a kid and have found your channel and love watching your content, I love the long videos and love your personality. In my Chess experience I've always beaten everyone I've played against but I never knew about things like the Traxler and the Fried Liver thank you for making these kinds of informational videos.
The videos are not too short; they ARE engaging. Other chess streamers put me to sleep but your animated enthusiasm makes your videos exciting to watch. Thanks for being a great teacher and for all of the great content that you provide!
Just came back to rewatch. Great content!
I want to thank you very much for your interesting, revealing videos. Thank you. Love from Italy
Levy’s sub count is faster than the 9 year olds saying *first*
lmao "Amazing Little Monsters"
First
i love getting my opponents with this. you just know how smug they are when they think they've got your rook and then you just completely stomp them
you have it all, good pace, interesting, vast knowlege of the subject, and entertaining. You really are a fantastic teacher
my favorite counterattack. thanks for the awesome video
I don't really comment on videos, but because of this video I've never lost to the fried liver because of the fried liver. Usually because I've blundered something in a hasty attack 😂
levy: hows saving the king
my opponent: flips board and pulls out a gun
Aren’t they just killing themselves
Very informative. Not only did this video help me against Stockfish Lvl 4 but I also found out that you can just copy and paste the notation into a lichess study chapter instead of having to enter lines/variations starting with a "blank" board and entering in all the moves. That'll save me so. Much. Time. Thank you.
Good tutorial man. Cheers.
Awesome poison! Hunted many kings on the board! I always gets pumped up playing these opening!

''u win in 9 moves as black i cant do u any better'' i feel like he sales me books or something xD
I love watching the whole video! It helps me see lines I've never seen, and helps me become a better player!
I'm always here to the end Levy... because your videos are so engrossing! You're awesome... and I would love to witness you becoming a GM! 😊
"Fried livering noob" lol. I love watching your chess videos! It's very helpful with all the tips/tricks you show :D much love from sweden!
I'm not extremely good in chess but this was THE MOST EXCITING video about chess I've seen in a long time! I was laughing out of joy:) This guy really makes chess feel like a real battle on a battlefield
Of course the video is engaging. Thanks a lot!
First time I heard of the traxler gambit very informative thank you.
It’s all about the passion and language . You make the game seem a lot cooler for those who consider it geeky
I crawled my way up 1000 literally 5 minutes ago.
200 of those points are directly attributed to this video and to the early queen video.
Congrats
WOW!!! :D
I luv watching your videos all the way to the end I need the one how to study chess so when I buy your course I’ll know what to do.
I watched this video long ago, but now that I play the Jobava london with white I just love how the Traxler can transpose into a Jobava with black. I'm definitely using this now
I was taking a look at this earlier this morning and memorized key moves Bc5, Qh4, etc. 5 mins ago I finally had an opponent play the fried liver against me and I checkmated him in 20 moves in a bullet game. Feels so good! Thanks a ton Levy! 💪
"...Black's material deficit is almost too great to be measured, but the force of his attack is enough to chill one's blood". Fundamental Chess Openings.
Pretty much summarises many Traxler variations.
This is by far the most helpfully video. I play this line very often and have it played on me.
Was watching your new video and saw a game where your opponent played the fried liver. Which I see like 90% of the time in my games. Your advice was to play the traxler so I came here. This was just the kind of advice I was looking for to elevate my gameplay and finally have a response to fried liver attacks other than trying to do it first or getting out of the way. Another great video.
When you say ‘if you’ve made it this far…’ you’re talking to me every time. Your videos are indeed engaging.
I just want to say thank you for all the content you put out. I won my school's chess tournament largely because of your videos.
Very nice, Thank you.
Bro literally I loved this video so much I watched this like a 100 times.good job man
First game after watching this someone fried livered me, usually I'd be terrified but crushed it with the traxler!
I played 1...e5 as black for the first time in a long time at my club last night and my opponent played the Fried Liver. I didn't handle it great, but the game ended in a draw. I'll definitely be studying the Traxler, thanks!
Hey, I really enjoy your content. It has taught me so much. I was watching your new series Chess Steps when you talked about the Traxler. Which made me seek out this video. I studied it and decided to try it next time the opportunity arises. And well, it did today! It was an absolute victory and my opponent, allthough rated 200 points above me, had no idea what hit him. It got me a 95,7% accuracy rating. One of my highest so far. I mostly end up between 60 to high 80. Thanks again and keep making these videos!
Levy thank you so much! I learned the traxler and won many games with it, thank you!!
This looks really good and I will probably try it. It seems risky though as I might forget a vital move.
