347,995 Players Fell For This Trap 😮
Summary
TLDRThe video teaches a clever opening trap in response to the popular Fried Liver Attack, which lower-rated players often use. When white plays the sacrificial Knight to g5 move, black responds unconventionally with Knight to d4 rather than recapturing the pawn. This tempts white to play d6, allowing a brutal queen sacrifice by black. Even if white avoids the trap, black retains a strong position thanks to the active queen and developed light-squared bishop aimed at the vulnerable white king.

Transcripts
if you're rated between 1 000 and 1600
there's a very good chance you've seen
this move a lot this is the start of
What's called the fried liver attack
there's all kinds of videos on YouTube
about why this is such an amazing
opening for white and that's why you see
it all the time everybody is trying to
play the fried liver attack but today
I'm going to show you a trap that you
can play in response to this that over
300 000 people have fallen for it's
going to get you a lot of quick wins but
the nice thing is even if they don't
fall for the Trap it's still a solid
opening that leaves you in a good
position let's go ahead and see how you
can punish this move
all right so E4 E5 the most common
response is Knight to F3 Knight to C6
and Bishop to C4 this is the Italian
game and you really have two main
options Knight to F6 and Bishop to C5 I
personally prefer the two knights
defense Knight to F6 and if that's what
you play and you're rated between 1 000
and 1600 there's a very very high
probability that your opponent is going
to play the move Knight to G5 it's
threatening a fork on F7
and it's setting up to go into the fried
liver attack now if you're unfamiliar
with that if you play the move D5 what
white is hoping for is that after they
take you'll recapture here and they will
sacrifice their Knight on F7 trying to
lure your king out they'll play Queen to
F3 check forking these guys the only way
you can defend is if you go up here and
you end up with your king in the center
of the board and they get to attack you
and it's a lot of fun for white and not
a lot of fun for black so I don't
recommend that you play that
although I do have a video on the
Channel showing that you can play it if
you want but today we're going to be
looking at a different response so when
they play Knight to G5 we're still
playing D5 everybody's going to take you
with the pawn that's really the only
move here for white but now instead of
recapturing with your knight here you're
gonna play the surprising move Knight to
D4 now this is not a very common move
okay the the common line here if you're
not going to go for the fried liver is
Knight to A5 so this probably some of
your opponents have seen before but
Knight to D4 it's a very rare move and
it has an incredible idea behind it so I
want to flip the board for a second here
to White's perspective and the most
common move okay between 1 000 and 1600
rated players in this position is the
move D6 now why would they play this
move well it's really quite obvious they
you know the whole game they've been
going for this attack on F7 the Pawn's
in their way so they think well I'll
just push it Forward let black capture
it somehow and then I'll have my
follow-up fork okay so that's kind of
the idea that's why you see this move
all the time so what do we do against
this we play the move Queen takes D6
now you might be thinking Nelson we're
still getting forked like did we miss
this what are we doing right and this is
exactly what we are hoping our opponents
will do now there's really two moves
that have been played here with any kind
of regularity Knight takes and Bishop
takes if they take with the bishop this
is the better option for white but it's
still okay for us and I'm going to show
you a little trap here if they do this
one as well so King to E7 we move and
they have to save their Bishop because
if they don't move their Bishop let's
just say the castle what we're going to
do is play the move H6 and now when they
move the Knight their Bishop is no
longer defended and we simply can take
their you know their Bishop for free so
that's kind of the problem for white so
they have to move this bishop and going
back to B3 is really the only safe
Square for them and when they do that we
simply take it and we kick the Knight
away and watch what happens to this
Knight there's really not a lot of
options because our Knight's controlling
here Bishop's controlling here this is
these are all controlled so they have to
go back to F3 we attack it again
and most players at this point are going
to say well I don't want to move my
knight I'll pin your Pawn so that I
don't have to move it but we just slide
our King over and guess what now they
have to move their Knight and if you
look carefully the Knight can't go here
it can't go here it can't go here it
can't go here here because of our Queen
it can't go here because of our pawn it
only has two options and they're both
bad for white if it goes here guess what
G5 traps the Knight the Knight is gone
you can't go here you can't go here
because our Bishop and you can't go here
because our King goodbye to the Knight
okay so if they don't want to lose their
Knight they have to go back to G1 but
that's a terrible move because now they
can't castle look at their pieces
they're all in the back Rank and we can
simply just keep up the pressure Bishop
to G4 attacks the queen and if they try
to block guess what we take it doesn't
matter how they recapture bam Rook to E1
we pin the king and the queen you can
see how much fun this is for us right so
even if okay even if they take with the
bishop going back to this position after
we take with the queen even if they do
this we're in good shape bring the king
up trade the knife for the bishop and
just go attack the Knight that's all you
have to remember all right now most
people are not going to do that they're
going to take with the Knight and
they're gonna go for the fork I mean
they spend all this time setting it up
right sacrificing the pawn this is what
they're gonna do
and that's exactly what we want because
we have the move Queen to C6 and a lot
of people think oh we're attacking the
bishop but I'm gonna get a rook okay
it's not a big deal and they're gonna
take your Rook again they've put all
this time and effort into this they're
kind of committed to this plan right so
they take the Rook but we don't take the
bishop we have bigger fish to fry Queen
takes G2 which is attacking The Rook
with a check now how do they save The
Rook there's only one move Rook to F1
and now what do we do queen to E4 check
and the King cannot move white has a
choice between giving up their Queen
which nobody's going to want to do or
blocking with the bishop but if they go
here do you see how we're going to
follow up
well that's correct Knight to F3 is
Checkmate that's a smothered Checkmate
the bishop can't take because the queen
is pinning it and the game is over in
just 10 moves incredible right and like
I said this is pretty common okay going
back here 300
000 people
um sorry after this move 300 000 people
have played the move D6 okay going for
this
so
um that's the basic trap okay we take
with the queen they Fork us we go Queen
C6 they take here we take here we go
back with the check and we win the game
like this now some of you are thinking
but Nelson what if I'm playing a smart
opponent who doesn't fall for the Trap
what do I do all right let's take a look
but let's say
um they take you play Knight to D4
and they don't play D6 the other move
that some people will actually the most
common second move
is C3 they say okay
putting his Knight there I'm just gonna
attack it with my Pawn
and what we're gonna do here is play the
move beat five so we're counter
attacking the bishop so that when they
take our Knight we take their Bishop
okay so usually you're gonna get this
trade
and then most players with white are
going to notice that they can just take
this pawn and get both Pawns in the
center so they're going to take and now
we are going to take D5 and by the way
I'm going to put a PGN uh in the
description you can copy and paste that
into like leeches or chess.com so you
don't have to try to like memorize all
this stuff and it's going to be down
there for you but we're going to take
with the queen
and yes our Knight is hanging but watch
what happens when they take we take
their Knight so it was just a trade and
you might think oh but they're going to
take here but Watch What Happens we take
back and it might look like our position
is is kind of open like we're missing
some pawns we got some bad Pawn
structure but actually white is the one
in trouble because we have a thread here
and they're not developed they haven't
developed a single piece we already have
our Bishop ready to go this bishop is
about to come out the Queen's in a good
active place and so Watch What Happens
most players will Castle to defend this
and you simply played Bishop B7 and
we're threatening Checkmate here and
it's not an easy Checkmate to deal with
there's a lot of ways that white can go
wrong here for example if they play G3
they've totally weakened these squares
long term and we simply Castle
and just take a moment and look at how
many squares we are controlling look at
this this look at this bishop look at
our Rook controlling all of these look
at our Queen controlling this and this
and this and this and this I mean we're
like controlling almost the entire board
and look at White's pieces
nothing okay this is great you've got
ideas of bringing the queen here to go
for a Checkmate you can push this Pawn
up too and trade here to open up the
Rook for a Checkmate you can also just
bring the Rook over and play in the
center so many good moves okay
the other option is that they can play
F3 trying to shut down your Bishop like
this but then you come in with Bishop to
D4 check forces the king over Rook to G8
piling on threatening Checkmate yes
there's a little check but we don't care
just slide the king to D7 you're totally
safe this rook's coming over here to E1
to E8 you've got the Checkmate threats
you've got both Bishops laser beaming at
the King Fantastic okay so that's just
kind of an example even if they don't
fall for your trap it's not a bad line
okay
and so I highly recommend this trust me
when I say if you're rated between 1 000
and 1600 you are going to see this from
time to time and if you are ready for it
play D5 and when they take you hop the
Knight into D4 review the lines that we
just covered and you are going to get a
lot of quick wins hope you guys enjoyed
this video as always thanks for watching
stay sharp play smart and take care
