In this video lesson, GM Igor Smirnov shares with you an aggressive opening variation in the Bishop’s Opening that will give you a winning position even against experienced opponents!
It is kind of an improved version of the King’s Gambit, where you move your f-pawn at 5.f4. This move has two reasons: 1) Black cannot play d5 because of our c4-bishop 2) We can use the f-file to attack the f7-square along with our bishop on c4.

I have seen the knight fork (attempt) many times in the 1100-1300 range but not much below. Either way when it comes up, slide the queen to h5, then bishop to g5 and black starts to crumble everytime. A little more common in lower ratings is black mirroring you on the queenside to start, which gives you Qg4!?, I like when they bring the queen out and try to play for a checkmate that doesnt exist, again they crumble once they seem how close to being trapped their queen is, then the rook to apply more pressure on f7 and it looks very good

I'm glad you did another one of these cause I wanted to comment: I picked Bishops Opening to work on because its the first variation in David Bronstein's "200 Open Games". I'm STILL doing Bishops Openings. Weirdly, in 30 minute rapid games, people play generally properly. They angle towards The Italian Game and we have a standard game....but lately in the Daily Games?? I can't tell you how many times people have responded improperly. G6.....C6...Nc6-Nf3-f6 Not bone-crushing mistakes, but enough for me to go "What are you doing?" and punish. How do people not know this opening. I can tell they don't because they hesitate so much to make move 2 for black

9:40 Puzzle: I think Qxf7+ would work, forcing Kh8. But instead of sacrificing the rook, as many suggested, I suggest forwarding the pawn to g6 as followup. Black is then unable to prevent Rxh7# in the next move. Or did I miss something?
@billbills2501 Жыл бұрын
Got the same answer but the rook sacrifice keeps them in check the whole time. Also the variance of what black can do with that free move, delay mate in 3.

For the puzzle, 1. Nd5 closes off the king's escape route. Doesn't force a move by black, but they can't address that knight in one move. Any move other than ..f6 results in 2. Qxh7+ Kf8 3. Qh8# 1. Nd5 f6 gives an illusion of space for black's king but ultimately leads to 2. Nxf6++ Kf8 3. Qf7#

Igor, Really enjoy your videos. Thank you for all of the information that I have learned from you. I love the Bishop's Opening & have done well when I have been able to play it. The problem is that I seldom get to play it. For example today I played 3 games hoping to play the opening, but no one answered e4 with e5. I saw pirc, caro kahn, and scillian. I'm not good enough to know all of the lines that these openings require. My question is there an opening for white that is more universal against most responses, but still aggressive like the Bishop's Opening. Thanks Jim

Maybe there isn't any but I'm looking for an e4 opening that can be used against all of these. If I get the e5 response I still want to play the Bishop Opening. Is there such an opening, or should I switch to a d4 opening to avoid these. If so what would you recommend.

@russellkramer1376 Жыл бұрын
I have a question about an apparent attack for black against white at time 3.15 which was not addressed in this video. Rather than using the knight to fork the queen and rook, black could have checked the white king with his queen. The only obvious move is to block the check with the pawn. Then black could have checked white king with the bishop. White would have been forced to move the king somewhere after which, black could take the g3 pawn with the bishop. If white takes back with the pawn, the white rook is exposed to attack by the queen. I would really like to hear why this line is not strong for black.

If you look at it on stockfish you end up getting the bishop and knight for the rook and a +4 advantage.
@BoomaOhDet Жыл бұрын
The real problem is that after f5 black has h5 completely equalizing and shutting down white’s attack.
@RickThoreen Жыл бұрын
After Qh4+ from black…1) g3, Bf7+ (as you mentioned); 2) Kf1, Bxg3; 3) hxg3, Qxh1; 4) Qxg4! So you play right into taking bishop to lose rook as you said, but your queen then also picks up the knight on g4 on next move. While this may feel uncomfortable, stockfish shows white advantage of greater than 1 minor piece, and the lone queen in corner apparently poses no real threat even though your king feels a bit open. Technically the material exchange is equal…rook and pawn for knight and bishop.
