Igor Nation rise up

Puzzle solution is Bd3 Queen is trapped. If it moves away, there is mate in 1 on h7. They can grab the rook but you will still win the queen in the next few moves.

► Chapters 00:00 Schliemann Defense Against the Ruy Lopez Opening 00:29 3...f5 is more aggressive than you think! 01:47 1) If White plays 4.exf5 (mistake by White) 03:33 White loses in just 7 moves! 05:03 2) If White plays 4.Bxc6 and 5.Nxe5 07:28 3) If White plays 4.d3 09:25 Black's plan of kingside attack 10:44 Puzzle of the day: Can you find the winning move?

The most concise, educational chess teacher!

I suppose the solution to the puzzle could be Bd3 attacking the queen and if the queen moves there is checkmate on h7

Bishop d 3 wins the game for the puzzle because they either lose the queen or get mated o h7

Great vidéo !!! Despite it's already my favourite opening against the Ruy lopez, in only 11 minutes it teached me 2 cases letting Qh5 happen (as a trap) and then Kd8 (when it's not anoying) instead of playing the profilactic move Nf6 (that can loose some innitiative). Very usefull. I hope (and bet) that it's not the last video about Schliemann Gambit ;-)

Great great lesson. ..Many ideaa and tactical move to include in knowledge...thank you

Loved this video Igor! I'll definitely try this against the Ruy Lopez as I dislike the slow, manoeuvring and positional structures it normaly ends up in.

Great lesson! Thanks

Thanks for the video igor! Suggestions : Can you cover about scandinavian defense modern variation about the line e4 d5 exd5 nf6 nf3

Hello Igor. I would love for you to make a video going over a weapon against the Sicilian defense after 1.e4 C5 2.Nf3 e6. Love your videos keep it up! 👍

Thanks GM Smirnov! God bless!

Just started learning the main line in modern chess openings, wondered why it didnt say what happens if they take on f5, chuffed this video is here!

Bd3. Threaten Queen and Bh2# after Qxh1+ play Kd2 to prevent Rxe3+ which may allow black to draw or simplify. Black cannot save his queen and prevent mate from Bh2# in one move, therefore winning material.

Very entertaining as always.

Best chess teacher on the net; I've gone up more than a houndred points on lichess (in 10 minute games, from 2000 to 2100+) thanks to your great work!

Very Nice 🎉 would be very glad if you made a continuation of this video about the remaining moves after f5: Nc3,d4, O-O. In little bit higher rating they allready correspong to 30% of the games.

I love this continuation of the King's pawn Gambit themes! Is there openings for white that you recommend with the same theme?

I am very proud to be a part of Igor Nation!

Can you do a video on the latvian gambit (Greco Counterattack)? 1 e4 e5 2 Nf3 f5!!

Hello Igor! thanks for such usefull videos, can u prepare a couple videos how deal against scotch opening? заранее спасибо!

I think the solution is Qc3, if Qxh1 then Kd2 and black can't defend against Qh8# or they're gonna lose their queen, anyway, thank you so much for this video GM Igor !

Igor, you should try out the calasbrese counter gambit

Igor I'd really appreciate a video on the Dutch, specifically the leningrad (not sure of the spelling) Dutch

I need a video about Scott gambit

Sir, can you make a video that covers, How to completely play the Owen's Defense Some players play Bd3, Qe2 and play Nd2 and not Nc3 Its difficult when it is played

How about the 4.Nc3 line? Isn't this best for white vs the Schliemann?

There is bd3, qxh1+, kd2 and there is no more check for black and check mate looks unstoppable at h7. Also the queen is attacked by the a1 rook. Thought about qc3 too, but black has re5 to start with I guess to close down the diagonal

You are allwyse unique 💐

Just what I needed again LOL

Well, Igor, what about my question about russo gambit. What if attacked white knight doesnt escape to the 1 line but go to d4 immidietely. if you take with your knight, white moves the queen and attacs your king and its all over.

Puzzle solution: 1. Qc3!! Qxh1+ 2. Kd2 and wins because of the double threat of Qh8# and Rxh1.

In the Rousseau gambit accepted, after you advance your pawn, white can play Knight d4, and its a killer if you take it because of Qh5+ (plus bishop). So I never take that knight. Is this the same with the Schliemann defense? Will I be doomed if I take the knight of the apocalypse?

Yep I always take a long think when they play f5!

The puzzle answer is Bd3! Black would thought you are dumb and tkae our rook on h1 with check, but we will just play Kd2 and all the sudden, we are threatening Bh7# and Rxh1 at the same time, so black is defenseless.

I have always found the Schliemann to be very interesting & dynamic. Top players seem to prefer being safe by choosing 4.d3, otherwise if 4. Nc3?!, the position can get very wild if black plays 4..Nd4! (instead of fxe). It might appear that white has a great attack, and can chase the black king to the queenside, but black can still survive, as in this amazing draw: e4 e5 Nf3 Nc6 Bb5 f5! Nc3?! Nd4! exf5 c6 Nxd4 exd4 Qh5 ch Ke7 0-0 dxc3 dxc3 Nf6 Re1 ch Kd6 Bf4 ch Kc5 Be3 ch Kd6 Bf4 1/2-1/2 I would be very interested if you could post an updated video on the Schliemann that analyzes 4. Nc3 Nd4! and what white's best continuation is.

Is the solution of the puzzle be Bd3? that way black must sacrifice the queen for the bishop, otherwise Bh7 will be checkmate

Mate in three. Bd3,Qf3,Bh7#

I'm a citizen of IgorNation 😎

2:19 N can go to e5, so it's better to capture dxc6 always in this opening

I love remote chess Academy!

I love this opening. But I wonder when white takes our knight with the bishop, would it be better to take back with the d pawn instead of the b pawn? I'm thinking the open file in front of the queen keeps white's knight from jumping to d4.

Sir please give some more long time video🙏

Igor do you have merchandizers? T-shirts alike?

bb3 qxh1 + now make sure to go kd2 not ke2 or rxb3 + if kxb3 then qxh3 + or if b2xrb3 qh2 + qxqc2 after the king moves

Igor could you please make a video of the Grünfeld Defence

When they accept the gambit and you push e4, what if they play Qe2 and pin the pawn?

Bd3 Qxh1+ Kd2 Be7 Rxh1 would be my guess edit actually Qc3 is probably an even better finish as after Be7 black can no longer close the diagonal with their rook

Refutation: 4.. Nc3 fxe4 5. Nxe4 d5 6. Nxe5 dxe4 7. Nxc6 Qg5 8. Qe2 and white is crushing.

10:50 Bd3

What about d4 move?

Bd3 for mat or queen death ! :D

You attack the queen with bishop then give up two rooks and throw checkmate with bishop h7. Master plz cover Catalan opening as well.

What's the best response if white plays Nc3?

Can we call this the Ruysseau Gambit?

They always go Nc3 as 5th move.

Thanks Sir it’s just what the doctor ordered 😊Bd3,qxh1 Kd2

2:19 most often they go Qe2

It's like Kings Gambit. I'm always, if can, try open king rook vertical... Powerfull! Rools for white, rools for black!!!

Thank you. Finally i have weapon against the most boring opening possible. All ruy lopez player are nerd that memorize so much line

Bxd3 direct mate.😂😂😂😂😂

Igor nation ♟

Mmmm... what happens after e4, the Qe2, pinning pawn to K.

Computer suggests nf4 as a brilliant move just giving up a knight for Qh5+

You should call your viewers Smirvs of the Smirv Village.

What if they castle before they develop the knight

Bd3,Kd2 then Bh7 mate

ரொம்ப நாளாக தேடிகிட்டு இருந்தேன் ஆசானே..

1.Bd3?

Q-QB3

Bd3, Qxh1+, Ke2, Qh2, Bh7#

Igor💪 > gotham chess🙄

Call that queen ABBA, cause she never stopped dancing 💃

Bd3

Ruy Lopez should be the slow game but now we will change that

What if White goes 4. d4? Answer: fxe4; Nxe5 - Nxe5; dxe5 - c6

1. Bd3!! this is win move for white.

Knight G4 is not bad for white, lose the knight yes... but in next move check and strong attack comming to black king... i played this versus engine (one cheater player invictus 1500 elo) and i lose to amazing checkmatevin this variation

Bd3 wins the queen after black trades it for a rook, and then comes back to d4 to prevent checkmate. Then white wins the queen, but there's no more forced checkmate after white moves Bfg7. But if black can't see those tactics, it's game over for black.

6:12 xDD

Bd3..

So it's a Vienna gambit for black

I think Bd3...

Bro... why did my opponent play this we're both 450 elo

Bd3 Qxh1+ Ke2 Qh2 Bd3#

Vidit clearly didn't watch this video

No-one falls for this.

after the Rousseau and the Schliemann, can't wait for Igor to cover the Winawer Defense against the Three Knights Opening

Bd3 Qxh1 Ke2 Qe4 (Qxa1 Ba7#) Bxe4 Rxe4 Qxe4 and white wins

1.Bd3 Qxh1 2.Kd2 Q f3, but I would sacrifice my Queen and play though me being 1200 rated 2...Qxd3 3.Qxd3

Everybody gangsta until your opponents play a random move that does nothing... . . Develop forward! :D

The Rousseau gambit is so strong it works against a different opening

If Rousseau was Spanish...

bro just defend with a pawn Gambits won't work at higher levels.

I do not like the puzzles.

Advice for stupide chess players like me: These instructions probably must be learned by heart. Why? The black for example after taking by the white the pawn f5 - 1:50, which is the crucial mistake of the white/, mustn´t play Nf6 defending the square h5, where could go the white queen, but black must play e4, which is the winning move. I am the man who is not creative enough without sufficient informations /so probably I am not creative at all/ and I think that most of chess players are like this kind of man. But maybe in every branch of science and some other sort of things /the music and so on/ the man could be creative only after mastering these branches first with his memory - by pouring the informations to his head. And maybe that is the mistake of most of the people - they say that they have no talent but the cause of their fail is their lazyness to work, to memorize such things like these combinations in chess or in other branches - for example science - the mastering of some informations, some associations of informations be their repeating. Sorry for my rugged English. The most frequent fault of the teachers is that they don´t say about this reality their pupils, so many of them think that their success is in so called "talent" not in hard and long work, and they don´t work enough to have better results. I recommend you the book: Matthew Syed: Bounce. Mr. Smirnov thanks for your work. You are a good teacher, even if you do not say your pupils about the reality which I have written above.
