Hi there.
In this lecture, we're going to go over a trap which was set in a way by Bobby Fischer against Samuel
Reserve.
This was in the 1958 U.S. championship where this occurred.
So Fischer played a four.
Brezinski played the Sicilian defense every 96 D4.
So this is an open Sicilian plan playing this game.
So get into a kind of dragon formation, Sicilian dragon formation.
Bob Black has not put the brakes on white playing a five here.
That's worthy of note that the deep hasn't been committed that consoles her and she just drops the Beshir
back in this position.
Now, here, Rozanski played night a five.
This is actually a mistake, quite a large mistake, believe it or not.
Now, the brakes haven't been put on.
My playing E5 and I'm black is actually kind of a weakness.
The last move that A5 is now available twice, quite often players black do play desexed.
Just putting the brakes on her after every one is a little bit better.
But here with 95, interestingly, Fisher does play 85 and we have the move 98 being played.
And it turns out this position has some amazing tactics for white.
There is a kind of extraneous possession of the queen against Queen.
This queen is actually an unprotected piece.
There is a pin point here, but the bishop is about to be snapped off.
Right.
Well, there's a remarkable resource here for whites in this position, which I wonder if you can spot
it if I give you five seconds for the video.
OK, if you check all checks.
Prioritize the following is my common advice throughout this course.
By the way, if you if you prioritize the moves, there's actually a very move at seven feet.
Well, isn't that just a terrible move black and take with either the rock or the king?
Not so fast.
If they take the rock, guess what?
How would you celebrate this x ray, your queen's kind of x ray independence queen?
There's a move here.
OK, at 96 and you've actually just won the bonus queen, you know, the queen hasn't got anywhere to
run and it's going to take it so on King takes again.
Funnily enough, 96 is great, even though it seems the king can take in the actual game reserves.
He just gave up the queen and had a totally lost possession, but played on kind of out of spite.
Didn't really like Fisher as the up and coming rival.
So so essentially he lost his queen in the actual game.
Yeah, but if the king had taken one can actually force a checkmate here with Queen de Five check.
And here live for a check of the King Tees, there's Ruchi one Jack King and for Bishop G5 Chac driving
the king to a light square and say, here, then we just go quickly, one check and this is mating.
So that's pretty brutal.
And you might ask, well, what about earlier on King's Cross?
You might have this question here about this situation.
What if Black had taken on be free?
And that also hits the rook.
Sure.
But you just played it safe sex and you're up after these transactions of the night saying, I want
F G seven.
You're up in material.
They might want to leave that poor man, Rukia is the best choice.
And your simplest way of getting a nice advantage is just castling the simplest way you can because
you're going to be taking this space, your material up here.
You have three minor pieces and a road.
The opponent has like a rug for membership, you're generally up and, yeah, this is just a great way
of having an advantage.
So this trap is kind of worth knowing about.
And also, from a fundamental tactical perspective, you know, what is actually the underlying ingredients?
If you ask yourself this question about traps, you also gain a kind of greater understanding of tactics.
Generally, these traps do have vicious underlying tactical elements sometimes.
And, you know, one element is this x ray.
Another is the presence of quite a few interesting forcing moves based on that x ray.
So, yes, quite a crushing trap.
So bishops have some track here.
It's quite the sequence.
You might very rarely play the sequence.
I mean, it requires your opponent also play the sequence.
Some of the traps here are more easy to get into on the board than others.
So bear that in mind.
It's not a particular easy trap to actually get on the board.
It would require the opponent playing this kind of version to sit in the fence.
So just to recap, 845, if they do play in such a manner one day with this energy sector, then you
can play Bishop CIFOR, drop the bishop back.
They haven't yet committed their pawns.
They go for your bishop and you play E5.
So, yeah, very, very interesting.
Interesting trap.
Bishop takes f7 check if they knew that King you can actually just play Knight.
Eighty-six has Splatt the queen, the the pawns pinned against the Queen.
The Queen got nowhere to run.
There's absolutely crushing.
You just want that queen again.
OK, so worth knowing about.
And the ingredients that make up this trap, especially because you might never actually experience
it on the board.
But it's good to know these disasters in the opening.
And what made up the tactical ingredients, it's very, very interesting to find that out.
So we're talking x rays, forcing moves unprotected.
Queen on the 8th is a few key ingredients to my mind.
They're OK and so much.
