Hi, they're in this lecture, we see the Stanford Gumede range of tramp's, so this actually occurred
in the game.
Loans against Stanford played in 1950 and the correspondence came.
So we see of the E4, we can play five nights a free and there is a solid defense.
You can use all the parts of the fence.
Petro's the fence and they take the pawn.
And here, instead of playing the usual stand, the move desex.
You can actually set a trap.
So this is a standard opening in its own right of the 1984 game.
Continues like that quite often, but you're going to make it quite exciting, setting some dangerous
traps for the opponents.
And you can play 96.
So you're offering a whole pawn to advance so they can often take you play detailed C6.
And the key point fundamentally is you set up an x ray to the opponents queen.
You've also opened up both bishops, which is pretty useful as well.
Both of these bishops are now opened up.
So it's a position which you have interesting tactical possibilities, in fact.
Now, let's say they play the move if they might be provoked by 85 to defend their pawn.
Well, as a way of defending that horn, instead of playing noisy fray, as a way of defending their
form, they're moving the ball forward.
If they play this, then you've got a fairly comfortable position.
In fact, here, for example, you can play Bishop C5 in this position and it can get quite interesting.
So later.
You know, say they played Bishop Itoh, you can even Amed Council on the other side of the board,
the queen side, and it's it's kind of an interesting position to play with, especially on first language
roles.
But let's say they do actually kick the night as a way of defending the court and they kick the night.
You actually have a very interesting option in 94 here.
And if one plays a very bad move here, it can be a total disaster.
And we're going to look at that bad move first, say they play the move differe, which seems sort of
natural to kick that in right away.
Guess what is what is an amazing move in this position, which actually in the correspondence game caused
this to be a super miniature.
In fact, it plays a move here and why actually just resigned.
So back in 1950, correspondance came the move.
You might want five seconds to pause video.
OK?
It's Bishop C5, it's looking at AFTA COCOM Square with both pieces, but if these guys are looking
AFTA, how does one actually defend if dictates we play a very forcing move to sponsor based on the
coins looking at each other.
You might want five cents portfolio, look at the high priority forcing moves in that situation and
you might find Bishop.
I have to check, check, check, check, all captious, check all major threats that I made to one
to bishop sites have to check.
So if the king leaves here, we take on the one.
We just want the coin and thinking goes to Itou.
That doesn't help Bishop G for Chank rescuing.
Well, kind of, yeah.
It's mostly a royal skewer.
And then we're taking the queen.
So, yes, we made a terrible, catastrophic error in playing defraying here.
In fact, there are better movies available for white and sort of differe.
Such as the fall Sifry 93 Queensferry, these are all better moves than differe, but your might actually
just like differe allowing this Bishop C5.
So yeah, it's a very interesting trap to be aware of
and it's it's a fairly interesting opening to play.
If you're playing with the black pieces, it's not an entirely terrible opening here.
So maybe you do want to play this solid defense in general and maybe for your first time trials you
want to use it Satrap.
So instead of playing desex, you sometimes play this gambit and it does seem to win a lot of games
on the first time controls.
People don't seem to be aware of the underlying dangers.
The subtleness of the x ray is a major fundamental feature here to bear in mind the x ray kind of the
queen x ray and the opponents queen through this pawn.
And so, yes, when we're looking at this position, also, bear in mind it's not just the three, which
could be the source, that they could be the most Afri being played.
And then you've got more delightful stuff.
So Queen Age for check if great takes and how you're winning the rook, that's absolutely delightful.
And, you know, they certainly don't want to go out and about.
You know, this this looks absolutely bad for King safety.
Their king is not very happy.
They're so afraid of another major kind of disaster move the bear in mind to kick this pesky knight
away.
So, yeah, the trap.
Yeah, differe.
Bishop C5 is is very, very nice.
If Bishop is free to try and defend the pawn, then actually you can play Bishop takes free the obtains
Queensrÿche for Chac and here we can exploit the pin with Knight.
Thanks Jeoffrey.
The pen poem against each one that's getting a big advantage there.
If we look at this again instead of bishop if
are say they play.
DeFore, here, you might think I'm just going to say the --.
In fact, you know, on this x ray mechanism can do better than just taking this day for --.
You can actually play, believe it or not, nighttime's have to hear there's a lot of tricks of the
King Zaitsev to Bishop 64 chag, what ends up losing the queen again?
Here we go back to have to check winning the queen.
Yeah, it's brutal.
Know the mechanics of chess.
This is the harsh reality of chess.
It's got these amazing tactical ideas.
If you love chess, you have to love tactics, even if you're going to be a more positional player later.
To love tactics is to really know the brutalities of the chess board first hand.
And some of these traps feature those brutalities.
If King Jeoffrey, we just played Bishoprics E five Chank and we're looking at the Queen.
So here we just take her and say the queen.
And, you know, on King one, it's just recap here.
I think you need to we've got Vasek brutal stuff indeed.
So taking I mean, just take on this one.
So, yeah, if you want to set a whole load of pain for the opponents with this kind of naughty trap,
just bear in mind you have the opponents know the best them.
Sometimes some of these traps, some traps are more kind of dodgy and controversial than others.
Now, this one, you know, for the first time, Butros, where peace play and activity is generally
a good priority to have, it's easier to play the role of the attacker, putting people under the pressure,
forcing them to have to play precise moves, precise moves in a faster time, control like blitz cost
time.
So even if they can initially defend the attack, they might have invested a lot more time than they
wanted to if you just played a normal opening.
So the the act of just creating dynamic piece pressure is a very, very good winning tip, especially
for the first time, which rolls to set the opponent real problems in solving those problems.
They lose a lot of time on the clock.
So this is a good point scoring.
And there's an I am Eric Rosen, I think, which cannot be ignored.
If you want to check.
He's got a YouTube video about this Staffords, Trappes as well, and from other variations, maybe
if you want to have more deep dive into this.
But yeah, it's from a nineteen fifty correspondence game.
So the popularity has gone up dramatically because of international author Eric Rosen.
So, yeah, be aware of both sides.
You know basically what to do for both sides if you want.
OK, let's flip the board.
You might be worried now about playing with the white pieces here, but they do play nice.
C6, I'll give you the antidote.
OK, so an antidote is actually just play free.
Don't don't come forward.
Don't don't invite the night to a fifth rank.
When you invite knights to a frank like in the Siberian trap, you know, it can be really dangerous.
You don't want to invite a pesky knight into your possession.
And here you can actually play another solid move to covering G4 just in case that has any naughtiness
in mind there with G4.
So here, you know, say they did go for your king with H5.
Still, you're getting a nice advantage of ninety two if 94.
OK, they're threatening checkmate the fans with no referee and now you can start closing up their pieces.
Defoe was the scope of the piece C for threatening C five and why it's getting a nice advantage once
you close up that bishop, some of your worries are disappearing from the position.
In fact, here you've got a tactical move which actually wins material.
Can you spot at this?
Bishop is actually a rather big problem here because you can play before.
Ouch, actually.
Yeah, it's a big ensemble.
A lot of people will not play this way.
It's good for you to know the answer, though.
And that's why this trip, some of these trips might only be, you know, your your tools of choice
on the force the time controls.
So here's the answer, though, and that is not the kind of, you know, cover the key squares, not
be provoked, forward to covering as priority, just protecting it for protecting you, for playing
things very, very safe and cautiously, even if the opponent's trying to make you to just bring the
other night systematically too afraid to defend H2 and then you're starting to push the opponent back.
And this actually sets up a big front.
And, you know, blacks in big trouble here.
Big, big trouble on the side, 24 hours ahead, we're going to feel the queen and bishop.
So, yes, this can be very, very controversial and.
Hopefully, if you do set the trap, they're not going to play like that at all, they're just going
to play it off and you're in luck.
So that should put a smile on your face after 94.
And they really do this, an even bigger smile on your face of bishops.
If you're leveraging the power of an x ray tactic and these ingredients you definitely want to master
and in their own right.
So see the tactic.
Section x rays come up in quite a lot of things.
OK, that's much.
