You seem to have a great talent for teaching chess. Very clear, interesting and accesible way of explaining.

[jeffkaplan]

You really are the coolest teacher of ANYTHING on Earth !!! Thanks Igor !!!

[Rhapsohd]

I used to brute force all my games until I came across your channel and started learning chess theory. Your videos have taken my game to the next level, thank you Igor!

[simongreenwood]

Thanks for the consistency in your content much appreciated 🙏

[Zywl]

ok the first trick is cool, but now I feel like I should study more standard alekhine defense theory, in case white doesn't follow "the plan"

[matteogarcia]

Thanks for the line on the wing gambit, I had this position a lot and was actually following stockfish that suggests queen e2 which wins a piece for the pawn loss, but then it's not so simple to know what to do, yours seems easier to play for humaisn and more active in terms of piece development thank you for that

[Musicfan]

The albin counterattack has a different idea aswell which is more interesting

[andrewx]

What you call the two knight defense looks like a version of the Blackburn Schilling trap. I once beat a good player using it in eight moves.

[ohyeahohyeah]

In trap 2, black always had the option to play Qh5+; will that be a problem?

[wg]

2:23 Isn't the pawn on g5 defended by the queen?

[lougaru]

I'll get the Tennison (ICBM) gambit more often when facing the Caro Kann. Scandy players usually don't take it for some reason. That's only my experience though

[ingogoldbeck]

Trap 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7 are also patterns i have very often. Need to learn this.😊

[Wholesome_Heaven]

"THE" best teacher on the internet

[ingogoldbeck]

Many of these moves nobody plays. See trap 9 why should anyone play c4?? I am looning for a good reaction to this pattern 1. D4 F3. please help 😊

[sandykarmakar]

Superb Video Sir. 😃🙏 Thanks a lot for such kind of a video. 🙏

[TomKriek]

OK, how to win against that? Because now all my opponents will do this! I will have to go study this video very intensively.

[DarkTempler]

I have watched many videos and attempted many traps but for some reason I either get into a position where its impossible, or they see it coming and don't let me. Regardless if speed chess or not.

[ingogoldbeck]

I have the Situation of Trap 8 very often but dont Think this works, because everybody will check with the bishop, what do you guys Think or experienced?
