Traps are fine if they are co-incidentally set while also playing a good move, or if you're completely lost and in swindle-mode.

Actually, for me, almost every move is a trap from about the third or fourth move on. If my opponent doesn't see the variety of combinations that can occur from a careless move then basically they've fallen into a type of trap:)

a trap is good in the opening, but i hate when people rely on traps. All opening traps can easily be defended. But people rely on them so much, especially at the low level, to which I would probably be considered a part of lol. I never play for a trap because any decent opponent will own your ass when you go for a trap.

Why do you care if people rely on traps?
