this was one of the funner games ive played

this isn't your game it's the lasker trap

whatever it is i played it and it worked so blah.

and there is no such word as funner, and as Matt1728, said it is the lasker trap and he played right into it

actually funner is a word.

did i ever say that the series belonged to me? no. i just said it was an "easy" way to defeat the opening 1.D4; it is a game of mine. I just played it. It is not copyrighted u kno

is it just me or does no-one here see 8. R x Kn

RxN loses the Queen after the Bishop check.

That's why I love the Albin Counter- Gambit... so much fun at a beginner level!

If 8. Rxg8 then 8. ... Bg4 skewering the king and the queen.

It's cool that you got to use this trap in a game.

If the King doesn't move, Bg4+ wins the Queen.

If the King moves away from the Queen, Qxd1 wins the Queen.

My question is what Black plays after Ke1.

8. Rxg1 loses to 8...Bg4+!

Edit: Sorry BlackWaive, you beat me to it.

ill just let the white advance and switch to nomwich defense, the end result is i have one pawn left, thats my opinion

Kevin its queen to h4

from there Nc6, Bg4...(black's moves)

And how exactly the existence of this trap "beats 1. d4"?

At first I wondered what you do if white plays 11. Bg2 to take your queen, but I suppose Nh3+ works quite well.

Very interesting.  I have never seen this trap before, but I haven't been active in chess for too terribly long.

You see that in this trap Black looses his queen aftrer the bishop check but still, black has 3 pieces for his queen. White has the advantege but It would be a very interesting game to play

Actually I now realyze its just to pieces because the knigth was a pawn
