Using the Fishing Pole Trap
Hey Guys,
Sorry for the second post, but I have been having a lot of luck with this chess trap, and wanted to share it for those who don't know about the "Fishing Pole" trap. The basic move order is below:
This is generally a response to the Ruy Lopez opening. I just played a game, where the opening was the Four Knights opening, but watch how you may still execute it:
I love this trap, as it continues to be effective, however, this isn't to say it will work 100% of the time. This is just a way to punish white when they open with "1. e4...", and do "5. O-O...".
Try it out, and see if you can trap some opponents with the Fishing Pole! Happy playing!
Cheers,
- P.
