best opening trap in history
Sort:
this "celada", was played so many years ago and its registered in chess books
thats what i mean "history"
ofcourse it is
this from a real game of mine. i played 5 min blitz game with black i didn't need too much time to win.
regarding the original board, why would you move to h6 playing black?
Presumably ...h6 was played to prevent Ng5 on the next move, tho it does not need to be prevented; or on a later move if Ng5 might follow a Bxg7+ sac effectively, which it turns out it cannot do. So besides being a weakening move of the BL kingside, and the usual loss of time ... here it is also pointless. Sometimes in this type of opening an ...h6 move is seen after the d2 pawn moves, in order to prevent a Bg5 pin. Although there are few double Kingpawn openings where BL can afford such a luxurious use of a tempo during the development phase of the opening, in that particular case it can be a workable & helpful idea. Partly because the WT position is rather lacking in sharpness to begin with. (Unless of course, BL happens to play into the trap line. But what if he decides not to get Mated & played dxe5 instead of Nxe5. )
black is actually playing Philidor's defence.
if dxe5 is played instead of Nxe5,
then white may continue it with Be3 and both have equal game .
btw "legal" word mean "cool" in spanish? ;)
legall.... i think
legal,s mate played by Blackburn in the nineteenth century.
yes i think u r right

Those all look more like blunders or the opponent having less insight into the game to me. Doesnt look like its forced or like a trap ..or am I missing something?
They get greedy and take the queen, assuming their opponent's made a blunder. I don't know what the definition of a trap is, but offering a queen in exchange for a forced mate a couple of moves later probably qualifies.
Traps such as these are great in blitz games.
even if black takes night instead of queen then white will get the bl bishop and strong position
