what are some of the most effective traps to catch people in blitz?

Solid play works best.

If you want to win against idiots, then try to learn some traps. If you want to be good chess player, try to learn chess.

Being good at chess also means being familiar with traps, especially in blitz

Ok, try

Igor Smirnov (on YT) has many videos on opening traps.

Seeing everything like 6-7 moves in advance

"Traps" are just another way of saying "tactics".

So if anyone wants to get good at those - just work on tactics.

This trap has worked for me at least five times, but Bg5 is already a blunder and White is much worse even if my queen is not captured.

should I comment on that game like Gothamchess

Go for it.

OK normal game

(at Bishop g5) *claps hands* WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY. Ladies and gentlemen, you have found yourself a blunder.

(at Nxe4) and he sacrifices... THE QUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN

(at checkmate) what a beautiful checkmate

You’ll find much better analysis by Eric Rosen here: https://lichess.org/study/whCVdUeM

It was after going through that study that I started playing the Stafford Gambit. I’ve won many miniatures with the Stafford, including three in one night in a nine round blitz tournament at my local chess club. The tournament winner was one of my victims. I finished in second place.

The entire game, BTW, is in Emanuel Lasker, Common Sense in Chess, a book that presents abbreviated versions of lectures given in London in the 1890s.

not really a gamechanging trap especially at my level but people tend to accidentally fork themselves against the london after white goes ne5

ill provide an example later im too lazy to explain it right now
