chess trap #3 Ponziani

[dimethylethyltritolu]

insert hands, slow down the motion by half, keep the music, and you have a good movie opening...also, am sick to death of q's gambit, as white or black, and i can use the opening; nice bit...ciao.

[RaD1K4l]

@1:20 black is saved by N+c3 but then B+d8 N+d5 B+d5 K+d5 and White has a winning position with an estimated mate in 6

[MultiOblivious]

what is the name of the song???

[Kampy187]

I think it's a really impressive strategy

[bytmig135]

on 0:47 why white didnt move Qd1-f3 instead of moving the white bishop, that way, its threathening for checkmate and he has to move the black horse :)

[RicercarUPSB]

@bytmig135 because that's easily defended and from there you're not going anywhere.

[FeRoX0r]

I don't understand jack of what this vid is about and i got no idea how i got here but i like the music! nice work :D

[Vonzi0000]

@FeRoX0r actually this is no longer the original music I did a audio swap.

[AwesoMaster98]

Wow! There is a chess move named like my last name!

[secretbonus]

How do I respond if rather than moving the knight black moves bishop to c5? chess.com/explorer/index.html?­id=7501546&ply=10&black=0

[Vonzi0000]

@secretbonus

1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.c3 Nf6 4.d4 Nxe4 5.d5 Bc5 6.dxc6 Nxf2

[6. ... Bxf2+ 7.Ke2 Bb6 8.Qd5 Nf2 9.Rg1 dxc6 10.Qxd8+ Kxd8 11.Be3 Bxe3 12.Kxe3 Ng4+ 13.Kd2]

7.Qd5 Nxh1 8.Qxc5

[secretbonus]

@Vonzi0000 wow, facinating thanks.

[JamesBoy4LifeMan4Luv]

I just realised how White still has an advantage (a piece for a pawn!) in my last post.

but if instead of 8...Nxf2, we see 8...Nf6, attacking the d-pawn, then 9.Nxg6 (forced) ...fxg6, then White must protect the d-pawn with 10.Bg5. Now if 10...h6, 11.Bxg6+ Ke7 12.Qe2+ Kd6 13.Bf4+ Kxd5 14.Bf7+... Black's gone. Otherwise, White looks good anyway.

[JamesBoy4LifeMan4Luv]

I just realised how White still has an advantage (a piece for a pawn!) in my last post. If instead of 8...Nxf2, we see 8...Nf6, attacking the d-pawn. So 9.Nxg6 (forced) ...fxg6, then White must protect the d-pawn with 10.c4 or 10.Bc4 or 10.Bc2. Looks pretty even, but Black has a strong move in 10...Bc5.

[campguy]

I play the trombone as well as Chess....so I liked this video. Who played the music?

[quickturtle]

@ohsomecustard LOL......I agree

[HolyHolcomb]

Worst music ever!

[Vonzi0000]

@HolyHolcomb Watch newer videos most of them are with commentary!

[IkeBio]

In my opinion, black would not play Nxf2, forking Queen and Rook, cause it have nohting to prevent the king to take the knight (except the fact that white loses his Castling ).

[Vonzi0000]

@IkeBio After Kxf2 Nxe5 Black is up a pawn and White wont be able to castle.

[calumvs]

I will, thanks

[calumvs]

I will, thanks :-) Commentary is always welcome.

[calumvs]

Did the music help? No.

[Vonzi0000]

@calumvs check out some of my newer videos with commentary!

[TutiiFrutii]

good song

[michaeljimpogi23]

thats great trap!!

[xox0808]

Omg, what's the name of the song?! :) great video by the way!

[martinyi]

that music is atrocious

[jbaptistec2003]

Nice opening, but nowadays there's almost no 1...e5 Black player, so it may be a bit hard to pull it off...

[iDraw3G]

yes there are, they're called beginners.

[wiesoliestdudas]

i don't know its not that bad for a u2000. Even Fritz recomends it for a non blitz match

[richmond436]

Actually, A LOT of people play 1...e5, you moron.

[tomnuor]

The music is great! I´ve never heard a song like this one.

[johnmrrs]

your music is fucking annoying

[calmbuddha]

seriously, wtf is with the music?

Are you Leonard Bernstein in disguise?

[Vonzi0000]

1)watch newer ones they are with comentary

2)Who the hell is that?

[wellusee]

Very good lol !

Be ready to pause when pawn moves to b4.

[GrandmastaFizzle]

I use the ponziani all the time in tournaments; it's pretty badass.

[latinocool79]

Cool.... very tricky and trappy.... THE MUSIC IS SO AWESOME!!!!

[kkick]

I love the music.. lol

[McSplashy]

eeeeeee4

[McSplashy]

do you have a grade Vonzi0000 is it ecf or iccf

[Vonzi0000]

no but I will soon get a swiss chess federation rating (I live in switzerland)

[McSplashy]

ill give you a game of chess by sending the moves 1 by 1

[McSplashy]

WAT! when bd3 why does black go nxf2 he could just move to nc5.

Please answer my question. P.S good Video :):):)

[Vonzi0000]

ye that is better(just trades:Nxg6 Nxd3+ Qxd3 hxg6),

but Black thinks he can win a pwan by Nxf2 Kxf2 Nxe5

unfortunatly for Black White can sac the queen.

[Vonzi0000]

after Na3 there is a way out of it: Nxc3, but I think most players wont see that and you are still a piece up.

[JamesBoy4LifeMan4Luv]

@Vonzi0000 After Nxc3, then ...Be3#. I think that after Bxg6 that Black would smell a trap and I just know that in the club my opponent would spend 15-20 minutes going over the whole thing, then take with the f-pawn (...fxg6), ready to castle with the R pointing at the exposed King (after Kxf2). White IS a piece for a pawn up, though... captured 2 Ns and a p for a B and 2 ps. White can castle by hand. If this trap fails, no danger, that's the best thing; many traps, if they fail, you are gone!
