🔹 Bishop’s Opening (Complete Playlist) –
In this video lesson, GM Igor Smirnov talks about one of his most favourite chess openings for White, which is the Bishop’s Opening happening after 1.e4 e5 2.Bc4.
This opening comes with a lot of attacking ideas and deadly traps for White. Very often, Black’s most natural-looking moves and the most played moves lose the game for them very badly.
In this video, you will learn some really cool traps and winning ideas for White after Black responds with 2…Nf6.

Perfect move simply and easy
Nd5 cxd5 then Bg6 Pinning the queen to the king
what about the traxler
Nd6+ Bxd6 Bg6
Knight D6 forced pond take then Bishop G6.
I love the game
9:07 Nd6+!! does not matter how black takes it we play Bg6!
You start off with 1.e4 e5, 2.Bc4 Nf6, 3.Nf3 Bc5, 4.Nxe5 – black could now plays 4…Nc6, if white responds with 5.Nxc6, he's basically playing into a Stafford Gambit. If white plays either 5.Bxf7+ or 5.Nxf7, he's basically playing into a Traxler Counterattack. Basically, the game has become a variation of the Busch-Gass Gambit.
Maybe I missed it, but it seems you never address 3…Nc6 which transposes from a Bishop's Opening to a Two Knights Defense.
👍
Your going back videos
your playlist of videos, on Bishop's Opening, is great. for this playlist, can you make an index video, showing how the videos of the playlist relate to each other? thanks!
9:04 kd6+, if knight get's taken by pawn or bishop, bg6 pins and traps queen
If king moves knight takes queen anyway
Next move is rook
Nd6
Bg6
And u win the queen
In the beginning, why can’t he mimic? Yes, you fork, the rook and the queen, but can’t he do the same?
That is the same opening I use
after f6 what about nxe5 fxe5 qf5+
at 5:23, what if black plays bishop e6 ? doesn't he succesfully defend ?
Igor I know you smart and I studied a lot of your lines or advise in the beginning.. but like with this video .. no one will ever play d4 like that.. please post more content with lines that are a little more realistic.. much respect don’t mean to offend
Nd6+, exd6 (Bxd6)… Bg6!
Here comes The BOOM!
I always try these traps you mention but they don’t seem to work when the other player has no idea what to do and keeps making random moves that end up ruining it.
Very beutifull, but.. Some black defensive moves are ignored. ‼️
G8h
Knight to d6 check, and then bishop to g6.
(Nd6+, Bxd6, Bg6) pins and wins the queen.
Note: If you are a beginner, watch out for the false refutation (Rg8!?) appearing to counter-pin the bishop to your queen. Check is your trump card here (Bxf7+) this forces the black to either step aside (to d8, e7, or f8, which loses immediately to (Qxg8) or play (Kxf7) which loses the tempo and allows (Qc4+) skewering the King to the rook.
For more fun, (Kf8) is the only move which doesn't lose the rook immediately, but after (Bh6+) black is left deciding if he's going to give up the rook (and a LOT more) anyway with (Ke8 or Ke7) or try the better looking (Rg7)… which leads to a forced mate in 5 with: (Qg4) as the rook is pinned, double attacked, and black has NOTHING to defend it with. Their entire position is passive and crumbling. (h3) may attempt to distract you, but the threat is an illusion. (Qxg7+), (Ke8) forced, (Qg8+), (Ke7) forced, (Bf8+), (Kd8) forced, (Bxd6#) checkmate.
Never forget the power of check.
Nd6 Bxd6 Fg6
Nd6 and bishop g6
3:09 black can move qe7 and the white lady looks very loney. bg6 would only worsen the loss in material. This is a fast win or die attack with litte chance of success. Even if white castles first, I don't like it.
i love his power points.
In my experience, these videos always show the opponent making moves that never really happen. 😂😂😂
8:59The combo: N-D6, followed by B-G6.
I love your videos but I don’t think any of the higher rated players would fall for that kind of tricks
Someone crushed me with this bring out his queen after I forked his queen and rook.
3:35 – Knight f6. I can't see here why black had to resign.

greatest chess channel. Do you have a video to counter queen's opening?
Nd6
Bishop to c4 sets a trap for the Queen. That’s all I see
How to continue after Nc6 at 0:51 ?
this opening is discussed on many youtube channel, now this is becoming the most played.
Nd6 is the move. But if that is the move, we should have executed that move one step before only.
I followed well until Nf3 but then he did nxe4 so I did nxe5 and then he just did d5 😅😅
Dear sir i watch' your all'video, really amazing, you institution of chess, my chess game improved…. thanks Sir God bless you
