My favourite line in the Portuguese scandi, and now these super-sharp continuations, explained by the inimitable big Mio, awesome! I can still hear him in my ear "What are you doing MAAAN? Complete your development!". A far better teacher than I was a student :)
Got a game with the Icelandic gambit happening today as black. Unfortunately I mixed the Portuguese and icelandic variation together as I couldn't remember the correct moves 😂 But managed to come out on top after only 21 moves!. Just discovered your channel yesterday, but must say I like it so far!!. Greetings from Denmark.
Lepo.Još jedan kvalitetan materijal. Žao mi je,što nisam bio u prilici ranije da se sretnem sa ovim gambitnim materijalom.Sviđa mi se takav oštar repertoar za crnog. Hvala.Pozdrav.
Amazing presentation and analysis as always maestro but I have a question if you'd be nice enough to indulge me : why short castle for Black in the last variation instead of long castle bringing the rooks to the center one move faster? Is it too risky? The a pawn becomes no longer vulnerable because taking it opens the file to White to attack? What is the justification. Thank you and sincere 👏 on your content!
Hey Mio!! Fantastic video, I loved it :) But I`m just wondering if you are going to make a video on whites sidelines, as 3.d4, 3.Nc3 3.Nf3 and 3.Bb5+ ?
Not really, but I think the more common third moves are easier to play against. Many 3. Nc3’s, but 3... Nxd5 4. Nxd5 Qxd5 transposes to basically normal scandi minus the knight on c3 and you’re at least completely fine. People also play 3. d4 a lot but after 3... Nxd5 4. c4 Nb6 I think you’re still fine.
It is amazing to have such high level analysis on UA-cam. The Butcher is a cut above.
I've had so many quick wins with this opening, absolutely love it.

You are irreplaceable my man! 👍

Thanks a lot Daniel 👍

You are late Stefan, but it is never too late for real things! 😉
It looks tricky but I will try this for my first long game tomorrow!
Good luck champ! 🍀
Love this! Thanks for the video Big Mio.
Always Aaron 😉

Samo napred Bobane 💪
Great content Butcher! You really butchered the ideas and now I’m gonna employ this crazy gambit
Good luck Sayaf! Kill them all with Icelandic gambit! 💪
Fascinating ideas and tactics resources, when we'll can see this defend in live blitz?, thanks.
This looks great 👍
switching to bowling

Kim Roger Hansen Westrum Will be everything, but as the time goes by and when I get more of time, requests, donations...
Scandi portuguese gambit complex would be nice. Someday. Stay health.
What is complex? Give me order of moves
I think he meant this
1. e4 d5
2. exd5 Nf6
3. d4 Bg4
Thanks Niccolo! There will be one about it for sure :)
Exactly.
You were 2300 at age 16? Amazing... thanks for sharing the video.
Well, it isn’t bad but Karjakin was GM at the age of 12 😂
#teamscandi excellent content as always!
Thanks Chris! Enjoy Skandi! 👍
Do white players actually play 3. c4 against you all here??
