Excellent video as always! Loved that you went in depth on the position with the Bishop on f6 and Knight on d5. Didn’t realize the compensation for the pawn was so strong in that line. Look forward to your video on the scotch gambit.
I have been playing this opening as white for a while and missed in the video/pretty much anywhere mentioning this opening is the line with Nc5 instead of Nf6 at the start of the variation. The main point is white intends to play BG5 and get all of their pressure through the pin. unfortunately for white, routing the knight to E6 removes any of these threats and black can comfortably continue with the same plan in the current main line of c6,d5. There also becomes the option for Nc6 where you chase the queen away without having any of that annoying and pesky pressure through the pin on the H4-D8 diagonal allowing black to expand with D5 with little risk. This variation has never been played at the master level, and only 1% of the time on lichess so it is not known, but it is prep I came up with after studying the urusov gambit with the engine for about 5 hours. Black tends to either keep the pawn, or with precise play from white he regains a pawn and it peters into a draw. In fact, in some lines it is white that gets harassed and pushed around for example: 1. e4 e5 2. Bc4 Nf6 3. d4 exd4 4. Nf3 Nxe4 5. Qxd4 Nc5 6. O-O Ne6 7. Re1 Nc6 8. Qg4 d5 9. Bb3 h5 and suddenly whites attack is coming to an end and they should now focus on regaining their pawn or risk being down a pawn with little to no compensation/potentially being attacked himself. There are still many attacking lines here for white but all of them either give black a solid advantage where both sides have counterplay unlike the typical urusov game where only white gets to have an active plan OR black is up a ton in material and white is forced to find some complicated attack that leads to a perpetual.
Hvala Mio, puno naucih na tvom kanalu! Stil, nacin objasnjavanja.., sve - respekt. U zadnje vrijeme me zaintrigiralo "lovcevo otvaranje" pa se vratim iznova na ove videe. Eto i radujem se kursu na chessableu koji si spomenuo
@Mio this is the first of your videos I’ve watched and I agree with Frank. For me the pace and depth are good and your delivery and explanation are clear. Great job. 👍
Thanks, good fun! There are other lines for black, like the super boring Nc6- immediate d5 (easily my recommendation if black's ok with a draw), the unexpectedly playable Nc6-Ne7-Ng6 and the Bb4 stuff. I used to play the sort of 'classical' setups as black with Qh4 and Bg5 and such, I found this to be the easiest one to handle for black: 1. e4 e5 2. Bc4 Nf6 3. d4 exd4 4. Nf3 Nxe4 5. Qxd4 Nf6 6. Nc3 Nc6 7. Qh4 d6 8. Bg5 Be7 9. O-O-O Bf5 White needs to castle first, no time for Bd3 due to some tactics.
I love the Urusov gambit....i love gambits in general, but the Bishop's opening is very dangerous. After 3 moves( e4, Bc4 then d4) Black must think they're genius after taking both central pawns, but the White pieces knows better! Thanks BigMio for the tips, tricks and tactics!
I watched 3 minutes of this video and already won one game on lichess vs 2050 player. Lucky for me he hadn't watched it. Thanks Mio, my new favourite channel.
Big Mio! Love it. Johnathan Schrantz has a really cool rep where he is basically trying to achieve the Urusov gambit, he sometimes ends up doing a Nahkmanson, and some other interesting gambits. Have you ever checked out any of his content?
35.07 My engine on my level (estimated 1600) at 7th move (till now main line suggested by Mio: 5. ... Nf6 6. Nc3 ... Nc6 7. Qh4) tried another 7. ... Bb4. I knew, that according the previous 6 th move we are in set - up black Nc6 (so not in alternative of black 6. ... c6 followed by ... d5) and also here I used the same set - up for white with active 8. Bg5. And it worked ! So I came bravely through downsides: after 8. ... Bxc3 9. bxc3 riuning my pawn structure, after 9. ... d5 10. Bd3 ... Qe7 11. Kd2 losing my castle - right, and after 11. ... Ne4+ 12. Bxe4 ... f6 13. Bxd5 ... fxg5 losing also my bishop pair. But my iniciative was tremendous and after 14. Nxg5 ... Qd6 15. Rae1+ ... Ne7 16. Qd4 ... c5 17. Nf7 ... Qh6+ 18. Qe3 ... Qxe3 19. Rxe3 with the battery of rooks on e- file I managed to win the exchange and whole game. Thanks to Mio, Urusov gambit is important continuation of bishop opening and I´m looking forward to use it after covid restrictions also in practical chess !
Small correction: on e - file I managed to win the piece, not the exchange. And with seeing Mio´s answer I´m very glad to add my Little to Great - Mio´s - work (using every meaning of word connection :-) ).
In the position at 11:35 you recomment Qd1. I had this position OTB and remember you say the plan but I had troubles getting my head around the positions that arises after 8.Qd1 h6. I ended up playing 8.Rxd7+ and was quite happy with the position. After the game I analysed with Fritz and with Stockfish and they disagree what is best. What do you think about 8.Rxd7+ ?
Oh I will be getting it then. Also, what line should I take if instead of playing and knight moves in opening and instead they defend the pawn with bishop
It is realy helpful and won lot's of games!
nice
Absolutely fantastic... thank you
😉

Yeah Chris, we’re having a great compensation in that final position. White seems to have a great attack! 💪 Thanks for request! 👍

I gotta check those order of moves. Not sure Black can go for Ne7-Ng6

Nakhmason is coming soon! I promise! Just for you man! 👍
I see some nice beverages on that shelf lol. Seems like he would be a cool guy to stay up late with drinking and playing chess.
You should have watched Chessbrahs at the time…
This is the first gambit I learned but this video is way better
Thanks man 😀
My favourite opening!
Cheers DannyBoy! 👍
My favourite opening, it's so good it's like you're cheating :)
Trueeee 💪
Thanks Mio, legend
Thank you champ 😃

Wow! Why didn't I discover this channel earlier?
In order to be a friendly guy and a good human being, do not let others make the same mistake and let them know about it 😂
@@MiodragPerunovicOfficial Will do! 👍
Great video! exhaustive and very thorough! But I wanted to ask you: why in 23:45, after 12...Ne4 13.Qh5, can't Black take the Bishop on h7?
Let me check and get back to you, drinking now 🥃
@@MiodragPerunovicOfficial ok! 🍻
Sorry Leone I just saw your message! You mean to take ok h6? Then Be4 as I showed on the video!
@@MiodragPerunovicOfficial yes, thanks. But after Bxe4 what happens?
Nothing White has unstoppable attack!
Are there any issues with shooting for an Urusov gambit with this move order when opponent goes for a petroff? 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nf6 3. d4
Chris, Bumble made a great point! Thanks Bumble for detailed and great explanation 👏👏👏
Bumble is right, but if you want to go with that move order Mio has a video on it!
Janete also made a great point 😉
And I did to!
Cool
42:06 what about Re8 f4 c6? Probably to hard to fin over the board, but they can play Re8 it looks like
Sir when h6
And Bxh6 Ne4
Idea. Please explain. How to deal with this idea.
In Nc6 variations
Stockfish 14 plays 4. qxd4 instead of 4.Nf3 , maybe this Line is underestimated
please cover the naksmansom also plss
Coming soon Nishant 😉
In the position at 11:35 you recomment Qd1. I had this position OTB and remember you say the plan but I had troubles getting my head around the positions that arises after 8.Qd1 h6.

I like creative part of your move in the game. Gotta check that position though…
When is book coming out my friend? I will make purchase the day it comes out
Lol, it came out 2-3 months ago! 🤦
Oh I will be getting it then. Also, what line should I take if instead of playing and knight moves in opening and instead they defend the pawn with bishop
@@jakegarverr you will find everything in the course
The course in the book you are referring to ?
I’m new to chess as well as your channel . Increased my ratings from 500 to 900 in like two weeks with your videos 💪🏼 much to learn yet
