All the best Mr.Smirnov. You are great. Keep it up. I promised myself that I won´t stop until I am 2000elo (1140elo at the moment :D) and your videos will sure help me get there. One of the best chess channels on YT along with GM Hikaru,GM Jankovic and GM Naroditsky).
As said by some: a plan might destroy your chess, since you at every step depend upon your opponent to do exactly the same move as in the traps shown here. If you have learnt these traps and the opponent does something smart after 3-4 moves, you may find yourself in a losing position you have not been taught how to handle. I think most chess openings can be stopped with one unexpected move. That's what my fellow Norwfgian, Magnus Carlsen, does and he seems to do well...
Did you go over the Goldman variation of the Caro Kann, it's shockingly sound against the caro kann and it's gives white the initiative. It is amazingly trappy as well e4 c6 Nc3 d5 Qf3 Even with best play from black, it's playable according to Lichess Stockfish 16 Cloud giving white 0.0- +0.1. What is your individual thoughts Igor on this?
@8:44 make sure d2 is still closed like on this video, but if d2 is open, black can no longer do this trap and will lose very quickly. After h5xg4, white can answer Ng5 then to e6 if black is not careful
So I’ve started my chess journey today. Didn’t realize how bad I suck! I got up to 400 on day 1, and have been losing every other game since. I time out a lot even when in a strong position, or end up blundering in a way that traps my king. My goal for 2024, is ending with 1000 elo. Thanks for the help!

You are so recourcefull. Thank you for sharing
It takes a lot of imagination to think up these rare combinations of moves. Very entertaining fantasies.

What about in trap3 if on5:55 instead move who you offer black plays 7...b5?! It is a winning move

At @1:15 can’t black move Bishop F8 to E7 avoiding the discovered check?
In that case, Nxc6 , bxc6, Bxc6 and it is a fork !
Good
Excellent
