    In this video lesson, GM Igor Smirnov shares with you the 4 most common chess opening mistakes that millions of chess players keep making without even realizing that they are doing it wrong.
    First of all, let's make sure that you are not making these mistakes after 1.e4 as White, and secondly, you will learn how to punish your opponents when they make these opening errors.
    These mistakes are extremely common in below 1600 rating level, but even higher rated chess players often make these mistakes and fall for these traps. These mistakes happen after the most common opening moves (in the Italian Game): 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Nf6.

    note that most of these moves are objectively equal in the eyes of the engine, however, human players really tend to blunder later on

    • @joeb4142
      @joeb4142 Рік тому +16

      That’s a common mistake humans make. Some positions make them feel they’re on the offensive (and +) but the position is actually equal. Emotion can be a plus or a negative in chess. Computers regularly calculate 23+ moves ahead of the current position but only a few humans can calculate even 10+ moves ahead. So obviously computers have the advantage, all other things being equal. Equally obviously emotion, pattern recognition and mental+physical strength are huge factors in human vs human competition.

    Thank you for your free tutorials. They have helped me improve my playing in very short space. I wish I can subscribe to the main academy but as a nigerian; things are a bit difficult at the moment. Maybe in the future. However; I do have a question or an observation about these errors you just analyzed and the solution you proffered for White. moving the Knight to d2; Doesn't that prevent the development of the black spot Bishop. I remember in one of your previous videos, you had advocated developing your officers early on into the game and i have used that ever since and it had helped. So I am asking now; isn't better first to push that particular Bishop out before developing the knight. Are there draw backs to this? Thank you so very much once again for your teachings

    • @GMIgorSmirnov
      @GMIgorSmirnov  Рік тому +5

      First of all, I'm happy to know the videos were helpful!
      As far as I undersood, your question is whether White should develop their dark-squares bishop (for example, by playing Bg5) before developing the knight (Nbd2), did I get it right? In general, as long as you keep developing your pieces, you should be fine. However, in this particular opening variation, developing the dark-squares bishop too early (Bg5) may give Black a strong king-side attack (h6, g5 etc).

    hi.
    At time 2:09 instead of this white movement(C*e4), at first white moves F*C2+ & then C*e4 & black can not take small castle.
    At time 11:11 it's not the turn of black!! so FC8-G4 is wrong!!(look at the symetrical position of black pieces against white). it turns of white.
    but inspite of these mistakes, your training is excelent & i use & enjoy it. thanks.

    After h3 g5, what's wrong with g4?
    This seems best way to stop the pawn, even though it messes up the structure. Is this salvageable? Black can get the open file by sacrificing a bishop for a pawn (probably 2) but that might give opportunity to get the white queen involved in time to stop the black queen?

    I dont want to continue with the fourth knight because this leads to italian game which i dont like. So i pull my bishop and hope that the opponent grabs the kings pawn now, but this does not happen.
    So, can anybody give me some hints what to do in that 3 knights constellation??

    @thomzajac5411 Рік тому +1

    Question: Instead of having things get worse for white after white has used the bishop to pin the queen, would trading a knight for two pawns be such a bad thing? I am a novice, wouldn't even be able to guess my rating, but I've found that the people I play never seem to consider that I would trade a knight for two pawns. This is especially tempting to me when those two pawns are center pawns (in the example above they are not center pawns). Your thoughts?

      Bxf7 is even a worse move, computer gives like +2.00 for black. The king is actually safe on f7 or g8 and going to castle manually. Black have all the advantages: bishop pair, center, and the open F file for the rooks. The white knights are usually kicked back with tempo onto awkward squares and sometimes even trapped.
