CRUSH the Sicilian | The Mengarini Gambit
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 тра 2024
- Hello everyone! In this video, I teach you about the Mengarini Opening, and the corresponding Mengarini Gambit. This hyper-tricky gambit occurs in less than 1% of Sicilian Defenses, despite the fact that its win rate is OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!!!! Because of that, tricks are abundant and very common, and in the mainline, we reach a position where 70% of all games have fallen into a trap. If you enjoyed this video, like and subscribe for more!

Awesome, thanks for the video! Btw, I believe 12:18 is a king/queen fork as well! You don't need to exchange queens.
My friend loves playing the Sicilian, so this will be very useful! Thank you 😊. Your channel is very underrated, keep up the good work!
I'd recommend researching the Alapin, you get a very nice centre with the same tactics with na3
@@maxhenderson1890 the problem with the Alapin is that it is easily countered with the move d5, as your opponent gets large amounts of acitivity with their queen without much punishment
@@spinnysponk778 I disagree. If e5 you just take, if queen takes then either nf3 or na3, with ideas for na3 of nb5, forcing the queen back to e8. If however that's not possible because they've played h6 prior to not allow you to do this, then either bc4 attacking the queen or nc4 with threat of nb6 forking rook and queen. White gets very quick development with tempo on the queen and black needs to be very careful.
At 19:41, instead of moving the knight to c4, you can STILL move it to b5. If the pawn takes, you can take his rook with your a1 rook.
Well, you can, but it is an innacuracy or a blunder, depending on how you continue. If after Nb5 Qd8, you play d5, black has Na5 allowing for the capture of the knight in the next move by unpinning the pawn.
If after Nb5 Qd8 you play Bf4, it is a blunder, because black goes e5, dxe5, Qxd1 Rxd1 and axb5, and black ends up with a knight and pawn extra.
And if after Bf4 e5 you play Bxe5, then Nxe5 dxe5 and the sqme thing again
1160 daily just lost his horse :0 unbelievable :) This is easy my favorite opening jet! Thank You so much for covering this! Good Luck!
i actually love to play the mengarini and this video helped me!
This is sooo cool! Loved this variation
Hi, tks for the open! I play it and no one analysis it like you! tks
A combination of the mengarini gambit, evans gambit and fried liver attack are great for e4 players who want aggressive play
Thanks for fulfilling my request! You are the GOAT! :)
Edit: 14:12 Can't black take the g2 pawn with the queen?
Also, 19:30 can't I simply play that previous knight move because of that rook pin?
Edit 2: Please reply...
At 14:12, if they capture g2 then you want to capture the bishop with check, most likely Kd7, then Dxe5! Sacrificing the rook, but if they capture then Kf1! and an eventual Bd5 will come and the queen is trapped. May make a short on this because it is a lil complicated.
At 19:30, if we still play Nb5, it is not terrible for us, but we get a line similar to the e6 trap. The problem is black can have the ability to long-castle with a check after trading queens, while simultaneously escaping the pin. At the end of the day, we give black the advantage for no good reason. Hope this answers your questions!
Hey man, where do you get all these traps from?:) is there a nice book or something like that? If not,maybe you can come up with one, your collection is just awesome
I just find them through researching openings and such.
2:22 looks like a mirrored Lindon system tbh
Omg. After I watch your video I literally playing against Sicilian and it took him 30 sec to move after A3. And then I can't get the trap because he play pawn D6 scared of some trap. But then we develop just like this 4:19 . I can feel his anxiety because how confident I am to move my knight back to his starting square. And then he resign with 10 sec left of his time and we don't even finish our opening yet 😂.
17:51 the move used here is the C Knight moving away but why doesn't the F Knight not just take the D pawn? It's only got one defender while Black has two attackers so I wasn't sure what follow ups involve that line
They can’t! If Qxd5 then Nc7+ forking. If Nxd5, then Qxd5! Qxd5, and Nc7+ forking and ultimately winning a piece
Ah right the pressure on c7 is causing all sorts of ruckus. Didn't consider a queen sac because I forgot it basically isn't a sac at all! Thanks!
gonna annoy my friends so much with this
What about Qa5 after Na3?
im gonna watch this and not remember jack shit when i go play lmao
What if Qa5 after Na3? Bb2 then?
14:20, wanna ask what if the black queen captures g2?
Capture the d6 bishop, king moves, then rook to g1. After Qxh2 you can play dxe5 and you'll have a very strong knight controlling lots of squares
Also known as the wing Gambit isn’t it?
Delayed wing gambit
Wing gambit is the immediate b4 after c5, this delayed version is better practically and objectively
hi
Hello!
Hello!
19:42 can’t you just play knight to b5 because is he takes with the pawn you just take rook on a8
That's actually a great find I missed when analyzing, essentially Qd8, and we get a similar line to the e6 variation, where black can have a small advantage due to rapid development, and an eventual long castle to escape the pin.
yo
yo
12:18 can't you just take the bishop on d6 and just fork the queen?
Yes actually, I was just making a point about the queen moving and then being able to trade queens then capture, but I guess I didn’t see it

nope, 2...Nc6 IS NOT objectively the best move for black in the position. GMs play g6 and the engine at depth 47 also says g6 so no. that is a false information.
why you steal the rooks guide videos??
