I don't know how Mr. Gambit came up with all these different openings
Its actually a very strong chess family, like how there's different Bernoulli's and Lorentz's in physics and what not
@@aanon4019 I don't buy it man, if they are so strong, why they always losing pawns and pieces in just few moves?
@@adamaugustyn5629So they can give their weaker opponents a better chance
He's a vampire and has been "living" for over 400 years.
Looking forward to this series! Haven't played the Blackmar-Diemer before but I definitely am going to give it a shot too
Love this gambit. The schilling gambit! Thx, Ben!
Can't wait to see this in all of my blitz games online for the next 3 weeks! On a serious note, this looks like a really fun opening.
Great Video. 👍
Just tried this, but opponent played his own game. But the lessons I’ve learned previously enabled me to play to what was presented by my opponent and I had a nice win. Thank you GM whatshisname 👍 Love your work Ben, thank you.
I love gambits! Looking forward to this series! How about covering the Latvian Gambit, Budapest Gambit and the Smith Morra in more detail? Thanks in advance Ben 🙏
Don't play the Latvian Gambit. It's thoroughly refuted and even if it isn't, I think it's just easier for white to put the pressure on. I've never studied the refutation, but people play it against me in bullet games and somehow I end up taking all their pieces instead of them putting me under a ton of pressure. It's good if you're playing someone under 1000 that plays exf5, but if they don't, you just have a horrible position. The other day someone played it against me with 3... d6?? Horrible. I was +5 on move 4 and found the refutation over the board in a 1 minute game. Smith-Morra is great though. Not refuted and you get a lot of long-term pressure even if the opponent doesn't blunder early.
@@12jswilson I think I'll study it a bit and give it a try in online bullet. What could possibly go wrong? 😃 Ok, I might lose some games but gain experience otoh... OTB? Of course not.
Advice Cabinet has several approachable videos on the Morra, if that's what you're looking for.
@@noahz Thanks, I will check it out!
I love refusing them, confusing the audience. Mainly my opponent.
I love playing this gambit, one potential you should be prepared for is black declining the blackmar gambit and transposing to a Caro Kann with c6. This is a really good option for black if you don't know this gambit and already play the CK.
Ben please keep focus on lectures
.... you're a great teacher... always loved your lecture at ccscatl. I love your famous players from the past and opening series.... please focus on lectures rather than games live streaming.... looking forward for more lectures
We miss your videos at ccscatl platform. Love from Pakistan
Nice Job, love when Ben goes over lines. That grandmaster prep
This gambit looks like Smith-Morra with white - if you're winning, you're trashing your opponent like they don't know how to play chess. Thanks for the video, Ben!
These are great! Looking forward to the next ones.
Great video.....thanks!
Nice. Thanks GM Finegold.
Very cool
ty
This is great. I love the educational videos.
The Blackmar-Diemer never really appealed to me, but I kinda love the pressure you get with the Ryder Gambit. Should I ever try out 1.e4 (I've been thinking about that for quite a while), I'll definitively try it out. Stockfish really hates it, but I don't see my 1200-rated opponents finding the accurate moves. Thanks a lot, GM Finegold!
Cool, i think this is gonna be a good series. Ben is 😎 👍
more!! pls and ty
Nice
Looks like a fun opening to try out.
Great series! I think Ben should use more of his humour, usually he is funny and enjoyable to watch, but here he is hell serious :D
Hey, love the video!! If you have the time, do you think that you could make one with the Smith-Morra gambit if you have time?
Can’t wait for Budapest
Ben giving an opening lecture where f3 is played. Very suspicious.
cool..
The only gambit, the king gambit !
We want moreeeee Big B
The Finegold Fine Gambit series.
Isn't 6.....Qd8 better, making the queen safe?
won good games with this
I sometimes play this against the Scandinavian
What happens if black plays bishop g4 after queen takes pawn?
Great idea! Ben. A series on gambits: the tricks and traps therein; it reminds me of a series of articles in "Chess" (Sutton Coldfield) concerning "theoretical novelties" (TN's); gambits and counter-gambits.
I seem to recall: a gambit line in the exchange Slav; similar to the Winawer counter-gambit; more than one article on Rb1 in the Grunfeld (a popular opening, since in the world championship match Kasparov v Karpov it was played in about every game); but a gambit line in the Sicilian; well that article came to be very useful, for me.
1.e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. Be2!? Nf6 4. c3 Nc6 5. d4 cd 7 cd Ne4 8. d5 Qa5+ 9. Nc3 Nc3 10 bc Ne5 11. Ne5 Qc3+ 12. Bd2 Qe5 13. 0-0 ...
That was the line I was prepared to play; two pawns down, possibly three; but my (3) opponents chose a quieter line on move 6. At move 10 I was told I could join the central club of the soviet socialist republics, one of the very few Scots to join, I suppose... so yes; a little theory can go a long way.
I really like(d) this idea, also "guess the next move" (with points for prizes); puzzles and their Christmas quiz (brandy not included). I look forward to more gambits, for the club player; but could you also include the Grandmaster refutations as a few gambits are defunct (if you know one line).
After 4. a3 in the Winawer French; 4...Ba5... the surprising move 5. b4 might just rule that line out completely.
I played 4... cd against Vlastymil Hort (got a good game)... but that's another story...
I do like your channel; Chess a great game; best wishes from the Wandering Dragons.
I like it when people play garbage openings against me.
If the BDG is this hard to shut down unlike the Danish, maybe I need to add it to my repertoire of surprises. I already have the Jobava London as a curve ball
I always fall for this one. lol
I gave up on the Ryder gambit after looking at the Qg4 line, which doesn't score well. But if you think it's playable, even at the club level, then I may look in to it again. I've found lots of lines that score poorly overall, but actually score well if you know a couple critical moves. Maybe this is one of those.
Nah Ryder's garbage. I've noticed a lot of masters cynically give it more attention though, with the idea that "it's all crap anyway, so the theory for Nxf3 makes it not worth learning". As someone who knows a fair amount about this ecosystem... I believe only the Von Popiel (4.Bg5) and the Classical (5.Nxf3) are worth putting any effort into. The former has all the same theory-light benefits as the Ryder without being dead lost if Black defends well.
rawr
finally! a video about the worst gambit in chess😂
The worst? I mean, Hikaru said the blackmar diemer is pretty much unstoppable for white, specially on beginner level chess
I have about a 60% winrate over a thousand online blitz games from Ryder Gambit! d4 d5 e4 dxe4 never play f3!!
hes a really good teacher when hes not trying to be funny every other sentence lol
He is an even better teacher when he does, though.
James Altucher is an idea machine but his chess is suspicious. I would counter with 2.c5 or 2.e5 confusing the audience.
I've always thought that the Blackmar-Diemer Gambit was Nazi good
???
it was developed by a nazi, joseph emil diemer, but i dont understand how that matters at all?
you know, like, chess was developed for entertainment of cruel tyranns back then, and its origninally about war, but you still play it
At 5:56 you say that black should play 12...Rc8 as it is "considered the best move BY ME." I assume you emphasize this because you're aware that Stockfish thinks black should play 12...Bxd1, getting rid of that pesky white rook on the open d-file. In fact, 12...Rc8 isn't even the second best move in this position. Stockfish comes up with 12...Bxd1 (+5.86), 12...Rd8 (+8.51) and 12...Rc8 (+9.15). It seems to me it is worth it for black to give up his rook (on a8) for white's far-more-active rook in this position. This is based on analysis at a depth of 46, by the way. In any case, it all goes downhill for black after 6...Qb4?.
very d gambit..
I have a question" how many squares on a chess board?" I will give you a clue. 64 is NOT ! the answer we are looking for.
Good luck
I know you, but who am I?
