Beth Harmon's First Game - Mr. Shaibel Does Scholar's Mate On Beth

Ойындар

This is first full chess game we see played in the hit Netflix show The Queen's Gambit. In this game, it starts with a regular King's Pawn opening, but very quickly the custodian Mr. William Shaibel springs a timeless trap on Beth, winning the game in seven moves. Let's explore this opening trap and how the Scholar's Mate works and why one pawn in the opening position is so weak. Let us know if you've seen the show and if you've ever played or been caught with the Scholar's Mate.

    I resisted watching the show for a while, but I'm really enjoying it, so looks like we'll have more analyses to come about The Queen's Gambit Netflix show ;) 0:18 Also, you open your queen diagonal too when you do the king's pawn opening. I forgot to say that.
