For the third trap (timestamp 13:24) I think white can mess up this line by playing Bb5+ instead of Bb3 to defend the pawn. If white plays Bb5+ and you block with the pawn it doesn't allow you to play the eventual Qd3++ and if you block with the knight you can't play the fork Nc2+. What do you recommend?

I love the Rousseau gambit, i started playing it after the first video when i had Elo 1750 and it brought me a lot of victories. When i reached Elo 1900 i started facing 4.d4 more frequently, and lost a couple of games. I got destroyed on the dark squares. But now in this video you show you can take on e4 and go for a risk/reward set up. I tried it, 3 times, and 3 times i won. Highly satisfying to win with this gambit and i can confirm it works against 2000 elo players. Your videos are the best, i hope you make a lot more

I played in the 1600-1750 range in Scholastic Chess, and I had many victories off of the Danish Gambit for white. Even games that I lost were a lot of fun to play.

I love Gambits, and this is certainly a good Gambit to learn, thanks for the video, very educational and entertaining.

I played the response to white's e4 just as you described and got the checkmate with Qf3 exactly as shown! Totally pumped by that!

At 1:05 it is possible to play Nd4 because if you take the knight Queen h5 is possible with +3,6. After Nd4 is the correct move Nf6 with equal play.

he also said ng1 the only move in the last video where he showed this trap... i dont know why he always is wrong in this part but im not a gm. if white plays nd4 black got a big problem.. but if we just ignore it no one plays it? ^^ i dont get it. stockfish cant handle the situation if nd4 and nxd4 but who is this stockfish to tell us what is good or bad. as a gm he shouldnt say Forced to go Ng1 because thats just 100% wrong.

Now ,338k people know this Gambit 😅

It's very useful for even advanced players. Thanks

the fact you said gangster while talking about chess made my entire Monday, thank you, your videos are very helpful for low rated players like me.

And me too 👌🏻...i won so many chess games after i saw this gambit on your channel and thank you for that... 3rd trick is new to me 🤯, and so cool and "gangsta" like you said at the beginning of this video...all the best regards 💪🏻

I love Igor's phrasing. "Totally destroys write", "totally losing", "white might as well resign now", "Now the Queen is trapped and you just win!", "Punish a bad move" lol. Love them all.

I was doing Dura's Gambit that transformed to this very trick. The opponent maintained the H file with his rook. I never thought of the idea to re-route my knight and force him leave the G-File. We ended up killing each other's rook. However, I won the game due to him not getting the chance to castle and save his king. I also admire your idea of first capturing the white's Bishop before forking the king and the rook. Thanks mate.

I have played this gambit since the last video on this gambit, and it's been very useful.

Igor you make the best chess videos

I love to see your clips. Thank you very much.

Finished in 14 with Qxh3#. White tried a Queen defense where a double check forced White to defend with and lose the Queen. Was a lil worried about an early Qh5+ but the wide open fried liver was too tempting for White to pass up. Good stuff!

My favorite opening! I'm a gambit head, and my 2nd favorite after this one is the Englund gambit: Hartlaud-Charlick variation.

Super cool brainstorming ideas. Love it Thanks 🙏

I love this Gambit, along with the Luccini and the similar Jaenish against the Ruy Lopez, for blitz and bullet. Especially as I play the Vienna as white. I feel that the very sharp lines improve my tactical development and piece coordination. I always played the Caro before, but now that's just for slower time controls.

This is my fav of your Rousseau vids. Thx igor!

You answered all my previous questions, thank you.

Playing this in 2/1 games all the time and so much fun, thanks Igor!!

can you show what to do in the line that you let them fork you but instead of blocking checkmate threat with pawn or castling, they protect the pawn with their queen.

Brilliant counter opening sir... I request for more video, like other advance opening...godbless.

@9:20 they are more likely to move knight to take rook, because its also a check worth thinking through scenarios like this though

Igor - you are awesome in what you do ! Your energy makes these learning videos interesting and that much more fun !!! Heartfelt thanks on behalf of all the kids who are learning from your videos

I actually played this opening in a tournament. At time stamp 1:13 instead of playing Ng1 my opponent actually played Nd4 after thinking for a long time. I happily took his N with my N which landed me in a worse position. I'm waiting for the third part of Rousseau Gambit in which you cover the line where white sacs N on d4....

GM Igor, this is really a deadly opening as Black can be brutal. Thanks for sharing.

I really enjoy your opening tricks and ploys

в конце вариант из перевернутого венского) .. как это часто бывает идеи при схожем построении перекликаются (1.e4 e5 2.Nc3 Nf6 3.f4 d5 4.fe Ne4 5.d3!? Qh5 6.g3 Ng3 7.Nf3 Qh4 8.Nd5 Na6 9.Nf4! Qh6 10.Ne2 +- )

I love it and have to remember these steps to give it a go 😁💪👍

Very informative

I like the way that you demonstrate that the response to a threat is multiple threats back. There's almost always, at my very low level, an emotional reaction to the N fork on c2. Thank you for showing me how I can exploit this.

This looks like the Gambit I'd want to try whenever possible. I kept getting confused mid game with rat formation. But this is pretty clear what the lures and counters are.

Wonderful!

Excellent

The knight moved anticlockwise. I loved it. I defe

After 5…d5, white plays Bb5 and win the game with more active pieces and black has no more traps… White continue with Qh5+ or attack center with c4 then Nc3.
