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

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.

Hello fellow Indian
tried that King-side attack from Black several times before giving it up. They never go into the lines here. (But I have gotten some great ideas from this channel.)
I love your cat.
Flipping back and forth between black and white perspectives. Awesome.
wow…every video has such great information… And then I go and get confused and lose Thank you
Fantastic lesson. An eye opener. Thanks!
I'm completely new to chess. This video was very helpful in showing some of the options that black has available to play.
Milllions of thanks for these lessons. They are really magnificent.

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

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).
Thanks for posting this video! I have fallen for a few of these. Never again!

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?

Iv been watching so many of your videos as much as I learn from them! But I often wonder. The reason I started playing chess was to sharpen my thinking. But listening to other peoples idea my gameshave become all about winning rather than sharpening my mind. Now I feel like im running a script!

Fwiw I find that studies and puzzles keep me sharp. This is opening theory and you can learn the hard way by making the mistakes and then finding the mistake, or you can learn from other people's mistakes.
Great 👍
You analised position that could only occured if black was first to move, Count the numbers of moves for black and white for position at the start of analysis. You said that white had extra tempo, but it is obvious in simetric game that black had extra tempo
2:11 if this is a mistake, why stockfish advises that Nxe4 is the best move for white?
C3?
in ex no.2 it is not posible after black play the move g5 white simply play pawn to g4 ? it looks that move stops the attack.
c3 would be the highly recommended move.
In the first example, if he pushes your bishop with his pawn with h3? trade bishop for knight? then his queen is eyeing down your f7 pawn... what is the best response for this when you cannot simply castle next move?
Nice video

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.

Hello , i really need help. Since i play the stafford gambit i mostly end up in a russian game three knights if the opponent does not go for the kings pawn. 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??
Black launches a kingside attack with h6!

Sir . How can I beat 1700 rating players. ??
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?

Hi tom! A knight is worth more than two pawns so most would not make that trade unless it was part of a mating sequence.

No, you want to maintain the pin on the knight, so white can't move it without significantly weakening their king side (by playing g4)
At 4:14 why dont you just take e5 with the knight and turn that trap around on him. Ne5... Nxe5. d4 ???
Thanks men.... You're smart. You studying error??
Move does work
1:51 At this point what if white plays knight to g5 instead of the other knight to c3 threatening to fork your queen and rook? How do you respond? There is no good way to prevent that.

What if after Bh5 he goes g4?
In your first error with the pawn double attack in that position before the knight takes the sacrificed knight the bishop smartly goes down and calls check then you take the knight on c4 would like to see you look at that as that is what I do when they play that move and I dominate. Btw I've watched your videos since 2015 and are easily my favorite.

My issue is they never leave the queen in the pin😂 Like… Never
Meanwhile when ever you play these black lines... Whites bishop always takes the Kings Knight instead of stepping back and ruins your game plan.
