🎬 About this video lesson:

Most chess opening traps aren’t special tricks—they’re built from the same recurring patterns. In this lesson, GM Igor Smirnov explains 7 key patterns that power the vast majority of opening traps and appear again and again across different openings.

You’ll learn how to:

Recognize traps before they happen
Understand why traps actually work
Spot tactical opportunities in any opening
Create threats without memorizing theory

Master these patterns—and opening traps become predictable instead of dangerous.
