seen alot of ppl this past week try to open a game with a bunch of traps example i lead e4-b5 the hanging pawn i take with my bishop. b5-he follows bishop b7 attacking my e pawn, i go knight c3 defending it, he pushes pawn f5(apparent pawn sacrifice to follow to g2 and win my rook if i take). its easily defended and i win a pawn and have better central control.
anyways on topic, since i got to the 1400s ive seen alot of it. its stupid. Ppl are bringin out there queens early and going down pieces early, moving same pieces lots with first 5 moves, bishops before knights, breaking all rules i was taught when i first began studying chess. Do any of you have success with traps like this outside of playing 1200s?
