It’s a powerful trap that most players are unaware of, and let’s explore this tactic. Let’s see how to respond to the most common 1.e4 e4 d5 2. exd4 Nf6 After White takes on d4, now you play Nf6 instead of taking the pawn directly with your queen. Preparing to recapture with the knight. 3. Nf3 Nxd4 4. Nxd4 Qxd4 Most of your opponents will play Nc3, and now you can recapture with your knight. For some strange reason, the overwhelming majority of people take on d5, but this move is actually not the best move to play because it helps black to develop their queen. Most of your opponents will capture on d5, and you can happily recapture. Now, you have your queen centralized, and White cannot attack it anymore. Therefore, you already have a little bit of an upper hand here. 5. d4 Nc6 Now, here White may play either Nf3 or pawn to d4, and it may lead to the same position. Let’s say they start off with pawn to d4, and that gets into this forced variation where you play knight to c6, and White goes down the path of a quick loss, which we certainly appreciate. Now, you double attack this pawn on d4 with your queen and knight, and therefore, they defend it with Nf3. 6. Nf3 Bg4 7. Be2 0-0-0 Now, you should play Bg4, putting pressure along this diagonal. Therefore, they naturally neutralize you by playing Be2. You can castle queenside. The pawn on d4 is under attack once again because you added the rook, and now you put stronger pressure on the central pawn, so they’re going to play pawn to c3. 8. c3 e5 9. dxe5 Now, you break through in the center with the move pawn to e5, attacking this pawn once again, maybe also ready to push the pawn forward and attack the white knight on f3. It’s so annoying to White, and usually, your opponents take on e5. They certainly expect you to recapture somewhere there, trading queens. And after that, White’s position is more or less fine. 9…Qe4! But instead of that, there is a move that most players are unaware of and not ready to face, which wins the game on the spot. It’s crazy! It’s the move Qe4. So, instead of trading queens, you slide your queen to the center of the board; and all of a sudden, you have a winning game here. Your rook opens up and hits the queen. Your queen here on e4 does a great job pinning the bishop, and it looks towards the white king. 10. Qb3 Nxe5 Now, the immediate threat they have to parry is Rxd1, winning the queen. So, in most of the games, they move their queen away to b3. If they play any other move, it doesn’t change a thing. Your point is that on the next move, you recapture on e5 with the knight. And if you look at this position, it’s quite clear that Black is winning here. 11. Nxe5 Qxe2# Also, why can’t White castle? Because if they do castle, you can just win the bishop on e2. So, they can’t escape that easily. If not, you’re going to just take on f3 on the next move. And, at the very least, you’re going to destroy White’s position and win a pawn. But it could be that you can just win the game as well and checkmate White. And if they decide to trade the knight here on e5, all of a sudden, instead of recapturing, there’s Qxe2; boom, checkmate!
