Opening trap

The king dragged to e6 — on move 7

Why you never take with the knight on d5 · Two Knights Defense (C57)

Black

White

By move seven, Black's king is standing on e6 — in the middle of the board, in the middle of the game. This is the Fried Liver Attack, and if you play the Two Knights Defense, this video might save your next ten games.

The board stops before the key move — you'll have to find it yourself.

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.
