Hi, they're in this lecture, we're going to have a look at the so-called Noah's Ark trap.

00:08.000 --> 00:19.210
So say your opponents play evil and we play if they play like every you play Nazi sex, they play Bishop

00:19.370 --> 00:19.790
five.

00:20.480 --> 00:24.270
You can actually play a sixth is pretty standard move here.

00:25.100 --> 00:28.340
They can't just simply win a poem just to reinforce this.

00:28.910 --> 00:34.760
And if they take and win a pawn, you equalize with queen defore heads like heads the pawn.

00:35.180 --> 00:37.190
And this position is slightly better for you.

00:37.190 --> 00:44.820
You've gained the so-called bishop power, so that's nothing to worry about if they take on CSX.

00:46.790 --> 00:51.740
And the point here to set this particular trap up, you played Desex.

00:53.240 --> 00:57.410
So this is known as the modern Slyness Defense Stone.

00:57.410 --> 01:00.350
It's been the official the first official world chess champion.

01:00.620 --> 01:06.500
So the modern Steinitz defense named Wilhelm Steinitz now say they played for.

01:07.710 --> 01:10.400
Of to be five should be free.

01:11.320 --> 01:18.720
Here you can set up a rather interesting trap you play against the 1964.

01:20.220 --> 01:27.940
Not 884, it has to be with the night you don't want to give white mice options here, if you take with

01:27.940 --> 01:31.020
the pawns the mistake, you're not really setting the trap up properly.

01:31.710 --> 01:36.720
The time we would like to see friend make it into quite a dangerous gamble, actually, that you don't

01:36.720 --> 01:39.150
want you don't want to have this dangerous combat situation.

01:39.270 --> 01:50.190
So the key point is you take with the night, so they take and now you take Queen takes the fall and

01:50.190 --> 01:52.820
it seems as though you've got some very interesting forcing.

01:53.020 --> 01:56.460
You play C5 and you do you're going to trap this bishop.

01:57.420 --> 01:59.310
You might think, hold on, there's a snake here.

01:59.400 --> 02:00.190
Kings Crusher.

02:01.080 --> 02:01.920
Twenty five.

02:02.190 --> 02:03.000
Oh, look at this.

02:04.330 --> 02:06.930
Have we fallen victim to something here?

02:07.860 --> 02:08.370
No.

02:08.970 --> 02:12.030
We can actually still play VASI for the trap.

02:12.030 --> 02:14.250
The Bishop we play Bishop ESX here.

02:14.820 --> 02:22.890
It protects the rook Apotex f7 they try and keep checking with Queen six check.

02:22.890 --> 02:27.270
But now Bishop these seven and this is a very different situation now.

02:28.740 --> 02:36.900
We just closed the punchline on the bishop with CIFOR, so it's kind of like a Noah's Ark.

02:37.200 --> 02:39.960
Some people fell head looks like Noah's Ark.

02:40.380 --> 02:42.900
OK, so it's called the Noah's Ark trap.

02:43.380 --> 02:46.500
And even some chase monsters have fallen for this trap.

02:46.890 --> 02:50.310
So it's very much worth being aware of.

02:51.030 --> 02:56.220
And, you know, as with all these traps, you know, there are a lot of fun.

02:56.280 --> 03:00.900
This particular one doesn't actually damage your position that much to play.

03:00.930 --> 03:03.960
I mean, your winning bishop for not much say they move.

03:03.960 --> 03:05.890
You just taking the bishop, you just want a piece.

03:05.910 --> 03:07.110
It's a great start to the game.

03:07.770 --> 03:09.630
But does it actually damage your position?

03:09.630 --> 03:12.940
Would I recommend anything that damages your position?

03:13.260 --> 03:14.240
I would rather not.

03:14.250 --> 03:17.880
And I don't believe the modern science is a little bit on the passive side.

03:18.300 --> 03:21.530
But this is actually a legitimate opening to play desex.

03:21.540 --> 03:25.890
It's it has the legitimacy, the Morganstein, it's the fans.

03:26.310 --> 03:29.590
So it's it's when they casually play default, which is pretty tempting.

03:30.780 --> 03:34.500
So you're playing this forcing me to be five and then you're playing 1984.

03:36.840 --> 03:44.430
So, yeah, the unsuspecting opponents does this and they have their bishop trapped, so you don't you

03:44.430 --> 03:47.520
don't go immediately because they're hitting the rock.

03:49.840 --> 03:50.760
You know, you don't get.

03:51.020 --> 03:54.340
You play Bishop ESX, which protects that rock.

03:56.410 --> 03:58.290
That's the key points as well as F7.

03:58.780 --> 04:06.420
And then you withdraw your bishop here and now you close in on the bishop of CIFOR.

04:06.700 --> 04:14.020
So Noah's Ark trap, it's definitely you should be aware of these traps and not fallen into them from

04:14.020 --> 04:15.830
the reverse perspective.

04:17.680 --> 04:24.880
So suggestions, if your opponent plays desexed, don't play these for you.

04:25.510 --> 04:30.520
There are other moves here, lots of other moves you can consider.

04:31.060 --> 04:32.650
Siegfried's as one.

04:32.980 --> 04:37.000
If you're really concerned about the safety of, just play SIFRY as an example.

04:37.000 --> 04:44.630
This is a move and you're always giving a bishop this square setu to go back to if needed.

04:45.130 --> 04:45.730
That's my move.

04:45.730 --> 04:48.700
Moving logically, you can construct a center like 24.

04:49.510 --> 04:58.450
So if you go in with defore, yeah, there is this kind of mechanism here which is unfortunate.

04:59.380 --> 05:04.780
But even in this situation, if you were playing Y in this situation, you can make it into a kind of

05:04.780 --> 05:05.640
gambit here.

05:06.580 --> 05:07.480
That's a bad move.

05:07.490 --> 05:09.430
And so there are a lot of bad moves them taking.

05:09.910 --> 05:15.070
So to really fall into it head on, you know, you're taking on the queen.

05:15.520 --> 05:18.420
You can see that, OK, you're hitting the road, hitting F7.

05:18.430 --> 05:23.350
But they play this just to see from the reverse perspective, they've got the rook protected and then

05:23.710 --> 05:24.670
your bishops lost.

05:24.670 --> 05:27.520
And that's not very good position to have with the white pieces.

05:27.820 --> 05:29.650
OK, so you've seen it from both perspectives.

05:31.360 --> 05:33.940
Maybe that makes it a little bit clearer in some way.

05:34.750 --> 05:40.930
What to avoid, how to play the trap if you're going to be the trapper, the role of the trapper.

05:42.940 --> 05:45.400
OK, so much.
