In this Tricks and Traps Speedrun series, I try to climb the rating ladder while playing tricky and trappy openings, along with an ultra-aggressive style of chess. The goal is to not only entertain viewers, but provide lessons on a fun style of chess which can produce lots of quick wins, cool sacrifices, and brilliant moves.
Instructive chess game with a similar theme to my second game in this Episode (Winter - Capablanca 1919): chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1055995
