I can't believe this opening trap actually worked this well

Been researching a lot of traps in the opening, most of them rarely work but this one did like a charm

Move 10. Nf7+

However, I don’t approve of such a line for White.

Move 2. exd5 is Killer move!

The Scandy is bad!

The effectiveness of an opening trap in various scenarios can be surprising. A well-executed trap not only captures attention but also encourages engagement, making it a powerful tool for storytelling or presentations. The key lies in its ability to draw the audience in, making them eager to see what happens next. This technique can enhance suspense and intrigue, leading to a more compelling narrative.

If you are white, actually you could fork his king and queen in step 10 to step 11

And you were trying to the Intercontinental Ballistic Missile Gambit (Don't know if there are wrong spelling)?

Ah yeah I missed that one, was focusing on any counter attacks he might have but that would have really ended it. He resigned at that point but computer evaluation was +10.4 with that queen fork Nf7+ vs +7.59 for c4

I was looking for him to play the Caro Kann or Scandanavian so I could do this trap, the computer refers to it as "Reti opening: Tennison Gambit". I'll have to check out the intercontinental ballistic missile.
I got checkmated in 8 moves by the Englund gambit and ever since then I've been learning all the traps I can.

Yes I can't believe I missed Nf7+ lol

Oh, pish-posh. The Scandi isn't a bad opening.

It works just fine all the way up to the 2100s. Most people don't bother learning how to play against it.

I am so sorry High Level Chess players fooled you into believing the Scandy is good.

Allow me the opportunity to be honest with you and tell you the truth.

The Scandy is bad and hopefully you can learn to play some other Opening before it ruins your chess career.
