These videos explaining traps aren't helpful

I have been watching videos online claiming that making a specific move will win you 80-90% of games, then you finish the video and forget everything you saw, your opponent plays something slightly different and it throws you off, putting you in a losing position. These videos just make you greedy for an early win, and usually put you in a worse position than just developing the knights and bishops in the opening. I have found them to be unhelpful.
