Welcome to Winning Chess Tricks, Traps and Gambits! Website
Below you will find chess trap examples from my book: Winning Chess Tricks, Traps, and Gambits!. Also, I've included additional chess traps that didn't make the final book cut and chess traps that I found after the book was printed.
I wrote this book because I was tired of losing games online so quickly! I've been playing chess for nearly 40 years but I was losing my queen and getting checkmated in just a couple of moves! I knew I must be getting caught in a trap!
I started to recognize that different people were playing some the same traps so I decided to write them down and learn how to defeat them. After I gathered information for many traps, I figured I had enough material to share in a book for others to learn as well.
Here are a list of all the chess traps that appear in the book:
- Duras Gambit
- Fools Mate
- Hopton Attack
- Jerome Gambit
- Blackburne Shilling Gambit
- Fried Liver Attack
- Traxler Countergambit
- Fritz Attack
- The Legal Trap
- Magnus Smith Trap
- Stafford Gambit
- Fishing Pole Trap
- Rio Gambit Trap
- Mortimer Trap
- Scotch Game Gambit Trap
- Wing Gambit Trap
- Heisenberg Trap
- Jobava London Trap
- Englund Gambit
- Lasker Trap
- Queen's Gambit Accepted - Old Variation Trap
- Kieninger Trap
- Elephant Trap
The following bonus material and traps:
- The Greek Gift Sacrifice
- Noah's Ark Trap
- Siberian Trap
- Rubinstein Trap
- Tarrasch Trap
- Marshall Trap
I will continue to update the site with more chess traps as I learn them. Feel free to contact or email me your favorite traps at winningchesstraps@gmail.com.
