ā™› Find the Bishop’s Opening variations shown in the video in this blog-post – https://chess-teacher.com/learn-bishops-opening/

In this video lesson, GM Igor Smirnov provides a complete blueprint on how to play one of the best chess openings for Whiteā€”the Bishop’s Opening. This opening arises when White develops the kingside bishop on the second move, with 1.e4 e5 2.Bc4.

The Bishop’s Opening is highly effective at catching opponents off guard and dragging them out of their familiar opening territory. It also contains plenty of deadly traps, some of which have even ensnared former world champion Vishy Anand and other top grandmastersā€”you’ll see examples of these traps in this lesson.

Youā€™ll learn how to respond aggressively to Blackā€™s most common replies, 2…Nc6 and 2…Nf6, and gain a solid, attacking position. If you’re looking for a reliable and surprising opening for White after 1.e4, the Bishop’s Opening could be exactly what you need!
