Moves:
Playing as black, respond to white’s opening pawn to D4 with pawn to D5. White moves their pawn to C4 and you respond with pawn to e6. White moves knight to c3 and you take your knight to f6. White move their bishop to g5, pinning down your knight. You move knight to D7. White captures your pawn at D5, and you recapture with your pawn, setting up the bait. White thinks they are tricky and takes the pawn on d5 with their knight. You take their knight with yours, sacrificing your queen to white’s bishop. Move your bishop to B4 for check. The only legal move white has is to block with their queen. Take their queen with your bishop for check. White captures your bishop with their king, and you capture white’s bishop with your king. You are now ahead in material and in a better position than white. This is called the Elephant Trap.
