6. Chess Traps- Lasker Trap

Today we look a chess trap called the Lasker Trap which comes from the Albin Countergambit against white’s Queen’s Gambit. If white is not careful than he can find himself in a lot of pain very quickly and with the help of an underpromotion on the 7th move, black can have the white king running all over the board. It’s a great trap for black.
