The London System is a very respected opening. With black it is not so easy to trick the white players because essentially they are on an autopilot developing their pieces with d4 Bf4 e3 Nf3 and so on.
The 8-year-old boy inspired by Comedians on Board finds an amazing trap in the London. True, the idea is unsound, but the boy manages to trap his father! The father gives his son an important advice at the end! The son takes it with a smile, happy at having beaten his father!
(4/4) On another note I could do with some tips on how to get a good sleep. It seems like I am a fully fledged insomniac. 😵💫
I was in bed at 1am last night but didn't even manage to get 1 minutes sleep after tossing and turning all night. Been awake for about 40 hours now. 😱

(3/4) I missed one very likely obvious winning move.
Here I played Bg2? but I should just play Qh6!
For some reason I had missed ...Qxh6 Bxh6 ...Nxc3 a3! Which is game over.
In the end I lost 😔 after Johann played excellently.
♟️🔥New pod! 🔥♟️
