2016 Gibraltar Traps

A big open like Gibraltar is fertile ground for spotting opening traps/disasters. I found a few last year, so I thought I'd go hunting again. Here are a few games from the early rounds where the game was finished almost before it started

In this game White needed to look to the left, and to the right.

Here is another classic, which I am surprised Black did not recognise

Bellon Lopez,Juan Manuel (2376) - Kristinsson,Magnus (1776)

Even at 2300 some players forget to look at *all* checks and captures
