Chess Traps #2: Rubinstein Trap - Queen's Gambit Declined

intermediate
ChessNetworkTrapsRubinstein trapQueen's gambit declined

The Rubinstein chess trap in the Queen's Gambit Declined results in white trapping the queen, or at least winning a key central pawn in the middle game against the black side who tries to pick up the bishop pair. The Rubinstein Trap is a trap for white out of the QGD and, in this tutorial, I play through the moves to the chess trick itself while offering very brief tips.
