Are trap games a good plan versus rated chess players or not? A lot of times I used to play trap games in chess; most of the times I won the game. But the my question is this: is it good strategy to play a trap game when facing a rated chess player?
I will assume that a "trap game" is an opening that contains a devastating trap if your opponent plays the wrong move.

What happens if your opponent does not fall for the trap? As long as you can still have a good game, it's ok to play a trap game.
