5 best chess openings

I did some research and found 5 chess openings that I think are the best. So I hope you find this interesting because I spent many hours on this, enjoy.

1. THE QUEENS GAMBIT

This is probably the most well-known chess opening thanks to NETFLIX. The queen's gambit is a great chess trap and a great way to get the game going, even if you are not the best chess player. In fact, this opening is great for all skill levels.

2. THE KINGS GAMBIT

This move is similar to the queen's gambit except the king's gambit is not as common. This is probably one of my favorite moves of all time. This move is also great for all skill levels. Not a lot of people are going to expect this move from you so this is a great move if you want to throw somebody off.

3. THE NIMZOWITSCH-LARSEN ATTACK

The Nimzowitsch-Larsen Attack lets players put their dark-square bishop on b2 early in the game, which helps to control the center and also gives White a dangerous weapon against Black's kingside, especially if they castle on that side.

4. THE  SCOTCH GAME

The opening isn't without its issues, as it swiftly releases the tension and can make White's e4 pawn vulnerable later in the game. Still, it's a great opening to learn for those who want to gain early space and avoid all of the theory that comes with playing the Ruy Lopez.

5. THE ITALIAN GAME

The Italian Game is believed to have originated in the 15th century, making it one of the oldest openings still commonly used today. White and Black both get some control of the center and open up space for their queen and bishop with the e pawn push. Both develop their knights as Black defends the e5 pawn that White is threatening.

So what did you think? Feel free to leave a comment.
