Hello everyone!Welcome to another blog!Today you will learn(if you don't know)how to play The Queen's Gambit!

This series will have more parts,each one going on another variation of the opening!



First, let's start with the basics:

What is a gambit?

A gambit is an opening which one of the players sacrifices a piece,normally a pawn,for positional advantage.



Now that you know what is a gambit,i will show you the starting position of this gambit 

Here there are more variations,but today i will show you the main line,where white accepts the free pawn and you get directly back the pawn
There are 2 good moves there,E3 and E4,i personally recommend E4 but both moves are great,as you see there.
I know this wasn't that much,but next time you will learn how to respond when he protects his pawn on C4 with B5.


See you soon!
