Queens Gambit end up struggling

Sort:

Hi I have been trying out the Queens Gambit for the last week and on rare occasions it works a treat, however a lot of the time I get lost just as it goes into the middle game. Generally by getting a piece or two isolated on the  kings side just on the edge of the diagonal pawn structure, or by blacks major pieces penetrating through the pawn diagonal.

Makes life very tough!

I have looked at the various you-tube vids, does anyone know of a middle game clips that are worth looking at?

Cheers

Can you post a sample game that you lost using the QG as white? Since you've been only playing this opening for the past week, losses might be more common than wins but by providing a sample game that you lost, we will be able to help you know where you went wrong and what you should do next time/what some of the main lines are :)
