Any move is okay as long as you don't move the non-center pawns...

"... In the middlegame and especially the endgame you can get a long way through relying on general principles and the calculation of variations; in the opening you can go very wrong very quickly if you don't know what ideas have worked and what haven't in the past. It has taken hundreds of years of trial and error by great minds like Alekhine and, in our day, Kasparov to reach our current knowledge of the openings. ..." - GM Neil McDonald (2001)

I started with the Fried Liver attack.

You just dominate the centre and develop your minor pieces .

Stop advertising this site!  It's trash!  It is a rip off!  Each course is way overpriced.

$90 for a 3 hour course on the Benko Gambit

$80 for a 3 hour course on the Maroczy Bind

 

The authors of Chessbase.com videos are more reputable, they include 50 to 200 game databases with them, they are 2 to 3 times longer (5 1/2 to 9 hours), and are roughly 30 bucks each!  The reviews of the vast majority of them are excellent.

 

Stop advertising this ChessMood garbge!  Spamming one forum after another with this trash advertising is unnecessary!  It is also against chess.com regulations to advertise for profit external chess websites!
