actually I always felt learning the ruy was better, but kings gambit is interesting. For me the kings gambit is slightly risky to put in the hands of a novice, but I guess it depends on the individual.
is kings gambit best opening for beginners?

Is a kitchen blender the best toy for a 6-month-old child? I think so too.

I'll stand by the recommendation to learn two knights if your a beginner

I think I can make a strong argument for the KGA providing an excellent venue for severe and rapid punishment of deviations from good opening principles.

Not for beginners who don't know how a bishop can dominate a knight or why u shouldn't trade a queen for a pawn

Beginners should play openings according to the general rules of development & not worry about learning variation. They should spend more time learning tactics & basic endings. Most beginners don't lose games because they weren't up on opening variations. They lose by overlooking simple tactics or because they are clueless in the ending. Work on those areas first; openings aren't going anywhere.
No because its the sharpest opening where you play with weaknesses from the start. You should look to play it safe, with kings gambit its like you are saying to your opp i am better player and i am gonna win.
i think so
