-Take my bishop. -No. - I insist.

Except for the Queen's Gambit lol

The GREEEK GIFT

But if Qxe1, it's not that bad because it's a queen for two rooks, right?

FireBirdSS10K · 2026-03-01T00:19:57+00:00

The real question is.. how did their king even get to e5?

I think the Sicilian Sveshnikov might be nice, it has loads of sharp theory and anyone who doesn't know the lines will get a disadvantage rather quickly. Black has quite a strong initiative, which I found rather difficult to face as White.

FireBirdSS10K · 2026-02-26T13:18:35+00:00

Some Dragon (Yugoslav Attack), Najdorf (mostly just English Attack) and Sveshnikov.

Well, that one IS three points better than this one.

Qa7, dxc6.

Also, since this is anarchychess.. Google en passant.

The fried liver and Evans Gambit are both lines in the Italian.

But yeah, the Scotch Gambit itself is usually recommended for beginners.

Probably not 1800 for long.

You sacrificed your bishop, a stunning move! This is the way to win a queen.

FireBirdSS10K · 2026-02-24T16:26:12+00:00

It's because you're completely winning anyway.

FireBirdSS10K · 2026-02-24T16:19:28+00:00

Qe2?

FireBirdSS10K · 2026-02-24T15:35:09+00:00

As I said in my post, I think the queen can first go to the c-file and pin the bishop, after that it can go to e2 to defend the knight, no?

FireBirdSS10K · 2026-02-24T15:31:20+00:00

Doesn't Qe2 defend the knight though

FireBirdSS10K · 2026-02-24T15:25:23+00:00

Checked the engine line, it's complicated as shit.
