Overview
Chess Openings for White: The King’s Gambit with GM Marian Petrov
Bring up the so-called “Romantic Era” and chessplayers will think of guys like Anderssen, Morphy, and Staunton…
They’ll think of swashbuckling king attacks, brilliant queen sacrifices, and beautiful checkmates…
The “Immortal Game”.
But which openings will come to mind?
I can think of only one.
1.e4 e5 2.f4!
The King’s Gambit looks ridiculous to the untrained eye… but was regularly used by Morphy, Anderssen, Staunton, and other great “romantics” to crush their opponents in the flashiest manner possible…
And later even by legends like Boris Spassky and Bobby Fischer.
The truth is, the King’s Gambit strikes deep fear into 1…e5 players as it gives White a strong center, open lines, and attacking chances while leaving Black to walk an impossible tightrope to avoid sudden loss.
If you’re a 1.e4 player who loves to attack, we’d highly recommend giving this opening a run against your most stubborn 1…e5 playing opponents.
And to help you, we’ve brought in a Grandmaster with deep knowledge of the opening.
In King’s Gambit Mastermind, GM Marian Petrov teaches you not just the theory, but also how the absolute legends approached the King’s Gambit so that you can follow in their footsteps and win just as brilliantly as they did.
