  • Chess Openings: Learn to Play the Danish Gambit!
    There are many strong chess openings for white against e5 including the King's Gambit, Vienna Game, Vienna Gambit, Giuoco Piano, Ruy Lopez, Italian Game, Three Knights Variation, Fried Liver Attack, Bishop's Opening, Ponziani Opening, etc. However, in today's video we cover potentially the most aggressive and dangerous chess opening for white against e5 with the Danish Gambit! The Danish Gambit starts off with the following moves:
    1. e4 e5
    2. d4 exd4
    3. c3
    Here, we as white we are offering up a second pawn (and potentially a third!) so that we can gain an advantage in develop, and then use chess opening tricks and traps to win games fast. The Danish Gambit has great chess opening theory, chess opening strategy, chess opening principles, chess opening ideas, chess opening moves, chess opening tricks, and chess opening traps. The Danish is also a good chess opening for beginner chess players, and a good chess opening for intermediate chess players. Do you want great attacking chances? Do you want to checkmate the opponent's king quickly? Do you want to take your opponent's by surprise and have dozens of chess opening traps at your disposal? If you answered yes to any of these questions, the Danish might be for you! The Danish Gambit is a top tier chess opening for white and can help you improve at chess fast. How is this? The Danish Gambit shows not just how to play chess, but how to use chess strategy, chess traps, and chess ideas to your advantage. In this beginner chess lesson, we will cover every major (and more!) variation so that you are prepared for whatever comes your way. There are many chess opening moves that you need to be prepared for, but we will also cover different lines and variations that you can play! For example, if black goes into the Danish Gambit Accepted, we can either play Bc4 (offering up a third straight pawn!) or Nxc3 which still gives us a big attacking edge. This chess opening video was made for beginners so that they can grasp the ideas behind the Danish. We look to cover beginner chess strategy, beginner chess tips, beginner chess openings, beginner chess tactics, and beginner chess traps in this beginner chess lesson. We will look at the Danish Gambit Accepted, Danish Gambit Declined, Danish Gambit traps, Danish Gambit defense, and Danish Gambit theory in today's video so that you are prepared to use tricks and traps to crush your opponents with the Danish Gambit! Whether you are a chess master who has been playing the Danish for years, simply trying to learn some new lines or variations, or if you are a chess beginner who just learned how to play, we hope you enjoy this lesson on how to play the Danish Gambit!

    Got to remember though, that if you aren't a naturally aggressive player, you're not going to stop Black catching up in development. You have to keep finding threatening moves which also don't allow Black to develop as he defends. Morphy for example made it look easy - that was part of his genius.

    Great coverage of an aggressive line. I learned a few lines that have stumped me in the past. I will give it another try now. Well done and thank you. Keeping in the tradition of aggressive King's Pawn Openings, I would love to see your thoughts on the Max Lange Attack sometime. Thanks again, and look forward to the next one!

      @@TheChessGiant I've found that as black I can play the Scandinavian defence with 2.c6 and end up with a similar position to a reverse Danish (the engine calls it a Goring gambit) after 3.Nxc6.

    In my experiance what they all do first after accepting all the pawns, is open up with d6, bring out the bishop and go for the exchange - never know whats best in that case.

      @@TheChessGiant Actually I ment d6 followed by bringing bishop to e6. You mentioned d5 as the only good reply for black, so I asked myself if Im just to blind to see the obvious answer to my problem, sorry if so, but many of my opponents seem to have the same flaw, otherwise they wouldnt play it, would they?
