The King's Gambit is a great club weapon against weaker opponents, but there's a REASON it is so seldom seen at the higher levels of play. White will enjoy some space and attacking chances in the beginning but it is defensible by Black. White's attack has to be as precise as Black's defense. The burden is not completely on Black. If there is so much as a pause in White's attack, it can turn south very quickly and White will soon be regretting all the material he gave up. As Black, I often accept the King's Gambit and I'm surprised to see that many White players do not know the opening as well as they should - especially when the gambit is accepted. It's almost as if they're surprised that the gambit has been accepted since they're mostly used to playing the King's Gambit Declined.
The Kings Gambit doesn't score the best itself but the Muzio variation actually scores solidly even in the few gm games it's played in but you're much more likely to see 3.d6 than you will g5 at that level
@@mopbrothers not really, in most lines White just ends up with a better position not a crushing attack. But the position is better due to central control and the ability to attack, not because of a positional crush. What David says is right though, you cannot play the kings gambit without learning a huge amount of theory, because there are many different lines and you really need to know the right move orders for white or you can lose very quickly. You have to be very precise. The only opening I can think of where you need to be more precise is the Latvian gambit, which is the KG in reverse, and requires near perfect play to stay alive against stockfish.
What you are basically saying is: If you get past that barb wired wall, across the mine field, dodge the aerial bombing, you will finally come to the land of milk and honey :)
Sacrifice your integrity.... sounds like you're the one confused. Nothing wrong with gambits, they're great ways to improve you're attacking skills among other things
I just saw this video for the 1st time today and I tried it on a guy that typically beats me like a drum. I can tell by his reactions he was confused by my gambit moves and he was very quickly in huge trouble after he took my knight. It wasn't long before I was typing GG 😃
I use to play the Muzio, but it's easier said than done that's for sure. The opportunity for it also rarely presents itself. There is actually an amazing game played by naka here on youtube where he plays the Muzio gambit and wins. It's one of the few games I've seen that I'll never forget.
Hello Kevin... thanks for the videos.... please keep them coming.. you are doing a very good job... I really like all your videos... you take the time to show the moves properly without rushing... I like it..
@Shadowboost playing Nc3 is an important move as it allows to connect the rooks, and after black takes bishop and white captures back with his queen and Bg7, white can then play 15. Rxf6 Bxf6 16. Rf1.
Thank you for your great videos I have played my friends including the one that had taught me how to play chess. Using your videos I had won 10 out of last 13 games. Usually it was around 50-50. Putting the kings gambit into my overall play and focused positions have made it easy for me to come off with a strong attack and allow me to apply lots of pressure against my opponents.Thank you very much for not only the opening, But the theory that is behind them. Makes it easy to decide what to do against an uncommon move and stay focused on the main goal of exploiting area to gain control!Thanks again and subbed! *Best I have found on youtube!
don't play the carokann cave man which can sac a rook in about 7 moves or play leela chess which sacrifices pieces just to get them out of the way AND can beat stocklfish in almost every game
I love the King's Gmabit! I'm a mainly 1.d4 player, I love positional chess, my only opening in my repertoire that starts 1.e4 is the KG - I've never played the muzio/double muzio but I'm deffo gonna try this out online before playing it in my club games or tournaments!! Wickid vid!! :)
MVL played it against Nakamura, twice. Won 1, lost 1. Lost one was played yesterday, MVL was in comfortable position but finally lost due to mistakes. Still 1-1.
@mrengler1 yes white still has a great attack. After Bg7, white can now play 15. Rxf6 Bxf6 16. Rf1. Black is not only going to lose the bishop on f6 but he has none of his pieces that can help in the assault from white. Easy win for white.
@Penguinator44 I haven't seen this much but I would recommend just playing d4 and solidify the center of the board. The bishop on d6 will really hurt his development of his queen side pieces while white will start to overwhelm the board with his pieces.
This is my ALL-TIME favourite opening--it is the opening that will keep me coming back and playing chess, no matter what! Peter Millican, one of the best correspondence gurus, had written a treatise on the Double Muzio Gambit which is now unavailable. Luckily, though, I have it, and it includes reams and reams of analysis, finally coming to the correct conclusion that White is pressing for a win in all lines. Steinitz's 9. ...Qf5?! isn't so strong after 10. Bxf4! (and not 10. g4?!) ...TRY IT!
Great video, I like the way You elaborate the moves...The only problem is that NO ONE I face at chess board plays that badly...I ve tried this at least 20 times and not a single opponent followed the suicide moves You suggested, after first 5 moves....like someone already mentioned here, this is only good in bullet/blitz games.
In the last scenario when black moves a knight after bishop C4, bishop should takes on F7 check. The king has to take bishop. Then queen takes pawn on F4 check. No matter where the king goes it's checkmate. Best move for black is an awkward move, knight to H6, protecting F7.
I was in a chess competition the other day. In the games I won, I used a similar opening. I just got my bishop to a2 [after the first few moves] and got my queen to f7. My opponents didn't see that one coming!
10:42 After Bxf4 Houdini suggests Nf6 and gives black a decent edge.(around 1.6 pawns) Also after this, according to the engine the best move is Be5 and after the queen trades I don't find it difficult to play the position with black.
I played king's gambit a lot when I first learned chess,not because it's a sound opening but it had a tendency to throw my opponent off balance.If black wants to save his pawn advantage he loses a lot of tempo.
Ok this doesn't work, I played this against a computer rated 1630, and after king castles, their are several moves which stop this Gambit. 1. Black moves it's pawn to e5 2. Black moves it's pawn b5 3. Black moves it's knight to c6 There are moves after White castles King side, but any of these moves I mentioned stops this Gambit dead. If you are playing someone lower ranked it may work, but..... Trust me, I ran over three different complete games and it didn't work. I've beaten someone with this before, but it's honestly a shitty position.
Thanks Kevin, Actually yours is the name I hate most. My gf's bf's name ~.~ But nice to hear familiar voice amongst chaos of Kingcrusher s and chess.com s. Kudos to Bobby fischer, people tend to stay away from Kings gambit, as he religiously busted it out of business. So, many people are unaware of the damage this line can inflict. Nice work, its appreciated.
14:43 What if black plays Nh6 rather than Nf6? This looks better to me because the knight is defending the f7 pawn but it can't be captured by the queen because the dark square bishop is defending it? If the white queen captures the f4 pawn Black can play Qe7 adding a third defender to the f7 pawn and I can't see white having a insurmountable advantage, Black can aim to castle queenside.
I find it hilarious how the video uploader/narrator can say that Black is going to be "down in material" at around the 9:56 mark. Sure Black is likely going to lose it's Queen, but at that point it has already taken 3 of White's pieces, and can take White's remaining minor piece (the Bishop on d4) as well prior to giving up it's Queen. And while White may be ahead on development and has Black's King out in the open for the time being, Black will still have 6 pieces whereas White will only be left with it's Queen and 2 Rooks. So unless White can continue to relentlessly pursue the Black King and in the process capture more pieces, Black can definitely recover from this position.
The f7 square has a counterpart to it though. The f2 where the white king is defending that pawn. Is that square also a weak spot for white or does the fact that white moves first make it less of a disadvantage?
At 9:45 in this video, you describe how terribly Black can go wrong after ...Qxb2, followed by White's Nc3, QxN - and then you describe White's B-d4 as a good move because Black's "Queen is going to fall". True! But, if Black simply plays ...QxB, followed by QxQ, in my opinion, White has simply given up *too* much material. The _only_ piece Black has lost is his Queen. White is missing _all_ his minor pieces. Both his Knights and Bishops are gone. Yes, White has a lead in development, but I think he is out of quarters, so to speak. Black can slowly ease back into this game and the fact that Black has _both_ his Rooks, _both_ his Bishops, _both_ his Knights, PLUS the pawn advantage - it seems should carry the day.
+David Emerling 10...Qxb2? is a poor move and you will die with a full stomach. That pawn is poison. After 11.Qxf4+ blacks only remote chance is to bring the Q back with 11...Qf6 which will be answered with 12.Qc4 as shown in the video., and black's queen will be lost with white still having many attacks. The line you mention is when black responds to 11.Qxf4+ with 11...Nf6. This move is a blunder. The line my look bad for white, as you noted after 11...Nf6?? 12.Nc3 Qxc3 (12...Be7 and 12...Bg7 are better but black is still losing) 13.Bd4 Qxd4+ 14.Qxd4. That position (which is the one you are referring to in your response) is completely lost for black. White's Q and R are bearing down on f6 with white's second rook ready to come in. The only chance black has involves giving back more material than he already has a lead with.
I saw this as well, no need to try and develop the knight when the bishop is on the long diagonal and threatening the queen, covering the rook, and leaving the white queen free to crash whites party hard. And no, despite the loss of material for white, even giving up the a1-rook, white is going to win since blacks king is out in the open and will have no where to run and hide.
whats the name of the opening were you play e4, e5 Nc3, Nc6 than f4, xf4 but thanks for the video, i like your opening best :) and Kings gambit is verry fun to use in fast games
@concept015 yes you can because you have doubled up the file with the rook and queen and if the queen takes the bishop then your queen takes the queen and black can't do anything about it.
12:32 I think I found a good reply to this: instead of nonsensical Nc6, Black can just go c6, then d6, planning Be6, Ne7 with d5 and castling queenside
After the queen takes the pawn on e5, you can move your rook to the open e file and take the queen which is pinned to the king. I don’t understand why you suggested moving the bishop when there’s a free queen...
i don't get why the Knight moving to G5 is a good move when the black pawn can simply push to H6 and the white knight is done for?( speaking about 1:07 ) seems like a really bad outpost
at 15:00, after black plays d5 and white takes with exd5, why not play Bf7, thereby defending the knight with both queen and bishop. if white decided to sacrifice for example the bishop, the king can just take it with no repercusions. white would be forced to develop further and then black can develop some kind of counterplay. at least from my perspective, but i am a beginner in chess :-)
Hey im still a novice and im trying. I have a question about the move when the Queen goes f3, f4 and take the black pawn and when the black knight is on the f6 square. What options do i have or what is the best move i can make??
When white plays Ng5 can't he lose his piece with f4? King's Gambit is my personal favorite opening but definately not with this variation. I have great chess book with which my father teaches chess almost 2 decades and has created a plenty of champions. It has EXTREMELY agressive variations for this opening and for many other openings as well. Hands down, it's very old but it's great.
10:00 lets say black plays Qxd4, white recaptures Qxd4 and then a development move from black probably Bg7 or Be7 to defend f6, what will white do now? i mean white got the queen and all but lost all his minor pieces, was it rly worth it? and the attack is pretty much over due to f7 been defended by 2 pieces, what will white do now? (and sry if this is a silly question, the answer might be obvious, but im a beginner ;) )
Yeah, it is totally worth it. after 14.Qxd4 blacks position is lost. If 14...Be7 or 14...Bg7 then 15.Rxf6!! Bxf6 16.Rf1 and there is no way to put a second defender to protect the pinned bishop and white has a winning attack. Black either gets mated or gives back more material then he has won.
At first glance it looks bad, but whites queen will eventually take back blacks minor pieces, and if you didn't notice, whites King and pawns can begin to March forward prime immense pressure on black, while his queen and rooks can harass the king with checks.
why not bishop to h6 to defend the pawn? If white then plays d3, queen to g5 takes care of that. Black loses that pawn, but the threat to f7 is over, though black would really want their dark squared bishop in this scenario.
After Bc5+, can you play d4, giving up a pawn in order to activate your dark-squared bishop? I'm guessing so considering how much material is being given up. If anyone is looking for a game where the Muzio Gambit is played, Shirov vs. Lapinski in 1990 is a fantastic miniature to watch.
kevin at 9:04 why sac the knight if feel playing Bd4 right away is better but one thing Nc3 does is it connects the rooks perhaps i maybe wrong but would like to know what's wrong with the move
"Since we are sacrificing a knight and a bishop we might as well sacrifice one more pawn." LOL
The King's Gambit is a great club weapon against weaker opponents, but there's a REASON it is so seldom seen at the higher levels of play.

Lmao kings gambit is so simple to remember stop playing at 800 rating
Agreed. It's a flashy gambit, but if black is able to defend himself and survive it's game over for white. White has to be very smart to win.

Confused and also winning
@@leprisonnier7957 pourquoi t'es emprisonné

Instructive and entertaining video. I've already watched it more than once and expect to revisit.
EXCELLENT KEVIN!!
NO ONE GETS BORED WITH THIS WILD GAMBIT!!
There is no way I'm playing this gambit against a stronger player
Well...okay? It's sound. Only a plus one advantage for black...that's a draw...

@Comosiem only been like 10 days, but yes still alive and making more videos :)
15:09
"Obviously Knight can't come here or the King will be GG"
I wish I had better memory, I find it so hard to remember openings when I play. So many different variations of every opening, makes me dizzy
+BeatBuster Maybe spend some time learning why the moves are made, instead of learning exactly which moves and it will help?
take the time to stop the video. get your old chess board and move the pieces physically. It helps you to memorise rather than just watch the screen
that is exactly what I did. It helps so much actually looking at it for what it actually is. Best advice that I could give someone also!
9:06 Why bring the knight to c3, why not immediately go to d4 with the bishop, seems stronger to me than unneccessary (?) giving away the knight.
"It's just going to be GG..." Hahaha, love it.
Every time I apply this or the Kings Gambit .. they’re moving the opposite side .. and I still end up losing ..
Chris....WHAT'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDD!!!!
Such a strange yet potentially useful opening!
WOW THIS IS A COOL OPENING I'LL CHECK IT OUT ON MY OPPONENTS

This is my ALL-TIME favourite opening--it is the opening that will keep me coming back and playing chess, no matter what! Peter Millican, one of the best correspondence gurus, had written a treatise on the Double Muzio Gambit which is now unavailable. Luckily, though, I have it, and it includes reams and reams of analysis, finally coming to the correct conclusion that White is pressing for a win in all lines.

I tried against free chess app at level 8. Not sure what is the best move against Bh6. I won, but not really satisfied with my game. Any pointers to play Muzio Gambit better?
1. e4 e5 2. f4 exf4 3. Nf3 g5 4. Bc4 g4 5. O-O gxf3
6. Qxf3 Bh6 7. d4 Nc6 8. Qh5 Qf6 9. Nc3 Qxd4+ 10. Kh1 Qxc4
11. Bxf4 Bxf4 12. Rxf4 d6 13. Ra1f1 Ne5 14. Nd5 Kd8 15. Qg5+ Kd7
16. Qg7 Ng6 17. Rxf7+ Ng8e7 18. Nxe7 Ne5 19. Nd5+ Nxf7 20. Rxf7+
I know that. But it seems pretty easy to defend. after ...Kxf7, Bc4# Ke8, Qxg4 Qf6,and black seems okay while having an extra piece.
Did Paul Morphy play Muzio Gambit? He played King's Gambit as White. Muzio Gambit is wide field for different sacrifices.
yes. he did. www.chessgames.com/perl/chessgame?gid=1075128
@Shadowboost yeah, i was really confused with Nc3 first. maybe the connecting of the rooks is really important for this attack?
Think you very much
10:37 i recommend pawn g4, your opponent will choose en passant, and you win their queen, with real easy mates on the board
Ok this doesn't work, I played this against a computer rated 1630, and after king castles, their are several moves which stop this Gambit.
1. Black moves it's pawn to e5
2. Black moves it's pawn b5
3. Black moves it's knight to c6

Kudos to Bobby fischer, people tend to stay away from Kings gambit, as he religiously busted it out of business. So, many people are unaware of the damage this line can inflict. Nice work, its appreciated.
@Fenchai23 then you can move pawn to d4, to let bishop open for attack or possibly, move pawn to e5
What about Knight from G8 to H6, to protect the pawn on F7? Isn't that a logical defence?
14:43 What if black plays Nh6 rather than Nf6? This looks better to me because the knight is defending the f7 pawn but it can't be captured by the queen because the dark square bishop is defending it? If the white queen captures the f4 pawn Black can play Qe7 adding a third defender to the f7 pawn and I can't see white having a insurmountable advantage, Black can aim to castle queenside.
I find it hilarious how the video uploader/narrator can say that Black is going to be "down in material" at around the 9:56 mark. Sure Black is likely going to lose it's Queen, but at that point it has already taken 3 of White's pieces, and can take White's remaining minor piece (the Bishop on d4) as well prior to giving up it's Queen. And while White may be ahead on development and has Black's King out in the open for the time being, Black will still have 6 pieces whereas White will only be left with it's Queen and 2 Rooks. So unless White can continue to relentlessly pursue the Black King and in the process capture more pieces, Black can definitely recover from this position.
love this guy
The stunt opening!
Like KG will check out this variation looks interesting to me.....enjoyed the vid
This is awesome.
The f7 square has a counterpart to it though. The f2 where the white king is defending that pawn. Is that square also a weak spot for white or does the fact that white moves first make it less of a disadvantage?
Good review. thanks
At 9:45 in this video, you describe how terribly Black can go wrong after ...Qxb2, followed by White's Nc3, QxN - and then you describe White's B-d4 as a good move because Black's "Queen is going to fall". True! But, if Black simply plays ...QxB, followed by QxQ, in my opinion, White has simply given up *too* much material. The _only_ piece Black has lost is his Queen. White is missing _all_ his minor pieces. Both his Knights and Bishops are gone. Yes, White has a lead in development, but I think he is out of quarters, so to speak. Black can slowly ease back into this game and the fact that Black has _both_ his Rooks, _both_ his Bishops, _both_ his Knights, PLUS the pawn advantage - it seems should carry the day.
+David Emerling Maybe but if if you play bd4 instead of nc3, I think it`s a lot better, what do u think
?
+David Emerling 10...Qxb2? is a poor move and you will die with a full stomach. That pawn is poison. After 11.Qxf4+ blacks only remote chance is to bring the Q back with 11...Qf6 which will be answered with 12.Qc4 as shown in the video., and black's queen will be lost with white still having many attacks. The line you mention is when black responds to 11.Qxf4+ with 11...Nf6. This move is a blunder. The line my look bad for white, as you noted after 11...Nf6?? 12.Nc3 Qxc3 (12...Be7 and 12...Bg7 are better but black is still losing) 13.Bd4 Qxd4+ 14.Qxd4. That position (which is the one you are referring to in your response) is completely lost for black. White's Q and R are bearing down on f6 with white's second rook ready to come in. The only chance black has involves giving back more material than he already has a lead with.
I saw this as well, no need to try and develop the knight when the bishop is on the long diagonal and threatening the queen, covering the rook, and leaving the white queen free to crash whites party hard. And no, despite the loss of material for white, even giving up the a1-rook, white is going to win since blacks king is out in the open and will have no where to run and hide.
5:30 what should white to if black bishop c5, white king h8, and black queen takes the pawn?
whats the name of the opening were you play
e4, e5
Nc3, Nc6
than f4, xf4
but thanks for the video, i like your opening best :)
and Kings gambit is verry fun to use in fast games
@FromMuToYou I didnt say you said that. I'm saying Kevin was wrong about black being forced to lose his queen.
Paul Murphy is the master of this gambit.
I don't understand the NC3 move. Seems like you could just move the bishop to D4 from the start and not sacrifice the knight.
What if at 10:48 the black's knight goes to f6? What now? It definitely losing for white
Actually, never mind ~ there's a mate in three with bishop takes knight after black queen C3-C6 ...
What if instead of defending Black's f4 pawn with Qf6; black defends it with Bh6?
What happens at 11:39 if instead of moving the black bishop to C5 and attacking the King you moved the bishop to D6 to protect the F4 pawn?
@FromMuToYou yeah, but that doesn't mean the black will lose his queen.
what we should do after queen to f3, black plays d6 to free his white bishop?
@concept015 yes you can because you have doubled up the file with the rook and queen and if the queen takes the bishop then your queen takes the queen and black can't do anything about it.
i wish more of my opponents would play this -.-
12:32 I think I found a good reply to this: instead of nonsensical Nc6, Black can just go c6, then d6, planning Be6, Ne7 with d5 and castling queenside
After the queen takes the pawn on e5, you can move your rook to the open e file and take the queen which is pinned to the king. I don’t understand why you suggested moving the bishop when there’s a free queen...
That would be a free rook
0:29 black queen should move h5 checking king instead of taking the pawn
that's opening is real deal
i don't get why the Knight moving to G5 is a good move when the black pawn can simply push to H6 and the white knight is done for?( speaking about 1:07 ) seems like a really bad outpost
denis demonte if you make the knight G5 move the idea is to sacrifice it on f7! ( in some lines )
at 15:00, after black plays d5 and white takes with exd5, why not play Bf7, thereby defending the knight with both queen and bishop. if white decided to sacrifice for example the bishop, the king can just take it with no repercusions. white would be forced to develop further and then black can develop some kind of counterplay. at least from my perspective, but i am a beginner in chess :-)
Because Bf7 is impossible?
Hey im still a novice and im trying. I have a question about the move when the Queen goes f3, f4 and take the black pawn and when the black knight is on the f6 square. What options do i have or what is the best move i can make??
I do this every time in tournaments .. 40% of them fall for it
When white plays Ng5 can't he lose his piece with f4? King's Gambit is my personal favorite opening but definately not with this variation. I have great chess book with which my father teaches chess almost 2 decades and has created a plenty of champions. It has EXTREMELY agressive variations for this opening and for many other openings as well. Hands down, it's very old but it's great.
Let's make sweet passionate love. You sound Russian, I will marry you
Thanks 👍
Welcome 👍
Why would the pawn push up to g5? nobody ever does that
@Penguinator44 I'm thinking d4. I mean it adds another attacker on the pawn and gets ready for the e5 push to get the bishop out of there anyway.
why not move the rook to E4 once queen takes pawn
10:00 lets say black plays Qxd4, white recaptures Qxd4 and then a development move from black probably Bg7 or Be7 to defend f6, what will white do now? i mean white got the queen and all but lost all his minor pieces, was it rly worth it? and the attack is pretty much over due to f7 been defended by 2 pieces, what will white do now? (and sry if this is a silly question, the answer might be obvious, but im a beginner ;) )
Yeah, it is totally worth it. after 14.Qxd4 blacks position is lost. If 14...Be7 or 14...Bg7 then 15.Rxf6!! Bxf6 16.Rf1 and there is no way to put a second defender to protect the pinned bishop and white has a winning attack. Black either gets mated or gives back more material then he has won.
At first glance it looks bad, but whites queen will eventually take back blacks minor pieces, and if you didn't notice, whites King and pawns can begin to March forward prime immense pressure on black, while his queen and rooks can harass the king with checks.
what chess program do u use for ur videos?,.not that i want to make vids too, i just like de way it shows u which pieces it attacks ect ,.thanks :)
Thx for the vid mate. Any thoughts on next moves if at 6:54 white queen declines taking the D4 pawn and goes Qf5? Cheers.
Pawn to d5. How do u deal with this if they do this as u develop the kongs gambit
why not bishop to h6 to defend the pawn? If white then plays d3, queen to g5 takes care of that. Black loses that pawn, but the threat to f7 is over, though black would really want their dark squared bishop in this scenario.
What software to use to mk chess videos on PC? Tried OBS bt it doesn't detect Fritz 13 tho it captures videos in other non Chess games
If Black decline the pawn and instead play Kc3, what would be the best move ?
I just beat my computer at Hard lvl after three days straight of watching your videos without clicking ctrl+z, thnx man :D
After Bc5+, can you play d4, giving up a pawn in order to activate your dark-squared bishop? I'm guessing so considering how much material is being given up. If anyone is looking for a game where the Muzio Gambit is played, Shirov vs. Lapinski in 1990 is a fantastic miniature to watch.
I wouldn't recommend it. Black takes the pawn with check, thus gaining a tempo as well as eyeing the b2 square. Personally I'd stick with Kh1.
what about Be3 Qg7 Q8f4 Nf6 thr is no good continuation for white as black pieces start developing one by one
At 14:50 in the video, can't the opponent always bring his Bishop to g7 adding another defender to the knight on f6?
Is there a move for black in the beginning that can come strong in position after he took white's knight and pawn?
Nice video. ..
kevin at 9:04 why sac the knight if feel playing Bd4 right away is better but one thing Nc3 does is it connects the rooks perhaps i maybe wrong but would like to know what's wrong with the move
