Let's learn the Danish Gambit! You will sacrifice a pawn, and then another one, and then ANOTHER one. Yes, a 3 pawn sacrifice in your first 4 moves. In return you'll get a huge attack on your opponent. Let's begin with moving the King's pawn to e4.
Now for pawn sacrifice #1. Pawn to d4.
Remember, these are sacrifices! So we don't take back. Now for pawn sacrifice #2, pawn to c3.
Now for pawn sacrifice #3: bishop to c4.
OK, we lost 3 pawns in 4 moves. This is like shooting yourself in the foot 3 times at the start of a marathon. But it turns out that when played right, our foot with holes in it is faster than our opponent's. Bishop takes b2, setting up 2 extremely powerful bishops along the diagonals, piercing our opponent's position..
Black is giving us a check right away. Let's use it as an excuse to develop another piece with knight to c3.
Now we get to set up a powerful attack. Queen to b3 both attacks Black's bishop and sets up a battery on the f7 pawn.
Um, hello? Black just hung their bishop. Queen takes on b4.
Well that was easy.
Black took our knight, so it's best to take back with our queen here, setting up a strong attack on the dark squares. Queen takes c3.
Let's continue developing with knight to f3.
Now is a good time to castle kingside ourselves.
Checkmate in 1: can you find it? Yup, it's queen to g7.
Oh hi there mr. king.
OK this is going to sound crazy but let's play yet another gambit. Let's develop our knight from g1 to e2 losing our e4 pawn.
Now we can play queen b3, attacking Black's bishop and setting up our strong battery.
In this case, let's take with our bishop to keep the threat on both the f7 and g7 pawns.
This is just a brutal position for Black. Take a moment and look at the board. All our pieces are out, and pointed directly at Black's weakest pawns. From here, we can simply castle kingside.
How does Black even play this position? It is impossible. The computer thinks that despite being a few pawns down, our position is so good we actually have a +3 point advantage. White wins over 80% of the time from here.
Black is trying to catch up in development. Let's not let them. Pawn to e5 kicking away the knight.
This was Black's only move. Let's take their knight with pawn to f6.
OK now we trade queens! Queen takes d8. This makes black lose the right to castle.
Let's continue with our pawn attack. Pawn takes g7.
Black totally forgot about our bishop on b2! Bishop takes g7 and the game is essentially over.
Let's toss in a check because why not. Bishop to f6 check.
Black's position is just destroyed. No two-ways around it. Good job.
A blunder from black! Can you find the best move? Hint: Queen takes h5.
Well done! Black really did not want to move their knight back, and for that they just lost the piece altogether.
