is a very famous opening helping to control the center. There is a best way to defend and how to use it the right way.
We first have to get why is it so famous and popular.
It is very popular and known as it controls the center of the board and it has some very notorius gambits that can get played on it.
Like the best one being the Englund Gambit. It is very popular because its checkmate in eight I will show how to do this.
What is the Englund Gambit. It is a gambit that sacrifices a pawn.
The reason it is so good is because it allows checkmate in eight and utilizes your own queen very well.
It only works if they take the pawn.
This is how now watch the video.
This works because in end white thinks they want to trade queens but in reality they see checkmate.
When using the Queen's Pawn Opening the ideal is to control the center but not with you king open.
The most common defenses are the Queen's Gambit and the best one being the Englund Gambit.
A lot of times the Queen's Gambit is played it is basically a symetrical defense.
Although the Queen's Pawn Opening controls the center this opening gets a lot of hate for being much more cowardly not willing to attack with your Queen as much.
Here is a video of how it works.
This is obviously not how the openent will play but is a good example of a win with it.
