Let's say you start playing a chess game: e4, e5. Suddenly, you realize that you are in a bad position. You keep on playing. The position gets worse until finally, you resign. You did not make any mistakes or blunders in the game, but why did your game get so frustrating? It is most likely because you did not use the correct opening strategies. If you do not know what opening strategies to work on, this is the perfect study for you!

Also, do not forget to give this study a ğŸ’œ when you leave, because the more likes we get, the more chance of learning there is. ğŸ˜Š

I hope this study will improve your games! } *

{ Now,this Opening comes with a disclaimar:
THIS MAY GO AGAINST THE BEGINNER'S CHESS FUNDAMENTALS.
But, where you may think of this,remember, you have gto sacrifice a few things for the greater good.In this case,your king safety.Let's start! } 1. d4 { The opening starts with d4,d5 and then develops into a great positional play. } 1... d5 { Here,Queen's Gambit is one of the most popular AND played lines. If you want to go straight on the attack,this opening is for you.Study coming soon. } 2. Bf4 { Computer shows -0.1 at starting,but do not fear. this will slowly change. This may go against :Develop knights before bishops.But remember the disclaimer from the start of the study. } 2... Nf6 3. Nf3 { Hey I forgot to tell ya!
