Ba5 is a strong continuation for black because it helps prevent white’s attack on the center. This time, all of white’s pieces are now further up the board and black’s are not in optimal positions. Black’s king must move to its only square, leading to a beautiful finish by Bobby Fischer. A beautiful rook sacrifice.

Bg5, threatening the queen to move from protecting both f7 and e5, the black knight must help defend f7 since no other piece can. Nd5 Qe6 17.

Queen cannot take the bishop on d6 or it’s mate with Qxf7#. White also cannot retake the bishop on f3 with the queen as the entire attack is lost after dropping the d4 pawn.

Bc4 Bc5 4. b4. If 10…dxe5? The best way now to continue is to check the king, allowing the white bishop to also move. Let’s first look at the logical way to play, which leads to an unclear advantage. Qxf6#.

This is a solid way to play as black, but less common. The black queen must move as it is getting trapped after 15. Everything is almost forced for black. This is such a brilliant maneuver and should not be memorized. 14…Qg6 is met with Qa3, threatening the bishop and the e7 square if the bishop moves. With Ne7, we can already see black’s bishop is out of play, and the queen cannot come to any of black’s king side pawn’s rescue.

As black has not yet defended against our f7 onslaught, we should take this opportunity to create our threat. Another great option is 11. Re1 is imminent, winning the knight as it is pinned. Forking the queen and king.

This, however, leads to 3 attackers on the f7 square.

Let’s take a look at why Qe7 is not great for black with a game by Bobby Fischer and Reuben Fine. Nf3 Nc6 3. Black cannot take the queen on b3, or else he will lose a ton of material as we will see. Bc4 Bc5 4. b4 Bxb4 5. c3 Ba5 6. d4 exd4 7.

Let’s look at the last variation for 5…Ba5. White is planning 11.

Black still hasn’t developed the kingside knight, so there is no castling yet.

Here we have a more standard game where white is down a pawn, up in development, but doesn’t have too much else in way of compensation. Nf3 Nc6 3.

Qb5 Bg6 17.

D4 exd4 7. explanation of the Evan’s Gambit and it is a beautiful way to approach 8…Qf6 in this variation. While white is giving up the pawn again, the threat of an attack on the g7 pawn creates some problems for black. Nf7++ 15. 18.

If for example black decides to defend the f7 square with 12…ne5 then:

We’ll see how this is forced shortly.

Black is up 2 pawns, but will be unable to hold the e4 and e6 pawns for long. O-O d6 8. cxd4 Bb6 9.

1. e4 e5 2. This queen was forced to develop early to save the game.

This will block black’s light squared bishop again as if the pawn were in the way.

Nxh6 Qe8 14. It looks like we allowed black to castle. Nf3 Nc6 3.

We’ll look at the three most logical moves next: Here’s the Notation When Bb6 and d6 are played. The following series of moves are all logical and revolve around trapping the queen.

If your opponent blocks with d6, then we see the main threat white should always have in mind which is Qa4+ or Qb5+, capturing the bishop.

Bb2.

The knight on e7 is limiting the queen to the queenside in the middle of the board so it moves to give the queen more space. Both win material.

Here black can take the knight on c3 in a different variation, but it makes black’s play troublesome.

Ng5 putting another attacked on the f7 square and threatening to take the e4 pawn, opening the discovery attack we mentioned. Despite the bishop and knight not being there, black was unable to castle.

Qh8#, 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3.

If Black decides to take the knight that was developed, then Black cannot easily move.

Qxb7 winning the knight. While white is still down a pawn, this variation is very favorable for white as they are more developed and black is limited where they can move still. Nxe5. The most popular variations of move 7 for black in the Evan’s Gambit I’ve seen are: 1. e4 e5 2. For those players that like to play the Giuoco Piano I highly recommend playing the Evan’s Gambit. However, this opens up the original idea of why the knight cannot hold f7 while the black bishop is on the board. Ba3. Things are a little different this time from our 7…d6 version, but pushing e5 is still the best move here. We would see 16. Because of this, we can see that nf6 is bad for black. However, if you are precise, you can make quick work of your opponent with this greediness, but again you have to be careful.

After white simply develops and creates a threat of moving the knight to d4, black attempts to break up the queen/bishop threat. White must combat this first. Honestly, this is black’s best chance in the Evan’s Gambit if white does not know this continuation.

Black is not only attacking the unprotected e pawn, but he is also just one move away from castling.

8. The main reason is to keep black from castling, but you also develop your bishop.

In this very specific situation, it is alright because this opening puts black in such a position that he can be checkmated. Black accepts another sacrifice to prevent checkmate. The bishop move comes in and the black queen cannot protect both e5 and f7 anymore. White moves away from the f7 square as this variation does its best to distract white from the f7 square.

This variation makes way for the knight to come to a5 to threaten the fork of the bishop and queen if the queen comes to b3 (as we’ve seen it loves to do).

The Bishop on a5 must always be protected by black’s knight on c6. With gambits you usually don’t have a move to waste in the attack.

Kg8 16. It is very hard if he takes the bishop as no moves are great in any way. Black can choose to take the pawn back on d4 with the bishop, but will be met with the following: 11…Bxd4 12.

This variation clearly wins for white so let’s look at the next variation.

Much like other gambits, the Evan’s Gambit gives up an early pawn in exchange for rapid development and a lead in center control. Bc4 Bc5 4. b4 Bxb4 5. c3 Bc5. The black knight cannot recapture or it’s checkmate on h7. White is again putting pressure on the f7 pawn and black cannot castle yet. I may add them in as variations if they prove something in this article wrong. Note that white is down 3 pawns at this point, but has a ton of space on the board.

However, we have better options and black moved to Qf7 with a purpose. Putting more pressure on the f7 pawn. Nxf7. Black’s only option is to accept the sacrifice and open up the kingside.

Checkmate must be stopped, and without the knight on f6, only disrupting black’s own pawns can be the answer. Thus we have the same exact situation as if the bishop had moved to a5 and then b6 on move 7 in the Ba5 variation.

Often in the 7…Bb6 variation, white is waiting to see where black wants to bring his knight, if anywhere at all.

Since the bishop is occupying the a5 square, which is an ideal square for the knight to fork white’s queen and bishop from, the bishop must first move to b6.

Qa4+ attacking the knight.

11. Black will give up the hanging bishop on a5 with Rxe5+! Then 11. Bd5. Let me know your thoughts and if there are any inaccuracies.
