Chess Opening Series – King’s Gambit – Bishop’s Gambit

Hi, Welcome to my new course on King’s Gambit – Bishop’s Gambit. With the little-explored third move Bc4, white players can pose different challenges for the black players to solve. Since in this line(3.Bc4), very few games are played by Grandmasters and other players around the world, most of the games in this series are played either against computers with human input (or) myself playing someone in online chess server. In recent times, Computer evaluation came under heavy pressure after the crushing defeat of Stockfish at the hands of Alpha zero(NeuralNetwork based Engine). After Alpha zero, with the arrival of its replica Leela zero(NeuralNetwork based Engine), soon traditional computer-based evaluation will be challenged. However, it should be noted every AI engine resembles closely to humans. So it is vital to reevaluate chess positions and Bishop’s King’s gambit is one of the perfect candidates.
