You'll need to lose a lot more than 7 times... As Levy shows in the video this opening is designed for beating players 800+ points weaker than you.

For videos like these when you're explaining theory or the game, keep the bar open so players like me could really understand just how much better or how much worse a position is

I've mained the danish gambit up to 1800 as a player so it's fun to see it being covered - i still learnt something in the declined variations that i didn't know! Anyway, i wanted to point out in game 1 i believe the theory is to take with the c-pawn. black can very easily blunder his bishop but whatever he plays it's pretty good for us

Hey Levy these videos are really helping me improve my game. I fell out of touch with the game for a long time after learning just the basics but since I have been back at it during the pandemic, I had really been struggling. Your videos really covers the basic principles very well and I finally hit 700 playing the Danish Gambit. Just wanted to say thank you.

Thank you so much for this video! I have been playing the Danish almost every day for 5 minute games and have seen a lot of different defenses. You have enlightened me to several new attacking moves

Hey Gotham I’ve been getting into chess again and love watching your opening and mid game theories and since watching I’ve gained 200 points! Your the best teacher I’ve seen for chess. Keep up the amazing work

These opening and live game videos have to be my favourite Gotham Chess videos. Thank you Levy

Thanks for the course, Levy! As always with me, this backfired BIG TIME but I really love the effort on your part 🙂

Hey Levy, good video! You told at the beginning there is a video of you teaching the Scotch, but I couldn't find it. Well, thanks for this one, you and John Bartholomew are making a great job here on KZread.

Thanks for sharing this. I tried playing a few games against 1400s and they went very well. I was expecting a difficult learning curve with a opening that sacrifices so many pawns, but the positions it leads to feel really logical to play.

Thank you levy for another daily upload much appreciated! Keep being awesome!!

Fun Fact: 16:18 Instead of Bb3, few people can Bxg8 Rxg8 and Qh5 to double attack bishop on a5 and the pawn on h7.

Wow. Watched the first five minutes. Paused to go try it out. Crushed my first opponent with a super satisfying checkmate from clear across the board. Danish gambit is here to stay in my arsenal... Thanks for the video!

Never clicked a video so fast. The Danish was my favorite opening when I first started playing, but only ever got to play Bxb2 a few times. In my experience, below 1000 the vast majority of opponents were too scared to take the 3rd pawn, tho they don't know exactly why it's scary

I would like the Nimzo-Larsen to be covered at some point. It's my favorite opening and would like to be taught extra theory.

Have been suggested by youtube a week or two ago and no KZread algorithm suggestion has been this spot on. Great content! Thank you for your service.

Thanks this really helped. I’m really enjoying the rapid development the danish offers

I love the danish gambit. It destroys novice/intermediate players unfamiliar with this and also actually works well against higher level AI opponents.

**plays & loses as black 3 times a row while waiting to crush with the danish gamit**

Another awesome video! Can't wait to play it!!

Went out and tried this and checkmated in 12 moves! What a great opening. Fairly strong player (1500) compared to myself as well. Amazing video!

This gambit is awesome

I'm ranked in 16-1700's with no studying or anything and have hit ceiling. I can't seem to break 1800. So finally I decided to have a look online and stumbled across this video. I gave it a whirl and instantly my oponent (ranked 1548) did this. I guess it's not the expected moves someone at say 1200 would make and not the most technically proficient a master would make. I thought I'd made a massive balls up on move 8, but it paved the way for one of the weirdest mates I've ever made. Using only a knight, how bizarre! 1. e4 e5 2. d4 d6 3. c3 f6 4.

I know this video was months ago but it has helped me move from 680-830 in Blitz. Having open boards/positions where you are more familiar with the lines just puts players at my level in very difficult positions. Most games, when accepted, end in wins for me.
