    0:30 in this position, there is a line that i play often if the opponent plays 4...Bc5 5.b4 Bb6 6.b5 Na5 7.Bxf7+!! Kxf7 8.Ne5+ and after 8...Ke8 there is a checkmate in a few moves. The line is not forced, there are several ways for black to avoid it, but once you hit them with the bishop sacrifice you already have a nice practical advantage, especially if they take it.

    JL and Italian are just variations on each other. Both give a good platform to launch attacks and both need a lot of early aggression to avoid tight closed games. The better tactical player usually wins.

    But what if they play a3? Or b3, b4, c3, c4, d5, f4 or Nc3? Those are all the ‘good move’ against e4 c5 and half of them are very dangerous gambit. If you’re avoiding e4 e5 because there’re a lot to remember then going to Sicilian feels like it doesn’t solve the problem. At least there’re only 4 good move for white that you have to know if you plays e4 e5. Not 11 moves like the Sicilian.

    Back in the old days when Stockfish wasnt born yet I played this Evans gambit. After c3 I remember Ba5 to be blacks most common (strong) and aggressive answer, Be7 the solid and Bd6 was a dark horse suggested by a weak chess engine I was using. (Arasan). Many people played Bc5 however which I knew was a mistake actually.

    Grat video! The Fried Liver Attack only occurs after 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Nf6 4.Ng5 d5 5.exd5 Nxd5 6.Nxf7. Only after White's 6th move is it called the Fried Liver Attack. So, players of the Black pieces, don't be so afraid like she says. Just don't play 5...Nxd5. Instead play what she suggests.

    I don't like 1e4 I stopped playing it and went to 1d4 just because you don't get as much variation. 1e4 you have to face sicillians, caro's, scotch gambits, early queen nonsense, scandinavians. 1d4 you either face 2d5, or indian games mostly with london or catalan type systems. 1d4 feels more positional, and solid, e4 is more tactical and your stuff is more open it seems like. I'm only 1200 so IDK anything but that's just been my xp.

    Big difference, in the bishop opening the mainline for black goes c6 with a quick d5, in the italian the knight is on c6 so playing d5 it's not that simple for black (asides from gambiting or tactical motifs)
