У постели больного королевского гамбита

n the below chess video excerpt from the Empire Chess DVD ¨How Grandmasters Beat the King’s Gambit¨, GM Victor Mikhalevski reviews the Immortal Game Anderssen vs Kieseritzky that is a stunning example of what can happen if you are not well-prepared to face the mass complications that arise very early in the game with the King’s Gambit.

This chess opening is extremely sharp and if black is going to play 1. e4 e5 then a thorough understanding of how to defend against the hyper-aggressive King’s Gambit is required.
