Nf3 c5 4. d5 b5, although there are around 30 different move orders that can reach the same position. Black immediately plays for the initiative in the game, looking for a win. It is a rich opening with a history spanning over one hundred years, named after the Russian master Benjamin Blumenfeld. It was later played by Alexander Alekhine. This “defense” is closely related to other openings which have been extremely popular in modern times, including the Benko Gambit and the sharp Benoni. The battle for the center begins immediately, and is a fierce fight! It's an ideal opening for club and tournament players because if the opponent isn't familiar enough with it, they can easily go wrong and fall to a crushing defeat. In the Blumenfeld Gambit, Black sacrifices a pawn to establish an imposing center with pawns on c5, d5 and e6. The natural development of the bishops to b7 and d6, combined with the half-open f-file for a rook, tend to facilitate Black's play on the kingside. White, on the other hand, will typically look to counter in the center by playing e4 at some point, while his additional queenside pawn also offers him some initiative on that side of the board. In this video, IM William Paschall takes a look at the Benko-like opening, and, in particular, he focuses on the traditional main line in the accepted variation, as well as some sidelines. With the Blumenfeld Gambit, you will always be one step ahead of your competition. While your opponent stares at the board trying to figure out the next logical move, you will already know the winning sequence and correct plans, paired with flawless execution. You can just relax and enjoy the game… It is a much better position to be in! It not just takes the stress out of your game. This opening preparation gives you an instant confidence booster. ► Corresponding article from this video with extra goodies: *** https://ichs.co/2AfndcX ***** ► Come check out the iChess.net shop, we have the world’s largest collection of chess videos and chess courses: https://ichs.co/iChessShop ********* Other Videos from iChess ********* ► Subscribe to our main Youtube Channel: https://ichs.co/iChSubscribe ► Check out our Master Method video series: https://ichs.co/MasterMethod Check out our most recent video: https://ichs.co/latest-chess-video ********* FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL: ********** Facebook: https://ichs.co/iChessFB Twitter: https://ichs.co/iChessTwitter YouTube: https://ichs.co/iChSubscribe ********* Our Other YouTube Channels ********** iChess en español: https://ichs.co/iChessESP
