The BEST Beginner Chess Opening [for Under-1600 ELO Players]

Today I’d like to share with you the best chess opening for White that works extremely well up to 1600 ELO level. It is called the Evans Gambit from the Italian Game which happens after the following moves: 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.b4.

The Evans Gambit is very solid, aggressive, universal, and best of all, very easy to learn. Even Garry Kasparov played this opening against Vishy Anand in a classical chess game and won.

And most chess players below the rating level of 1600 are not very good at defense. Therefore, this gives you the opportunity to crush them early in the game.

Below, you can find the variations shown in the video:
