Evans Gambit

So today, I will look at the Evan's Gambit. This is probably one of my favorite openings of all time. Not only is it super agressive, but it results in a very sharp game and usually is very short. As you could imagine, like all openings, the Evan's Gambit (Created by Sailor Evans (Random fact lol)) has many lines that could be played. You just need to know a few things.

1. It results from the Italian Game Giuco Piano Variation which I will go over after this part
2. It is scored better than the main lines, so you should always deploy it.

Things you need to know for the actual game:

1. This opening revolves around attacking the weak square, F7
2. Stop the opponent from castling kingside. This means have your black bishop on a3 usually
3. Have your Queen on B3. It supports the bishop on C4
4. Have your bishop on c4 (It should already be there)
5. Remember: DO NOT LET YOUR OPPONENT CASTLE

 I actually will finish this later.
