At 5:36, there was also Queen to e6#, besides Queen c7# as played by Morphy in the game. So early in the game and white could choose how to checkmate his oponent! I have always been saying that the real GOAT was Morphy, and only then Fischer, Magnus, and Kasparov, as Morphy was the only one who didn't have such great predecesors and such plathora of chess material to learn from as the latter 3 had, not to mention computer engines that can give you and teach you the best moves from any given position, live coverage of chess tournaments with grandmasters analyzing every move, strategy, etc.

The King's Gambit is the best opening for intermediate players to improve at tactics and aggressive play in my opinion. You're guaranteed to get it on move 2 if your opponent plays e5 (unlike the Evans gambit for example where there are so many ways to avoid it), the games are very sharp, you have a strong center, there's potential for sacs, it's double edged, you have to learn to make concessions like Kf1 to keep the attack going. Incredible opening.

When I was 12-13 yo (circa 2000), I learned chess and became obsessed with it during the summer months along with my best friend. We ended up joining a local chess club, where I played "home tournaments" and got rated at 1400. My favorite opening with white was the King's Gambit, I had excellent results with this one and even seasoned casual players were caught off guard by this one. The speed at which you can gain positional dominance with this opening is quite impressive.

Thank you for another great video! My only problem is that the last 7 times in a row that I played the King's Gambit as White, Black declined the gambit. In Morphy's day, I've heard that it was considered cowardly to decline a gambit.
