The Scotch Gambit (1.e4 eS 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 exd4 4.Bc4!?)
is a grand old opening which has faded from popularity
with the rise of the Spanish Game (3.BbS). Nevertheless, it
remains an attractive opening at the club and amateur
level, since it provides good attacking chances and
practically guarantees a small positional edge as well.
In the 19th Century, it was a successful weapon for
Anderssen, Bird, Charousek, Morphy and Steinitz, among
others, and as the century turned Breyer, Marshall,
Schlechter, and Spielmann were among its practitioners.
It was so thoroughly analyzed that it fell from favor for
many years, until Yakov Estrin resurrected it in
correspondence play, and his Soviet colleague Evgeny
Sveshnikov reintroduced it to regular grandmaster praxis.
Tim Harding, in his 1991 revision of a book on the
Evans Gambit-which includes a Scotch Gambit system
against the Two Knights Defense-has helped to
revitalize the opening by discovering many improvements
for White, many original, and some buried in the
literature. I have tried to expand upon his analysis, and
have subjected it to critical review. As a result, I believe
that I have found additional resources for White. In
addition, this book surveys lines where Black does not
transpose to the Two Knights.
But the most important aspect of the Scotch Gambit is
its clarity of ideas, which makes it an opening which is
especially useful to intermediate level players who need a
sound opening with good winning prospects which does
not involve a great deal of memorizing theoretical
variations. This book helps to keep the opening simple by
choosing only the lines for White which fit into the same
conceptual scheme, where recurring positional themes
make it easy to absorb the fundamentals of the opening. I
also happen to think that these lines are the best that
White has in the Scotch Gambit.
This book is designed for players rated 1400 to 1800. I
have tried to include a great deal of explanation and have
extended previously analyzed lines to the point where the
evaluation should be clear to the reader. Many diagrams
are provided to aid the reader in following lines, and I
have tried to avoid extensive embedding wherever
possible.
