The Scotch Gambit is a great opening for beginners and experts alike. It offers White a rich variety of strategic and aggressive opportunities. Gawain Jones, one of England's strongest grandmasters, is a strong proponent of the Scotch gambit. In this video, we'll take a look at three of his best games in the opening.

Nice little collection of games. Players who are thinking of playing the Scotch Gambit should know that this one line is only a tiny bit of what one has to know but is probably the most recent topical line played by leading players recently. I run into this line playing white rarely online or OTB at the club level (around 1800 and lower).

Small mistake here. In that line with Qxb2-fxe6-Bxe6-Kh1-Qxa1-Nxe6-Bxe3-Nxc7+- After Ke7 it would be a blunder to take the rook. The right continuation for white would be Nxd5-cxd5-Qxd5

I know little about this opening, but I did have a lot of success with the regular Scotch game as a lower rated player. This was very well explained and I might have to look into it deeper. Thanks for the analysis. There is a lot to learn from well annotated games like this.

These videos are so good seriously they inspired me to learn the Kings Gambit. Please do more, like on Hikaru's Kings Indian Defense that would be a great vid.
