		<description><![CDATA[After spending some time revisiting From&#0039;s Gambit, I thought I&#0039;d be prepared to play 1 f4 against my roommate. However, instead of playing either the Lasker variation (4&#8230;g5) or the Mestel variation (4&#8230;Nf6), Greg played 4&#8230;Bg4! Faced with this suprise variation and given Greg&#0039;s strength, I crumbled in 17 moves (download this embarrassing game in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[From Bird&#0039;s Opening by Timothy Taylor. Everyman Chess. 2005.
From&#0039;s Gambit is a blunt attempt to refute Bird&#0039;s Opening.

After 1 f4 e5 2 fxe5 d6 3 fxd6 Bxd6, White&#0039;s only good move is 4 Nf3. 4&#8230;g5 is the Lasker Variation and 4&#8230;Nf6 is the Mestel Variation.
Lasker Variation
According to Taylor, this variation is not sound. It&#0039;s a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Much has been said about gambits on this blog in the last few months&#8212;and in general I find myself attracted by the appeal of sacrificing material for positional advantages. There&#0039;s something dangerous and sexy about gambits, and the larger the sacrifice, the more exciting and lascivious the gambit. Honestly, is there any better way to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Chess, says Garry Kasparov in the introduction to his book of analysis covering 1993 matchplay, is a careful balance between two forces.  At its highest levels, well played chess is not holding an equal position, which inevitably leads to a drawish endgame, but rather knowing when and how to imbalance a position; to enter [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hobbs Gambit
While studying Bird&#0039;s Opening (and discussing variations), I ran across this offbeat one, which immediately made me think of Greg. I don&#0039;t think I&#0039;d play it, though, and I doubt he would either, but here it is regardless:
Another aggressive (but much rarer) response is 1. &#8230; g5?!, the Hobbs Gambit, with play usually continuing [...]]]></description>
