CHESS OPENING: ELEPHANT GAMBIT!!!!
For those of you who play chess (I am assuming not a lot of you), I feel like sharing this opening (those who don't know how to play chess, you can ignore this post):
ELEPHANT GAMBIT!!!
1. e4 e5
2. Nf3 d5?!
Opening masters will say this isn't a good opening to play against the e4-Nf3 set-up. This is called the Elephant Gambit.
3. exd5 e4
4. Qe2 Nf6
5. Nc3 Be7
The e-pawn is really hanging, so black doesn't have any defense for that pawn, except:
5...Qe7
6. Ng5!! And white has a much better position
6. Nxe4 0-0
7. Nxf6 Bxf6
8. d4!
Opening the c1-h6 diagonal for the bishop to protect against the X-ray attack Re8.
8...Re8 (black doesn't really have anything else to do)
9. Be3 Qxd5
10. Qd2 Giving space for the f1-bishop
10... Bg4
11. Be2 Nc6
12. c3
And white has a near winning (if not, winning) position because of his central pawns, extra material, and everything.

I went on Chessbase, took a screen shot, photoshopped it so it only showed the board, then put it on the internet, copyed the URL, and paste it in the photo URL upload thing.
