Best Chess Opening for Black Against 1.d4 | Queen’s Gambit Accepted
Today I’d like to show you how to play against 1.d4 as Black. A lot of the players play the Queen’s Gambit as White (especially after it has gained popularity due to the miniseries), and you can counter them by accepting the gambit after 1.d4 d5 2.c4 dxc4.
This variation works really well, especially in the amateur level because most of them are not familiar with it and don’t know how to deal with it. You can take advantage of that and get a winning position straight out of the opening.
You will learn how to get a winning advantage after the White’s most common responses 3.Nc3, 3.e4, and 3.e3. You will also learn how to play against 3.Nf3, which is what the masters and advanced chess players play.
