Hello chess friends and welcome back to our "Queen's Gambit Declined" series. In this series I will show you the most important strategical ideas and tactical motifs of the Queen's gambit declined opening and we are continuing the series with a new variation, the very sharp and tactical Albin counter gambit. In this video I will show you the common mistakes that are made by black in this opening


Queen's Gambit Declined Theory
The Albin Countergambit is a chess opening that begins with the moves:

1. d4 d5
2. c4 e5
and the usual continuation is:

3. dxe5 d4
The opening is an uncommon defense to the Queen's Gambit. In exchange for the gambit pawn, Black has a central wedge at d4 and gets some chances for an attack. Often White will try to return the pawn at an opportune moment to gain a positional advantage.
In the Encyclopaedia of Chess Openings the Albin Countergambit is assigned codes D08 and D09.

Although this opening was originally played by Cavallotti against Salvioli at the Milan tournament of 1881, it takes its name from Adolf Albin, who played it against Emanuel Lasker in New York 1893. Though it is not played frequently at the master level, Russian grandmaster Alexander Morozevich made some successful use of it in the 2000s.[1]

Main line: 3.dxe5 d4 4.Nf3 Nc6
The main line continues 4. Nf3 Nc6 (4...c5 allows 5.e3 because Black no longer has the bishop check) and now White's primary options are 5.a3, 5.Nbd2, and 5.g3. Perhaps White's surest try for an advantage is to fianchetto their king bishop with 5.g3 followed by Bg2 and Nbd2. Black will often castle queenside. A typical continuation is 5.g3 Be6 6.Nbd2 Qd7 7.Bg2 0-0-0 8.0-0 Bh3.
