Albin Countergambit

Albin Countergambit

The move order 1.d4 d5 2.c4 e5 is called Albin's Countergambit. It is a gambit in the true sense of the word since the pawn is difficult to recover after 3.dxe5 d4. Although sometimes considered inferior, this gambit can't be demonstrably refuted. In reality a prepared Black player can obtain playable positions and score wins! Black immediately dictates the course of action and steers the game toward his type of position! Written by Belgian FIDE Master Luc Henris.
