This is a collection of twelve (12) books from my Quick Chess Lessons series. The Black gambits are Budapest Gambit, Elephant Gambit, Albin-Counter Gambit, Ruy Lopez Schliemann, Benko Gambit, and Latvian Gambit. The White gambits include Staunton Gambit, London Morris Gambit, Queen’s Gambit Accepted, King’s Gambit Accepted, Smith-Morra Gambit, and Scotch Gambit. The question is, “Would you rather be on the White side or the Black side for each particular opening?” I explore wins for both sides in all these gambit chess openings. These games will give you a glimpse of either possibility. I renumbered the 168 total games for this book, but they are the same games as in the original shorter twelve books. I was a USCF Postal Chess Master. I won an International Correspondence Chess Federation Master Class event. I played Board 4 for the USA in the 10th Correspondence Olympiade 1982-84. I was an Expert in USCF tournament play. I played blitz chess in the Internet Chess Club for 22 years with standard, blitz, and bullet ratings all over 2200. My peak blitz rating was 2492 back in 1998. Now it’s 2050. Thank you for buying my books. I hope you enjoy this one! Tim Sawyer
