	Wing Gambit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In chess, Wing Gambit is the name given to the branches of several openings in which one player gambits a wing pawn, usually the b pawn (see algebraic chess notation).
		There are two Wing Gambits in the French Defence, 1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.e5 c5 4.b4 and 1.e4 e6 2.Nf3 d5 3.e5 c5 4.b4.
		Even rarer is the Wing Gambit in the Bishop's Opening, 1.e4 e5 2.Bc4 Bc5 3.b4, which has some resemblance to the Evans Gambit.

	Smith-Morra Gambit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In chess, the Smith-Morra Gambit (or simply Morra Gambit) is a gambit against the Sicilian Defence distinguished by the moves 1.
		In exchange for the gambit pawn, White has a piece developed and a pawn in the center, while Black has nothing but an empty space on c7.

	Gambits
		A gambit is when one side offers the other the opportunity to obtain a material advantage in return for some kind of compensation.
		This is an attempt to improve on the King’s Gambit by delaying the sacrifice of the f-pawn for one move.
		This is the poor cousin of the Göring Gambit which in turn is the poor cousin of the Scotch Gambit.

	Four Gambits to Beat the French
		Four Gambits To Beat the French by Tim Harding is the latest Chess Digest publication and, like the Silman Sicilian book I discussed in a previous review, it is physically of a much higher standard than works from this publisher were a few years ago.
		Anyway, to return to my point, it is not always clear how ultimately effective these four gambits seem to be, especially as they are gambits for White, who at the very least doesn't want to emerge from the opening with a disadvantage.
		Regarding the Winkelmann-Reimer (probably the best of these gambits), he says: "I think the WRG is perhaps objectively unsound...," but that it's a "better practical chance than most of White's sharp alternatives to 4.e5," which is not saying much.

	See If You Can’t Lockdown that Gambit
		The Gambit deck, while Joey made it sound simple to build in his Gambit Article, is actually one of the harder deck types to construct and win a majority of the time with.
		As discussed previously a gambit deck is based around a certain combo and this combo usually doesn't develop until the late game (8 or more turns).
		When you draw your initial hand you are going to want to keep all the Peace on Naboos and Lull in the Fightings that you draw, seeing that they are a major part in your gambit combo.

		Wing on Wing's title derives from a sailing term but also might describe the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles, home of the city's Philharmonic, for which it was written.
		The work moves to an adagio in the low registers of horns and tubas signaling the arrival of sleep only to be blissfully interrupted with the rise of the colorful sun announcing day with ascending brass themes, artfully unresolved as befitting the unknown that accompanies dawn.
		The term 'wing on wing' is taken from the nautical term of opening the foresail and mainsail to maximum amount of surface of capture all of the wind available.

		You could also try the good old King's Gambit (or the related Vienna Gambit), the Scotch/Goring/Danish Gambits (vaguely similar), the Wing (as an alternative to the Smith-Morra against the Sicilian), and the Milner-Barry (against the French defence).
		I'll make one exception to the latter: the Benko Gambit is a pretty good line: not 'sharp' exactly, but one that gives Black a clear line of play to pursue, for the cost of a pawn.

	The West Wing: Third Season Quibbles
		Government Executive Magazine's West Wing Watch says "President Bartlet had a little problem with the derivation of the term "red tape," saying it comes from Civil War veterans' documents being bound in red tape.
		The Evan's Gambit, however, can't be identified until seven moves have been made (four by white and three by fl) which Toby correctly alludes to by saying 'I moved my pawn'.
		they do proceed to play the opening seven moves of the Evan's Gambit (which could not be forced by Barlett alone, Toby must make the appropriate moves in response...but he suggest that he didn't even know this opening existed!)." Lorne also sent the link to more information about this gambit.

		However, as I stated in the previous article, the main difference between my opening and the Sicilian Wing Gambit is that the e-pawn is still on its original square.
		Once again, note that since since the e-pawn is on its original square, this is no longer a Sicilian Wing Gambit, but an independent variation.
