THE DAMIANO DEFENCE
The Damiano Gambit
Black left the "Épine Dorsale" to (badly) push his KBPawn a single square in simple defence of his KP - widely regarded as a losing opening.
White's KB3(f3) Knight usually removes Black's KP on K5(e5) and invites capture. A perfectly safe gambit which Black would be wise to reject. W-Alt.
