Learn the lines of the guide

Follow eight guide routes: four from White's side and four from Black's. Build the accepted-line battery, punish the compromised c3 capture, spring the Qa4+ fork, then study the main ...d5 break, Anderssen setup, Lasker queen trade, and declined defense. Complete any line to save its progress locally.

Drill the 16 decisions that matter

These 16 positions cover accepting or declining b4, the c3-d4 center, Qb3 pressure, two loose-bishop tests, the Qa4+ fork, Black's ...d5 break, and the Lasker simplification. Every Learn route appears twice, and each wrong choice is legal with an immediate board consequence.

Play the bot and apply it

Choose one of six Evans Gambit starts and set the bot from 600 to 3000. The coach recognizes the pawn offer, accepted center, Qb3 battery, compromised c3-pawn, Anderssen tempo, main ...d5 break, Lasker trade, declined structure, and Qa4+ fork.

Evans Gambit variations

The six starts contain the main seven-move position, all four book variations, and the Qa4+ fork set piece. Each assigns White and Black opposite, observable targets.
