What is a "gambit"?
In chess, a gambit is an opening strategy where a player sacrifices a pawn or another small piece to gain an advantage, such as better positioning, faster development of pieces, or creating attacking chances. The opponent must decide whether to accept the gambit by capturing the offered piece or decline it to avoid falling into a trap. Gambits are often used to put pressure on the opponent early in the game, forcing them to respond carefully. Successful gambits can lead to strong attacks, while poorly executed ones may leave the player at a disadvantage.
