The Ruy Lopez is an incredibly popular opening at all levels of chess, from the amateur player up to top level grandmasters. It is considered as one of the best openings for white after the moves 1.e4 e5.
In this video, IM Andrey Ostrovskiy is sharing with you the Open Variation, which is an interesting choice for players who tend to play the more aggressive way.
The Ruy Lopez opening is characterized by the following move sequence:
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5
and after 3...a6 4.Ba4 Nf6 we are within the Morphy Defense. If white castles with 5.0-0 and black continues with 5...Nxe4, we enter the Open Variation. The main focus of this video is to show you the main strategies and plans for both sides in the different variations.
