The Latvian Gambit has gathered an increasing number of supporters who unleash the sparkling gambit at every opportunity, both to enjoy its delightful vigorous action, but also to test ideas and advance the theory of the line. A major source of such contests are the correspondence tourneys organized by John Elburg of the Netherlands. The First Latvian Gambit World Championship Tournament provided fertile ground for testing new ideas, which are presented in this book of the games from that event. The world's strongest exponents of the Gambit participated, resulting in significant advances in the theory. The Latvian Gambit provides an exciting opening option for the enterprising chess player, and this book displays the latest developments in this opening.
