Saw this great preview video on YouTube from GM Boris Alterman on how to defeat Damiano's Defense (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 f6?) It reminded me that I have noticed a number of other good sites:
- Chess (Washington Post, May 25, 2009) by Lubomir Kavalek
Perhaps the most useful and extensive GM commentary on 2...f6? ever recorded. - Life on the Edge (Gambit Cartel #12 at ChessCafe, August 2003) by Tim McGrew
Returns to the Damiano and discusses some other problematic gambit ideas. - Tactics of Mistake (Gambit Cartel #11 at ChessCafe, July 2003) by Tim McGrew
