Like the Smith-Morra, this uses the gambit as a tactics trainer: calculation and attacking instincts that carry way beyond the opening.
A dependable French for players who want playable middlegames, not a second job memorizing theory.
More than a gambit: organized by tactical themes to build pattern recognition that carries into every other opening.
