GAMBIT
No, this is not a local style of carbide shooting (Google it, you won’t be let down). Gambit is a particular opening move during a game of chess. A player sacrifices a chess piece (usually a pawn) in the hope of being able to progress faster. It may sound complicated, but gambits also occur in real life. Every day, military manoeuvres are carried out where part A is sacrificed so that part B may gain an advantage or win. But what does this mean for the sacrificed pawn?
