In this video, IM Andrey Ostrovskiy brings to you the Wing Gambit in the Sicilian Defense. The Wing Gambit starts with the moves:

1.e4 c5 2.b4

White is offering a sacrifice to get rid of black’s c5-pawn in order to occupy the center with his own pawns. At the same time, white is trying to open up the position on the queen side to activate his minor pieces as fast as possible. The Silician Wing Gambit is in nowadays a bit underrated and it is maybe not the best opening but it is a good way to get your opponent out of the comfort zone.
