About the King's Pawn Game
White opens with 1.e4, taking the centre and opening lines for the queen and bishop. This family holds rarer replies and side lines after 1.e4.
Follow the basics: develop knights and bishops, castle, and fight for the centre.
Against odd replies, d4 builds a big centre for free.
Do not move the queen too early; it can be chased and lose time.
