So here it goes. White opens with E4. White opens with E4, allowing for the development of both their queen and their bishop. Black’s most popular response to E4 is playing E5. Now, after the E4-E5 opening, white can go in either development with the bishop or with the queen, but remember we’re focusing our attack on the weak F7 square.

So in this particular opening, I will open up with the bishop to C4. As you can notice, the bishop is directly looking at the weak F7 square putting pressure on that pawn. Black develops the knight, and now is when we activate the queen. As you can see, the bishop is already looking at the F7 square, and now we’re going to move the queen to one of two positions that can also look at or attack the F7 square.

The queen can be activated to H5 and as you see, the queen is now threatening the F7 square, or we can also activate the queen to F3. In both these positions, the queen and the bishop are both looking at F7. Now if black is not careful and black makes a normal developing move or controlling the center, white can simply play queen takes pawn and as simple as that, the game is over.

Black responds to center, and now we can activate our queen.

As you can see, we have our queen threatening weak F7. Black continues with the development, and now we need our second piece to attack F7. Currently, we have the queen threatening F7, and now we’re going to activate our bishop which is also looking at the weak F7 square. After black continues with their development, once again, queen takes
