Practise the Semi-Slav Defense: Marshall Gambit

The Marshall Gambit is 1.d4 d5 2.c4 e6 3.Nc3 c6 4.e4, a gambit against the "triangle setup" of the Semi-Slav Defense. Play White's moves of the line from memory — 1. d4 d5 2. c4 e6 3. Nc3 c6 4. e4 — and the trainer plays Black's replies; "Play the other side" turns it around.

"Drill all" adds the 4 named lines that continue it, such as Semi-Slav Defense: Marshall Gambit, Main Line, Semi-Slav Defense: Marshall Gambit, Forgotten Variation, Semi-Slav Defense: Gunderam Gambit, Semi-Slav Defense: Marshall Gambit, Tolush Variation.
