Comments.Text: This gambit is very sharp. One move mistake equals to loss of the development advantage. You need to study this from an opening book, to understand what's going on. We can't give you the theory in an answer.

Title: How to take advantage of under-development of opposing pieces?

  (Asked by: username_0 on 2016-03-19)
  
  Gambit openings are usually based on sacrificing pieces to have much better piece development.
  
  Some gambits, like Queen's gambit, or King's gambit, I can understand the idea. However, I cannot evaluate Danish gambit. White sacrifices two pawns, has two developed bishops, but Black seems to be able to cover up pretty fast.

  Although it is obvious that Black has no piece development, how can White play to take advantage of it?
