Some definitions here are inaccurate. So there are two meanings:

1. An opening in chess where the person playing white sacrifices the pawn in front of their queen (their queen's pawn) to gain a positional advantage. It does NOT mean sacrificing their queen. Here is the opening in chess notation:

1. d4 d5

2. c4

When this sequence of moves has been played, you have a queen's gambit.

2. A Netflix Miniseries. (It's actually '*The* Queen's Gambit') It's about how orphan Elizabeth Harmon in 1960's America struggles with her drug and alcohol addiction and how she becomes a chess prodigy in a male dominated game. The show discusses feminism, racism and male chauvinism - but NOT in an in-your-face way. It's subtle, and isn't the core of the story. Main character actress Anya Taylor-Joy says it's about 'loneliness and the price of becoming a genius'. Not just for chess geeks. Loads of people started to play chess because of it. Great cinematography, amazing 60's vibe - and tons of nostalgic 60's music. Memorable soundtrack too. You'll feel a lot for Beth after watching. <3
