My grandfather: shows me his cigar collection, telling how tobacco is harvested. Also my grandfather: "You should never smoke, it's causing a lot of desease". 🗿🗿🗿
If instead of 4.Bc4 you go 4.Bb5+ if they block the check with Bd7 (2nd most popular move) then you go back to Bc4 and after Nb6 now the sacrifice on f7 works
straight into my repertoire - because I'd rather gamble on my opponent not knowing the refutation than embarrass myself trying to not blunder a million things vs the stupid Alekhine :)
Pop quiz: should you play the Dummy Gambit?
No
No but I'm gonna play it anyways
Im an 800, and just play to have fun so….
Trick question, it doesn't matter because I'll play it regardless
As a devotee of the Gambit, I'm always playing a piece down. Therefore, Cassandra, thy warnings shalt not slake me.
Your humble servant
"do NOT play this gambit!"

Halloween gambit
why does lichess say normal variation?
Because this “gambit” has no theory on lichess, so it considers a normal move after entering the alekhine normal variation.
