Im a fan of strange and obscure openings, so just wondering bout this opening, whether it is playable or just plain stupid. Thanks for your comments.

Good, Busch-Gass Gambit

After 4. Nxc6, either 4...dc 5. Qxd8 Kxd8 6. d4, or....
4. Nxc6 bc 5. d4 is bad for Black. White is up a Pawn with a full center and no weaknesses. At least that's how I see it.
No -- I thought Black's d-pawn was clear. 4. Nxc6 dc 5. Be2 seems safe, though. Still up a pawn and Black doesn't seem to have a concrete threat?
Easiest opening to learn for beginners ..
