Damiano Defense.  White either mates or gets a lead in development.  For example, 3. Qe7 4. Nf3 Qxe4+ Be2 with an advantage to White.

Wins a pawn, loses his Knight!

I assume this is another joke?

this is not a joke and taking that knight would result in awesome positioning for white

Fine.  Here is the mate that will occur if Black takes the knight.

In fairness, I'd just take my Knight out to cover the centre earlier. :-)

I wouldn't move my king out.  Why not just move the pawn at g7 up and block the queen?  Ive had this done to me before and it really ends up with whites queen in jeopardy.
