Watch out for poisoned pawns. And poisoned rooks.

anti-gambit the pawns back to where there's even control of the center and perhaps exchange queens leaving white uncastle-able.

Nice trap with the poisoned pawn (6... Qxb2?).

My opinion about the game is:

7.Qa4+!
but what do you think about "7... Nd7!?" ?

8... Qxa1??
better was 8... Bd7, but black is bad anyway.

9... b5??
he should play 9... Kd8 changing the rooks and black maybe has "air to breath"

Anyway. Good game!

Apreciatte it!

3...c5 is risky but almost sane compared to some of black's other moves. It at least had the right idea of fighting back in the center. Think the problem is that white can play something like 4.d5 Nf6 5.Nc3 and then e4 not completely sure. The main-line is 3...Nf6 4e3 e6 5.Bxp c5, which black was allowed to transpose to in the game with 4... e6(Nf6) iso 4... Qa5ch?. The QGA is quite a decent opening, if black doesn't attempt to hang on to the "gambit"  c pawn.
