With 1.d4 I play:
1.d4 d5 2.e4 dxe4 3.Nc3 Blackmar-Diemer Gambit1.d4 Nf6 2.g4 Gibbins-Weidenhagen Gambit1.d4 Nf6 2.e4 Omega Gambit1.d4 e6 2.e4 d5 3.c4 Diemer-Duhm Gambit1.d4 c6 2.e4 d5 3.c4 Diemer-Duhm Gambit (Caro Kann Variation)1.d4 f5 2.e4 Staunton Gambit1.d4 f5 2.g5 Lisbon Gambit1.d4 g6 2.h4 (i like to play the h pawn all the way up to h6 to disrupt Blacks development) if Black plays h5 then his pawn structure is weakened becausei can sac on either the f7 or g6 pawns in a kingside attack.
There may be more lines that I do play, but that is all for now.
With 1.c4 I play:
1.c4 c5 2.d4 cxd4 3.e3 Liedmann Gambit1.c4 e5 2.e3 Nf6 2.f4 exf4 3.Nf3 and I also sac the e and d pawns but continue developing my minor pieces. Kahiko-Hula Gambit1.c4 g6 2.h4 h4 pawn thrust1.c4 f4 2.e4 Hickman Gambit
With 1.Nc3 I play:

This is incredibly kind of you to share this opening information with us. I am new to gambit gang but it hasn't taken long to see you are a rare teacher indeed !!

Thanks for posting Darth!
Are you planning to post your repertoire for black as well?
Another fun one to play that I've had good luck with is the Sturm Gambit (1. f4 d5 2. c4) - I'd be happy to discuss this one with you if you're interested.
The Sturm Gambit looks like an interesting Gambit because I also play the BirdsOpening.
My repertoire for Black against 1.e4:
My chess openings against 1.d4:
Other chess openings not posted:
1.Nf3 d5 2.c4 dxc4 3.b3 Regina-Nu Gambit - article at Chessville1.e4 f5 2.exf5 Duras Gambit - planning to write a future article atChessville - my chess student Fred plays the Fred line which goes1.e4 f5 2.exf5 Kf7 which is a reverse Tumbleweed. i play 2...Nf6transposing into a Franco-Hiva Gambit.1.f3 and Kf2 - I took down a player with a higher rating - he triedto attack me but fumbled the ball on the one yard line. In thatgame I played all my pawns to the 3rd rank.Hippopatamus - black side - pawns on b6, d6, e6, g6 , Bishops onb7 & g7 , N's at d7 & e7. Still experimenting with this opening. Canbe played against 1.e4 or 1.d4 or any other White opening. GM PavelBlatny plays this opening, including Boris Spassky in his world championshipmatch with Petrosian. He had 2 draws with the Hippo.

Thanks I downloaded the 6 games on the Sturm Gambit. Will try to compile aSturm Gambit chess database 1.f4 d5 2.c4 from my 50 million game chessdatabase.

where can i find information about continuatitions of these gambits..Great postings keep it up
Regard to 1.e4 gambits have you played the ryder gambit?
Most of these gambits are posted as articles at Chessville. See link below.It is in my column called "The Search for Dragons & Mythical Chess Openings".
http://www.chessville.com/UCO/CN/index.htm
There are other gambits posted at the Yahoo Unorthodox Chess OpeningsNewsgroup such as the Gibbins-Weidenhagen Gambit 1.d4 Nf6 2.g4and the Halasz Gambit 1.e4 e5 2.d4 exd4 3.f4. You would have to jointhis newsgroup and look at the files section and past messages.
Not sure If I had played the Ryder Gambit. Is that a variation of the BlackmarDiemer Gambit? What are the moves to this opening?
