A brilliant game o play against someone, as White of course.
Although it is possible to lose as white if you are not careful.

@DrizztD

when black comes in with Qxe4+, Kd1 saves the day!

Technically this is gambit not a defense! Since after Nxe5 black can not capture the knight, I must play either g6 or Qe7.

This defense was used against Bobby Fischer by an unknown player, and got a draw!

 

Instead of ...fxe5, Black should instead play ...Qe7 and a rather complicated game ensues.

an opening that should not be played instead of nxe5 play nh4 the best black can do is g6 which seriously weakens his king side if not qh5 now g6 is answered with nxg6 forking bishop and rook now hxn drops the rook bishop to g7 drops the rook with check

3. Bc4!? isn't as solid as 3. d4, 3. Nc3, or 3. Nxe5 but exploits the weakness on the a2-g8 diagonal methodically.

Nxe5,fxe5,Qh5+,g6,Qxe5+ although white i down a pawn,I white has a better position and black's king is in a bad place.

There's not many games in the database... so the numbers don't really say much.. but the fact that not many use it must mean something.
