Hey, everybody! Today, we have another trap from the Scotch Gambit! Let's get to it!

Now, let's analyze.

Firstly, this derives from the Scotch Gambit, just like the last post I made! (check that one out too )

Secondly, Black doesn't have to play Be7. Any bishop move will do.

Thirdly, after c3, Black should just forget the pawn and develop the king's knight to f6 and castle later.

Finally, Black plays dxc3, and it's too late to go back. After Qd5, White gains two pawns after a while, and gets a good position to boot.
