The Uprising Danish Gambit

The Danish Gambit is commonly played among many, yet, often overlooked. It is viable at most levels and still, lots surrender the opportunity and capitulate instead of taking advantage. White sacrifices a pawn, most of the time two pawns, for fast development, specifically two glaring bishops which are devastating when handled poorly.

The Danish Gambit is as follows.

There are multiple ways to continue for black, however, the most prominent by far is accepting the gambit, white's main moves are sacrificing a second pawn from there on out and Nxc3, the latter variation will be shown later. Black's best move is to develop Nf6 and if possible, Bc4+ to mess up the Bishops on Bc2 and Bc4.

White can also try the seemingly secure Nxc3 and avoid sacrificing a second pawn, although this is still a slight advantage for black and can go downhill.
