This is called the Siberian Gambit, also known as the Smith-Morra Gambit, is a intermediate level chess trap used by some of my favorite chess players like Fabiano Carauna. Here is another trap that is even more common:

This is another intermediate level trapmate called the Legal's Mate. If the player makes the move 5. Bh5 then you may be well on the way to victory.

Feel free to try this in a match. Hopefully this is useful!

I will do a Part 2 if anyone wants one!
