Kings gambit busted.

Just kidding (though the buster was not), we cannot memorize the unpublished solution.

It seems that Nc3 would be more critical. I am just looking on the statistics and I never played KG.

I had never played King's Gambit. I agree with Chemwong that Nc3 should be better, or just take the e-pawn and guard it with Nf3.
