Hey!
I use many UCO gambits but am studying the kings gambit right now as well as the lat gambit and budapest gambit.
Welcome to the group. I hope everyone from the last group comes back.
HAI GUISE!

Hi, my main weapons are:
as white:
1) King's Gambit against 1. ... e5
2) Grand Prix Attack with positional pawn sac on f5 against 1. ... c5 and 1. ... d6 (e.g. 1. e4 c5 2. Nc3 Nc6 3. f4 and later f4-f5 and d2-d3)
as black:
1) Albin Countergambit against QG
2) Winawer in French with pawn sac on g7, but opponents rarely go for it.
I used to play Evans (white) and Traxler (black) and i have some experience with From and dubious Fred defence (Duras gambit 1. e4 f5?!) where i invented several new ideas.

PolarBear, I wish you would cover, if only one gambit, the Duras. I don't care what people say bad about it, it still is intriguing. I think it is totally inferior, but if you carefully prepare a trap, your opponent will be scratching his head thanks to the open kingside files! :-)
I love to sac a pawn or two
My favs are Cochrane's gambit, Moeller attack, Benko/Volga gambits, Latvian, I'm sure I'm missing a few :)
