Clyde Nakamura is my UCO hero and I love going through his games and I especially enjoy playing his gambit lines. I have been playing his Franco Hiva Gambit (1.e4 e6 2.d4 f5) line for black and decide to try it in reverse for White. I ended up beating a player 200 pts higher than me in a quick match. It was great. The real Kaluko Hula Gambit is 1.c4 e5 2.e3 Nf6 3.f4 exf4 4.Nf3. I decided to come out with e3 instead... kinda like a reversed Franco Hiva. Please check out a collection of Clydes UCOs and Gambits HERE
I included notes to my game below. Some mistakes by both sides but just check out how quickly White gets all his pieces out. This is why I use the Franco Hiva as black and the Kaluko Hula for White.
