Ooooh, I forgot to mention some crazy idea that originates from the Saragossa opening. It goes like this: 1.f4 e5 2.c3!? exf4 3.Qa4 (threatening to take on f4 with the queen and expand central pawns afterwards) 3... Qh4+?! 4.g3!
This is sure to confuse any From's gambit player.
This idea is not a bad one. The position is virtually even after g3xf4 d5 Nf3. The from player would be in uncharted territory.
I saw that many players in this group is afraid to play 1.f4 because of the from's gambit. Therefore I created this thread to show you how to take this tricky gambit down.
