Sorry not new. Its the English Opening: Jaenisch Gambit
The jaenisch gambit is black gambiting a pawn with b5 against C4, this D4 counter-gambit idea was invented by me
A new line was invented soo i'm going to talk about it

IN fact after 1. c4 b5 2. d4 bxc4 3. e4 its still the English Opening: Jaenisch Gambit
Dude for It to be shown as a ACTUAL opening i would need to: this opening be played at a high level (which actualy happened a singular time) then the now called opening idea to be deeply studied by the chess community for then it be finally called a opening and be listed as so in chess.com/any other chess site soo it will take a long time till chess.com starts calling this opening by it's real opening name soo even tho i call it a opening it's more of a opening idea
Nice, this is really cool. Looks like you put a lot of work into this.
When I was a kid I wanted to make my own opening, too. Pretty much impossible at this point in chess history.
As most of you know by now i've recently created a new opening called the english queen counter-gambit a off-beat but really interesting gambit that can result in extremely aggresive positions where black has difficulty to develop their pieces.
During the period of about a week i've been only covering 3... Ba6 lines. But, i noticied that a new 3... Bb7 line was invented some days ago and it's getting really famous soo today i will be trying to cover and review It.
Even tho the computar hates it, after testing this line it has proved itself to be a extremely tricky and difficult to deal with as white especially in the exchange variation i have showed. Taking on c4 isn't recommended because after black takes on e4 black's dark squared bishop is simply to hard to deal with. The move i recommend is Nc3 (Nd2 is possibly playable but a i didn't study It enough to be able to claim anything).
After this the most natural move for the black pieces (and also one of the top engine moves) is to add pressure in our E4 pawn with Nf6.
After Nf6 you have 2 options: E5 (the advance variation) and Bxc4 (the delayed exchange variation). And today i will be covering both options!
1. E5 (the advance variation)
after E5 the black's knight obviously is gonna move either to D5 or to E4. In case the knight goes to D5 in case It moves to D5, i need to warn you: DO NOT TAKE ON C4 AND DO NOT TAKE ON E4 because after Bxc4 first of all black already has a trap. It's Nxc3 and now If you take the knight with the pawn you will simply lose the rook.
But thankfully you can get out of this trap and bassically equalize with Qb4.
The thing i don't like about Bxc4 in this position is not the move Nxc3 by black, Nb6 is the real problem. After Nb6 the only move that is able to hold this position together is Bf1. I am literraly saying that undeveloping a piece is the best move. Stockfish still tries to argue that this position is equal but i still wouldn't recommend this to no one.
And also, If you take the Knight on d5 (or even e4 for that matter) after the bishop takes your knight back we will have the same problem form the exchange variation, the black's dark squared bishop will bassically turn into a untouchable god that can take your rook at any moment; in another words: we bassically don't want the black's bishop in the center of the board. Now, against Ne4 what i recommend is to actualy take the pawn on c4 as strange as it sounds taking on c4 is finally a good move bacause unlike before where in (almost every occasion) black would get a substancial quantity of counterplay If you took back your gambited pawn now black has no counterplay If you take, except If they take c3 but this would transpose to that trap position that i already managed to succesfully refute.
And now i had talked about ALL the theory behind E5, i will talk about the theory behind Bxc4 (the delayed exchange variation)
2. Bxc4 (delayed exchange variation)
Even tho i don't like Bxc4 in almost every position coming from this line i need to admit that i love taking the pawn in this position because black has no counterplay after we take it and white has a trap in case black immediately takes on e4; take a look at what happens if black takes on e4 with the bishop or the knight:
And with this trap i end today's portion of theory luckly you will be seeing a new update on what to do against 5... Nd5 and maybe new discoveries on the Nd2 line. Always remember to stay safe and play chess
