For the Englund Gambit, isn't the position generally worse for black because two of his pieces are left out in the open, particularly more austere case with the queen?
Big list of effective chess traps!
Sort:
The idea of the Englund Gambit is to translate a queen pawn opening to a king pawn opening, and is generally a bad idea. However, it has a few traps that, if your opponent falls for, will be down on a lot of material.
Thank you very much!
