Hi. Just a few questions for you guys. Currently I play a form of the benoni. What are some other black gambits against d4?

Albin's countergambit (1.d4 d5 2.c4 e5)

Budapest gambit (1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 e5)

Benko/Volga gambit (1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 c5 3.d5 b5)

You have one in Albin as well: Lasker trap.

Jobava, Naiditsch played Budapest, Morozevich played Albin this year (blitz).

These openings are quite fine for blitz.

There’s a few traps in the Englund Gambit (1. d4 e5).

My favorite trap is

1. d4 e5 2. dxe5 Nc6 3. Nf3 Qe7 4. Bf4 Qb4+!? 5. Bd2 Qxb2 6. Bc3?? Bb4! Leading to a terrible loss for White.

However, this gambit is highly unsound. And if White knows how to respond you will have a very hard game.

Hope this helps!

The Benko Gambit is great alternative for your Benoni. Most sound gambit by black against d4 IMO.

Is the Botvinnik Pawn Sacrifice a gambit? Because that's probably the best "gambit" vs the Queen's "gambit"

Best Gambit vs 1.d4

The Benko gambit is a good option if you already play the benoni
