Why would you go d4, it literally hangs a pawn.

That's not a trap, it just means that at a 900 level anythin can happen. In the last game sacing the bishop makes no sense.
What's the point of the Busch-Gass Gambit? I don't understand how it accomplishes anything besides developing your bishop and losing a pawn. The Busch-Gass doesn't seem quite effective given that I've faced the Busch-Gass 17 times according to the explorer and have won 76% of the games and 8/9 games where I took the pawn (I didn't know to take the pawn before). The one game I lost when I took the pawn was against a player rated 100 points above me and I don't think had much to do with the opening.
