Silversteel Gambit

it basically draws out the black king, gets you ahead in development, and makes your pieces active.

3. Nb5 is a blunder

Modern Defense: Mongredien Defense, Enchilada Gambit

White sacrifices the rook for Black's bishop, but the dark-squared weaknesses will provide decent compensation for the lost rook.

English Opening: Myers Variation, Alligator Gambit

Again, Black's dark-squared weaknesses will be enough to compensate for the lost rook.

This also reminds me of a gambit I made a while ago in the indian game.

Accepting the pawn on c5 or advancing to d5 are the gambits for white for these, as it allows the dark-squared bishop to gain access to the b2 pawn and thus from there the rook.

Only if white moves the knight.

Hi chess enthusiasts, I've been intrigued by the challenge on Chess.com to come up with a new, serious gambit. It's a great exercise in creativity and understanding deeper chess strategies.

King's Pawn Opening: King's Knight, Border Collie, Lithium Gambit

1.h4 d5 2.e4 dxe4 3.f3 exf3 4.Nxf3 It’s called: kadas opening,paella gambit accepted and gives you a lead in development as well as kingside space advantage.🥘

KieferSmith

If it's in the Kadas opening, it's not serious wink

Here is another one: 1.e4 e5 2.d4 exd4 3.c3 dxc3 4.Bc4 cxb2 5.Bxb2 d5 6.Bb3 center game;danish gambit;pufferfish double gambit.

Wouldn't the logical move be 6. Bxd5?

LochaSog

Yeah but no one knows what to do and take but 7.Bxf7+ Ke7 8.Ba3+ and white is winning.

the sacrifice is good. If the opponent accepts it white is like +1

I said it was questionable because it is questionable whether the sacrifice is even bad. I really should have worded that better tho or made a better name lol

A lesser known gambit that I used to play occasionally (it's not my own invention, though):

The arkarian gambit:

Named after an opponent in my daily tournament who used it.

Edit: Wait this is von hennig gambit or something like that
