Come up with a (serious) gambit!

Sort:
choobler

Make up a gambit! Also, include the idea/ some lines of the gambit. It can be played before, it just needs to not be already officially recognized as an opening. It has to be serious, no joke gambits are allowed. It is okay if it is a little dubious, as long as it isn’t awful. For example:

Italian Game: Anti-Fried Liver, Improved Goring, Water Variation

This is a gambit I came up with to use against the Anti Fried Liver. It targets the weak f7 square, and also opens up and activates your pieces, with the cost of only 1 or 2 pawns.

Alpha zero gambit in the pirc.

The idea is to grab a ton of space, mostly prevent kingside castling, and try to squeeze black to death by completely restricting their position

choobler

The AlphaZero gambit is nice, but it stops the usual plan of Be3, then Qd2 to trade off the fianchettoed bishop and ruin their kingside even more, then castle long.

PotatoesAndChess

You can still do that plan, first you just have to break with f5, which you want to do anyway

choobler

Yeah you’re right.

That opening is just a transposition of the Sicilian Defense: Hyperaccelerated Dragon, Fianchetto, Pterodactyl Defense, except that Be3 and Nc6 are both slightly innacurate moves.

Be3 Nc6 gambits a pawn

Oh. Is it a weapon for Black after the innacurate move Be3?

No, it doesn't because after dxc5 you have Bxb2

Ruy Lopez Opening: Classical Defense, Zaitsev Gambit

It's been played 13 times by masters according to the Explorer

The point of it is that after the black knight takes e5, you go d4.

Wasn't this your gambit for anti fried liver? I remember a thread.

All serious gambits have been played before. The ones that haven't are garbage for a reason.

My favorite Gambit is a sideline against the outflank attack

Not all good gambits.

Active queen, white LSB cant develop easy, if d4 then just Qg6, long castle and attack down e file, if white castles kingside then attack with h5

1.e4 e6 2.d4 d5 3.Bf4. The idea is when he plays 3. ...d×e4 you go Nc3 and you have : 1. active pieces 2.a lead in developement 3.potential threats on c7 . It’s the tomato gambit. 🍅🍅🍅🍅

LochaSog

Also 1.Nf3 e5 2.h4 e4 3 .Nd4 Nf6 4. Ra3 b6 5.Rb3 the crocodile gambit the idea is to activate the b3 rook and make the move 4. ...b6 useless. 🐊
