Danish Gambit

An illustration of one line of traps in the Danish Gambit. I have played every single one of these traps many times against players ranging from 1200-1900. Even if they do not go into these traps, the Danish gambit still leaves you (usually) with a solid and dynamic position, which is great for people who hate those long grinding positional games.

I was planning on covering alot of lines but it got too complicated for only 1 game board so if people like it i can cover more lines of traps - there are dozens!

Interesting -- looks like you had some good fun!  I personally stopped playing the Danish Gambit once my opponents reached a level where they were typically aware of Schlecter's Defense.  Frown

Yes but there are actually a ton of great responses to the Schlecter's Defense

You've definitely got some good ideas there, although I think 6 ... Bb4+ may be the most challenging line in Schlecter's Defense.
