Gambits versus the Alekhine's defence and the Scandinavian defence
Could you give a few, please?
Heres a cool article on 1.e4 d5 2.g4!?

Enjoy!
Thanks, Graw81. I was actually aware of The Blackmar-Diemer Gambit and I have played some Blitz with it, but I didn't consider it to be very sound. It may be interesting to give it another try, though. Are you aware of any literature on the subject?
I'm not so sure about your Alekhine lines. I may have to play main lines here.
Thanks also for the article. That's one gambit I will not be trying any time soon.
There are a few highly praised volumes on The Blackmar-Diemer Gambit. I think "Tim Sawyer" (if my memory is working properly) is the key author. Have a look at amazon.com!
No problem about sharing some info with you =)
There should be some books on the BDG.
I actually didnt notice Eric Schiller had an article on his page about 1.e4 d5 2.Nf3 with the idea of a kind of reversed budapest gambit. I was playing that for some time thinking i had come up with the idea haha. The article even includes the 3...Bf5 4.g4 line which i done some analysis on at home. I must now go read that article!
I found an Alekhine game classified as a gambit with:
1.e4 Nf6 2.e5 Nd5 3.c4 Nb6 4.d4 d6 5.Nf3 Bg4 6.Be2 dxe5 7.Nxe5
(black accepts by taking the bishop)

Thanks, but that's not really a gambit.

I like to play gambits or at least gambit like openings, but so far I have failed to find a gambit in these defences. Does anybody have a suggestion?
