That game was an analysis tho. Lemme get a real icbm gambit in another way
Another version of the icbm gambit i made, the midgame transitions into an endgame with black having 0% material

It's also an analysis btw
It's pretty good, but it only works in specific lines.
not as good as you might think sacrificing 2 pawns, 1 bishop and 1 knight to get the queen means your only at a 1 point advantage.

3... Bf5!!
One more time.... In case I wasn't clear, or your English isn't up to par...
3... Bf5!! Refutes the main idea behind the ICBM... with best play by White, Black equalizes in an easy position to play... and White has nothing...
Don't play this...
So many of you out there playing this.... at least have the decency to resign... instead of abandoning the game!
