Demolition job showing that in the KG, Black simply cannot waste tempi on moves like a6 & h6.

This clean win for White against a Black novelty wheeled-out in the Modern Defence, was marred only by repeated Draw offers from my opponent, after a minor slip early on.
I agree... the King's Gambit is an awesome opening. If I played 1.e4 I'd be playing it.
IMO the real reason why it's no longer played at the highest levels is because the draw % is very low, around 16%, & that is vey low when compared to the main lines that are popular now. If you play the King's Gambit... General stats are" 45% you win, 35% you loose... GM's hoard Elo .... If FIDE ever figures out how to do away with the ELO system.... you would see the King's Gambit become massively popular again
Hi.
A fantastic, fun opening for White at all levels.
