Anyone down to play a few blitz games in the Vukovic gambit?
1. e4, e5 2. Nf3, Nc6 3. c3, Nf6 4. d4, Nxe4, 5. d5, Bc5

I want to play it because it’s so crazy. Bd3 is met with d5 and you’re just worse. If you know to play Qd5 and a4 in the vukovic then you’ll get a good position. I just don’t have much experience in it considering how rare it is, and thus, want to get some games in for practice.

3.c3 and White is worse

No sorry, I should have clarified, but I left out a few moves in between. After Nf2, cxb7, Bxb7, Qxb7, Nxh1, then a4. This feels much more exciting and testing of your opponent than Rg1

I play the Vukovic against the Poziani, won a rook but later l;ost.

Did your opponent play cxb7 or Rg1? Or were y’all not in the mainline at all?
