Tennyson Gambit
Sort:
I like to play the Qa5 line of the Scandinavian sometimes. But sometimes my opponent plays the Tennyson Gambit with 2.Nf3, ... Can I play 2..., c6 and turn it in to a form of Caro Kann?

You could definitely do that, BUT it’s probably better to accept the gambit and be careful to not fall into the ICBM trap.
I do not know the ICBM trap.
this is the ICBM trap

It’s the InterContinental Ballistic Missile variation. You tube it and white is promised a garanteed win. But that is not entirely true.
For black: take the first pawn but not the second. And defend your pawn initially with your bishop, not the knight.
