The Traxler counter attack is a line in the Fried-Liver-Attack which starts with 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 Nf6 4. Ng5 Bc5!!!!!!! . This opening at the advanced level and master level is easy to equalize but at 1200 1300 or the beginner level this opening is basically free elo. I will not get into the theory ( just watch the videos on youtube ) but the best response is actually Bxf7+! and Bb3!

It's too tricky, for both sides.

I played it before, but not anymore, because it gets too complicated for my level.

The Fried Liver Attack is specifically 4...d5 5 exd5 Nxd5 6 Nxf7.  Before that it's the Two Knights Defence.
