It is a counter attack by black for the fried liver as shown in this game of mine it is fun and an amazing gambit sacrificing the bishop, you should try it to.

The trouble is that practically everyone knows by now that 5.Nxf7 is a lemon which leads to an equal game, and that white should take this with the bishop.

Someone offered me Fried Liver this morning so I got to play my first Traxler (after learning about it just last week!). It was slightly delayed by my opponent trying to kick my bishop off c5, and the Rf1 threw me a little. Damn that felt good though!
