whats the worst gambit?
Sort:
In my humble opinion, the Jerome Gambit is by far the worst. As long as black doesn't fall for any traps, all of which are generally pretty easy to avoid, they get a massive advantage. Best reserved for games with short time controls, like most unsound openings. But again, it's extremely unsound. With best play, black very easily wins by force
Kings Gambit, Drunken King Variation
Fred Gambit
I think taht this is the worst gambits for white and black, because you expose your king for a attack.

Bird opening: dudweiler gambit; 1. f4 d5 2. g4
King’s Pawn Opening: King’s Knight, Irish, Chicago Gambit. Or 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Nxe5 Nxe5 4. d4
This is by FAR one of the worst gambits because you give up a whole knight for more development, which white gets the first turn, so no need.

Mosquito gambit. It achieves nothing and let white develops their pieces.
