Here is a more in-depth way of refuting the Englund from Lars Schandorff's book on the Indian Defenses

Today, my rating got from 2100+ to 1990+. But... Englund is Englund... same way, same victory.. I'm not saying that this gambit is idiotical, but..

wait, no.. okay nevermind.

I think it is the best Gambit as I won 43 out of 47 games by playing the Englund Gambit.

I was successful playing the Englund Gambit OTB for years. It's not going to win you a World Chess Championship, but if Black knows how to play it, White can easily go wrong.
