   Statistically, the Flibbenucci variation of the English opening (1.c4 e6 2.Qc2) is the worst. It hardly appears in any databases, and as far as I know, it's only been played once in a master level tournament. And that was a pretty quick loss. This was at the legendary Binford Tournament in 1898. The Bernoullian player Dimitrie Flibbenucci tried it against Horace Finchbaur of Grand Fenwick, with disastrous results:

I'm surprised that nobody says Meadow Hay Gambit, exchanges a rook for a bishop, that is, 1. a4 e5 2. Ra3 Bxa3 3. Nxa3

It doesn't expose the king too much, but it blocks the c1 bishop.

The Grob Attack is the worst, with a LOT of loopholes.
