I'm trying to expand my opening repertoire, so I've been experimenting with this gambit for black (not sure what it's called) to play against Ruy Lopez. I played this match kinda out of intuition with no study. Even though my opponent wasn't a very strong player, I was quite please with my play. Enjoy and comment!

Yes, this is the Ruy Lopez, Schliemann Defense. White can play 5.Ng1, but can also play 5.Qe2 or 5.Bxc6, then 6.Qe2. I play this as Black. Here is one of my short games with it.
