Personally, I know that as the Greco gambit, and like virtually all gambits by black, it's unsound.

well it could be dangerous for attacking players - but if white plays correctly, he should gain a nice advantage.

Didn't I beat you with the Latvian once?  Can't remember if you survived the attack or if you beat me?

I beat you the first time when I sacrificed a knight in the center for lots of compensation.  Then you butchered me in the second game when you found the inaccuracy.   Good times xD

Came up in the opening playing the latvian as black or the greco counter gambit and eventually won a blunderful game
