damiano gambit - 100% win
I just learned recently how white should play against the Damiano and I can't wait to face it. It really is a terrible opening for black.

It is generally a waste of time to learn such opening. Just focus on theory and improve your chess to be a better player. Once you become a better player, you will hardly see such bad opening among good players.
There might be 100- 500 opening traps on the market , but 99% of them broke opening principles. If you follow opening principles you prevent 99% of those traps.
He must play 3...Qe7, and after the Knight moves:
3...Qe7
4.Nf3
4...d5
5.d3
5...dxe5
6.dxe5
7.Qxe5+
Chigorin played the damiano and could get a draw !
Its true, but this is damiano opening not damiano gambit.
Yes you're right the Damiano opening is better than the Gambit (but still losing for black) i still could find some draws
and one win !
ok Petrov losed (the position wasnt this bad) but he was eight years old at this time ![]()
For me (I don´t play chess), the move f7-f6 looks terrible, because the f7 square is a very weak square. To play f7 looks like a suicide. But, if someone drew against Bobby Fisher (who played in the white side)...

Dont try this it's suicidal ![]()
Damiano Gambit is not bad, check in opening book or analysis board this opening. Black weakens his king wing, never touch the e pawn before king is castled. Stockfish top move is also this Gambit and white is already evaluated +2. Even if black not take the knight and finds the following top moves, after 7 moves white is evaluated+2.50 and much better developed.
Taking Knight it's already a lost position. This is one of the less gambits i memorized a lot combinations in advance, if somebody touches his e pawn in second move. It works fine.
