Chess ain't algebra. It has no equations.

Anyway, let's get on to the forgotten Gambit, the Evans'

I love the Evans, I think the best line for Black is the Cordel though:

I play Evan’s almost everytime I get a chance to, it’s fun lol. If people look forward to playing solid chess then go ahead, I’m just playing to have fun. If this forum is only made cause you can’t beat Gambits and think that it’s stupid, is flagging dumb for you? Cause it’s not “real” chess

Gambits really are fun to play with when you are the one who plays it...

agree with Oliver

CrockPotLion

A point people might consider... Gambits are about psychology, not just position? Stuff like Wing or Ross gambit, opponent kind of saying... Here, take a free pawn, because I'm so good I gonna beat you whatever? When I played D4 the reply I hated was E5... Englund gambit. Because people say it's rubbish you feel like you Must win, you Should win... And if you don't win... you are dummy. People say... Oh, Lion lose to Englund?! Lion be dumb, ha ha... Lion be patzer, ha ha, etc. So gambit put pressure on, yes? Albin Counter be similar, also.

Nice piling on of pressure and final tactics.

Agree, the QG is the one I hate the most.

Yeah, I think flagging is a sh**ty practice. Particularly those players who obviously set out from the start to play that way.

I believe the word your looking for is trap. Lots of gambits are solid such as queens, evans, and all that stuff.
