TENNISON GAMBIT
Sort:
3...Nf6 is fine, but 3...Bf5 is even better (mainly because of 3...Nf6 4.Bc4).
Basically it's a junk gambit.

But then Nc3 is possible, that keeps the position safe

This is the way Keres played it. 6.f3 and not 6.d3 !!
White is not threatening to take on e4 yet- Black swaps everything at e4, and then plays ...Qh4+, so ...exf3 is not necessary.
Sample games:

7. fxe4 leads to =/+ (analysis by Evans) ;
But 7. 0-0 is the book move ( 7.0-0 h6 8.Ngxe4 Nc6 = (Lutes) ; 7.0-0 exf 8. Qxf3 is +/= (analysis by Moser) )
It is not apparent if you are referring to 6...Nc6 or 6...Bd6, but I guess the latter as 6...Nc6 7.0-0?? just drops a piece (7...Qd4+).
So, Moser claimed that 6...Bd6 7.0-0 exf3 8.Qxf3 is +/= ?
Obviously he was drunk.
Black can take care of the Nxf7 cheapo by castling, and ignore the threat to the b7 pawn since after 8...0-0 9.Qxb7 Nbd7 he is threatening a lot of nasties (Bxh2+, Ng4, Ne5 and so on), but actually 8.Qxf3 just blunders a second pawn.

As a matter of fact, it is a violation of FIDE ethics, but otherwise not illegal. Additionally, this is a bad gambit that throws away the advantage. If black wants to avoid trouble, he can always play g6 and retain a slight pull.

2....dxe4, 3.Ng5 Bf5!, 4.Nc3 Nf6
(Black is not behind in development and has no weaknesses, the knight stands awkward)
5.d3
(5.Bc4 e6, 6.d3 [6.0-0 h6-+] exd3 -+)
5....exd3, 6.Bxd3 Bxd3, 7.cxd3 Be7
(Nbd7 or c6 or c5 are fine, too) -+.
White is a pawn down, he has no attack, did not even gain a better development and he has an Isolani on d3. His position is most probably lost.
White is a pawn down, he keeps the
