There is an antidote for black. Took me a while to figure it out. But heck, I am not going to reveal it here. I have just started playing this gambit, and would like to notch a few wins!
I actually saw many players play d5 instead of d6 on move 4 or move 5 and I end up taking the pawn with Bxe4 after dxe4. Is there a way to still play the Greek gift and win or should I just look for other tactics?
Most advanced players aren't going to play qh4 and lose a tempo by immediately having to move the queen again. I'm not an advanced player by no means, but I even see that's a wasted move and loss of tempo.
@@bryankinslow6851 Qh4 opens forces the g pawn move, and exposes the white king, obliterates whites king side requiring very careful play. I’d go for it. If you play this as white against me, I’d go for it…😉
Queen h4 is a bad move, black loses tempo, time, développement, after g3, queen can goes back in f6 protecting d4 but the problem it is e5 attack the queen again loosing d4 the next move. After g3 if queen come back in d8, queen takes d5 or c3. Queen h4 is a bad move.
Well, yeah. But they have to know what to do. This video doesn't show what black should *really* do. As far as I can tell, with best play, white ends up with a disadvantage that is likely to grow, as black's position is easier to play than that of white.
