no comments, you infidels, dont you recognise a great chess arteest! 😛
Duly noted, I will be trying it on some poor unsuspecting opponent imminently... (I don't do blitz though, so expect me to come back in about a month)

This Tennyson gambit looks interesting. Is there any reference to it that I can find online?
the Budapest gambit with reversed colours. Great as a surprise weapon in blitz
although not entirely sound, so i am told. But when did that ever matter?

white tries to keep the pawn, the development one gets for a measly pawn is more
than enough compensation. Tennison himself was a great guy, truly a swashbuckling

another story!
the best line actually in such a position is probably the surprising Nxh7
