Hi everyone! I recently found something, which is probably bad but still makes me wonder...
What about a e4 gambit in the Grunfeld?
I could not find many games playing it; Fritz doesn't suggest any clear refutation. Main answers might be:
4. ... Nxe4 5. Nxd5.
4. ... dxe4 5. f3 (looks a bit like the black diemar gambit?) exf3 6. Nxf3
4. ... dxe4 5. f3 Bf5 6. g4 ?!
(Fritz suggests many others though)
opinions about this? Thanks!

c5 is a somewhat thematic move in the grunfeld... it's probably a good move! In that case, I think i would play d5, closing the center and therefore enabling further operation on the king side...
