gambits,for gamblers only??

it is a rather widely held belief that this is true! wrong wrong wrong! gambits are the result of the most intensive study of chess down the last 4 hundred years and if the pawns are the heart and soul of chess the gambit is the brain ! no gambit possess a gaurantee tag but those who are willing to study and then play them will find a whole new dimension opening up for them! gambits are very numerous and provide a more exciting element of risk than regular play and are by their nature perfectly playable by even newcomers to chess who may not yet be aquainted with regular opening principals. indeed they are after study the perfect introduction to"exciting play" be bold,play them!RECUVIC

I did not see the Blackmar Gambit

i have an idea if you know of a gambit post the lines and say the opening name. i didn't post all of the gambits but a lot of them i did.

Where is the Englund Gambit? 1. d4 e5
