All KGA games are interesting.

This is the highest rated player I managed to beat with it, although I was lucky because he made a mistake in Game 2439096

Not that great but it's an unusual King's Gambit game.

wow. Games played with this opening seems so strange and "ugly" (I mean confusing) to me that it looks like a chess variant.

Not bad! Pity you decline the gambit as black in Game 4817301.

7 moves (as black) against Birds that became a KG then a Falkbeer and against a 1900 player in Game 2455246.

That was a resignation of course but this is a mate in 8 as white in Game 2573546.

Well done, man. This just made my day. The first one especially.

The Kings Gambit is unsound and easily refuted, just check out this game

once you castle and move the two bishops over to protecy the king, and shut down the light squared bishop, black has no weaknesses.

Oh really?
Maybe you should tell GM's Short, Morozevich, Gallagher & Fedorov who still play & win with it!

What nonsense! White blundered and those blunders were in the middle game and had nothing to do with the opening choice.

Lots of the top players here play the KG and win with it as do loads of GMs. It is not unsound (even Fisher could not refute it) and creates exciting unbalanced attacking games.
