can someone kindly post a game where black declines the gambit.(maybe except but not g5, or be7 which i find no good) Keeps a sane posistion (by this i mean not attacking to early & castling) and then clobbers white ... i would like to see it done...
When I'm black, I like to decline the king's gambit is before it's offered, with 1...c5.

actually yes 2 bc5 3 nf3. f6 does look bad ...
people say its a bad move but i like f6 against the ruy lopez ( you can't play nxe5.. ) but here it looks like that could cause trouble? think i should learn another of the counters like greenpawn said .... they are fun . i saw on an earlier thread that be7 ... the one i use most is not the best ... bc5 , d6 looks quite solid ...
