Moves : d4 Nxe5 ! exf5 ? Bc4 ! Nc3 d3 Qe2 (back)
Position after : f5 , last edited by Thibault de Vassal (2407) [2007 March 15] |
The Latvian Gambit is an aggressive but dubious chess opening, which often leads to wild complications. This opening is almost never seen at the top levels, but some correspondence chess players are devoted to it.
It was formerly known as the Greco Counter Gambit. The name is a tribute to the Latvian players, notably Karlis Betins, who analyzed it in the early part of the 20th century.
It looks like a King's Gambit with the colours reversed.
