Insanely Aggressive Nakhmanson Gambit

The Nakhmanson Gambit is a very fun and aggressive opening where white sacrifices a knight and a bishop for a devastating attack on the black king.

It starts with the moves:
1.e4 e5
2.Nf3 Nc6
3.Bc4 Nf6
4.d4 exd4
5.O-O Nxe4
6.Nc3

Sounds like everyone wants to see more lines of the Nakhmanson so that's what I'll do. Next two videos will be declined variations and other accepted lines besides 6...dxc3. Thanks for all the positive feedback.

Falling into this trap looks absolutely devastating. It’s like your constantly flipping off your opponent in every move. I could see the white king metamorphose into a middle finger.

[omarbassam]

Yes pls continue with the other lines of this gambit

Me: plays cool gambit

My opponent: what if I just don’t take the free knight?

I love how even after a whole decade, your style and presentation of the video hasn't changed. Thank you for making such a great video. Keep going

When I was learning chess in my early teens this channel was my go-to for learning openings. I stopped playing for seven or eight years, but lately I've been getting back into it. AND HE'S STILL UPLOADING. What a champ.

This is just THE KILLER gambit I was hoping for coming out of the Italian opening for white, Kevin! Thank you! By the way, you're excellent with your variations explanations in every single one of your videos that you have taught through the years, Sir!

[natashafernandes]

What I absolutely love about this dude that he is straight to the point. No dillydallying.

NOW EVERYONE KNOWS RIP THIS OPENING NEVER TO BE SEEN AGAIN

[issansubuga]

Man Kevin thanks alot for your videos yourve really taught us alot and I hope you keep posting!

11:00 white has no forced checkmate. Maybe an advantage in a sweaty endgame. It comes down to 2 rooks and a bishop against a queen and a bishop.

Rip my favourite opening now everyone's gonna know about it :/

[OregonMikeH]

Mr. kevin I've listened to your videos since around 2010 I think. That's when I first learned how to play chess from my father-in-law. Your videos were extremely helpful. Thanks man. Hope you and your family are healthy.

Please can we vote to call this the 'Jonathan Schrantz Gambit' as he was the first I've ever seen to study it thoroughly.

[BadirASalih]

We should all thank Jonathan Schrantz for bringing this gambit back
