Hey William, really love your videos and your gambit repertoire. Believe it or not, as a gambiteer myself I ended up coming up with your same idea of playing blackmar-diemer adjacent lines against all of Black's defences against 1.e4 that featured an early ...d5. You can even get a von-popiel against the Alekhine! 1.e4 Nf6 2.Nc3 d5 3.e4!. Wish you the best
Hey william, absolutely love your content, 1 question, at 12:44 what do you do if he recaptures with the bishop instead of knight? Your aggressive budapest gambit video is totally goated btw
Awesome stuff ! usually playing the fantasy variation against the Caro Kann defense, I thought it was roughly the same thing, but on steroids !!! I already love it. It's like the scoth gambit had a son with the fantasy variation. Edit one week later : This Von hennig gambit is NASTY ! ! ! I just run over Caro Kann players. They just stand no chance. (1700 lichess)
Do you have any gambits against 1.d4 nf6 2. Nf3? I play your budapest if they go into c4 on move 2 but when they change the move order it’s difficult to find any aggressive options, if i play d5 and they go into the london i think i get into the london lines you suggest like the qb6 ideas but if they instead go for c4 it seems to transition into the grunfeld and indian defenses which i dislike, i have gambits for everything except d4 openings it seems when they go into that move order and it is really annoying
I’m 900, and I used this to flag a 2200 in a game of 10 second eggshell. For those who are not familiar, eggshell is where the entire game is played only on a delay.
01:50 Oh, but when I randomly whip out MY banana, it's a problem with law enforcement.... 🙄
Loving these lines. I still watch this regularly to refresh my memory with the move order.. thanks for this
Noice. Gambits and Gambit Glasses rule!
Love the von Henning! Great video ❤
The position reached after Ng5 is called the Alchemy variation of the Blackmar Diemer gambit
This is madness, and I love it. The only gambit I play is the Queen's gambit, but looks like I will soon be joining you!

4:57 Black can play bishop e5. doesn't win a piece but does leave black with a very bad position.
Yes!
I'm definitely going to test out your claim!
Awesome stuff !

doing God's work

Maybe try to play b5 after Nf3 the polish variation it’s not losing but will get players out of book
Very nice line against Caro-Kann. Many wins with this, thank you! Any good line against Ajechin?

after 8. Ng5 black plays Lxc2. Q cannot take back on c2, because of Qxd4. What should white play instead?
