sorry to say this but what's the G mean in QG then? If the difference between 'gambit' and 'true gambit' is a matter of soundness... then your definition of gambit isn't really fair to the question. I honestly am confused.. what are you talking about?
where i the king's gambit, white sometimes never gets back the pawn, maintaining pressure...
but in the QGA, white gets back the pawn quickly with equality
