Originally posted by ketan5.0-0 is very old move known from 18th century. This gambit is still not refuted. In that game white have played not bad but instead of 7.d3 I would prefer 7.e5! Qxe5 8.Bxf7+ kxf7 9.d4! with powerful attack for 2 pieces. But 7.d3 is playable too and in final position of that game white should not resign - they had good play. 3 pawns for piece is good compensation, especially in endgame.

Here's one of my Double Muzio gambit games in progress on chessmaniac.com. The best I can probably do know is a draw because of an earlier move he made with the Queen. Feel free to make any comments...
[FEN]3r4/pp3qkp/2nQ1n2/8/3N2b1/8/PPP3PP/R4R1K w - - 0 22[/FEN]
EDIT: I can't get the board to paste with the FEN from chesspad. Any suggestions?

I`m not sure about it - these positions are so wild and complicated that even engines can`t rate them too precise.

This was based on analysis of some GM games that I saw on chessgames.com - the general consensus among KG players is that the Double Muzio isn't sound. I remember Northern Lad agreeing with this sentiment - CC it just isn't a good idea.
For example GM Keen was (or maybe still is) sure that he have refuted Grob in his game against Basman in 1980, but it is not so - I have analysed that game with Rybka (for some hours) and found where white could play better with comfortable (I would even say - slightly better) position. (Small offtopic: Than more I`m analysing Grob, than more makes me change my mind about this opening - it seems very playable)
Also don`t forget that evaluations of different opening lines have changed quite often. And these evaluations are mostly created by GM`s.
