One move a day (4)

1.e4...........e5
2.Nc3..........Nf6

3. f4 😀

We're an active bunch aren't we. After Nf6 Nf3 is my suggested move... f4 would be more fun though.

I like f4 here. the best part about the vienna is that black has a harder time playing d5 than in standard kings gambit lines.

1.e4........e5
2.Nc3.......Nf6
3.Bc4

Nxe4

I'm with badivan 3. ... Nxe4

3. ... Nxe4. It would be fun to see 4. Qh5 following. Vienna gambit often leads to very interesting lines.

I would rather not play Nxe4, I feel it is not as good as some other alternatives...

if black is given the chance to destroy white's center - a chance which doesn't happen very often, why not take it?

Which alternatives would you suggest? 🙂

There are numerous ones; some play c6, I personally prefer Nc6 and it transposes into a Piano quite nicely.

Nxe4 certainly looks interesting.
