Englund Gambit Declined

[edit | edit source]

White pushes further and worsens a bit it's position, but in exchange they get some control in black's territory and escape some traps in Englund Gambit by playing Englund Gambit Declined.

Somewhat it's the best response to the e5, ignoring the Stockfish, but it can be easily overplayed by your opponent, so you got to watch for that pawn.
