Get ready for some 🔥🔥🔥 on the board with the red hot Icelandic Gambit!If you meet 1. e4 with the Scandinavian and then with 2...Nf6 you sometimes encounter White players who venture 3. c4, trying to hang on to the pawn.
This is a big risk - it gives you the option of playing the fiery Icelandic Gambit with
3...e6. And this is where the fun begins!
Dare you play the Icelandic Gambit?
In this repertoire I rely on GM David Smerdon's analysis together with Stockfish in the main lines. However, I go considerably beyond him by showing how to meet all the sub-par White moves.
These are moves which GMs would never play but you will encounter very often. I know from my own experience that it's much better to know their refutation ahead of time instead of having to find it in live play.
I also provide in-depth coverage of how to play when White declines the gambit with 4. d4, transposing to the underestimated Exchange French: Monte Carlo variation.
