Yes, Thank You! I used to love to play nothing but this opening back in the day. 8-) Do you know of any engines that play this opening well?

Rybka, er, well, I tried a King Gambit tourney and it came on top, but games could have been decided on the middlegame or later.

go king gambit go. Bring back the old days of hyper-masculine chess, where the kings gambit was played at the highest level and it was considered cowardice to not take the gambit pawn.

This here is the John Wayne of openings.
