Summary

The Budapest Gambit is an ambitious and adventurous opening for Black, who offers a pawn sacrifice as early as the second move in return for rapid development and active piece play. It has always been a powerful weapon at club level, where its surprise value can still pack a punch. On the other hand, it has also been utilized with success by Grandmasters.
