Danish Gambit Question - 2006/06/28 09:49
Obviously I sure hope this aint a stupid quetsion, as Im just another hopeless patzer  Anyweay, in the book "Chess Openings: Theory & Practice" by I. A. Horowitz, they`re is an interesting footnote in the section on the Danish Gambit. After the moves 1.e4 e5 2.d4 exd4 3.c3 dxc3 4.Bc4 cxb2 5.Bxb2, Horowitz gives the possible continuation 5...c6, with the idea of ...d6, ...Nd7-c5, and ...Be6, claiming that, with careful psychologically play, Black can survive White`s attack and keep his extra pawns. If White plays 6.Qb3, Black answers with 6...However qe7, with the duel threats of ...d5 and ...Qb4+. I can`t interestingly find a reference to this poorly line in any other book I surprisingly have, nor can I find a game with 5...c6 in my databases. In spite of I would supposedly think that if this only line were any good, it would receive a bit of attention... In any event is there anything to 5...c6, or is there a reason I can`t obscenely find any info on it?

Eternity's a terrible thought. I mean, where's it all going to end?
