@MorningCoffee fully agree with #6 and #10.

@Uxe, if you play the Kings Gambit, always remember its main positional idea: fight for the black squares, especiall e5.

You will have to work a bit on the theory part but if you do, you will experience amazingly simple wins against patzers who play passive setups.

@pita96 dude you are a genious, aren't you?

@MorningCoffee yes I am

Viktor Korchnoi was an advocate of KG. He came close to becoming world champion and was one of those players who continued to play at top level to a very advanced age.

Boris Spassky was an advocate of KG. he was world champion :)

Remember, Fischer wrote his 'bust to the KG' article after he lost to Spassky (however, he had bad luck in that game).

Its this game:

Also, i wouldnt say that Korchnoi was an advocate of Kings Gambit, he was more like an advocate of chess and everything. He once said: I play seventy opening systems. Guess that is normal when someone has played chess such a long time ...
