Information
has glosseng: The Irish Gambit, Chicago Gambit, or Razzle Dazzle Gambit, is a weak chess opening that begins 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Nxe5?, intending 3...Nxe5 4.d4. White's pawns occupy the center, but the sacrifice of a knight for a pawn is a very high a price to pay. The gambit is accordingly considered unsound, and is never seen in high-level play. It is often referred to as the Chicago Gambit, perhaps because Harold Meyer Phillips, remarkably, used it in an game in a simultaneous exhibition in Chicago to beat Harry Nelson Pillsbury, one of the strongest players in the world at the time.
