I hate this!

Does anybody know any interesting lines/gambits for White?

Blackmar Diemer Gambit 1.e4 e5 2.d4?!

You mean 1e5 d5 2d4, I suppose.... That's a thought.

The problem is that there are very few gambits that white can play in the scandinavian.  Why not just play the main lines instead because white gets a solid advantage.

My score against the Scandinavian is 66%, perfectly acceptable for me. But I hated each and every one of those games. Boring, dull predictable grinds.

I play this game for fun : )

Thanx everybody, some food for thought here.

I play Rb1 in the Mieses Gambit. The b4 gambit "hardly gives White a good advantage, but this is very difficult for Black to prove over the board."

Because it allows the queentrade, and while that´s not bad, it´s not really taking advantage of blacks inadequate move either, with Be2 white is asking black why he has blocked his own kingside.

Tricklev

Why would he play b6? To Prepare a fianchetto? After 5. Nf3 white already has a tangible advantage.

Tricklev

Qb6 is great for white, it actually shows that blacks check did nothing but help white with his development, patzer sees check, patzer gives check. Black continues his development with 5. Nf3 and he has a huge lead in development.
