Hello everyone,
I have started trying some gambits just to have some fun with chess. Now I'm an e4 player as black, so my gambits should come from this. For example
Now what is a gambit I can employ here. Doesn't have to be sound, just needs to be fun. Note I need this after my e4 move as black, because just in case white plays nf3 next, I can employ my other favourite gambits. Thanks
You aren't an e4 player as black.
You play 1..e5.

Yeah my bad I corrected the mistake now. So do you have any thoughts on gambits I can try here. Thanks
If that is the case can any one tell me some gambits black can play in the italian game, as vienna game usually transposes into an italian. Thanks
The only gambit black can play it the two knights defense, and it only works if white plays Ng5.
otherwise usually black doesn't play gambits.
Oh ok I see, thanks snudoo.
The Frankenstein Dracula, yes. I play that myself but white usually Doesn’t play Bc4 :(

Well, there is always the Latvian Gambit if White plays 2.Nf3.

Yeah but then it wouldn’t be a Vienna
What is your gambit on 1.e4 e5 2.Nf3?
Latvian and stafford. Don't laugh mr IM 
, trying to have some fun.
@Very late: Thanks that looks great.
Since I'm experienced at latvian gambit. May be I can play this dracula thing if next move from white is bishop c4 and if it is nf3 then go for a latvian. Only problem is I don't know if same latvian principle will hold well, after already having another white knight placed on c3.
Problem solved or is it?
If u try to go back to kind of latvian after 1.e4 e5 Nc3 Nf6 3.Nf3 f5, be ready for this miniature...
Trying to play gambits at all costs is a bad idea.
ok thanks im poucin. That was a nice game. I like it.
1 e4 e5 2 Nc3 Nc6 and then (with stats taken from a 2010-2020 database):
a) 3 Bc4 (37.5%) 3...f5!? (0%)
b) 3 g3 (30.2%) 3...f5!? (0.02%) intending 4 exf5 Nf6 5 g4 g6!
c) 3 f4 (13.4%) 3...exf4 (49.1%) intending 4 Nf3 g5, when 5 g3! is the same position as in 'b' but with reversed colours. The theoretical assessment is probably a draw, so it's legitimate to play it from both sides
d) 3 Nf3 (16.0%) heads for a Four Knights after 3...Nf6, though Black does have other options at move three.
EDIT: Sorry mistake what I meant was e5 player
