Hello everyone,

Recently I have been made a joke with people playing this against me. I don't need anything fancy, can anyone show me easiest least to memorize ( diagrams would be appreciated rather than coordinates). a way to equalize as black, I like the first move in falkbeer counter gambit, but after that it becomes messy for me. Thanks a lot.

Study the Kings Gambit Declined (2...Bc5).  Most Kings Gambit books can cover this in a single chapter and it is simple to play.

 

Only down side is that it is equal rather than better for black, but if you are ok with equal, it is a lot simpler than accepting the gambit.
