London system: immediate E5 response to D4?
2.dxe5 is almost winning for white, but if u are lazy, why not 2.c3 to play a London with Bf4 next?
1. Sure, I could research the data bases but the London system is for lazy players and I’m, well, lazy.
2. I’m not inviting critiques on the system as a whole. If you’d like to critique the system, if you start your own thread I’d probably read it.
3. Thankee now.
That is known as the Englund Gambit and it is not too good for black. it works mainly in blitz or bullet against an unsuspecting opponent. But if white has any idea what is going on , it is generally bad for black.
Here's one idea- 1. d4 e5 2. dxe5 Nc6 3. Nf3 Qe7 4, Bg5 Qb4+ 5. Nc3 Qxb2 6. Bd2 Bb4 7. Rb1 Qa3 8. Nd5 Bxd2+ 9. Qxd2 Kd8 (hello king- nice to see you in broad daylight) 10. e4 with a CLEAR advantage to white.
I'm sure you've figured out where the opening book is in the last week, but just in case:

After 1 d4 e5 2 c3, what Black second move would make it a good idea to play 3 Bf4 ?
