Alekhine's Defense uses endless tempi, moving the knight from place to place! Instead of losing it, however, black GAINS the initiative. White has given up a pawn to disrupt black's development, and a few positional or tactical tricks can allow white a better game after the initial price he pays. Play me a few theory lines, I'll show you how tricky the wizard gambit is
Wizard Gambit!

Then play me a game. if Nc6, Nf3, and you play to disrupt the knight's position. If d6, Qxd4, the trickiest line, and I think white has the edge, so I think Nc6 is the best line.

You tell the truth RoseQueen, hoawever, I encounter the 4 pawns quite often, also, I have found that it is quite fun to play, the only thing that annoys me is 2. Nc3 people, I transpose to the Vienna, but it is really annoying when I am looking for exchange Alekhine or 4 pawns, at least give me the 2 pawns
lol like paul said Qxd4 looses queen right away, if Kxd4 then dxe5, Kxc6, queen trade and black recaptures knight with better position

give the guy a break.If he thinks it works than let him use it.I think it's not a very good opening........but at least he is experimenting. The best thing i think 2 do if using the opening is don't push the pawn once blacks taken. Take him with your queen and then retreat as they will most likely play Nf6 to put pressure on ure queen. once u retreat ull be losing in development but controling the centre with ure pawn.
This fun little opening is something I invented. The play is based around dislodging the pawn at e5. Hard development for black, though he IS up a pawn. White, however, has some nasty tricks and can come out equal or better. Rarely does white come out behind unless he does something stupid like trading all his pieces early.
Here is a diagram to show you the Wizard Gambit! Discuss :)
Not bad. No GM games ever played this way. After 1.e4 e5 2.d4 exd4 3.e5 c5 4.Bc4 Nc6 5.Bf4
black is completely trapped in and underdeveloped.
However, if Black plays Bc5 to defend then white is behind. It only works if black moves pawn to c5

Honestly doesn't look that bad to me. I'd perhaps try it in a 15min game but still no tournament play.

Another thread had a OP arguing that in response to e4, Black should play d6, and then d5. This "wizardly" invention was as equally suspect as the current thread.
Why not just buy yourself a decent "Play Gambit Lines with White" book and make use of the 500 years that society has already invested in Romantic 19th century chess openings?
At least that way you can raise your rating above the 1100 range where it currently sits.
Lots of chess players start out playing double e-pawn openings and are entralled by the "amazing romantic tactics" contained therein. So what.
Tactics and endgame study (coupled with regular competition) will improve your game, (this we know). Inventing "new openings" is perhaps better left to the GMs. The last invention was probably by Kotov, et. al. in the 1950-60s of the Robatsch or "Modern Defense."
Of course, you can play almost anything at blitz or bullet speed, just witness the silliness around the "winnersp" and "bong cloud" threads.
Some threads assert their "newly invented opening" is a good one because it (somehow) induces the oppenent into making dumb moves?? What a nutty idea to assert.
Chess is great fun, but it's very easy to play badly. This we all know (and to often do). Inventing "new chess openings" is a will o' the wisp.
