Train it in TheoriaAbout the Keres Gambit
The Keres Gambit is a way for White to meet the central reply 2...e5 in the Grob Gambit. White does not defend the g-pawn and strikes with 3. d4. After 3...exd4, 4. c3 offers a further pawn to undermine Black's advanced d-pawn. If Black captures on c3, White can recapture with the knight and add pressure on d5 alongside the g2-bishop. Black stays a pawn up with doubled d-pawns, and the play is open and tactical.
