Vukovic Gambit

The Vukovic Gambit, also called the Fraser Defense, answers the attack on the c6-knight with 5...Bc5, leaving it en prise so that bishop and e4-knight can converge on f2. The usual reply is 6. dxc6 Bxf2+ 7. Ke2 Bb6 8. Qd5, after which both sides must find a string of precise moves around White's exposed king. The quieter 6. Be3 sidesteps this but is considered inferior. The engine rates the position roughly balanced, while Black scores heavily in practice.
