Alnwick Gambit

In Alnwick Gambit, Black sacrifices a Bishop, and wins the game.

1. e4, e5
2. Ne2, d5
3. exd5, Qxd5
4. Nc3, Qa5
5. d4, Nc6
6. d5, Nb4
7. Bd2 ....

Not 7. h3, a useless move in view of Black Queen's pin on White's Rook.

7. .... Bf5
8. Rc1 ....

White is forced to defend the beleaguered pawn at c2.

8. .... Bxc2
9. Rxc2, Nd3 mate
