Icelandic Gambit

intermediate
thechesswebsiteOpeningIcelandic gambit

The Icelandic Gambit is a very aggressive opening from black in the Scandinavian Defense. Black gives up a pawn in material for a big lead in development. White spends the game looking for a way to defend his king while black looks to employ many traps and swarm his opponent.
