      I did a lecture a few months ago on this line going over the game where Kasparov introduced it. I have had very good results with black with a more conservative line which I studied with Milan Vukadinov. I had several draws with black against 2400 or even 2500 players when I was a 2000 rated player.

          that was a great attack, thanks, the confidence to let material keep dropping en route is so impressive

            The Reference Library had a booklet in German on the Englund Gambit. It is a one-cheapo pony and I have a 0-5 score against local better players.
