Romantic Era: Beautiful Gambits
Compiled by Alpinemaster
--*--

Annotated games from the Romantic Era (c.1500 - c.1880). All are inspired Gambits with the true "win with fireworks or go down in flames trying" mentality. Excellent for honing a tactical, fighting style.

Muzio Gambit - Delayed
G Walker vs Cochrane, 1830 
(C38) King's Gambit Accepted, 24 moves, 1-0

The American Classic
Lipschutz vs Showalter, 1892
(A07) King's Indian Attack, 27 moves, 1-0

Rook and Roll
Showalter vs Lipschutz, 1892
(C62) Ruy Lopez, Old Steinitz Defense, 39 moves, 1-0

Modern but Magnificent. So much so, it made its way here!
Shirov vs J Lapinski, 1990 
(C37) King's Gambit Accepted, 17 moves, 1-0
