Latvian Gambit does NOT destroy all.

Latvian gambit is useful against stronger opponents too. At least in OTB games. Also In RHP I have lost only one LG game - to jimster who was banned for cheating (engine use).

Why did they resign? 😕

EDIT: Never mind. I didn't look at the position well enough. 😳

His ignorance is his own problem.

Btw. I`m gonna restart playing Kings gambit in OTB, so I`ll play this opening in RHP too 😀

Was a bit fast though - DD doesn't hang around & I think he'd be 1650+ if he slowed down a bit.
Also not sure how common the KS fianchetto is in a Latvian but controlling the long light-square diagonal proved useful in that game.
