About this opening
The Krejcik Gambit (1.d4 f5 2.g4) answers the Dutch with an immediate wing pawn sacrifice: White offers g4 to deflect the f5 pawn and open lines toward the black king. The idea is sharp and destabilizing, but weakens White's position; precise defense leaves Black with an advantage. It is a surprise weapon, especially effective in fast play.
