In this video, I provide a recommendation for what to play as white against Petroff Defense or Stafford Gambit players. I show the line starting with 3.Bc4!? known as the Boden-Kieseritzky Gambit (which essentially invites a reverse Stafford Gambit). The opening features some sweet traps, where if black isn't careful, white can get a winning advantage in less than 10 moves! Towards the end of the video, I also show how the Stafford Gambit can potentially transpose into a Halloween Gambit! I hope viewers can learn something this video... if you have questions, don't hesitate to comment below!
