Latvian Gambit, Leonhardt Variation
4...fxe4
Black threatens to play ...d5 with beautiful development and only a slightly misplaced queen to worry about. But /5. Nc3/ covers d5 and gains further time by hitting the e4-pawn. Rarely do such delicate works as Black's encounter such a robust spanner as 5. Nc3.
