The Göring Gambit is a
The Göring Gambit is a very aggressive, highly provocative and slightly unsound continuation for white. He gives up a full pawn for development and an attempt for a deadly initiative.

When looking for a complicated and unexpected line against e5 players, the Göring Gambit seems like a very natural choice. White gives up a pawn to provoke black into helping to develop the white minor pieces with tempo, thus creating an attacking setup which can prove terminal for the black king.
Black has ways of declining the gambit and entering a peaceful position if he chooses to, but according to theory and to the engines, the pawn should be taken! Human chess is another thing. Practice has shown that the positions arising after the gambit is accepted can be very tricky for black to defend, and you basically get a position which is much easier to play for white.
Black has to be extremely careful and precise, otherwise he can get in a lost position in a matter of moves, while on the other hand, white can hardly go wrong as he has superior development and numerous attacking moves to choose from.
The Göring Gambit can be refuted with perfect play, though, which is why you rarely see it on the highest levels. With solid defensive play, if black manages to develop and doesn’t allow white to overrun him, he should have a solid extra pawn and a better structure to enter a late middlegame with.
Still, it should not be neglected as a tricky surprise weapon hard for black to deal with!
