    Pretty good video, although the 8. d5 variation is actually pretty interesting against an unprepared opponent. Although it's easy to "refute" a gambit by following the most common moves and providing the best line, there will always be rarer sidelines that need to be given their due.
    Although the Alien Gambit isn't sound, there's certainly more venom to it than appears on the surface and "crushing" it based on the variations in this video alone is a tall task.

    Because c5 is one of if not the best computer lines, the reason why black wins most of the times may be just because in those games black seems to have actually studied the lines and not because its so superior though seems quite easy defend that way. Great video

    I've been wondering about this, because the Alien Gambit always seemed like a weird Fried Liver you can use against the Caro, but like, worse. I figured that being down a whole piece had to be bad, but I couldn't find it until now. Thanks!

    That video doesn't adress the main, critical line for white after black plays c5, which I won't tell because even if I don't play it, I think the Alien gambit is great and should remain strong and unpredictable
