Kostić Gambit Shilling Gambit
The Blackburne Shilling Gambit or the Schilling-Kostić gambit is the name facetiously given to a dubious chess opening, derived from an offshoot of the Italian Game, that begins:
1. e4 e5
2. Nf3 Nc6
3. Bc4 Nd4?!
It is also sometimes referred to as the Kostić Gambit after the Serbian grandmaster Borislav Kostić, who played it in the early 20th century.[1]
