  • But to be fair if it goes

    c4 qxb4

    xd5

    and white’s up a knight and just down a pawn plus queen is in danger so they have to move it

    As far as my beginner eyes see that’s a decent +2 advantage for white

    Alternatively if they take with knight, than white can threaten the queen and block the queens defens of the knight with c5

    Oh but I do see a line where you are correct.

    If it goes

    c4 Nxb4 c5 Qe7 h4 Na6

    though maybe the Knight ends up blocked in that position and potentially lost. I don’t have the vision too see that far.
