The Adhiban Gambit

I like it because it diverges from main line very early in the game therefore making it more likely to have a chance to try it in an actual game I think, but personally I don’t think I’d play it in a game over the board because it seems too risky for my style of play. I’m guessing if Black is playing for a win, it could be worth a try?

Computer seems to think it’s about +0.7 for white after 8...h5 (after 13...Qg6 its about +0.6), which seems to be a reasonable evaluation for Black for a gambit
