Evans Gambit Accepted Mainline

The principled main line of the Evans: Black accepts the b-pawn with ...Bxb4, retreats to a5, then returns the pawn with ...d6 after White builds the centre with c3 and d4. White gets rapid development and a strong centre in exchange for the gambit pawn - a romantic-era weapon that still bites today.
