Danish Gambit In The Scotch Game

The point of this post is to (humorously as always) provide the reader with a surprise weapon for white in the Scotch Game. Even if you don't have the time to commit the theory to memory, It's still a worthwhile read for laughs if nothing else. Here it is.
Now I will give you a chance to see this plan put into action. Here is a game that was played against the Zappa 1.1 chess engine. if a 2800+ strength engine didn't see that it was lost after playing into one of my theoretical lines, then I doubt that any human would either. Here is the game.
I hope you enjoyed my post. Thanks for reading,
