	I think 4. e4 is stronger.

	When playing 1.d4 I also toyed with the idea of meeting 1...c5 with 2.dxc5 since most variations do seem favorable for White. However, I think S. Buecker (and perhaps others) have said that 2...e6 3.Nc3 Bxc5 4.Ne4 Bb4+ 5.c3 d5! should equalize.

	If you want to stay in gambit mode you could try 2.e4!? cxd4 3.c3 with a Morra Gambit. Of course, you have to be prepared for 3...Nf6(!) forcing a transposition to a 2.c3 Sicilian, but them's the breaks ...

	If sometimes we fly too close to the sun, at least this shows we are spreading our wings.

	Many players seem to play this move to get out of the BDG theory, I was wondering if anyone had any ideas about how to met this. I was thinking of dxc5, most of the positions in MCO and NCO give it unclear, and fritz gives a slight advantage to white.
