I've just had a look at the ChessPub Guide and I think that must be 7.Qxf3 instead of 7.Nxf3, so I've edited the original post. Wink
Answering the original question: can you call a line an x pawn gambit if you have won a piece for the pawns?

If 9. Rh2, then does Black not just play 9...Bxd1 and win the queen?

In the Vienna Defence to the BDG, after the moves:

      1 d4 d5 2 e4 dxe4 3 Nc3 Nf6 4 f3 Bf5 5 g4 Bg6 6 h4 exf3 7 Nxf3 c6 8 h5 Bxc2 9 Rh2 Qxd4 10 Be3 Qxg4 11 Rxc2 Qxh5  12 Qxh5 Nxh5 13 000 Nd7  the critical position arises.

Now, in his 2011 book, on page 123, Scheerer gives the passive 14 Nf3? whereupon Black consolidates.
I have written earlier here that 14 Nb5!! is the shot that gives White all the attacking chances.

So, should this line of the Vienna be called Hara-Kiri, Five Pawn Gambit?

 


No. It should be called the transparent Nf3 gambit. As far as I can tell 12.Qxh5 is slightly illegal. You might consider posting such lines only in pgn format.
