1.d4 d5 2.e4!?

Submitted by EnGliSHCheSsPlAy on Tue, 02/05/2008 at 5:32am.

1.d4 d5 2.e4!? loool...what a strange move! 2...dxe4 that's the main line.

2...e6 that is french defense and 2...c6 is karo-kan defense..

After 2...dxe4 3.Nc3 Nf6 4.f3 (4.Bg5 is also possible) 4...exf3 5.Nxf3 and now if 5...Bg4 White can play 6.h3 Ah5 7.g4 Ag6 8.Ce5 and the position is not clear..

This line is not popular but it is interesting ...WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Isn't this also just a reverse Danish?

And while I play a half-danish that was recommended by Alekhine quite a bit (1.e4 e5 2.d4 exd4 3.c3 dxc3 4.Nxc3!), I think the full Danish and the full Blackmar are both unsound...

I play this line in blitz without having studied it but after 5...Bg4 i have not being playing 6.h3. Maybe i should in future. I wouldnt mind playing this line as White. The BD-Gambit is pretty useful i think. I tend to play it against Scandinavian players tho as i play 1.e4 d5 2.d4. I have good results with it and it suits my play i suppose, but im sure the BG - Gambit wouldnt be everyones choice. Honestly, I dont know much about it really because i only use it in blitz and i have not played against it as black as i play 1.d4 Nf6, and 1.e4 c5.
