I would like to hear your thoughts on the Blackmar Diemar Gambit and how I should have played the game. I would also like to see your own games in this opening and how you handled it. A good way to transpose from 1.d4 Nf6 is 2.f3 d5 3. e4 dxe4 4. Nc3. The Deep Shredder evaluation for the starting position is (-0.29). The Deep Shedder evaluation for the King's Gambit is (-0.09). Thats pretty damn good and I think its a perfectly playable opening that gets you the initiative quickly. Lets see what you guys can do in this opening. Thanks for looking at my game and I hope you try this opening if you haven't already.

The Blackmar Diemar Gambit is hardly a gambit in some lines and is a darn good opening.

Computers are terrible at evaluation openings. Why do you think they have such large opening books. BDG is fun, practical for OTB but probably not the "best" from a strict analytical standpoint. I've only played it casually so finding the old games will be difficult. I assume you talking about how to play as White?
