Recently, I have got reacquainted with an old chess friend. 
He moved away from Denver about 7 years ago, but we have been playing correspondence chess over the internet. He was undefeated for those years in Denver. Not any more,  thanks to the BDG! 
3 in a Row! Here is the latest game.

I don't play chess well, but the BDG has put a well needed punch in my game. 
I do enjoy this opening quite a bit! If only I can find a black opening that is just as much fun.

Maybe you can play the Scandinavian defense. Most of the time, you can play your opening, and you don´t have to spend much time in the first moves, since they are usually always the same (and it´s difficult to get a lost position early in the game). I´m talking about the Modern Scandinavian with Qxd5 and then Qa5.

 
Playing the Scandinavian, sometimes you can also get BDGs from the Black point of view.

Thanks Social Panda, I might do that. grin.png 

Here is another one from today.

Paleface (Anti-INDIAN BDG) Attack

 

A1Rajjpuut vs. N.N. (inexperienced player) @ chess.com

 

1.d4                 Nf6      with Indian positions to follow -- unless dissuaded

2.f3                  d5        Many, not only Gruenfeld players, will adopt this line

3.e4                 dxe4

4.Nc3              exf3     You’re 290% more likely to arrive here in BDG Land 

                                    after 2. f3 than following 2. Nc3 which will have you

                                    playing the weaker Hubsch Gambit almost every time

                                    Black varies from Indian lines.

 

5.Nxf3             Bg4     The Teichmann Variation of the BDG, my favorite

6.h3                 Bxf3

7.Qxf3             Nc6     Black usually plays 7. c6 and gets a far stronger game

8.Bb5              . . .        8. d5 is more popular for White, but this is far stronger

8 . . .                Qd6

9.d5                 Qe5+  9. a6 is frequent -- White would respond with 10. Bf4

10.Be3             Nxd5  Black’s inexperience and two less-than-sterling earlier

moves  has put him in a pickle

11.Nxd5          Rd8

12.O-O-O           a6     Only now is a6 played

13.Bf4                         and Bf4 is even more powerful       

13 . . .              Qf5

14.Nxc7#     1-0

The game in an easier way to watch wink.png

some nice short games i had with the Blackmar-Diemer, von Popiel Gambit

It started as a BDG, but I don't know if it transposed, or its just giving blacks defense as the opening. Either way, it was a fun #underdog win for me.

Game was played this week on ChessWithFriends app on my phone.
My first win against him.

It has been quite some time since I played the BDG... starting to get back into it lately. I forgot just how quickly Black can go wrong. happy.png ... this was a 24hr/move game.

A wild game in the Lembergher Defense. I was asked about this line recently, and said I'd offer an example of the Nxe4 approach.

 

I checked my sac to see if it was sound. It nearly was (-.40). Missed a forced queen trade with best play. White can simply collect a +0.5 advantage with 7.Nxf6 followed by Qxd4. After the queens and pieces are traded, White has the pawn back and the bishop pair.

However, after Ke6 instead of Kg8, White is winning.

my latest game against a 2015 rated player who after being defeated by a mere 1800 player was gracious enough to accuse me of using an engine..

David, don´t you like the more usual line?

 

-BEES-

Goes without saying but Kxf7 would've lost in a more fun way but oh well. Still posting it!

Social panda, i do prefer the main line d4 d5, but in my game black played d4 Nf6, so you have to play f3 or Nc3 to try to transpose to the BDG, Diemer have come with this idea of playing f3 after Nf6

Nice.

Bogoljubow - not the cleanest (it was bullet), but a cool mate
 
Bogoljubow - much more solid
 
Bogo yet again.

I used to play the long Bogo but had 3 straight losses against 2300s. Two were Scandi players who knew nothing about the gambit but easily found critical moves. One of them is a sparring partner on a server I'm on. Many people on this server believe g6 to be the most critical try against the BDG and in my experience that seems to be holding true.
