That's true but why try a speculative sac when you can gain an easy edge without trying

If the sac worked everyone would play it but they dont

The problem is that the Blackburn-Shilling is not played very often. So if people face an move they dont know the probally try to make priciple moves (which is fine) or think, or get anxious of the oponent. 

So Bxf7 is an near to nothing played answer to an only few played gambit. So it is not well known for its merrits.

And in my experience most of the people tend to play the same opening even if they lost beacause the oponent did find the reight moves on an dobius or bad line.

Yes I mean that's definitely a good bluff and very triable and even playable, but be careful if this is refuted because you should always take into consideration your opponent's best defense.

yes true, but if you study the Fischer article plus get helped by the engine I think you'll be able to play against it. Now sure, nobody likes to study a hole opening but this is some people's job so seems like it's doable

Very old well, not that much, and this is not very relevant because it's written by one of the best players of all times, so his ideas were probably more advanced
