On this page I display links to my chess games in which I played either
side of the
Blackmar-Diemer Gambit. The games include analysis and diagrams. I will
place the actual games on separate pages listed by the opponent played.
The Blackmar-Diemer Gambit is an opening in which White
sacrifices a pawn in order to get pressure on Black's f7 square. Although
the move order can vary, the opening usually goes something like this:
1. d4 d5 2. e4 dxe4 3. f3

Black can accept the gambit pawn by playing 3... exf3 or
decline with moves like 3... Bf5 or 3... Nf6. If the gambit is
accepted then White can recapture with either 4. Qxf3 or 4. Nxf3.

Position after 4. Qxf3

Position after 4. Nxf3
White usually continues with Bc4 and 0-0 which puts some pressure on f7.
