  • @st1nos
    @st1nos 3 года назад +10

    i love this gambit. i play it all the time with white and don't really mind if it transitions into a french or caro. however, on my level people usually accept which always leads to fun, aggressive lines. i esp. love the ryder gambit with 5...Qxf3, even though you say it's bad. it's clearly unsound but on intermediate level not many people know how to play against it correctly and it offers fun potential like the halosar trap or some really quick mates with the knight and rook on open d-file after castling long :)

    • @mica-elbey6825
      @mica-elbey6825 Год назад

      If black brings out their white square Bishop after dxe to protect the e pawn. When you push the f pawn and and he takes, that is the only time you should play the ryder. You win a tempo automatically, plus depending on what you do from there, you can ruin their castling opportunities. The ryder is really tricky, especially at higher levels.

    Wait the position at 24:30 looks very much like a Tarrasch Variation French Defense or maybe a 3...dxe4 variation. Both are playable for black, so why is this not just good for black? Is it that the knight is pinned that makes the big difference?

    Great video! Very instructive. I didn't expect a video on this opening whatsoever, but I'm glad you made it, because I didn't know there was so much going for white in the Blackmar-Diemer gambit, because there aren't that many comprehensive resources on this available on RUclips. Will you also do a video on the Englund Gambit (perhaps for your "Dubious Gambits" series)? I'm really curious as to whether or not there's anything going for black in that gambit besides the couple of (refutable) traps with 3... Qe7 4. Bf4 or the one where you try to sacrifice the knight on e7.

    This can also be reached with the exchange variation of the French. 1. e4 e6 2. d4 d5 3. nc3 exd5 4. f3 exf3 5. nxf3. This variation locks in blacks' white squared bishop and so it's better for white than the main line. You can also enter the main line with e4 d5 2. d4

    Yay BDG!
    It's interesting that you say that you must be a good 1.e4 player in order to play the BDG, because I was definitely NOT an e4 player when I was using the BDG. However, because of the kinds of positions and play that arise from typical BDG play, it actually prepared me to switch from 1.d4 to 1.e4, and now I play 1.e4 (I will still transpose to the BDG if my opponent plays the Scandi).
    I think that the BDG is a great tool in this regard! If you learn to play it, then you also learn a certain ethos common to 1.e4 openings.

    Great video, thanks a lot! One question though: Do you still think that 4. ...Bf5 is a sub-optimal move if it is followed up by 5. fxe4 Nxe4 6. Qf3 Nxc3? One possible continuation is 7. bxc3 e6 8. Qxb7 Nd7. In this position, I would prefer to play with black and indeed the computer thinks black has a slight advantage. I would like to see your opinion on the position after move 6, as I am only a 1200 player :)

    In case of Bf5, transpose into the von popiel with the Bishop on g5 to negate the knight, being a secondary defender of the e pawn. I'm crazy though, If I don't play the French with black, I aim for the soller gambit, which is basically a blackmar in reverse. In both case's, I actually castle king side and I never attack with any king side pawns. I just orient my minor piece's. Great video, e5 is definitely an agitating response to this gambit.

    A bdg player plays 3.Be3 against the french. And 4.Bc4 transposing to the Ziegler variation if black plays ...3.dxe4 in the caro-kann, which is the main line. Also in the Lamberger, after 4.Qh5, Qxd4, is much better for white to play 5.Be3!? followed by Rd1 gaining tempo on the queen, with initiative. It's a full time job to cover the BDG. Please referr to Christoph Scheerer's book on it.

    The Blackmar-Diemer is partly named after Emil Josef Diemer - a true madman both on and off the board. I have featured a few games of Mr. Diemer on my channel which you can check out here: ruclips.net/video/2oDrYVFLYzw/видео.html. He played this near exclusively in his chess career. "The Blackmar Gambit changes the man" according to him and it certainly show as the man went insane... Enjoy with caution!

    7:25 *1.d4 d5 2.e4 dxe4 3.Nc3 e5 4.Qh5* isn't "bad" as stated, at lower levels. It actually PERFORMS best at 57% wins to 39% losses. Computers see complicated stuff humans don't. I see MANY lines StockFish recommends up to 2 points best as LOSING over the board to "weaker" lines.
    27:36 *1.d4 d5 2.e4 dxe4 3.Nc3 Nf6 4.f3 exf3 5.Nxf3 Bf5 6.Ne5* is frowned on, but scores best at 57% to 39%

    You can have nice games against Gunderam defense simply play bishop d3 trade play bishop g5 and castle queen side and start attack on the king side if black castles there. In blackmar you dont castle kingside in many variations and play passive chess. Love your videos btw they are best and really helpful👌
