Blackmar-Diemer Gambit (BDG) [edit]
2...dxe4 [edit]
White has given up his king's pawn, in hopes of an aggressive game. Since there is no way White can win a pawn back immediately, he can expect this set-up most times he plays the Blackmar-Diemar Gambit. The most respectful move for White would be Nc3, putting pressure on the e4 pawn. Sometimes Bc4 is played, in hope of trapping Black quickly with a variation of Scholar's Mate.
