I love playing the Blackmar-Diemer Gambit. I lose games but I also win too with smashing victories like the game below:

1.d4 d5 2.e4 dxe4 3.Nc3 Nf6 4.f3 exf3 (BDG Accepted) 5.Nxf3 e6 6.Bd3 (A new move for me. Normally I play 6.Bg5 here) 6…Be7 7.O-O Nbd7 8.Be3 c6 9.Qd2 O-O 10.Rae1 (Once again the BDG allows me to finish my development well ahead of my opponent) 10…b6 11.Ne5 Bb7 12.Ne4 Nxe4 13.Bxe4 Qc7 14.Qf2 Nf6 15.Bd3 Bd6 16.Qh4 Bxe5 (I beleive this is the point all the books call “the critical position” of the game) 17.Rxf6!!

After 17.Rxf6!

(The turning point of the game which puts me in a winning position) 17…Bxh2+ 18.Kh1 g6 19.Qxh2 Qd8 20.Ref1 Rc8  21.Bh6 Qd5 22.Bxf8 Rxf8 23.R1f2 Qxa2 24.Bf1 Qxb2 25.Qf4 Qa2 26.Rxf7 Black Resigns 1-0
