Overview

Chess Chronicles is a chess book of games mostly on the Blackmar-Diemer Gambit from 2023 If you want to see recent chess games played with the Blackmar-Diemer Gambit and a few other chess openings, you may find this book helpful. This collection of 50 games has 105 diagrams. Most were played that year, and many by titled players. My analysis seeks to be informative and entertaining. I may criticize moves, but I try not to criticize the players. I hope to help you to understand the thought processes behind certain moves. If you're a fan of the BDG, or if you're looking to expand your chess repertoire, or if you're looking to refine your skills, you may enjoy this book. The Blackmar-Diemer Gambit (BDG) is a chess opening that starts with the moves 1.d4 d5 2.e4 dxe4 3.Nc3 Nf6 4.f3. White offers a pawn in exchange for a better position. The idea behind the BDG is to seize control of the center of the board and put pressure on Black's position. The BDG can lead to sharp tactics. While the BDG is not a popular opening at the highest levels of chess, it is a good choice for players who enjoy aggressive and tactical play. It is also a good way for White to surprise Black and catch them unprepared. However, the BDG requires a good understanding of chess strategy and a willingness to take risks, as White's pawn structure may be compromised in the opening if Black accepts the gambit. I played chess for 50 years. I have written over 100 books. I assume that you can read algebraic chess notation. The diagrams have White at the bottom of the board. Thank you for reading my books. I hope you like this one! Tim Sawyer, Author
