BDG Bg5 Von Popiel Attack Graif

White gains an opening advantage with a Von Popiel Attack 4.Bg5. After 4…Bf5 5.f3, the game resembled a Blackmar-Diemer Gambit. Black wasted tempi by taking the c2 pawn on move six. White won significant material in the blitz game between William Graif and Zala Urh. Black’s uncastled king became the target for a checkmate.

  1. This line goes into the Blackmar - Diemer Gambit, Vienna Defense, by transposition.
