Overview
Blackmar-Diemer Gambit Accepted: Bogoljubow Defense, Mad Dog Attack is a sacrificial opening line filed under ECO D00 in the Closed & Semi-Closed Games group. The defining idea is the early concession of material to seize the initiative and unbalance the position.
The Closed & Semi-Closed Games group covers closed and semi-closed games — 1.d4 systems characterised by long strategic manoeuvring rather than early tactics.
Play reaches this position via 1. d4 d5 2. e4 dxe4 3. Nc3 Nf6 4. f3 exf3 5. Nxf3 g6 6. Bc4 Bg7 7. h4, after 13 plies of opening development.
