Clear equality for Black is a bust as far as I am concerned 

Also the fact that White always has to be trying to prove equality is not a good sign.

On a side note, this is just another reason why correspondence chess does not appeal to me, its way too slow and tedious.

okay, Eric,

That was way harsh. I was merely arguing that the BDG is not as easily busted as one would hope, and I have argued elsewhere that 4. Qh5 is not the best move, and I would play 4. Nge2 if I wanted to get a whole point. I just did not agree with your analysis that 4. Qh5 was dead.

Now we are going to talk about my appeals to Gary Lane, and your GM opinions of the position.

In your Hubsch variation there are two ways for white to handle it. One is a forced draw by repetition and the other is a balanced but absolutely equal position throughout the game, neither are complete busts.

But I do admire and respect your opinion Eric, so if you are ready to do battle, I shall have to engage you once again.

Peace out,

Hello. I was "out" for couple of days. Yesterday I have analysed our position. It is difficult but there are some very hopeful signs I´m on a good way to bring a whole point. But you´re playing really good. Bloody good. I always like when my opponents are playing the strongest moves, it is pleasure. Nbd7! was the best one, comparing to weak e6. But now I´m preparing deadly attack, yes, you guessed it right. Horrific and terrific. I´m going to check all my analysis and hope to send the move on Friday, maybe even sooner. BDG is very difficult to play as we have almost critical position now. But after playing this move I will be playing faster. In my analysis I dive not less than to the move 20 and even deeper. Seeking clear +/-. There is no BDG bust on the horizon. And there is no soap opera within my sight (Top Notch), it is rather real drama.

I love it ROTFL!!

Whose move is it anyway in this Soap Opera?

I thought that the definitive refutation of the Sneiders attack, missed by Black during the game of reference, but published as a note in it (1.d4 d5 2.e4 ?!  2...dxe4 3.Nc3 e5 4.Qh5 Nc6 5.dxe5 Bb4 6.Bd2 g6 7.Qe2 Nd4 8.Qd1 Bf5 9.Be3 c5!!) would have put Teyko to silence...

Since then, his pathetic attempts (leading him to beg the 'little' help of his friend Master Lane ;o)) posted here and there, on how to get a playable position out of the Hubsch (1.d4 Nf6 2.Nc3 d5 3.e4 A blunder this time, giving a central pawn for nothing from which White cannot recover 3...Nxe4! 4.Nxe4 dxe4) have all failed miserably, to the point that, in a glimpse of lucidity, he even asked me for a piece of advice on how to drop out from BDG addiction and start playing chess!
I benevolently replied under the form of 3.Bg5 Nbd7 4.Qd3.

From what I have seen, Patrik Shoupal is the only intitled person on this forum to be able to launch a challenge against the Lemberger because, at least, he has got something against the Lemberger with his 4.Nge2. During june I shall take up the gauntlet and prove that Black has minimum -/+...

Me, excessive like a gambit player, would you think ?  

MNB,

I thought my draw against G.M Prie would have been enough to silence the "wanna-be busts" to the Blackmar Diemar Gambit. I have been reading your posts, but I did not reply because I knew you were trying to bring me out from hiding.

I think you should play Patrik, but if you lose, I don't want to hear you crying.

Yes, I have noticed the transposition, but was not sure. Still I will take some time, to check if Black can deviate.
