This is not the point MNB. I know some 2100 OTB players who are 2600 GM by correspondance...
With the Lemberger, Black only wants to demonstrate comfortable equality, eg with prospects of outplaying the opponent and eventually win.
Of course, White argues he can prove the opposite !
This is a practical approach when accepting the pawn, I agree, could be better -By the way, this is what you and Bonsai are trying to demonstrate- but that means giving the BDG player what he seeks and believes in.
I found no game in my 4M° base, including the Chessbase correspondance games, with Patrik's 7.Bc4.
So I want clear things out with this 4.Nge2 line. (since it is very difficult to take 4.Nxe4 exd4 or 4...Qxd4 5.Bd3 Nc6 seriously) and publish the game in the section.
May the BDG fan not despair, I am also ready to do the same with the accepted version provided that it matches the sequence 1.d4 d5 2.Bg5 f6 3.Bf4 only move 3...e5!? 4.dxe5
