White voluntarily loses a tempo in a development gambit? That is a sign, that he is in trouble. I will take a look at it - something with e7-e5. White's play is at any rate very simple and crystal clear, also known in the Austrian Attack and the Grand Prix Attack.


I do not think White is in trouble. All I am doing is preventing the annoying ...Bg4, which exchanges the powerful Nf3. Here is a game I played on the Internet Chess Club recently.

Zilbermints (2117)  - iliabluv (2023)
ICC 5 0 rated blitz
July 11, 2005

1 d4 d5 2 e4 de4 3 Nc3 Nf6 4 f3 exf3 5 Nxf3 g6 6 Bc4 Bg7 7 00 00 8 h3! Nbd7 9 Qe1 Nb6 10 Bb3 c6 11 Qh4 Bf5 12 Bh6 Nbd5 13 Ng5 

Here I have the desired set- up. The h3-pawn prevents ...Bg4, whilst at the same time preparing
g4! for White.

13...Ne3 14 Rf3 Nxc2  15 Bxc2 Bxc2 16 Bxg7 Kxg7 17 Rxf6! Kxf6 18 Rf1+ Bf5 19 Nce4, Black resigns, 1- 0. 

Just an example of the power of 8 h3! .

The book had the effect good books usually have: it made the stupids more stupid, the intelligent more intelligent and the other thousands of readers remained unchanged.

BDG: 8 h3! IN BOGOLJUBOW DEFENSE

Hello, all,

I am starting a new topic: 8 he in the Bogoljubow Defense to the BDG. Perhaps this should be called the Zilbermints Variation of the Studier Attack? Let me illustrate the difference:

* REGULAR STUDIER ATTACK *

1 d4 d5 2 e4 de4 3 Nc3 Nf6 4 f3 exf3 5 Nxf3 g6 6 Bc4 Bg7 7 00 00 8 Qe1 (Studier Attack) Bg4 9 h3 Bxf3 10 Rxf3 Nc6 11 Be3 e5

**ZILBERMINTS VARIATION**

5...g6 6 Bc4 Bg7 7 00 00 8 h3! avoids the dangerous ...Bg4 lines. In this line, there might follow
8...Nbd7 9 Qe1 Nb6 10 Bb3 c6  11 Qh4  with upcoming 
Bh6-Ng5-g4!

I have played and analyzed this line for many years now. Some of my analyses appeared in Blackmar-Diemer Gambit Keybook II (1999) written by Timiothy Sawyer.

Feel free to comment.
