NB!  If you know about a BDG game which isn’t in the database already you are welcome to send it in a mail to sveinung@optimal-sikkerhet.no , but please remember the criteria for a game to be a part of this database :

 

1)      The opening should be Blackmar-Diemer Gambit

2)      One or both of the players should be a GM, IM, FM, CM, WGM, WIM, WFM, WCM – or both players should at least have ratings above 2000

3)      The game should preferably have been played in an official tournament
